A kind of autonomous flight is without active force unmanned plane and flying method thereof
Technical field
A kind of autonomous flight, without active force unmanned plane and flying method thereof, belongs to aeronautical technology field, relates in particular to a kind of autonomous flight unmanned plane and flying method thereof.
Background technology
Traditional unmanned plane is with main power plant, adopts on motor-driven machine with high capacity cell, main motor, electronic governor and propelling unit as screw propeller or ducted fan etc.; Adopt on ICE-powered machine with fuel tank, explosive motor, speed control steering wheel and propelling unit that fuel oil is housed as screw propeller or ducted fan etc.The ratio that these devices account for gross weight is quite large, and can produce resistance, causes the efficiency of flight not high, and complex structure, and cost is high.If lost contact has been lost or fault is fallen, loss also can be very large.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to overcome the above-mentioned deficiency of traditional unmanned plane, invent a kind of simple in structure, lightweight and autonomous flight that flight efficiency is high cheaply without active force unmanned plane and flying method thereof.
A kind of autonomous flight, without active force unmanned plane, is made up of fuselage, movable left wing, activity right flank, empennage, alighting gear, automatic navigation system, control system, airborne equipment, implement and signal handling equipment.Movable left wing is identical with activity right flank structure to be symmetrically arranged in the left and right sides of the symmetrical vertical section of fuselage, and is placed in fuselage top.Empennage comprises vertical tail and tailplane.The yaw rudder of the fixed fin that vertical tail is fixed by front portion and rear portion activity forms; The elevating rudder of the horizontal stabilizer that tailplane is fixed by front portion and rear portion activity form.Elevating rudder is upper and lower deflection under the manipulation of control system, upward deflects and can make this unmanned plane come back, and realization is faced upward; The change of team of elevating rudder downward bias is bowed this unmanned plane, realizes nutation.Yaw rudder is deflection under the manipulation of control system, and this unmanned plane is gone off course to the left or to the right.Alighting gear adopts ski type structure, and resistance is little, less demanding to landing place, and as more smooth ground, even sand ground or meadow can meet landing requirement.Automatic navigation system, control system, airborne equipment, implement and signal handling equipment adopt the lithium battery power supply of the suitable capacity of convenient charging.Automatic navigation system adopts GPS navigation system or triones navigation system.Control system is used for the folding of control activity left wing and activity right flank, and controls this unmanned plane and turn and pitching flying attitude.The power element of the folding of control activity left wing and activity right flank adopts high torque steering wheel, or directly adopts the additional gear cluster of servomotor.Airborne equipment is including spiral shell top instrument and containing the flight parameter flying height, flying speed and wind speed and meteorological parameter acquisition equipment.Implement comprises pick up camera and other working equipments, and other working equipments are to be equipped with according to different job tasks.While needing to carry out aerial delivery goods and materials task, be equipped with controllable mechanical handgrip.Signal handling equipment can be issued flight parameter, meteorologic parameter, audio frequency and video and pictorial information wayside equipment and can be distributed to relevant device and the system on machine by receiving the ground signal instruction coming.The wayside equipment being used in conjunction with unmanned plane of the present invention comprises body projector, signal sending and receiving equipment and flight control unit.Body projector is furnished with closed-center system and catapult-launching gear.Signal sending and receiving equipment comprises video, audio frequency and figure receiving device, and flight parameter and meteorologic parameter receiving device including flying height, flying speed and wind speed, and flight directive sender unit.Flight control unit comprises computer, controls software and automatic tracking system.
Autonomous flight of the present invention without the flying method of active force unmanned plane is: adopt ground-launched mode to take off, by movable left wing and activity right flank, this unmanned plane removable mounting in closing up state, on the catapult-launching gear of the body projector of energy storage, uses the mode of launching to penetrate and to have realized and having taken off with overhead, horizontal surface angle task place approximately at 45 ° with precalculated initial velocity.When synchronously open gradually under movable left wing and the control of activity right flank in control system behind this unmanned plane arrival overhead, task place simultaneously.Unmanned plane is carried out photography, is scouted or deliver goods and materials task in the air, and flight information and the situation information of executing the task are beamed back to ground, after task completes, makes a return voyage and lands.Whole flight course be substantially according to predefined flight path autonomous flight or fly by ground remote control.When calculating in advance initial velocity and presetting flight path, should consider the skyborne degradation of energy of this unmanned plane and leave enough energy balance so that safety is maked a return voyage and lands.
A kind of autonomous flight of the present invention has two kinds of mode of operations without active force unmanned plane: winglet pattern and large wing pattern.Be winglet pattern from county of emission to the process in overhead, task place, this procedure activation left wing and activity right flank are in closing up state, and the resistance that this unmanned plane is subject to is little, and degradation of energy is little, and speed is fast.The stage of executing the task is large wing pattern with the stage of making a return voyage, and movable left wing and activity right flank are in open mode, and when large wing pattern, this unmanned plane speed is slow, conveniently executes the task, and lift is large, and airborne period is long, guarantees make a return voyage and land safely.
The task that this unmanned plane is carried out has but is not limited to: aerophotography, and geographical mapping, scientific investigation, the condition of a disaster is observed, and military surveillance, delivers goods and materials in the air.
A kind of autonomous flight of this invention without the outstanding advantages of active force unmanned plane is: energy-conserving and environment-protective and safety.Owing to there is no driving engine and energy supply system on machine, simple in structure, lightweight, energy-conservation consumption reduction again; On machine, there is no fuel oil or high capacity cell, greatly reduced burning and explosion safety accident.Even if lost contact has been lost or fault is fallen, loss also can be too large.The fast used time of speed in the arrival task of taking off place is short, and efficiency is high, and while making a return voyage landing, speed is safe and reliable slowly.The supporting multiple UAVs of a set of wayside equipment can be carried out multi-mode operation task simultaneously, cost-saving widely.
Flying method of the present invention is particularly useful for short range and executes the task.
