확장부재(110)가 V자 형으로 개방된 상태에서는 확장부재(110) 내부에 위치한 암(120)이 신장되어 보다 용이하게 드론(2)이 확장부재(110)를 따라 슬라이딩 되면서 안착부(100)에 안착이 가능해진다.In a state in which the extension member 110 is opened in a V-shape, the arm 120 located inside the extension member 110 is extended so that the drone 2 slides along the extension member 110 more easily, and the seating part 100 ) can be mounted on

확장부재(110)은 안착부(100), 세정부(200)까지 몸체부(10)에 연결되어 작동되고, 배터리교체부(400), 및 이륙부(500)에는 설치되어 있지 않아도 된다.The extension member 110 is connected to the body portion 10 up to the seating portion 100 and the cleaning portion 200 and is operated, and does not need to be installed in the battery replacement portion 400 and the take-off portion 500 .

또한, 안착부(100)에 위치한 확장부재(110)는 신장가능한 암(120)이 내장되어 있고, 세정부(200)에 위치한 확장부재(110)의 경우에는 암(120)은 내장되지 않고, 대신 매니폴더(210)가 확장부재(110)의 내부면에 내장되고 매니폴더(210)에 연결된 복수개의 노즐(220)이 확장부재(110)의 안쪽으로 향해 배열되어 세정액이 분사가능하다.In addition, the extension member 110 located in the seating unit 100 has a built-in extensible arm 120, and in the case of the extension member 110 located in the cleaning unit 200, the arm 120 is not built-in, Instead, the manifold 210 is built into the inner surface of the extension member 110 , and a plurality of nozzles 220 connected to the manifold 210 are arranged toward the inside of the extension member 110 , so that the cleaning liquid can be sprayed.

도 4는 본 발명에 따른 드론 베이스 스테이션의 세정단계를 나타내는 개략도이다.4 is a schematic diagram showing a cleaning step of a drone base station according to the present invention.

도 4에 도시된 바와 같이, 드론 베이스 스테이션(1)의 세정단계에서는 드론이 해상에서 운영하다보니 염수나 이물질에 노출되어 부식등의 우려가 있어 이를 스팀방식으로 세정함으로써 드론의 수명을 연장해주기 위한 단계이다.As shown in FIG. 4 , in the cleaning step of the drone base station 1, since the drone is operated at sea, there is a risk of corrosion due to exposure to salt water or foreign substances. is a step

세정부(200)는 세정액 탱크(230)에 보관된 세정액을 세정액 펌프(미도시)를 이용하여 펌핑하고, 제2제어부(240)가 제어함으로써, 확장부재(110)의 안쪽 측면에 매립된 매니폴더(210)에 공급하고, 매니폴더(210)에 복수개 설치되어 있는 노즐(220)을 통해 분사시킨다.The cleaning unit 200 pumps the cleaning liquid stored in the cleaning liquid tank 230 using a cleaning liquid pump (not shown), and by controlling the second control unit 240 , the manifold embedded in the inner side of the expansion member 110 . It is supplied to the folder 210 and sprayed through the nozzles 220 installed in a plurality of the manifold 210 .

이때 분사 형태는 스팀 분사일 수 있다.In this case, the injection form may be steam injection.

노즐(220)을 통해 분사된 분사액은 드론(2)에 부착된 이물질과 염분을 제거하는 효과가 있다.The injection liquid injected through the nozzle 220 has an effect of removing foreign substances and salts attached to the drone 2 .

도 5는 본 발명에 따른 드론 베이스 스테이션에서 드론을 이륙시킨 후 확장부재를 접은 상태를 나타내는 개략도이다.5 is a schematic view showing a state in which the extension member is folded after taking off the drone from the drone base station according to the present invention.

도 5에 도시된 바와 같이, 드론(2)이 드론 베이스 스테이션(1)의 이륙부(400)에서 이륙되면 확장부재(110)가 불필요하게 되므로 확장부재(110)의 신장된 암(120)을 확장부재(110) 내부로 인입시키고, 확장부재(110)는 몸체부(10)의 상단에 밀착되도록 접어서 평행한 상태를 유지시킨다.As shown in FIG. 5 , when the drone 2 takes off from the take-off unit 400 of the drone base station 1 , the extension member 110 becomes unnecessary, so the extended arm 120 of the extension member 110 is removed. The extension member 110 is drawn into the interior, and the extension member 110 is folded so as to be in close contact with the upper end of the body portion 10 to maintain a parallel state.
