The lifting portion 20 has a structure in which a first driving body 31 of the driving portion 30 is coupled to a connecting rod connected to the fixed wing 11 and a propeller 21 is attached to the upper end of the first driving body 31 .

The first driving body 31 includes a first motor 31a and a second motor 31b formed on the front and rear sides of the left fixed wing 11 and a third motor 31b formed on the front and rear sides of the right fixed wing 11, A first motor 31c and a fourth motor 31d.

The driving body 30 further includes a second driving body 32 for driving the thrust section 40 at the rear of the body 10 and a second driving body 32 for driving the vertical tail wing 50, And a third driving body 33 for adjusting the driving force.

The second driving body 32 in the body 10 comprises a driving motor or a driving engine and is operated through electricity or fuel to rotate the thrust part 40.

The vertical rudder 51 of the vertical tail wing 50 is operated through an electric motor.

The lifting portion 20 includes a first motor 31a, a second motor 31b and a third motor 31c of the first driving body 31 provided on the front and rear sides of the left and right fixed wings 11, And a fourth motor 31d.

A propeller 21 is coupled to the upper side of the first motor 31a, the second motor 31b, the third motor 31c and the fourth motor 31d to generate a buoyant force by driving the propeller.

A duct for protecting the propeller 21 from being damaged by colliding with an external object may be coupled to the outside of the propeller 21 of the lifting unit 20.

The rotation speed of the first motor 31a to the fourth motor 31d of the lifting unit 20 is controlled by the control signal of the controller 60 so that the body 10 can be moved forward, backward, And so on.

A method of adjusting the direction through the lifting portion 20 is as follows.

The first motor 31a to the fourth motor 31d coupled to the front, back, right, and left four sides of the lifting unit 20 are controlled to change direction, rotate in place, and adjust sliding of the body 10.

The speed of the first motor 31a and the third motor 31c located on the front side of the fixed blade 11 is reduced and the speed of the fixed blade 11 is reduced. The speed of the second motor 31b and the fourth motor 31d installed at the rear side is increased to advance the body 10 in a forward inclined state.

The speed of the first motor 31a and the speed of the third motor 31c is increased while the speed of the second motor 31b and the speed of the fourth motor 31d is reduced to increase the speed of the moving body 10, So that it can be moved upward while being inclined upward.

The first motor 31a and the second motor 31b are decelerated and the third motor 31c and the fourth motor 31d are accelerated to be tilted to the left when the body 10 is moved to the left The first motor 31a and the second motor are accelerated and the third motor 31c and the fourth motor 31d are decelerated to be tilted to the right when the body 10 is moved to the right The lower body 10 moves to the right.

The vertical rudder 51 of the vertical tail wing 50 is adjusted when the body 10 is shifted in the lateral direction during the forward movement.

When the direction of the moving body 10 is rapidly shifted while the moving body 10 is moving in the front and left and right directions, when the opposite side lifting portion 20 in the corresponding direction is accelerated to be inclined in the direction to rotate the moving body 10, So that the moving body 10 can swing rapidly.

When the body 10 is rotated in place during hovering, two diagonal motors are accelerated and rotated.

The first motor 31a and the third motor 31c are operated to increase the speed of the second motor 31b and the fourth motor in order to cause the body 10 to turn to the left, It can be increased.

The reason why the second motor 31b can rotate in the above-described manner is that the second motor 31b and the fourth motor 31d are rotated in the same clockwise direction and the first motor 31a and the third motor 31c rotate in the counterclockwise direction .

Each motor of the first driving body 31 of the lifting unit 20 may be rotated in the opposite direction, and in this case, the motor is rotated in the opposite direction.

When the body 10 slides in any one of the forward, backward, and leftward directions, the motor in the sliding direction is accelerated and hovered in place.

The attitude control such as moving and hovering of the body 10 is performed through a flight control computer using position information measured by a three-axis acceleration sensor, a three-axis gyroscope, an air pressure sensor, a ground sensor, and a GPS sensor.

The first driving body 31 of the lifting portion 20 may be operated using the power source of the battery 63 of the power portion and the motor may be constituted of the engine and operated through the fuel of the fuel tank.

The thrust section 40 is formed behind the moving body 10 and is driven by the second driving body 32. The thrust propeller 21 is formed so as to move the moving body 10 forward or backward.

The vertical rudder 51 formed on the vertical tail wing 50 of the body part 10 is rotated in the left and right direction through the third drive body 33 to control the yaw phenomenon of the body part 10, And controls the direction change of the moving body 10 at the time of advancing.

The third driving body 33 may be an electric motor or an engine.

The control unit 60 is connected to the driving unit 30 that drives the lifting unit 20, the vertical rudder 51 and the thrust unit 40 to control the operation of the driving unit 30.

The control unit 60 is connected to the first communication module 61 so that the control unit 60 can control the driving unit 30 through the steering signal transmitted from the external manipulator 70. The state of the driving unit 30 Information is transmitted to the external manipulator 70 for display.

The power generation unit 62 is connected to the driving unit 30 to generate power and the power generated by the power generation unit 62 is stored in the battery 63 to apply power to the control unit 60 and the driving unit 30 . Power generation of the power generation unit 62 is performed by transmitting a rotational force between the engine rotation shaft and the rotation shaft of the generator through a chain or a gear when the engine is used as thrust.

The external manipulator 70 that transmits the manipulation signal through the wireless communication to the first communication module 61 includes an input means input by the user and an input signal of the input means 72 for manipulating the body 10, A control unit 71 that receives the control signal and wirelessly transmits the control signal through the second communication module 74; a driving unit 30 that is transmitted from the control unit 60 of the moving body 10 through the first communication module 61; And a second communication module 74 for wirelessly transmitting the control signal of the control unit 71 to the first communication module 61. [

When the operation of the body 10 is controlled by the external controller 70 through the input means 72, the input signal inputted through the input means 72 is displayed on the display unit 73, The display unit 73 receives the status signal of the display unit 30 and displays the status signal.
