BATTERY USED FOR UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE AND UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE
20210107644 · 2021-04-15 ·

The present invention discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle including a main body, a plurality of arms, a propulsion assembly and a battery assembly, where each arm is coupled to the main body and the propulsion assembly is disposed on the each arm. The battery assembly is accommodated in a battery compartment of the main body. The battery assembly includes a shell, a battery body substantially disposed in the shell, a clamp button, and a restorable elastic piece. An end of the clamp button is mounted or connects to the shell, and the other end of the clamp button is detachably coupled to the main body. An end of the restorable elastic piece is disposed on the shell or connect to the shell, and the other end of the restorable elastic piece contacts the clamp button.

PROPELLERS, POWER ASSEMBLIES AND AERIAL VEHICLES
20210139132 · 2021-05-13 · ·

The present disclosure provides a propeller, a power assembly and an aerial vehicle. The propeller includes a propeller hub and at least two propeller blades arranged at equal intervals along a periphery of the propeller hub. The propeller blades are rotatably connected to the propeller hub through a rotating shaft so as to fold the propeller blades toward an axis of rotation of the propeller hub, or to unfold the propeller blades away from the axis of rotation of the propeller hub. There is a preset angle between an axis of the rotating shaft and the axis of rotation. The propeller hub is in connection with a drive device to transmit power to drive the propeller hub to rotate around the axis of rotation.

LENGTH ADJUSTABLE LINK

An exemplary length adjustable link includes a tube having an internal bore and internal surface, a first rod end having a first shaft disposed in a first end of the internal bore, a second rod end having a second shaft disposed in a second end of the internal bore, and a member threadably connecting the first rod end to the second rod end.

Blade fold system using flap hinge

A rotor system of a tail-sitter aerial vehicle configured to rotate about an axis of rotation is provided including a rotor hub which rotates about the axis of rotation and at least one rotor blade operably coupled to the rotor hub. The at least one rotor blade is configured to rotate about a folding axis between an extended position where the at least one rotor blade is substantially within a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation and a stowed position where the rotor blade is arranged out of the plane of at an angle less than ninety degrees to the axis of rotation.

CONVERTIPLANE

The invention relates to the field of aviation, particularly to designs for vertical take-off and landing aircraft. A convertiplane comprises a fuselage, a pair of wings (a fore wing and an aft wing), propulsion systems comprising engines and propellers, a vertical stabilizer, a landing gear, and rotatable pylons. Two lifting propulsion systems are disposed on pylons having two degrees of freedom relative to the yaw and pitch angle on each side of the fuselage so as to be capable of being fixed in position and of retracting forward or backward into fuselage niches during horizontal flight. A marching propulsion system is installed on a pylon having one degree of freedom relative to the pitch angle so as to be capable of being fixed in position, or is completely fixed, and is capable of being disposed in either the nose part or the tail part of the fuselage, and likewise on the leading edge or the trailing edge of the vertical stabilizer. The invention allows for increasing reliability and service life, increasing flight distance, and decreasing production costs for the convertiplane.
