Arm and unmanned aerial vehicle
The present invention relates to the field of air vehicle technologies and provides an arm, a power assembly and an unmanned aerial vehicle. The arm includes a principal arm and an auxiliary arm. The principal arm is mounted on the vehicle body and the principal arm can rotate relative to the vehicle body. One end of the auxiliary arm is connected to the principal arm. The auxiliary arm can rotate relative to the principal arm. In the foregoing manner, an unmanned aerial vehicle having the arm is compact in structure, small in volume and easy to carry after being folded.
1. An arm, applied to an unmanned aerial vehicle, wherein the unmanned aerial vehicle comprises a vehicle body and the arm comprising:
a principal vehicle arm, wherein the principal arm is mounted on the vehicle body and the principal arm is rotatable relative to the vehicle body; and
an auxiliary arm, wherein one end of the auxiliary arm is connected to the principal arm and the auxiliary arm is rotatable relative to the principal arm;
wherein the number of the arms is two and each arm comprises one principal arm, two auxiliary arms and one connector, two respective ends of the two principal arms respectively mounted on two opposite sides of the vehicle body, the principal arms capable of rotating relative to the vehicle body and the other end of the principal arm hingedly connected to the connector;
a plane on which tracks formed by rotating of each principal arm is perpendicular to a plane on which tracks formed by rotating of an auxiliary arm on the same side of the vehicle body.
2. The arm according to claim 1 , wherein the other end of the auxiliary arm is used for mounting a driving apparatus.
3. The arm according to claim 1 , wherein the two auxiliary arms are respectively connected to two ends of the connector; and when the arm is folded, the principal arm comes into contact with the vehicle body, one auxiliary arm overlaps the other auxiliary arm and the two auxiliary arms overlap the principal arm after the one auxiliary arm rotating by 180 degrees.
4. The arm according to claim 1 , wherein for two auxiliary arms located on a same side, one end of one auxiliary arm is hingedly connected to the connector and one end of the other auxiliary arm is fixedly connected to the connector.
5. The arm according to claim 4 , wherein when the arm is unfolded, two auxiliary arms located on a same side are located on a same straight line and are perpendicular to the principal arm.
6. An unmanned aerial vehicle, comprising:
a vehicle body;
an arm, wherein the arm is connected to the principal arm;
a driving apparatus, wherein the driving apparatus is mounted on the auxiliary arm; and
a propeller, wherein the propeller is mounted on the driving apparatus, driven by the driving apparatus to generate a lift force or a propulsive force, wherein
the arm comprises:
a principal vehicle arm, wherein the principal arm is mounted on the vehicle body and the principal arm is rotatable relative to the vehicle body; and
an auxiliary arm, wherein one end of the auxiliary arm is connected to the principal arm and the auxiliary arm is rotatable relative to the principal arm;
wherein the number of the arms is two and each arm comprises one principal arm, two auxiliary arms and one connector, two respective ends of the two principal arms respectively mounted on two opposite sides of the vehicle body, the principal arms capable of rotating relative to the vehicle body and the other end of the principal arm hingedly connected to the connector;
a plane on which tracks formed by rotating of each principal arm is perpendicular to a plane on which tracks formed by rotating of an auxiliary arm on the same side of the vehicle body.
7. The unmanned aerial vehicle according to claim 6 , wherein the other end of the auxiliary arm is used for mounting a driving apparatus.
8. The unmanned aerial vehicle according to claim 6 , wherein the two auxiliary arms are respectively connected to two ends of the connector; and when the arm is folded, the principal arm comes into contact with the vehicle body, one auxiliary arm overlaps the other auxiliary arm after rotating by 180 degrees and the two auxiliary arms overlap the principal arm.
9. The unmanned aerial vehicle according to claim 6 , wherein for two auxiliary arms located on a same side, one end of one auxiliary arm is hingedly connected to the connector and one end of the other auxiliary arm is fixedly connected to the connector.
10. The unmanned aerial vehicle according to claim 9 , wherein when the arm is unfolded, two auxiliary arms located on a same side are located on a same straight line and are perpendicular to the principal arm.
