Definitions
- the technology of the present disclosure relates to flying objects.
- Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2020-100396 discloses an aircraft provided with four or more ascending/forward propellers and fixed wings for horizontal flight on the front, back, left, and right of the aircraft.
- the technology of the present disclosure aims to provide a flying object capable of suppressing the decrease in lift force due to eddy currents.
- an aircraft includes a pair of fixed wings provided on the left and right sides of a main body, and provided at the tip of each of the pair of fixed wings, the main body a mounting portion having a side surface facing away from the mounting portion; a front support column provided on the front side of the mounting portion in the direction of travel of the aircraft; and a rear side provided on the rear side of the mounting portion in the direction of travel of the aircraft.
- a support column an aircraft propeller attached to the tip of the front support column that generates a propulsive force for flying the aircraft as an aircraft, and an aircraft motor that rotates the aircraft propeller;
- Propulsion for flying the aircraft as a multicopter which is attached to each of the rear lower side or upper side of the rear side support column and the tip of an extension support column extending upward or downward from the front side of the front side support column.
- An aircraft comprising: a multicopter propeller that generates lift in a direction that intersects the direction of force; and a multicopter motor that rotates the multicopter propeller, wherein the aircraft motor rotates the aircraft propeller to: The aircraft propeller is rotated so that the air passing through the propeller flows in a direction that suppresses a vortex generated by a pressure difference between the upper side and the lower side of the fixed wing.
- the multicopter motor attached to the tip of the extension support column rotates the multicopter propeller when the aircraft motor rotates the aircraft propeller.
- the propeller is rotated so that the air that has passed through the propeller flows in a direction that suppresses the vortex.
- a first aspect of the technology of the present disclosure can suppress a decrease in lift force due to vortex currents.
- the second aspect of the technology of the present disclosure can further suppress the reduction in lift force due to vortex currents.
- FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view showing the configuration of an unmanned air vehicle 10;
- FIG. 2 is a front view of the unmanned air vehicle 10 as seen from the front side in the traveling direction;
- FIG. 1 shows a vortex called the tip of a fixed wing of an airplane;
- the unmanned flying object 10 has a configuration for flying as an aircraft and a configuration for flying as a four-propeller multicopter.
- the number of propellers is not limited to four, and may be, for example, three, five, six, seven, eight, or the like.
- the configuration of the unmanned air vehicle 10 as an aircraft includes a pair of fixed wings 14L, 14R provided on the left and right sides of the main body 12, and a pair of fixed wings 14L, 14R provided at the tip of each of the fixed wings 14L, 14R.
- the configuration of the propeller of the unmanned aircraft 10 as a multicopter includes a multicopter propeller 20L provided below (or above) the tip end of each of the rear support columns 16L2 and 16R2 provided on the rear side of the mounting portions 16L1 and 16R1. , 20R and the front side support columns 16L3 and 16R3 provided on the front side of the mounting portions 16L1 and 16R1. 24R and multicopter motors 18L, 18R, 22L and 22R for rotating these multicopter propellers 20L, 20R, 24L and 24R.
- FIG. 2 shows a diagram of the unmanned air vehicle 10 viewed from the front in the traveling direction.
- FIG. 3 shows a pair of conventional fixed wings 14L and 14R, which are not provided with square pole-shaped mounting portions 16L1 and 16R1 at their tips, viewed from the front side in the traveling direction.
- a vortex flow is generated in a direction A from the lower side to the upper side due to the pressure difference between the upper side and the lower side of the fixed blades 14L, 14R.
- a counterclockwise vortex flow is generated around the tip of the left fixed blade 14L, and a clockwise vortex flow is produced around the tip of the right fixed blade 14R.
- the aircraft motors 26L and 26R rotate the aircraft propellers 28L and 28R in order to generate propulsive force, and the direction ( -A) is rotated so as to flow.
- the air passing through the aircraft propeller 28L flows clockwise, and the air passing through the aircraft propeller 28R flows counterclockwise.
- the clockwise airflow that has passed through the aircraft propeller 28L suppresses the counterclockwise swirl around the tip of the left fixed wing 14L.
- the counterclockwise airflow that has passed through the aircraft propeller 28R suppresses the clockwise vortex flow around the tip of the right fixed wing 14R. Therefore, in this embodiment, eddy currents can be suppressed.
- the mounting portions 16L1 and 16R1 in the shape of a quadrangular prism are provided at the tips of the pair of fixed wings 14L and 14R, respectively, so eddy currents can be suppressed in this respect as well.
- the multicopter motors 22L and 22R attached to the ends of the extension support columns 16L4 and 16R4 are designed to rotate the aircraft propellers 28L and 28R.
- the propellers 24L and 24R are rotated so that the air flows in a direction (specifically, downward) that suppresses the swirl. Therefore, eddy currents can be suppressed in this respect as well.
- the downward airflow from the multicopter propeller 24L suppresses the counterclockwise vortex around the tip of the left fixed wing 14L.
- the downward airflow from the multicopter propeller 24R suppresses the clockwise swirl around the tip of the right fixed wing 14R.
- the vortex can be suppressed, and the angle of attack of the unmanned flying object 10 is increased.
- an unmanned flying object was taken as an example, but the technology of the present disclosure is not limited to this, and a manned flying object may be used.
