[0001] This application relates to the field of airdrop equipment technology, and more specifically, to a single-mounted airdrop device with charging and discharging functions. Background Technology

[0002] An airdropper is a specialized device used by drones to accurately release supplies in the absence of a landing site. It uses GPS positioning and attitude control systems to ensure delivery accuracy.

[0003] A single-mounted airdropper is an airdrop device designed specifically for drones. It is mainly used for single-use delivery of supplies or equipment. It is usually made of carbon fiber or aluminum alloy and features lightweight and high strength. It can achieve precise delivery through remote control.

[0004] In practice, it has been found that existing airdrop devices require an igniter to trigger the throwing mechanism to achieve the release operation. However, the igniter needs to release high-intensity energy in a short period of time to complete the reliable operation. The conventional power supply system of the airdrop device is battery powered, and the battery usually outputs low power continuously, which is difficult to directly meet the instantaneous high power demand of the igniter, thus affecting the reliability of the throwing operation. In view of this, we propose a single-mounted airdrop device with charging and discharging functions. Summary of the Invention

[0021] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 This application discloses a single-mounted airdrop device with charging and discharging functions, including a shell 1, a drive component 2, and a fixing component 3. The drive component 2 is fixedly disposed on the outside of the shell 1 to generate power. The fixing component 3 is disposed on the outside of the shell 1 to fix the object to be thrown and is driven by the drive component 2 to perform the throwing operation. The top of the shell 1 is provided with a shell cover 11, and an installation cavity is formed between the shell 1 and the shell cover 11. The installation cavity is provided with a throwing controller 12, a charging and discharging module 13, an indicator light 14, a discharging interface 15, a power interface 16, and a control signal interface 17. The discharging interface 15 is electrically connected to the charging and discharging module 13, and the output end of the discharging interface 15 passes through the shell 1 to be connected to an external device. The control signal interface 17 is electrically connected to the throwing controller 12, and the output end of the control signal interface 17 passes through the shell 1 to be connected to an external component. The power interface 16 is electrically connected to the throwing controller 12 to connect an external power source to power the throwing controller 12. The throwing controller 12 is electrically connected to the charging and discharging module 13, and the charging and discharging module 13 is electrically connected to the indicator light 14.

[0023] The single-mounted airdrop device forms an overall support frame through the outer shell 1. The top cover 11 of the device and the outer shell 1 enclose the mounting cavity to form an installation cavity. The cavity integrates core electrical components such as the throwing controller 12, the charging and discharging module 13, and the indicator light 14. Externally, the throwing function is realized through the drive component 2 and the fixing component 3. During use, the throwing controller 12 is powered by the power interface 16, and the airdrop device is controlled by the control signal interface 17. At the same time, the throwing controller 12 controls the charging and discharging module 13 to charge its own capacitor. After the capacitor is fully charged, it can be controlled to discharge to the outside for a short time to provide sufficient power for the igniter and maintain the reliability of the igniter. The indicator light 14 is used to provide feedback on the working status of the charging and discharging module 13, such as the power level and the charging and discharging progress. The module discharges through the discharge interface 15. When the control signal interface 17 receives an external command, the throwing controller 12 drives the drive component 2, which in turn controls the fixing component 3 to complete the throwing operation.

[0024] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The drive assembly 2 includes a fixed base 21, which is fixedly disposed on the outside of the housing 1. A servo motor 22 is fixedly disposed on the inside of the fixed base 21. A drive arm 23 is disposed on the drive end of the servo motor 22. A connecting arm 24 is hinged to the other end of the drive arm 23. The other end of the connecting arm 24 is hinged to the fixed assembly 3. The fixed assembly 3 includes a movable insert rod 31, which is slidably disposed on the inside of the fixed base 21. The end of the movable insert rod 31 near the fixed base 21 is rotatably connected to the connecting arm 24. A buckle 32 is slidably disposed on the outside of the movable insert rod 31. A Velcro tape 33 is fixedly disposed on the outside of the buckle 32. The other end of the Velcro tape 33 is detachably connected to the housing 1. The end of the Velcro tape 33 away from the movable insert rod 31 passes through one end of the housing 1 and then folds back to adhere to itself. The size of the fixed space and the clamping force formed between the Velcro tape 33 and the housing 1 are different depending on the adhesion position. The buckle 32 is convex, that is, a protrusion is provided on the top. The protrusion is slidably disposed on the outside of the movable insert rod 31.

[0025] When throwing an object, the output shaft of the servo motor 22 is rotated by the throwing controller 12, which drives the drive arm 23 to rotate, and then drives the movable rod 31 to slide horizontally through the connecting arm 24. When the movable rod 31 passes through the buckle 32 and forward through the fixing hole, it can fix the Velcro tape 33. When the movable rod 31 moves backward out of the fixing hole, it can release the Velcro tape 33, thereby releasing the thrown object. During this movement, the buckle 32 adopts a structure with protrusions to prevent the buckle 32 from slipping sideways. The other end of the Velcro tape 33 on the buckle 32 passes through the outer shell 1 and then folds back and sticks to itself. By changing the sticking position, the length of the tape can be adjusted, thereby changing the size of the fixed space formed between the tape and the outer shell 1 and the clamping force to adapt to the thrown objects of different weights and sizes.

[0026] In summary, the single-mounted airdrop device with charging and discharging function disclosed in this application, when in use, forms an overall support frame through the outer shell 1. The top cover 11 of the device and the outer shell 1 enclose the mounting cavity to form an installation cavity. The cavity integrates core electrical components such as the throwing controller 12, the charging and discharging module 13, and the indicator light 14. Externally, the throwing function is realized through the drive component 2 and the fixing component 3. During use, the throwing controller 12 is powered by the power interface 16, and the airdrop device is controlled by the control signal interface 17. At the same time, the throwing controller 12 controls the charging and discharging module 13 to charge its own capacitor. After the capacitor is fully charged, it can be controlled to discharge to the outside for a short time to provide sufficient power for the igniter and maintain the reliability of the igniter's operation. The indicator light 14 is used to provide feedback on the working status of the charging and discharging module 13, such as the power level and charging and discharging progress, and discharge is controlled through the discharge interface 15. When the control signal interface 17 receives an external command, the throwing controller 12 drives the drive component 2, which in turn controls the fixed component 3 to complete the throwing operation. When throwing an item, the throwing controller 12 controls the output shaft of the servo motor 22 to rotate, which drives the drive arm 23 to rotate, and then drives the movable rod 31 to slide horizontally through the connecting arm 24. When the movable rod 31 passes through the buckle 32 and forward through the fixing hole, it can fix the Velcro tape 33. When the movable rod 31 moves backward out of the fixing hole, it can release the Velcro tape 33, thereby releasing the thrown object. During this movement, the buckle 32 adopts a structure with protrusions to prevent the buckle 32 from sliding sideways. The other end of the Velcro tape 33 on the buckle 32 passes through the outer shell 1 and then folds back and sticks to itself. By changing the sticking position, the length of the tape can be adjusted, thereby changing the size of the fixed space formed with the outer shell 1 and the clamping force to adapt to the thrown objects of different weights and sizes.
