Alighting gear anchor fitting, except being provided with electromagnetic absorption device 7 and fixed hook 5 simultaneously, also can only being installed separately electromagnetic absorption device 7 or only install fixed hook 5, for the application of the aircraft of particular types.
Figure 13 is the schematic diagram of charging unit.Charging unit is arranged within charging box 2, comprises battery 21 and charging conduit conveyer.If shut down on plate 1 and be provided with multiple charging slide rail, then the inside correspondence of charging box 2 is provided with multiple charging conduit conveyer.Figure 14 is the enlarged diagram of part A in Figure 13.The rotatable gear 24 that charging conduit conveyer comprises support 25, cantilever tip is installed and charging conduit 22, charging conduit side is fixed with linear sawtooth rod 23, the sawtooth of sawtooth rod 23 and the tooth of gear 24 match, then when gear 24 rotates, sawtooth rod 23 can be driven linearly to move.Charging conduit 22 is connected with battery 21.
Figure 15 is the charging termination schematic diagram of charging conduit.Figure 16 be Figure 15 disassemble schematic diagram.Charging conduit 22 one end is the connection end be connected with battery 21, and the other end is the charging termination for aircraft charging.The charging termination of charging conduit 22 is provided with spring 25, charging inlet 26, pad 27 and pad 28, and charging inlet 26 is the plug of live line, and the other end of electric wire is connected with battery 21 through charging conduit 22.Pad 27 is circular, and be fixed on the inwall of charging conduit 22, spring 25 is positioned over the outer end of pad 27, charging inlet 26 is positioned over the outer end of pad 27, pad 28 is circular, is installed on the outer end of charging inlet 26, is fixed on by charging inlet within charging conduit 22.Pad 27 and pad 28 be arranged so that charging inlet 26 can be fixed on the termination of charging conduit 22, move along with the movement of charging conduit 22, spring 25 be arranged so that charging inlet 26 charge time can insert in aircraft smoothly, the unlikely retrogressing that bounces back due to Cat-in resisting force.
Utilize the utility model carry out aircraft automatically land location method comprise the following steps:
Step 1, aircraft are provided with GPS registration device, first utilize described GPS registration device to carry out accuracy rate for other location of decimeter grade to landing place;
Step 2, aircraft are provided with camera and computing chip, camera catches shooting beacon 4, and after being calculated to computing chip process by image transmitting, by geometric size and the angular relationship of beacon, carrying out accuracy rate to landing place is other location of Centimeter Level; Specifically comprise:
Utilize the size of beacon, judge the height of aircraft;
Utilize the angle of aircraft and beacon, that judge aircraft with relative position that is beacon.
When beacon is infrared beacon, aircraft is provided with the infrared camera matched; When beacon is visual beacon, aircraft is provided with the white light camera matched.Aircraft can also be provided with super sonic or radar installation, then in this step, super sonic or radar installation can be used further to carry out accuracy rate for other location of Centimeter Level to the flying height of aircraft.
Step 3, aircraft drop to aircraft landing gear with charging slide rail 3 contact time, the alighting gear of aircraft and described location charging unit carry out machinery and locate.
Figure 17 is the procedure chart that aircraft is located automatically.Aircraft in the present embodiment is the aircraft of a straight rod-shaped alighting gear.State a is the positioning states of above-mentioned steps 1 and step 2, and aircraft, before landing, first by GPS location technology, roughly navigates to the position of charging unit, catches beacon afterwards by camera, navigates to the position of charging slide rail 3.State b is the mechanical positioning states of aircraft, in the prior art, the accuracy rate of locating via beacon is in a centimetre rank, the absolutely accuracy of locating can not be ensured, so in state b, aircraft is not aimed at directly over charging slide rail 3 completely, and the alighting gear of aircraft both sides can not ensure the both sides being just positioned at charging slide rail 3.But because charging slide rail 3 is ridges, as long as the deviation position of the alighting gear of both sides does not cross the lug boss of charging slide rail 3, alighting gear just can be slipped to correct position along the slope of charging slide rail 3 automatically, and namely the alighting gear of aircraft both sides finally can lay respectively at the depressed part of charging slide rail 3 both sides.The c state of Fig. 9 is the state that aircraft is adjusted to tram, now aircraft can continue automatically to slide along charging slide rail 3, and its alighting gear is contacted with fixed hook 5, after fixed hook 5 senses just, automatically by the alighting gear fastening of aircraft, process of charging can be started.
After process of charging starts, charging conduit conveyer operates automatically, the rotatable gear 24 that support 25 top is installed rotates, drive sawtooth rod 23 moving linearlies, because charging conduit 22 is fixed on sawtooth rod 23, then the conduit 22 that charges also does branch line motion, stretches out hole 6 stretch out outside charging box 2 via charging conduit, be connected with aircraft, complete process of charging.
In the utility model, the whole aligning of aircraft, landing, adjustment position and process of charging, all without the need to manual intervention, can complete automatically.
Above-described is only preferred implementation of the present utility model, and the utility model is not limited to above embodiment.Be appreciated that the oher improvements and changes that those skilled in the art directly derive or associate under the prerequisite not departing from spirit of the present utility model and design, all should think and be included within protection domain of the present utility model.
