Abstract

To provide a flying object in which a working part can be close to an operation target at an appropriate distance the flying object according to the present disclosure includes a flight part including at least a plurality of rotary wings and a motor for driving the rotary wings, a main body elongated in a vertical direction, and a connection part that connects the flight part and the main body in a mutually displaceable manner, wherein a total length of the main body in the vertical direction is at least twice a maximum diameter of the flight part in a horizontal direction. The main body has an upper part that is provided above the connection portion, and a lower portion that is provided below the connection portion, and the length of the upper part is three times or more the length of the lower part.

Claims (43)

1. A flying object comprising:

a flight part including at least a plurality of rotary wings and a motor for driving the rotary wings;

a main body elongated in a vertical direction; and

a connection part that connects the flight part and the main body in a mutually displaceable manner, as a posture of the main body is being maintained irrespective of a posture of the flight part,

a working part mounted to the main body,

wherein the main body has an upper part that is provided above the connection portion, and a lower portion that is provided below the connection portion, and a length of the upper part is different from a length of the lower part,

wherein the flight part is fixed at a longitudinal position of the main body by the connection part.

2. The flying object according to claim 1 ,

wherein the length of the upper part is three times or more the length of the lower part.

3. The flying object according to claim 2 ,

wherein the lower part has a structure for at least balancing the upper part.

4. The flying object according to claim 1 ,

wherein the connection part is provided at a center of gravity or an approximate center of gravity of the main body.

5. The flying object according to claim 2 ,

wherein the connection part is provided at a center of gravity or an approximate center of gravity of the main body.

6. The flying object according to claim 3 ,

wherein the connection part is provided at a center of gravity or an approximate center of gravity of the main body.

7. The flying object according to claim 1 ,

wherein the working part can be mounted to a tip of the upper part.

8. The flying object according to claim 2 ,

wherein the working part can be mounted to a tip of the upper part.

9. The flying object according to claim 3 ,

wherein the working part can be mounted to a tip of the upper part.

10. The flying object according to claim 4 ,

wherein the working part can be mounted to a tip of the upper part.

11. The flying object according to claim 5 ,

wherein the working part can be mounted to a tip of the upper part.

12. The flying object according to claim 6 ,

wherein the working part can be mounted to a tip of the upper part.

13. The flying object according to claim 1 ,

wherein the lower part includes a leg part.

14. The flying object according to claim 1 ,

wherein the length of the lower part is three times or more the length of the upper part.

15. The flying object as set forth in claim 14 ,

wherein the lower part has a structure for at least balancing the upper part.

16. The flying object according to claim 14 ,

wherein the connection part is provided at a center of gravity or an approximate center of gravity of the main body.

17. The flying object according to claim 15 ,

wherein the connection part is provided at a center of gravity or an approximate center of gravity of the main body.

18. The flying object according to claim 14 ,

wherein the working part can be mounted to a tip of the lower part.

19. The flying object according to claim 1 ,

wherein the flight part is configured to be movable in the vertical direction along the main body.
