Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drone target drone recovery technology, specifically to a rotary docking rod for drone target drone recovery and a drone. Background Technology
[0002] Target drones are a type of military aircraft used for shooting training. These aircraft use remote control or pre-set flight paths and patterns to simulate enemy aircraft or incoming missiles during military exercises or weapons tests, providing hypothetical targets and firing opportunities for various types of artillery or missile systems. They belong to the category of unmanned aerial vehicles.
[0003] Existing technologies can use parachute recovery, which uses a parachute system to decelerate the target drone and land it. It is often used in conjunction with an airbag shock absorption system to reduce the impact. The landing accuracy of this recovery method is affected by wind shear. Water recovery requires rapid retrieval and corrosion prevention, and repeated use requires maintenance of the parachute and airbag.
[0004] Alternatively, a net-collision recovery method can be used, in which a target drone is guided to collide with a barrier net and is slowed down by the net and energy absorption device. However, the guidance accuracy of this recovery method decreases in bad weather, the net area is limited, multi-drone recovery requires a complex folding mechanism, and the impact may damage the structure of the drone.
[0005] Vertical takeoff and landing recovery can also be used, with target drones having vertical takeoff and landing capabilities, and hovering landing achieved by using rotors or appropriate thrust. However, due to the addition of a vertical propulsion system, the cost of aircraft using this recovery method is high, and the cruise efficiency is lower than that of fixed-wing aircraft. Utility Model Content
[0006] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the problem that the target drone is severely affected by weather conditions and has high cost during recovery in the prior art, thereby providing a rotating docking rod for recovering drone target drones and the drone itself.
[0007] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a rotating docking rod for recovering unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) target drones, comprising: a vertical rod having a first fixed end and a second fixed end, the first fixed end being provided with a fixed seat; a first rotating mechanism connecting the vertical rod and the fixed seat, the first rotating mechanism driving the vertical rod to rotate relative to the fixed seat; a horizontal rod disposed at the second fixed end and connected to the vertical rod via the second rotating mechanism, the horizontal rod having a first position located within the vertical rod and a second position perpendicular to the vertical rod; a locking mechanism disposed within the vertical rod, the locking mechanism being used to lock the horizontal rod in the second position; and a sliding mechanism disposed at the bottom of the fixed seat.
[0008] Furthermore, the first rotating mechanism includes: a first flat motor, which is disposed on one side of the fixed base and inserted into the vertical rod; and a pin, which is symmetrically disposed on the other side of the fixed base and inserted into the vertical rod.
[0009] Furthermore, the second rotating mechanism includes: a second flat motor, which is disposed on one side of the vertical rod and inserted into the square groove of the horizontal rod; and a pin, which is symmetrically disposed on the other side of the vertical rod and inserted into the horizontal rod.
[0010] Furthermore, the locking mechanism includes: a servo motor disposed inside the vertical rod; and a slider connected to the servo motor, the slider having a disengaged position and a locked position abutting against the horizontal rod, the servo motor driving the slider to change from the disengaged position to the locked position, and locking the horizontal rod in the second position.
[0011] Furthermore, the outer wall of the crossbar is provided with a groove, and when the slider is in the locked position, it is inserted into the groove.
[0012] Furthermore, bearings are provided at the connection points between the pin and the vertical rod.
[0013] Furthermore, the sliding mechanism includes: two slide rails arranged symmetrically, the slide rails being disposed inside the machine body; a sliding member disposed on the slide rails, the fixed seat being disposed on the sliding member; and a connecting seat located between the two slide rails and connected to the fixed seat, the fixed seat being connected to the push-pull motor.
[0014] Furthermore, it also includes a wiring structure, which includes: a receiving hole located inside the pin; a wiring hole located on the side wall of the vertical rod; and a wiring groove located on the inner wall of the vertical rod, wherein the wire is used to pass through the receiving hole and / or the wiring hole and reach the wiring groove.
[0015] Furthermore, both the vertical and horizontal bars are made of aluminum alloy.
[0016] This utility model also provides a drone, including the aforementioned rotating docking rod for drone target recovery.
[0017] The technical solution of this utility model has the following advantages:
[0018] The present invention provides a rotating docking rod for recovering unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) target drones, comprising: a vertical rod having a first fixed end and a second fixed end, the first fixed end being provided with a fixed seat; a first rotating mechanism connecting the vertical rod and the fixed seat, the first rotating mechanism driving the vertical rod to rotate relative to the fixed seat; a horizontal rod disposed at the second fixed end and connected to the vertical rod via the second rotating mechanism, the horizontal rod having a first position located within the vertical rod and a second position perpendicular to the vertical rod; a locking mechanism disposed within the vertical rod, the locking mechanism being used to lock the horizontal rod in the second position; and a sliding mechanism disposed at the bottom of the fixed seat.
[0019] By providing a first fixed end and a second fixed end on the vertical rod, a first rotating mechanism can be installed on the first fixed end, and a second rotating mechanism on the second fixed end. Due to the first rotating mechanism, the vertical rod can be automatically folded, unfolded, and retracted in mid-air via operational commands, achieving a 90° folding function for the rotating docking rod. Simultaneously, the second rotating mechanism allows the horizontal rod to switch back and forth between a first position and a second position. A locking mechanism then locks the horizontal rod in the second position, acting as a limit and preventing upward rotation. Furthermore, the sliding mechanism ensures that the fixed base can move forward and backward along the aircraft's flight path, enabling overall movement and adjustment of the rotating docking rod.
[0020] This rotating docking rod for recovering drone target drones can perform functions such as rotation, folding, extension, and retraction according to actual needs. The vertical rod can rotate 90° through the electronic control of the first rotating mechanism, extending outside the fuselage and retracting inside. When retracted, the top shape of the vertical rod is consistent with the shape of the fuselage. The horizontal rod can rotate 270° through the electronic control of the second rotating mechanism, extending outside the vertical rod and retracting inside. The reliability of the ground test variant mechanism of this rotating docking rod is tested, with a continuous folding and unfolding cycle of no less than 10 times, enabling the rotating docking rod to operate without being affected by weather conditions or site limitations.
[0021] Meanwhile, this rotating docking rod abandons the traditional parachute and airbag recovery method and adopts a new rotating and folding method, which allows the aircraft to be reused multiple times, provides more functions, and increases the intelligence of the rotating docking rod; in addition, the overall structural design of the rotating docking rod is relatively simple, reducing costs, and taking into account both functional requirements and weight restrictions, thus reducing the weight of the aircraft and achieving lightweight operation.

[0048] The preferred embodiments of this disclosure are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit this disclosure.
[0049] Please see Figures 1 to 10As shown, this utility model provides a rotating docking rod for recovering unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) target drones, comprising: a vertical rod 1 having a first fixed end 11 and a second fixed end 12, wherein a fixed seat 2 is provided on the first fixed end 11; a first rotating mechanism 3 connecting the vertical rod 1 and the fixed seat 2, wherein the first rotating mechanism 3 drives the vertical rod 1 to rotate relative to the fixed seat 2; a horizontal rod 4 disposed at the second fixed end 12 and connected to the vertical rod 1 via a second rotating mechanism 5, wherein the horizontal rod 4 has a first position located within the vertical rod 1 and a second position perpendicular to the vertical rod 1; a locking mechanism 6 disposed within the vertical rod 1, wherein the locking mechanism 6 is used to lock the horizontal rod 4 in the second position; and a sliding mechanism 7 disposed at the bottom of the fixed seat 2.
[0050] By providing a first fixed end 11 and a second fixed end 12 on the vertical rod 1, the first rotating mechanism 3 can be installed on the first fixed end 11, and the second rotating mechanism 5 can be installed on the second fixed end 12. Due to the first rotating mechanism 3, the vertical rod 1 can be automatically folded, unfolded, and retracted in mid-air via operational commands, thus achieving a 90° folding function for the rotating docking rod. Simultaneously, the second rotating mechanism 5 allows the horizontal rod 4 to switch back and forth between a first position and a second position. The locking mechanism 6 then locks the horizontal rod 4 in the second position, acting as a limit and preventing it from rotating upwards. Furthermore, the sliding mechanism 7 ensures that the fixed base 2 can move forward and backward along the aircraft's flight path, achieving the overall movement and adjustment function of the rotating docking rod.
[0051] This rotating docking rod for recovering the UAV target drone can realize functions such as rotation, folding, extension, and retraction according to actual needs. The vertical rod 1 can rotate 90° through the electronic control of the first rotating mechanism 3, and can extend outside the fuselage and retract inside the fuselage. When retracted, the top shape of the vertical rod 1 is consistent with the shape of the fuselage. The horizontal rod 4 can rotate 270° through the electronic control of the second rotating mechanism 5, and can extend outside the vertical rod 1 and retract inside the vertical rod 1. The reliability of the ground test variant mechanism of this rotating docking rod is tested, and the number of consecutive folding and unfolding cycles is not less than 10, so that the rotating docking rod can be operated without being affected by weather conditions or site limitations.
[0052] Meanwhile, this rotating docking rod abandons the traditional parachute and airbag recovery method and adopts a new rotating and folding method, which allows the aircraft to be reused multiple times, provides more functions, and increases the intelligence of the rotating docking rod; in addition, the overall structural design of the rotating docking rod is relatively simple, reducing costs, and taking into account both functional requirements and weight restrictions, thus reducing the weight of the aircraft and achieving lightweight operation.
[0053] In some optional embodiments, the first rotating mechanism 3 includes: a first flat motor 31, which is disposed on one side of the fixed base 2 and inserted into the vertical rod 1; and a pin 32, which is symmetrically disposed on the other side of the fixed base 2 and inserted into the vertical rod 1.
[0054] By mounting a first flat motor 31 on a fixed base 2 and inserting it into the first fixed end 11 of the vertical rod 1, and by providing mounting holes 13 on the vertical rod 1 that correspond to the mounting holes 13 on the fixed base 2, a pin 32 is inserted into the fixed base 2, and the fixed base 2 and the pin 32 are fixed together with bolts. The first flat motor 31 can then drive the vertical rod 1 to rotate, thereby allowing the rotating docking rod to extend outside the machine body or retract inside. This achieves the unfolding and folding functions of the vertical rod 1.
[0055] The leading edge of the vertical rod 1 has the same shape as the upper surface of the fuselage. When it is retracted, it maintains the same shape as the fuselage, which reduces air resistance and ensures overall aesthetics.
[0056] In some optional embodiments, the second rotating mechanism 5 includes: a second flat motor 51, which is disposed on one side of the vertical rod 1 and inserted into the square groove 41 of the horizontal rod 4; and a pin 52, which is symmetrically disposed on the other side of the vertical rod 1 and inserted into the horizontal rod 4.
[0057] The crossbar 4 has a square groove 41 at its rotation point for positioning and driving the second flat motor 51. There is a mounting hole 13 at the position of the symmetrical square groove 41 of the crossbar 4, which can be connected and fixed to the crossbar 4 by means of a pin 52.
[0058] When the second flat motor 51 receives the command, the second flat motor 51 drives the horizontal bar 4 to rotate 270° around the rotating vertical bar 1, wherein the rotation of 270° is the second position and 0° is the first position of being retracted into the vertical bar 1.
[0059] In some optional embodiments, bearings 14 are provided at the connection points of the pin 32 and the latch 52 with the vertical rod 1.
[0060] That is, a bearing 14 is installed in the mounting hole 13 of the vertical rod 1, thereby reducing rotational resistance and ensuring reliability.
[0061] Meanwhile, after removing the second flat motor 51 and the pin 52, the pin 52 disengages from the round hole of the crossbar 4, allowing for the replacement of crossbars 4 of different lengths. This is very simple and convenient, and meets the strength requirements.
[0062] In some optional embodiments, the locking mechanism 6 includes: a servo motor 61 disposed within the vertical rod 1; and a slider 62 connected to the servo motor 61, the slider 62 having a disengaged position and a locked position abutting against the horizontal rod 4, the servo motor 61 driving the slider 62 from the disengaged position to the locked position, and locking the horizontal rod 4 in a second position.
[0063] By installing the servo motor 61 inside the vertical rod 1, when it is necessary to lock the horizontal rod 4 in the second position, the rotation of the servo motor 61 can drive the slider 62 to move, that is, the slider 62 can be changed from the disengaged position to the locked position, thereby locking the horizontal rod 4; when it is necessary to unlock the horizontal rod 4 and return it to the first position, the servo motor 61 rotates, driving the slider 62 to move, changing the slider 62 from the locked position to the disengaged position, and then the second flat motor 51 rotates, driving the horizontal rod 4 from the second position to the first position, that is, the horizontal rod 4 is retracted into the vertical rod 1.
[0064] The vertical rod 1 has a groove 15 inside, so the servo motor 61 can be installed in the groove 15.
[0065] In some optional embodiments, the outer wall of the crossbar 4 is provided with a groove 42, and the slider 62 is inserted into the groove 42 when it is in the locked position.
[0066] Once the crossbar 4 rotates to the predetermined position, the servo motor 61 drives the slider 62 upward via the push rod until it is fully engaged with the groove 42. When a vertical force is applied to the crossbar 4, the crossbar 4 cannot rotate upward due to the limiting effect of the slider 62. When it is necessary to release the limiting effect, the servo motor 61 rotates in the opposite direction, driving the push rod to drive the slider 62 downward until it disengages from the groove 42, thus releasing the limiting effect.
[0067] In some optional embodiments, the sliding mechanism 7 includes: two slide rails 71 arranged symmetrically, the slide rails 71 being disposed within the machine body; a sliding member 72 disposed on the slide rails 71, the fixed seat 2 being disposed on the sliding member 72; and a connecting seat 73 located between the two slide rails 71 and connected to the fixed seat 2, the fixed seat 2 being connected to the push-pull motor 74.
[0068] When the push-pull motor 74 receives a command, the push-pull motor 74 works, extending or retracting the push rod. Under the action of horizontal force, the end of the push-pull motor 74 is connected to the connecting seat 73 and moves parallel to the slide rails 71 on both sides. The fixed seat 2 is connected to the connecting seat 73 by bolts. Therefore, the sliding part 72, the fixed seat 2, and the rotating docking rod can be moved as a whole.
[0069] Among them, the stroke of the push-pull motor 74 and the length of the slide rail 71 are greater than 200mm, ensuring that the adjustable distance of the rotating docking rod meets the requirements.
[0070] In some alternative embodiments, both the crossbar 4 and the vertical bar 1 are made of aluminum alloy.
[0071] The crossbar 4 is cylindrical with a total length of 250mm and an outer diameter of 45mm. The inner diameter of the rear end of the crossbar 4 is 35mm (length 150mm), and the inner diameter of the front end of the crossbar 4 is 29mm. A camera 43 with an outer diameter of 30mm and a length of 110mm can be installed inside the crossbar 4. The end of the crossbar 4 is designed with a threaded hole for installing a threaded plug. The camera 43 is limited at both the front and rear to prevent it from moving.
[0072] The tapered design at the front end of crossbar 4 facilitates alignment and connection with the tapered sleeve device; and crossbar 4 is made of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy, which is lightweight, easy to process, strong, and reasonably priced.
[0073] The vertical rod 1 is 500mm long and made of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy. It is lightweight, easy to process, strong, and reasonably priced.
[0074] The rotary docking rod for recovering the UAV target drone also includes a wiring structure 8, which includes: a receiving hole 81 located inside the pin 52; a wiring hole 82 located on the side wall of the vertical rod 1; and a wiring groove 83 located on the inner wall of the vertical rod 1. The wires are used to pass through the receiving hole 81 and / or the wiring hole 82 and reach the wiring groove 83.
[0075] The cable of camera 43 passes through the receiving hole 81 of the pin 52, and the bearing 14 installed therein reaches the outside of the vertical rod 1. Then it passes through the cable hole 82 of the vertical rod 1 and reaches the cable groove 83 arranged inside the vertical rod 1. The advantage of this arrangement is that the cable runs along the rotation axis of the pin 52 and will not rotate due to the rotation of the crossbar 4.
[0076] The wires of the first flat motor 61 and the second flat motor 51 are directly connected to the wiring groove 83 arranged inside the vertical rod 1 through the wiring hole 82.
[0077] The wires of the servo motor 61 are installed in the wiring trough 83 and finally pressed with a rubber strip to prevent the wires from coming off the wiring trough 83.
[0078] The mounting base 2 is a U-shaped bracket made of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy.
[0079] Specific operating procedures for the rotary docking rod used in the recovery of this drone target drone:
[0080] The rotating docking rod is initially in the fuselage, i.e., in the retracted state. When it needs to be extended, the first flat motor 31 receives an operation command and drives the vertical rod 1 to rotate relative to the fixed base 2, causing the vertical rod 1 to rotate 90°, i.e., extend out of the fuselage. When the horizontal rod 4 needs to be extended, the second flat motor 51 receives an operation command and drives the horizontal rod 4 to rotate relative to the vertical rod 1, i.e., the horizontal rod 4 changes from the first position to the second position, achieving a 270° rotation. Then, the servo motor 61 drives the slider 62 to move upward until it is completely in contact with the groove 42. The slider 62 reaches the locking position. When the vertical force is applied to the horizontal rod 4, due to the limiting effect of the slider 62, the horizontal rod 4 cannot rotate upward, and the target drone retrieval action begins. When it is necessary to release the limit of the crossbar 4, the servo motor 61 rotates in the opposite direction, driving the push rod to drive the slider 62 to move downward until it disengages from the groove 42, thus releasing the limit and the slider 62 returns to the disengaged position; then the second flat motor 51 rotates to drive the crossbar 4 to retract into the vertical bar 1, and the first flat motor 31 drives the vertical bar 1 to retract into the fuselage.
[0081] This utility model also provides a drone, including the aforementioned rotating docking rod for drone target recovery.
[0082] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make various variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
