Drone delivery system
A drone delivery system provides to send or to receive the package conveniently and safely without going out of the building by using the platform installed at the vicinity of the window. The drone delivery system includes the drone having a first docking device, a standard box having a second docking device corresponding to the first docking device and a third docking device and a platform having a fourth docking device corresponding to the third docking device.
Apparatus for vehicle launch, recovery, storage and transport
An apparatus for launching, recovering, transporting, and storing vehicles is disclosed. The apparatus stabilizes the vehicle while it is in operation or inactive and has a frame connected to at least one stabilizer. In certain configurations, the apparatus stabilizes the vehicle without using the vehicle's onboard landing gear. The apparatus may also include at least one pad connected to the apparatus.

Assistance vehicle for assisting aircraft ground movements
An assistance vehicle designed for supplying electrical energy to an electric taxiing device of an aircraft landing gear when the aircraft is moving over the ground. The assistance vehicle includes an autonomous energy source, a connector enabling it to be coupled to the aircraft and to electrically power the electric taxiing device. When an assistance instruction comprising the aircraft position is received, the assistance vehicle moves in an autonomous manner so as to reach the position of the aircraft, is automatically connected to the electric taxiing device when the assistance vehicle reaches the position of the aircraft and switches into freewheeling mode. When the assisted move has finished, the assistance vehicle is separated from the electric taxiing device and switches back into tractor mode. Thus, the electrical power supply system of the aircraft is simplified by externalizing the electrical supply of the electric taxiing device.
PROTECTIVE TARPAULIN FOR AN AIRCRAFT PROPULSION ENGINE
A protective tarpaulin for a propulsion engine of an aircraft is made of a material having an air permeability index that is sufficiently high to prevent the accumulation of moisture inside the engine or a nacelle surrounding the engine.
Pod launch and landing system for vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVS)
An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) storage and launch system, including: a UAV pod having an interior; and a telescoping UAV landing surface disposed in the interior of the UAV pod; where the telescoping UAV landing surface may translate up toward a top opening of the UAV pod, translate down into an interior of the UAV pod, or rotate relative to the UAV pod.
Take-off and landing station
Disclosed is a take-off and landing station (1) for a flying vehicle (2) for transporting people and/or loads, which flying vehicle takes off and lands vertically and comprises a flight module (3), having a plurality of drive units (17) arranged on a supporting framework structure (16) of the flight module (3), and a transportation module (4), which can be coupled to the flight module (3). The take-off and landing station (1) comprises a holding apparatus (21) having a plurality of gripper elements and support elements (11) for supporting, fixing and/or orienting the supporting framework structure (16) during take-off and landing of the flying vehicle (2) or the flight module (3).

LANDING ZONE ARRANGEMENT WITH A PLURALITY OF REMOVABLE SEGMENTS, AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A LANDING ZONE ARRANGEMENT OF THIS KIND
The invention relates to a landing zone arrangement (1) for aircraft (19), in particular aircraft capable of vertical take-off, said arrangement comprising: a plurality of segments (3) which together form a landing zone in an operating state; a storage space (2) in which the plurality of segments (3) are at least partially stowable in a stored state; and a base (5) with a rotatable rotor element (4) in order to rotate the plurality of segments (3) for transfer into the operating state and/or into the stored state. In order to create a landing zone arrangement which allows a lighter technical design, the invention provides that at least individual segments of the plurality of segments (3) are secured removably to the rotor element (4), and a securing unit (8) of the landing zone arrangement (1) is designed to fasten the removable segments (3) to the rotor element (4) for transfer into the operating state and to release this fastening for transfer into the stored state. A lifting unit (9) is provided, which has one or more lifting elements (10) arranged in or on the storage space (2) in order to move the removable segments (3) in the direction of the rotor element (4) when transferring into the operating state.
