A parcel delivery vehicle includes a door opening provided in a left side part of a vehicle, a parcel storage compartment provided inside the vehicle to store a parcel, and a parcel handling device configured to convey the parcel between a first delivery reception position and a second delivery reception position and receive the parcel from the parcel storage compartment at the first delivery reception position and transfer the parcel to a worker or an unmanned transport device at the second delivery reception position. The parcel storage compartment is provided on a front side and/or a rear side of the parcel handling device in the vehicle. The parcel handling device is provided in a vicinity of a right side part and at a position facing the door opening in a vehicle width direction, and the second delivery reception position is set between the parcel handling device and the door opening.

An aircraft transport trailer having a frame, a wheel assembly, a lower bracket, and an upper bracket. The wheel assembly is rotationally installed on the frame to support and move the frame. The lower bracket is fixedly installed on the frame, and the top of the lower bracket is provided with a body slot. The preset first surface of the inner wall of the body slot is fitted with the part of the lower surface of the body, the aircraft body can be partially seated in the aircraft body slot under the action of gravity.

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), and specifically discloses a UAV transport box. The UAV transport box has a mounting frame, a box body, a driving device, and a control system. The box body has a bottom plate and a side plate, the bottom plate is fixedly installed on the mounting frame, the UAV is arranged on the bottom plate, and the side plate can be unfolded through the driving device, so that the side plate and the bottom plate are in the same plane to form an area which is large enough to provide a suitable take-off and landing platform for the UAV, and can realize the automatic opening and closing for the UAV transport box.

This specification describes systems for unmanned aerial vehicle carrying and deployment. In some examples, an unmanned vehicle includes a drive system and a chassis. The chassis includes a platform for carrying an unmanned aerial vehicle and a retainer configured to secure the unmanned aerial vehicle to the platform while the drive system drives the unmanned vehicle. The clamping system includes at least a first rotating bar and a protrusion from the first rotating bar.

A system for basing drones is described. A network of geographically diverse hangars provides storage and charging locations as well as backhaul communications infrastructure and video monitoring. As drones are needed, a central command point tasks an available drone, which may or may not already be located in proximity to a target. If additional drones are needed, drones can be flown to the area of interest and continuous coverage provided by charging drones while an active drone is conducting the mission, then rotating charged drones into the active mission. Structures for the hangars, the overall system, and methods of operation are described.

A device for the automated charging and discharging of an object on a free-flying autonomously controlled drone includes a landing platform for the drone, a storage device for storing objects, a robot where the robot is configured to remove an object from the storage apparatus in an automated manner and to provide the object on the landing platform to be picked up by the drone and is configured to pick up in an automated manner an object that is provided on the landing platform by the drone and to deposit the object in the storage apparatus, and a controller where the robot is controllable by the controller.

A take-off apparatus and method for unmanned aerial vehicle without landing gear includes an unmanned aerial vehicle, a carrier, a lock/release mechanism, a lift or airspeed sensing module, a signal processing module and a release motion sensing module. The lock/release mechanism locks the unmanned aerial vehicle onto the carrier and controllably releases the unmanned aerial vehicle from the carrier. The lift or airspeed sensing module senses an overall lift or airspeed of the unmanned aerial vehicle. When the lift or speed value of the unmanned aerial vehicle is greater than a predetermined threshold, it drives the lock/release mechanism into an unlocked state so that the unmanned aerial vehicle is released from the carrier and takes off more accurately and successfully.
