Drone delivery system and its delivery method {Drone delivery system and Its Delivery method}

The present invention relates to a drone delivery system that is installed outside a building and can safely and unmannedly receive parcels using a drone, and a delivery method using the same.

Recently, drones (unmanned aerial vehicles) have been commercialized and are being used in various fields such as camera photography.

In particular, as e-commerce becomes more common, drones are being used to deliver goods and are receiving great response from related industries. In the case of heavy or bulky goods, it is inevitable to use conventional transportation methods, but for small and small bulky goods, drones are receiving great response from related industries. In the case of goods, there is an advantage in increasing work efficiency by using drones instead of using conventional transportation equipment and manpower.

However, when using drones as a means of delivering goods these days, there is the inconvenience of having to personally receive the goods delivered by the drone to the recipient. This is because the drone cannot leave the goods near the recipient's residence when the recipient is absent.

In addition, since communal buildings such as apartments have high floors, there is no risk of loss even if a drone leaves items on the veranda or terrace, but there is a high risk of loss or theft in general residential areas without fences.

In addition, even if the goods are left behind, there is a very high risk that the goods will get wet and be damaged by rain or snow.

Meanwhile, recently, when delivering goods by manpower, there is an increasing number of cases of installing unmanned delivery boxes when there is no consignee. However, these existing unmanned delivery boxes were also developed on the premise of human delivery of goods, so they cannot be used for drone delivery. There is a problem.

When delivering goods with an unmanned flying drone using an existing unmanned delivery box, the drone may not accurately recognize the location information of the delivery box to be delivered, or communication regarding the dropping of goods may not be properly communicated between the delivery box and the drone. If this is not achieved, there is a risk that it may lead to a safety accident, and due to the unmanned nature of the operation, there is concern about the occurrence of theft accidents, and various delivery box structures are required according to various design environments, such as the installation area of the delivery box and the opening cross-sectional area. There are problems such as damage to goods dropped from the sky, causing problems with compensation for damages. In particular, most unmanned delivery boxes are installed inside buildings or in parking lots, so there is a problem that they cannot be applied to drones for delivering goods.

In addition, even when delivering mail to a high-rise building such as an apartment, the drone must be able to land the mail safely without causing damage due to a collision between the apartment wall and the drone wing while delivering the mail, and the number of apartment floors must be , the drone must be able to accurately recognize the height of each floor and the location coordinates of each floor for delivery, and as in a single-family home, damage to mail due to rain or snow should not occur on the veranda, so if countermeasures are not prepared, delivery by drone may occur. There is a problem that makes it difficult to actually use delivery.
