Detailed Description
For the purposes of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present application, which are generally described and illustrated in the figures herein, may be arranged and designed in a wide variety of different configurations.
Thus, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application, as provided in the accompanying drawings, is not intended to limit the scope of the application, as claimed, but is merely representative of selected embodiments of the application. All other embodiments, which can be made by one of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments herein without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the present application.
It should be noted that: like reference numerals and letters denote like items in the following figures, and thus once an item is defined in one figure, no further definition or explanation thereof is necessary in the following figures.
In the description of the present application, it should be noted that, if the terms "upper," "lower," "inner," "outer," and the like indicate an azimuth or a positional relationship based on the azimuth or the positional relationship shown in the drawings, or the azimuth or the positional relationship in which the inventive product is conventionally put in use, it is merely for convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and it is not indicated or implied that the apparatus or element referred to must have a specific azimuth, be configured and operated in a specific azimuth, and thus should not be construed as limiting the present application.
Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and the like, if any, are used merely for distinguishing between descriptions and not for indicating or implying a relative importance.
It should be noted that, without conflict, features in embodiments of the present application may be combined with each other.
In the related art, an engine of an unmanned helicopter is connected to a fuselage frame through a plurality of dampers, which are disposed on the same side of the engine, such as each damper being disposed on a lower side or a rear side of the engine. This damper arrangement results in one side of the engine being supported by the damper and the opposite side being unsupported, the unsupported side of the engine being prone to wobble when the engine is running, resulting in unstable wobble of the engine output shaft and ultimately in unstable gears or pulleys mounted on the engine output shaft. Instability of the engine and associated transmission components may ultimately lead to transmission failure or transmission inefficiency.
In order to solve the problem of poor engine stability in the related art, the embodiment of the application provides an unmanned helicopter, which improves the uniformity of stress of an engine by distributing a plurality of shock absorbers around the center of gravity of the engine, thereby improving the stability.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating an assembly of a fuselage frame 200, an engine assembly 100, and a transmission 300 according to one embodiment of the present application. The unmanned helicopter provided by the embodiment of the application comprises a fuselage frame 200, an engine assembly 100, a rotor assembly and a transmission mechanism 300, wherein the engine assembly 100 is installed on the fuselage frame 200. In addition, the unmanned helicopter also comprises a control system, a shell and other components which are not shown in the figure. The unmanned helicopter provided by the embodiment of the application can be a tandem double-rotor unmanned helicopter.
In the present embodiment, the fuselage frame 200 includes two top beams 210 and two bottom beams 220 extending in the front-rear direction of the unmanned helicopter (the direction indicated by the arrow ab in the figure), the two top beams 210 being spaced apart in the left-right direction of the unmanned helicopter, and the two bottom beams 220 also being spaced apart in the left-right direction of the unmanned helicopter (the direction indicated by the arrow cd in the figure). The top beams 210 are spaced from the bottom beams 220 in the up-down direction (indicated by arrow ef) of the unmanned helicopter, with two top beams 210 up and two bottom beams 220 down. In this embodiment, the engine assembly 100 is coupled to two top beams 210 and two bottom beams 220.
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating the assembly of engine assembly 100 in one embodiment of the present application; fig. 3 is an exploded view of engine assembly 100 in one embodiment of the present application. Referring to fig. 1-3, in an embodiment of the present application, an engine assembly 100 includes an engine 110 and a plurality of shock absorbers 130 disposed about the engine 110, the shock absorbers 130 being for direct or indirect connection with the engine 110 and a fuselage frame 200 of an unmanned helicopter. In order to enable the engine 110 to uniformly receive force, at least two dampers 130 are respectively located at both sides of the center of gravity of the engine 110 in the front-rear direction of the unmanned helicopter, at least two dampers 130 are respectively located at both sides of the center of gravity of the engine 110 in the up-down direction of the unmanned helicopter, and at least two dampers 130 are respectively located at both sides of the center of gravity of the engine 110 in the left-right direction of the unmanned helicopter. By the arrangement, the center of gravity of the engine 110 can be surrounded by the shock absorber 130, so that the problem that a plurality of positions around the engine 110 (around and up and down) are supported and damped by the shock absorber 130 in a multipoint manner, the stress is more uniform, and the swing problem of a certain side of the engine 110 due to lack of support and damping is not easy to occur.
Further, the engine assembly 100 includes an inner mounting bracket coupled to the engine 110 and an outer mounting bracket for coupling to the fuselage frame 200, to which the shock absorber 130 is coupled. In the present embodiment, the engine 110, the inner mounting bracket, the damper 130, the outer mounting bracket, and the body frame 200 are sequentially connected, thereby achieving the mounting and fixing of the engine 110 on the body frame 200. Since the engine 110 has an irregular shape, in the present embodiment, the damper 130 is disposed between the inner mounting bracket and the outer mounting bracket, and is connected with the engine 110 through the inner mounting bracket, and is connected with the fuselage frame 200 through the outer mounting bracket, so that the suitability of the engine 110 and the fuselage frame 200 can be increased by adding the inner mounting bracket and the outer mounting bracket, which is convenient for better mounting the engine 110 to the fuselage frame 200. In alternative other embodiments, the engine 110 may be coupled directly to the shock absorber 130 and/or the shock absorber 130 may be coupled directly to the fuselage frame 200.
In the present embodiment, the engine 110 includes a cylinder 111 and an engine bracket 112, the engine bracket 112 is connected to the rear end of the cylinder 111 in the front-rear direction of the unmanned helicopter (i.e., the outer surface of one end of the cylinder 111), an inner mounting bracket at one end remote from the engine bracket 112 is connected to the cylinder 111, and an inner mounting bracket at one end near the engine bracket 112 is connected to the engine bracket 112 to be connected to the cylinder 111 through the engine bracket 112. Because the cylinder 111 of the engine 110 is irregular in shape, the engine bracket 112 is additionally arranged, so that the inner mounting bracket is indirectly and fixedly connected with the cylinder 111 through the engine bracket 112 at a local position, the suitability of the cylinder 111 can be improved to a certain extent, and the engine 110 has an appearance convenient to mount. Alternatively, the cylinder 111 of the engine 110 and the engine bracket 112 may be detachably connected by using fasteners such as screws, or may be connected by welding. The cylinder 111 and the inner mounting bracket, and the inner mounting bracket and the engine bracket 112 can be detachably connected by fasteners such as screws. In the present embodiment, one end of the cylinder 111 is connected to the engine bracket 112 by screws (optionally, four screws) in the fore-and-aft direction of the unmanned helicopter to be connected to the inner mounting bracket by the engine bracket 112, and the other end of the cylinder 111 is directly connected to the inner mounting bracket. In alternative other embodiments, the engine 110 may not include an engine mount 112, with the inner mounting mount being directly coupled to the cylinder 111.
Fig. 4 is a schematic illustration of engine assembly 100 with cylinder 111 omitted in one embodiment of the present application. Referring to fig. 1 to 4, in the present embodiment, the inner mounting bracket includes an upper inner bracket 120, the outer mounting bracket includes an upper outer bracket 140, the upper inner bracket 120 is connected to the engine 110, and the upper outer bracket 140 is used to connect to the body frame 200; in the up-down direction of the unmanned helicopter, the upper end of the damper 130 located above the center of gravity of the engine 110 is connected to the upper inner bracket 120, and the lower end is connected to the upper outer bracket 140. By the arrangement, the shock absorber 130 above the center of gravity of the engine 110 still plays a role in supporting and absorbing shock to the engine 110, bears a part of the gravity of the engine 110, and avoids the other shock absorbers 130 from bearing excessive downward pressure.
