That is, the cylindrical drone system 101 according to an embodiment of the present invention can be stored, transported, and carried in the state shown in FIG. 1.

The body portion 310 may be composed of a plurality of modules that are detachably connected.

Specifically, the body portion 310 may include a flight module 312, a control communication module 313, a power module 314, and a mission module 315.

The flight module 312 can rotate the wings 380. For example, the flight module 312 may include a motor for rotating the wings 380 and a flight control device for controlling the flight direction.

The control communication module 313 is coupled to the lower part of the flight module 312 to control the operation of the flight module 312 and communicate with the user terminal.

In addition, the control unit can also control the operation of the mission module 315, which will be described later, according to the control signal received from the communication unit. And, depending on the type of mission module 315, the control unit may transmit various information collected by the mission module 315 to a remote user terminal through the communication unit of the control communication module.

Meanwhile, the control unit of the control communication module 313 controls the flight module 312 according to the control signal received from the user terminal, but even when the control signal is not received from the user terminal, the flight module ( 312) can be controlled. For example, when the flight path of the cylindrical drone 300 deviates from the preset target path, the flight module 312 can be automatically controlled to return the cylindrical drone 300 to the target path. In addition, the control unit may automatically control the mission module 315, which will be described later, to perform its mission when the flight module 312 arrives at the target point.

Additionally, the power module 314 can also supply electrical energy to the mission module 315, which will be described later, if necessary. And the power module 314 may be detachably connected in series to one or more of the upper part of the flight module 312 and the lower part of the control communication module 313. 3 and 4 illustrate a state in which the power module 314 is detachably connected in series below the control communication module 313, but the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto. That is, the power module 314 may be detachably connected in series to the top of the flight module 312.

Additionally, a plurality of power modules 314 may be connected in series as needed. That is, if the cylindrical drone 300 must fly for a long time or requires a lot of electrical energy to perform the mission of the mission module 315, which will be described later, the control communication module 313 is within the weight range within which the flight module 312 can fly. ) The number of power modules 314 connected below can be increased as needed.

The mission module 315 performs its mission under the control of the control and communication module 313 and can receive electrical energy needed to perform its mission from the power module 314.

Additionally, the mission module 315 may be detachably connected in series to one or more of the upper portion of the flight module 312 and the lower portion of the control communication module 313. 3 and 4 illustrate a state in which the mission module 315 is detachably connected in series below the control communication module 313, but the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto. That is, the mission module 315 may be detachably connected in series to the upper part of the flight module 312. Additionally, if the power module 314 is first connected to the flight module 312 or the control communication module 313, the mission module 315 may be connected to the power module 314. Conversely, if the mission module 315 is first connected to the flight module 312 or the control communication module 313, the power module 314 may be connected to the mission module 315.

For example, the power module 314 and the mission module 315 are sequentially connected under the control communication module 313, or the mission module 315 and the power module 314 are sequentially connected under the control communication module 313. can be connected That is, Figures 3 and 4 exemplarily show a structure in which the power module 314 and the mission module 315 are sequentially connected below the control communication module 313, but the embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto. .

As such, the cylindrical drone 300 used in the cylindrical drone system 101 according to an embodiment of the present invention may have various combinations of cylindrical stacked structures.

Additionally, in order for the cylindrical drone 300 to perform a complex mission, a plurality of mission modules 315 for performing different missions may be connected.

In this way, when one or more of the power module 314 and the mission module 315 are connected in plural, the power module 314 and the mission module 315 are located on the top of the flight module 312 or the control communication module 313. The order of connection to the lower part of can be selectively determined.

For example, when one or more power modules 314 and one or more mission modules 315 are sequentially connected in series under the control communication module 313, one or more power modules 314 connected under the control communication module 313 And among the one or more mission modules 315, a heavier module may be placed relatively lower. In order to improve the flight stability of the cylindrical drone 300, it is advantageous to lower the center of gravity so that it is less affected by the wind. Therefore, among several modules connected in series below the control communication module 313, the module with a heavier weight is placed relatively lower. You can choose to place it in .

Additionally, depending on the type of mission module 315, the mission module 315 may be placed at the bottom for convenience of mission performance.

As another example, when the cylindrical drone 300 is to operate in a high-speed maneuver, one or more of the power module 314 and the mission module 315 may be connected to the upper part of the flight module 200. As the center of gravity of the cylindrical drone 300 increases, it becomes advantageous for high-speed maneuvering. Accordingly, when the power module 314 or the mission module 315 is connected to the upper part of the flight module 200, the cylindrical drone 300 becomes advantageous for operating in a high-speed maneuvering manner.

As described above, lowering the center of gravity of the cylindrical drone 300 improves the stability of low-speed maneuvering, and increasing the center of gravity of the cylindrical drone 300 is advantageous for high-speed maneuvering. Accordingly, the user can configure the cylindrical drone 300 to suit the operating method of the cylindrical drone 300 by selectively adjusting the placement positions of the power module 314 and the mission module.

Meanwhile, among the control communication module 313, power module 314, and mission module 315, a coupling portion formed at the top of the module and a coupling portion formed at the bottom of the module may be coupled in a male-female fastening manner. For example, a female coupling portion may be formed at the lower end of the control communication module 313 and the lower portion of the power module 314, and a male coupling portion may be formed at the upper portion of the power module 314 and the upper portion of the mission module 315. . In addition, each female coupling portion and the male coupling portion may be provided to be mutually interchangeable.

The mission module 315 may include an observation module, a lighting module, a sensor module, a communication relay module, a fire extinguishing module, a smoke module, and a bomb module.

The observation module can carry out observation missions by mounting optical equipment. The cylindrical drone 300 equipped with this observation module performs various tasks, such as transmitting image information captured at the target point to the user terminal or automatically tracking and observing the observed target under the control of the control communication module 313. It can be done.

The communication relay module can perform the task of extending the communication range. The cylindrical drone 300 equipped with such a communication relay module can relay communication in a communication shadow area. For example, a user may fly a cylindrical drone 300 equipped with a communication relay module to attempt communication in a communication shadow area.

The bomb module can perform the mission of destroying the target. The cylindrical drone 300 equipped with such a bomb module can be used for military purposes or perform a detonation mission in a dangerous area that is difficult for humans to access.

For example, the bomb module can carry a variety of bombs, such as high explosive bombs, fragmentation bombs, or shaped charge bombs.

In addition, the mission module 315 includes a lighting module equipped with a light source, a sensor module for acquiring information about the climate and atmospheric environment or the surface environment, a fire extinguishing module for extinguishing a fire, and a smoke screen module for generating artificial smoke. It could be one of them.

In this way, the cylindrical drone 300 used in the cylindrical drone system 101 according to an embodiment of the present invention modularizes parts for each function, stacks them in the longitudinal direction, and combines them separately, thereby reducing the space in the horizontal direction. Not only does it take up a lot of space, but it can also easily replace modules to perform various tasks.

The base frame 510 may include a circular or polygonal ring shape. The base frame 510 may be arranged to face the other end of the body portion 310 of the cylindrical drone 300 when the cylindrical drone 300 is landed or stored.

The plurality of guide frames 520 are rotatably connected to the base frame 510. At this time, the plurality of guide frames 520 may be radially arranged and coupled to the base frame 510. Specifically, the plurality of guide frames 520 include a hinge portion 524 rotatably coupled to the base frame 510, and a hinge portion 524 extending from the hinge portion 524 to a ring-shaped inner region of the base frame 510. It includes a support portion 525 and a guide portion 523 extending from the hinge portion 524 so that the bridge angle with the support portion 525 forms an obtuse angle.

The plurality of foldable legs 560 can support the base frame 510 at a distance from the installation surface. Here, the installation surface is the surface on which the takeoff and landing support device 500 is placed and is not limited to the ground, and may be one surface of various equipment or objects. When these plurality of foldable legs 560 are folded, as previously shown in FIG. 1, the space occupied by the cylindrical drone system 101 when stored can be reduced and can be transported and carried. can become easier.

The guide network 540 may be provided between the plurality of guide frames 520 and connected to the guide portion 523. The guide network 540 assists the guide portion 523 of the plurality of guide frames 520. This guide net 540 may be made of various materials such as fabric, plastic, and metal.

First, as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, when the cylindrical drone 300 takes off and is separated from the takeoff and landing support device 500, the other end of the body portion 310 of the cylindrical drone 300 has a plurality of The force pressing the support portion 525 of the guide frame 520 disappears. Then, the plurality of guide frames 520 rotate due to the weight of the guide portion 523 of the plurality of guide frames 520, and the guide portion 523 opens to the outer area of the ring shape of the base frame 510. You lose.

To this end, the center of gravity of the plurality of guide frames 520 is basically set high so that the guide portion 523 naturally opens when the force pressing the support portion 525 disappears.

At this time, when the plurality of guide frames 520 rotate more than a preset angle in the direction in which the guide portions 523 of the plurality of guide frames 520 are opened, the support portions 525 interfere with each other and the plurality of guide frames 520 ) may be restricted from further rotation. Here, the preset angle can be set in various ways, for example, it can fall within the range of 120 degrees to 150 degrees.

In addition, the guide network 540 assists the guide portion 523 of the plurality of guide frames 520, so that the other end of the body portion 310 of the cylindrical drone 300 is guided when the cylindrical drone 300 lands. It is guided toward the support portion 525 of the frame 520.

Accordingly, even if the cylindrical drone 300 does not truly land at the correct point, it can naturally move to the correct location by the guide frame 520 and guide net 540 of the take-off and landing support device 500.

That is, when the cylindrical drone 300 lands within the radius of the takeoff and landing support device 500, the cylindrical drone 300 slides to the center of the takeoff and landing support device 500 by the guide frame 520 and the guide net 540.
