At this time, when the charge stop signal is sent from the charge control unit 210, the coupling control module 233 can remove the magnetic field of the magnetic core of the current transformer 113 by converting the magnetic demolition device 233a into the operation mode, The coupling control module 233 converts the magnetic demolition device 233a into the suspend mode and outputs the magnetic field to the current transformer 113 when the distance between the distance sensor 150 and the camera 330 is equal to or greater than a predetermined first distance value. It is possible to stop the magnetic field removal of the magnetic core of the magnetic core.

When the distance between the power line 150 and the distance sensor 310 or the camera 330 is less than the predetermined second distance value, the coupling control module 233 transmits the collision risk signal to the unmanned flight control device 130, And the power line 150 may be prevented.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a charging method of a power line charging unmanned aerial vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, a charging method 500 of a power line charging unmanned aerial vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a step S510 of determining whether a power charging is required, a step S520 of determining a charging position, (S530), determining whether the power line coupling is correct (S540), starting charging (S550), and determining whether charging is completed (S560).

Hereinafter, the charging method according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described using the power line charging unmanned aerial vehicle shown in FIG. 2A for convenience of explanation, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

The charging method 500 of the power line charging unmanned aerial vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention first determines whether power charging is required (step S510). The charge controller of the unmanned aerial vehicle checks the remaining power of the battery at predetermined intervals. If the detected power remaining amount is larger than the predetermined first set value, the charge control unit repeatedly checks the remaining power of the battery. If the remaining power is less than the first set value, It is possible to send a charging request signal.

Next, the charging position is determined (step S520). The unmanned aerial vehicle uses the power line search module to search for the location of the nearest chargeable power line. At this time, the unmanned aerial vehicle can determine the position of the nearest power line that can be charged to the charging position, or the power line at various positions such as the power line at an appropriate distance or the power line nearest to the flight path, .

In addition, the unmanned aerial vehicle may preferably determine a charging position by using a navigation device such as a GPS (not shown) or the like. By measuring the magnitude of a magnetic field using a magnetic field sensor (not shown) To determine the charging position.

Next, the unmanned aerial vehicle combines with the power line of the determined charging position (step S530). The unmanned aerial vehicle combines with the power line at the determined charging position using the power line coupling member. At this time, the coupling control module controls the opening and closing of the power line coupling member by using the distance between the power line, the distance sensor, or the camera included in the distance information acquired through the distance sensor or the camera, It is possible to perform the coupling with the power line.

Here, the coupling control module includes a magnetic eliminator, which, in the operating mode, can remove the magnetic field of the magnetic core of the current transformer and, in the stop mode, can stop the magnetic field removal of the magnetic core of the current transformer have.

When the charging request signal is transmitted from the charge control unit in step S510, the coupling control module can open the power line coupling member when the distance between the power line and the distance sensor or the camera is equal to or less than the predetermined first distance value, Value is reached, the coupling control module can close the power line coupling member.

In this case, if the distance between the power line and the distance sensor or the camera is less than the predetermined first distance value, the coupling control module may convert the magnetic removing device into the operation mode to remove the magnetic field of the magnetic core of the current transformer, Value is reached, it is possible to stop the magnetic field removal of the magnetic core of the current transformer by converting the self-removing device to the stop mode.

At this time, the power line coupling member can be coupled with the power line by inserting the power line into the through hole provided in the power line coupling member. At this time, the power line coupling member is configured to be openable and closable, and the through hole can be opened or closed in a rotating or sliding manner so that a power line can be inserted into the through hole.

Next, the unmanned aerial vehicle determines whether coupling with the power line is completed (step S540). When the distance between the power line and the distance sensor or the camera does not coincide with the second distance value, the coupling control module of the unmanned aerial vehicle determines that the coupling with the power line is not completed and repeats step S530 to rejoin the power line .

Next, if it is determined that the coupling with the power line is completed, the unmanned airplane device starts charging the battery (step S550).

The unmanned aerial vehicle generates inductive power using a magnetic field generated from the power line, and charges the battery using the generated power. At this time, the unmanned aerial vehicle can generate induction power by using a current transformer included in the charging unit.

When the power line is inserted into the through hole of the power line coupling member, the current transformer can generate electric power using the current flowing through the power line. The current transformer includes a magnetic core and a coil, generates a magnetic field using a magnetic field generated from the power line, and the unmanned aerial vehicle can charge the battery using the induced power generated by the current transformer.

Finally, the unmanned aerial vehicle determines whether charging is completed (step S560). The unmanned aerial vehicle uses a charge control unit to check the remaining power of the battery. At this time, if the remaining power of the battery is smaller than the predetermined second set value, the charge control unit determines that the charge is not completed and returns to step S550 to continue charging.

On the other hand, when the remaining power of the battery is equal to or greater than the predetermined second set value, the charge controller determines that the charge is completed and sends a charge stop signal. At this time, the coupling control module opens the power line coupling member, and when the distance between the power line and the distance sensor or the camera is equal to or larger than the predetermined first distance value, the power line coupling member is closed to release the coupling between the power line and the power line charging unmanned flight device And the unmanned aerial vehicle can continue to fly.

When the charge stop signal is transmitted from the charge control section, the coupling control module can convert the magnetic remover to the operation mode to remove the magnetic field of the magnetic core of the current transformer, and the distance between the power line and the distance sensor or the camera The coupling control module can convert the magnetic removal device into the stop mode and stop the magnetic field removal of the magnetic core of the current transformer.
