Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the retractable paddle arm 122 is drivingly connected to the fixed paddle arm 121 through a gear 123 and a rack 124. When the gear 123 is rotated, the rack 124 moves along the gear 123, so that the retractable paddle arm 122 is retracted relative to the fixed paddle arm 121. The unmanned aerial vehicle 10 of this embodiment also includes a drive motor 19. The rotating part of the driving motor 19 is fixedly connected with the gear 123, and the fixed part of the driving motor 19 is fixedly connected with the first paddle arm. The rotating part of the driving motor 19 may be a rotating shaft or a rotor, and the fixed part of the driving motor 19 may be a motor base or a stator. And, the driving motor 19 is electrically connected to the PCB board.

Specifically, in the present embodiment, the gear 123 is fixed in the fixed paddle arm 121, and the driving motor 19 is also fixed in the fixed paddle arm 121. The driving motor 19 and the gear 123 effectively utilize the space in the fixed paddle arm 121, so as to avoid occupying the space of the body 11, and facilitate the internal arrangement of the body 11. Referring to fig. 3 to 5, one end of the rack 124 is engaged with the gear 123, and the other end of the rack 124 is fixedly connected to the inner sidewall of the retractable paddle arm 122. And, one end of the rack 124 engaged with the gear 123 can be extended from the inside of the telescopic paddle arm 122.
It is understood that the rack 124 may be fixedly connected to the inner sidewall of the telescopic paddle arm 122 by screws or bonding. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the retractable paddle arm 122 is formed by injection molding, and the rack 124 is embedded in the inner sidewall of the retractable paddle arm 122 by injection molding when the retractable paddle arm 122 is formed by injection molding. The rack 124 is connected with the telescopic paddle arm 122 through the above mode, the operation is simple and convenient, the stability of the connection of the rack 124 and the telescopic paddle arm 122 can be guaranteed, and the damage to the telescopic paddle arm assembly 12 of the unmanned aerial vehicle 10 caused by the fact that screw holes are required to be formed in the telescopic paddle arm 122 due to screw connection can be avoided.
When the gear 123 rotates, one end of the rack 124 engaged with the gear 123 moves along the gear 123, and the other end of the rack 124 is driven to extend and retract. Since the other end of the rack 124 is fixedly connected to the retractable paddle arm 122, the rack 124 drives the retractable paddle arm 122 to retract along with the other end of the rack 124.
And, the driving motor 19 may be at least one.
In one embodiment, the number of the driving motors 19 may be one or two. When there is one drive motor 19, the drive motor 19 may be disposed inside the body 11, such as in a central position of the body 11. Four gears 123 are arranged on a driving shaft of the driving motor 19, each gear 123 is in driving connection with one rack 124, and each rack 124 drives one telescopic paddle arm 122 to move telescopically. Since the four gears 123 are disposed in an overlapping manner, the four racks 124 need to be spatially offset from each other to avoid interference between the racks 124. Due to the fact that one driving motor 19 is used, the rotating speeds of the four gears 123 are enabled to be consistent, the telescopic distance of each telescopic paddle arm 122 relative to the fixed paddle arm 121 can be kept consistent, the lengths of the telescopic paddle arm assemblies 12 are enabled to be the same, and telescopic adjustment of the telescopic paddle arm assemblies 12 is facilitated. Avoid the length difference of a plurality of scalable oar arm components 12, influence unmanned aerial vehicle 10's flight.
When there are two drive motors 19, two gears 123 are provided on each drive motor 19. Each driving motor 19 drives two adjacent or opposite telescopic paddle arms 122 to be telescopic. Also, since the two gears 123 are disposed to overlap each other, the two racks 124 need to be spatially displaced from each other to avoid interference between the racks 124.
In one embodiment, the number of the driving motors 19 may be four, and the four driving motors 19 respectively drive one gear 123. One rack 124 for each gear 123, and one drive motor 19 for each retractable paddle arm assembly 12. The four driving motors 19 receive a PWM signal at the same time, the driving motors 19 rotate forward or backward, and the four telescopic paddle arms 122 can be controlled to open or close simultaneously by the engagement of the gear 123 and the rack 124. The four driving motors 19 have the same rotating speed, so that the telescopic distances of the four telescopic paddle arms 122 are ensured to be equal, and the length of the telescopic paddle arm assembly 12 is the same.
Referring to fig. 4, an avoiding groove 125 is formed at the bottom of one end of the telescopic paddle arm 122 close to the fixed paddle arm 121, and when the telescopic paddle arm 122 is contracted, the telescopic paddle arm 122 collides with the base of the driving motor 19. The escape groove 125 serves to prevent the telescopic paddle arm 122 from colliding with the driving motor 19. The shape of the avoiding groove 125 is adapted to the shape and size of the driving motor 19. When the end of the retractable paddle arm 122 close to the fixed paddle arm 121 retracts to move into the fixed paddle arm 121, as shown in fig. 5, the driving motor 19 is accommodated in the avoiding groove 125, so as to avoid interference between the retractable paddle arm 122 and the driving motor 19.
It is understood that when the length of the rack 124 is long enough and the installation position of the driving motor 19 is far enough from the telescopic paddle arm 122, the fixed paddle arm 121 and the telescopic paddle arm 122 do not need to overlap to satisfy the arm length adjustment of the telescopic paddle arm assembly, and the escape groove 125 can be omitted.
Referring to fig. 2 and 5, in the present embodiment, the unmanned aerial vehicle 10 of the present embodiment further includes a winding mechanism 18. The wire winding mechanism 18 is fixedly disposed in the fixed paddle arm 121. The wire 20 of the power motor 16 is electrically connected with the first power supply and the first PCB through the wire winding mechanism 18, and the wire winding mechanism 18 is used for winding and unwinding the wire 20 between the power motor 16 and the first power supply or between the power motor 16 and the first PCB.
Specifically, referring to fig. 6, the winding mechanism 18 includes a housing, a winding shaft and a torsion spring. One end of the wire 20 is electrically connected to the first PCB or the first power source, and the other end is electrically connected to the power motor 16. The wire 20 is wound on a reel. The reel is provided with a groove, and the lead 20 is accommodated in the groove so as to facilitate the winding of the lead 20. One torque arm of the torsion spring is fixedly connected with the shell, and the other end of the torsion spring is fixedly connected with the scroll. When the gear 123 rotates in the forward direction and the telescopic paddle arm 122 is far away from the fixed paddle arm 121, tension is applied to the wire 20, the wire 20 is stretched, the reel rotates, and the torsion spring deforms. When the gear 123 rotates reversely and the telescopic paddle arm 122 approaches the fixed paddle arm 121, the wire 20 is loosened, the torsion spring recovers elastic deformation, and the reel rotates to rewind the wire 20 on the reel. The winding mechanism 18 can timely wind and unwind the conducting wire 20, and the conducting wire 20 is prevented from winding to influence the movement of the telescopic paddle arm 122.
It is understood that in other embodiments, the second paddle arm is fixedly connected to the body 11, and then the second paddle arm is the fixed paddle arm 121, and the first paddle arm is the telescopic paddle arm 122. The telescopic paddle arm 122 is connected with a power motor 16 for driving the propeller 17 to rotate. That is, the gear 123 is fixedly disposed in the retractable paddle arm 122, one end of the rack 124 is engaged with the gear 123, and the other end of the rack 124 is fixedly connected to the inner sidewall of the fixed paddle arm 121.
Also, a driving motor 19 is fixedly provided in the telescopic paddle arm 122 to drive the gear 123. When the driving motor 19 drives the gear 123 to rotate, one end of the rack 124 meshed with the gear 123 moves along with the gear 123, and the other end of the rack 124 is driven to stretch and retract. Since the other end of the rack 124 is fixedly connected to the fixed paddle arm 121, the rack 124 drives the retractable paddle arm 122 to move closer to or away from the fixed paddle arm 121.
In other embodiments, when the driving motor 19 is fixedly disposed in the retractable paddle arm 122, an avoiding groove is formed at the bottom of the fixed paddle arm 121 near one end of the retractable paddle arm 122. The escape groove is used to prevent the fixed paddle arm 121 from colliding with the driving motor. Therefore, the avoidance groove formed in the telescopic paddle arm 122 can also prevent the fixed paddle arm 121 from interfering with the driving motor. When the length of the rack 124 is long enough and the installation position of the driving motor 19 is far enough from the fixed paddle arm 121, the fixed paddle arm 121 and the telescopic paddle arm 122 do not need to overlap, and the adjustment of the arm length of the telescopic paddle arm assembly 12 can be satisfied, and the avoidance groove can be omitted. It will be appreciated that the reeling mechanism 18 may also be fixedly arranged inside the telescopic paddle arm 122. Since the driving motor 19 is located in the retractable paddle arm 122, the driving motor 19 is electrically connected to the second power supply and the second PCB through the wire winding mechanism 18. The wire coiling mechanism 18 can also be used to reel in and out wires between the drive motor 19 and the second power supply or wires 20 between the drive motor 19 and the second PCB board. The winding mechanism 18 is provided with two reels, and the winding mechanism 18 respectively winds and retracts the wires 20 of the power motor 16 and the drive motor 19.
In the above-described unmanned aerial vehicle 10, the fixed paddle arm 121 and the retractable paddle arm 122 are drivingly connected to each other through the gear 123 and the rack 124, and the rack 124 is driven by the gear 123 to move by rotating the gear 123. Therefore, the gear 123 rotates forward and backward, and the rack 124 moves forward or backward relatively, thereby moving the retractable paddle arm 122 and the fixed paddle arm 121 closer to or farther away from each other. Therefore, the length of the paddle arm of the drone 10 may be adjusted by the gear 123 and the rack 124.
When scalable oar arm component 12 opens, can increase the distribution distance that is located the screw 17 on a plurality of flexible oar arms 122 tops, and then can match the screw 17 of different specifications for unmanned aerial vehicle 10 to form different power effect in order to satisfy different application demands. When the large-size propeller 17 is matched, the force effect of the propeller 17 can be improved, the overall efficiency of the unmanned aerial vehicle 10 is further improved, and the endurance time of the unmanned aerial vehicle 10 is prolonged.
When the retractable paddle arm assembly 12 is retracted, the volume of the drone 10 is reduced and the drone 10 is suitable for lower load situations. The telescopic paddle arm assembly 12 of the unmanned aerial vehicle 10 can be matched with the small-sized propeller 17, so that the flexibility of the unmanned aerial vehicle 10 can be improved.
