Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of starting device technology, specifically a brushless motor driven starting device for unmanned aerial vehicles. Background Technology

[0002] Drone technology has been widely applied in various fields such as aerial photography, agricultural plant protection, power line inspection, and logistics transportation. The stable start-up of its power system is one of the core prerequisites for ensuring the smooth execution of drone missions. As a key component of the power system, the drone's starting device must be compatible with the drone's overall structure, payload requirements, and operational performance. Its structural design, weight control, and ease of installation directly affect the drone's endurance, flight stability, and maintenance efficiency. Therefore, as drone technology continues to iterate, increasingly stringent requirements are being placed on the comprehensive performance of the starting device.

[0003] Existing drone launchers still have many issues that need improvement in practical applications. Regarding weight control, some launchers, in order to ensure structural stability, often rely excessively on increasing material usage without optimizing the component structure. This results in an overall excessive weight for the launcher, making it difficult to meet the drone's core requirement for lightweight components, which may indirectly affect the drone's payload and flight time. In terms of installation, existing launchers lack a convenient installation structure specifically adapted to the drone's body. Assembling them onto the bottom or side of the drone is cumbersome, increasing both installation difficulty and time. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a brushless motor-driven starting device for drones, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the overall weight of the starting device being too large, making it difficult to meet the core requirements of drones for lightweight components, and the cumbersome operation process, which not only increases the difficulty of installation but also prolongs the assembly time.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a brushless motor-driven starting device for unmanned aerial vehicles, comprising:

[0006] A starting device housing, wherein the surface of the starting device housing is uniformly provided with first slots;

[0007] A cover plate is disposed on the upper surface of the housing of the starting device. The surface of the cover plate is evenly provided with a second slot, and mounting ears are installed on both sides of the surface of the cover plate.

[0008] A mounting bracket is disposed on the surface of the housing of the starting device, and the surface of the mounting bracket is evenly provided with third slots;

[0009] A brushless motor is installed inside the housing of the starting device. A drive shaft is installed at the output end of the brushless motor. A battery is installed inside the housing of the starting device. A drive control module is also installed inside the housing of the starting device. Both the battery and the drive control module are electrically connected to the brushless motor.

[0010] Preferably, a base is installed at the bottom of the starting device housing, the surface of the base is evenly provided with a fourth slot, a mounting seat is installed in the middle of the base, and the brushless motor is installed on the upper surface of the mounting seat. The design of the fourth slot helps to reduce the weight of the base, and the shape and size of the mounting seat are matched with the brushless motor, which can provide stable support for the brushless motor.

[0011] Preferably, mounting blocks are installed at all four corners of the mounting frame, and threaded grooves are formed on the surface of each mounting block to ensure a reliable connection between the mounting frame and the drone.

[0012] Preferably, the upper surface of the cover plate is evenly provided with threaded rods, and the connecting ends of the threaded rods are screwed onto the surface of the starting device housing. The threaded rods can be removed to disassemble the cover plate, thereby facilitating the maintenance of the components inside the starting device housing.

[0013] Preferably, a mounting sleeve is installed in the middle of the upper surface of the cover plate, and a bearing is installed inside the mounting sleeve, which enables the drive shaft to rotate stably.

[0014] Preferably, a bushing is mounted on the surface of the drive shaft, and the bushing is in close contact with the inner ring of the bearing, which can reduce the friction between the drive shaft and the inner ring of the bearing.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a brushless motor driven starting device for drones, which has the following advantages:

[0016] This drone uses a brushless motor-driven starting device. The added first, second, and third slots reduce the material usage of corresponding components while ensuring the basic functions and structural stability of each structure. This effectively reduces the overall weight of the starting device, meeting the drone's need for lightweight components. The mounting ears and mounting brackets facilitate the installation of the starting device on the bottom and side surfaces of the drone, reducing the complexity of the installation operation. At the same time, the brushless motor, battery, and drive control module are integrated inside the starting device's housing. This reduces redundant external connecting components to further reduce the overall weight and allows the installation positions of each component to be relatively concentrated, avoiding the inconvenience caused by scattered installation. Overall, the starting device achieves the effect of reducing weight and facilitating installation. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] This utility model provides a technical solution: a brushless motor-driven starter for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 1 It includes a starting device housing 1, and the surface of the starting device housing 1 is evenly provided with a first groove 2;

[0023] Cover plate 3 is provided on the upper surface of the housing 1 of the starting device. The surface of cover plate 3 is evenly provided with second slots 4, and mounting ears 5 are installed on both sides of the surface of cover plate 3.

[0024] Mounting bracket 6 is disposed on the surface of the housing 1 of the starting device, and the surface of mounting bracket 6 is evenly provided with third slots 7;

[0025] Please see Figure 2 The brushless motor 9 is located inside the starting device housing 1. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 The output end of the brushless motor 9 is equipped with a drive shaft 10. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 The starting device housing 1 houses a battery 11 and a drive control module 12. Both the battery 11 and the drive control module 12 are electrically connected to the brushless motor 9.

[0026] The drive control module 12 includes a modular PCB substrate, on which a core control unit, a brushless motor 9 commutation drive unit, an electromagnetic push rod drive unit, a signal detection unit, and a power management unit are integrated. This is a mature solution for the existing brushless motor 9 starting device, and will not be described in detail here.

[0027] The uniformly distributed first slot 2 on the surface of the starting device housing 1, the uniformly distributed second slot 4 on the surface of the cover plate 3, and the uniformly distributed third slot 7 on the surface of the mounting bracket 6 can reduce the material usage of corresponding components while ensuring the basic functions and structural stability of each structure, thereby effectively reducing the overall weight of the starting device and meeting the UAV's requirements for lightweight components. The mounting ears 5 installed on both sides of the cover plate 3 provide clear and convenient connection points for the assembly of the cover plate 3 and the starting device housing 1, facilitating the quick assembly and disassembly of the cover plate 3. The mounting bracket 6 can easily position and install the entire starting device to the corresponding assembly position on the UAV, reducing the complexity of the installation operation. At the same time, the brushless motor 9, the battery 11, and the drive control module 12 are integrated inside the starting device housing 1, and the structural layout in which the battery 11 and the drive control module 12 are electrically connected to the brushless motor 9 not only reduces the number of external redundant connecting components to further assist in reducing the overall weight, but also makes the installation positions of each component relatively concentrated, avoiding the inconvenience caused by scattered installation, thus achieving the effect of reducing the weight of the starting device and facilitating installation.

[0028] A base 13 is installed at the bottom of the starting device housing 1. The surface of the base 13 is evenly provided with fourth slots 14. A mounting seat 15 is installed in the middle of the base 13. The brushless motor 9 is installed on the upper surface of the mounting seat 15. The design of the fourth slot 14 helps to reduce the weight of the base 13.

[0029] Mounting blocks 8 are installed at the four corners of the mounting frame 6. The surface of each mounting block 8 is provided with threaded grooves to ensure a reliable connection between the mounting frame 6 and the drone.

[0030] The upper surface of the cover plate 3 is evenly provided with threaded rods 16. The connecting ends of the threaded rods 16 are screwed onto the surface of the starter housing 1. The cover plate 3 can be disassembled by removing the threaded rods 16, which makes it convenient to maintain the internal components of the starter housing 1.

[0031] A mounting sleeve 17 is installed in the middle of the upper surface of cover plate 3. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 The mounting sleeve 17 has a bearing 18 installed inside, which enables the drive shaft 10 to rotate stably.

[0032] A bushing 19 is mounted on the surface of the drive shaft 10. The bushing 19 is in close contact with the inner ring of the bearing 18, which can reduce the friction between the drive shaft 10 and the inner ring of the bearing 18.

[0033] In operation, this solution achieves the following: the mounting bracket 6 is reliably connected to the corresponding assembly position of the UAV via the threaded grooves on the four corner mounting blocks 8, thus realizing the initial positioning and installation of the starting device; the first groove 2 on the surface of the starting device housing 1, the second groove 4 on the surface of the cover plate 3, the third groove 7 on the surface of the mounting bracket 6, and the fourth groove 14 on the surface of the base 13 reduce the amount of material used and lighten the overall weight while ensuring the basic functions and stability of each structure; the brushless motor 9 is mounted on the mounting seat 15 in the middle of the base 13, and the battery 11 and the drive control module 12 are integrated inside the starting device housing 1 and are both electrically connected to the brushless motor 9, reducing redundant external connecting parts and concentrating the installation positions of the parts; the cover plate 3 is connected to the starting device housing 1 via the threaded rod 16 on its upper surface, facilitating disassembly and assembly for maintenance of internal parts; the drive shaft 10 rotates stably via the bearing 18 in the mounting sleeve 17 in the middle of the upper surface of the cover plate 3, and the bushing 19 on the surface of the drive shaft 10 is in close contact with the inner ring of the bearing 18 to reduce friction, thus achieving the effect of reducing the weight of the starting device, facilitating installation, and ensuring stable operation.
