Description

A punching press shape preserving flexible tank and unmanned aerial vehicle for it hangs rope and retrieves unmanned aerial vehicle
Technical Field
The utility model belongs to the technical field of fuel oil system, especially, relate to a punching press shape preserving flexible fuel tank and unmanned aerial vehicle that is used for the hook rope recovery unmanned aerial vehicle.
Background
The small and medium-sized unmanned aerial vehicle has wide application prospect in military and civil fields, is rapidly developed in related fields at home and abroad, but has no mature and reliable oil tank product aiming at the aircraft at present at home, and does not form corresponding industrial standards and references.
The unmanned aerial vehicle is more sensitive to weight when medium and small-sized long is navigated, and its inner space is less, and the structure is relatively complicated moreover. This requires that the tank be able to accommodate the cabin structure and take full advantage of its space, while having the least possible empty weight to accommodate more fuel. Therefore, the traditional metal hard oil tank is not preferred, the empty weight is large, and the manufacture and the replacement of the oil tank with a complex structure are relatively difficult.
In contrast, small model airplanes generally use plastic fuel tanks. The plastic oil tank needs to be opened when being manufactured, belongs to a hard oil tank, and has poor adaptability to complex structures. And its material has decided this kind of oil tank to be difficult to satisfy unmanned aerial vehicle high low temperature environment's requirement, and from the experience of use, its reliability and life-span of long-term use also are all difficult to guarantee.
In this context, it is a good choice to use rubber or other materials for the soft fuel tank, and the harb drone in the united states uses the so-called membrane fuel tank, but the materials and the manufacture are not disclosed.
The soft oil tank can adopt two schemes of a thin film vacuum oil tank and a ventilation soft oil tank. Air does not advance all the time in the film vacuum oil tank, along with the continuous consumption of fuel, the oil tank shrinks gradually, though has the advantage of zero residual oil, but produces the fuel feeding untimely between the main and the auxiliary fuel tank easily, shortcomings such as the fixed difficulty of oil tank, unsuitable for being used for the great unmanned aerial vehicle in oil tank. The soft ventilation oil tank firstly solves the problem of a source of pressurized gas, and secondly solves the problem that when the amount of fuel in the tank is less, the fuel supply pipe can possibly admit air to cause unstable work of an engine or even flameout, so that zero residual fuel is difficult to achieve, and the amount of residual fuel can only be reduced as much as possible.
The small and medium-sized long-endurance unmanned aerial vehicle generally adopts a piston engine with low oil consumption rate as power, and an oil tank is generally formed by connecting a plurality of oil tanks in series/in parallel, wherein one oil tank is used as an oil supply tank. For the multiple oil tank schemes, if the fuel oil in the auxiliary oil tank cannot effectively flow into the oil supply tank in time, the residual oil of the oil tank is more finally, and the problem of unsmooth oil supply may occur in the process, which is very unfavorable for the stable operation of the engine. Therefore, how to make the fuel in each secondary fuel tank flow into the fuel supply tank effectively and completely in time is the key of multi-fuel-tank fuel supply, and there are two methods generally: one relying on gravity and the other relying on the introduction of pressurized gas from the engine or the like. For small and medium-sized unmanned aerial vehicles, the height difference between the oil tanks is limited, and it is unrealistic to make the fuel oil in the auxiliary oil tank flow into the oil supply tank timely and effectively by means of gravity; for the piston engine, it is difficult to extract continuously stable pressurized gas. Even for turbine engines, bleed air generally needs to be treated by pressure reduction, temperature reduction, etc., and bleed air causes a power loss of the engine.
The ram air flow can make the wall surface of the auxiliary oil tank expand and cling to the inner wall of the oil tank all the time. When fuel in the auxiliary fuel tank is not completely pressed into the fuel supply tank, the fuel supply tank may collapse to a certain extent due to limited stamping capability, and the soft fuel tank just can meet the deformation requirement. However, after the fuel in the auxiliary fuel tank is completely pressed into the fuel supply tank, the stamping air flow rapidly rushes into the fuel supply tank, so that the fuel supply tank is expanded to be tightly attached to the inner wall of the fuel tank, and at the moment, if the posture of the unmanned aerial vehicle is greatly changed, the fuel in the fuel supply tank may flow back to the main fuel tank. In the case where the remaining oil in the oil supply tank is small, the fuel supply may be interrupted by the backflow of the fuel.
Because of the limitation of using conditions, the taking-off and landing of small and medium-sized unmanned aerial vehicles are key processes, for example, the taking-off and landing of ships and reefs with narrow space, runways, vehicle-mounted taking-off and the like are unrealistic, and the recovery of wingtip hook hanging ropes adopted at present is an effective measure. One problem that is brought about by hook recovery is that after the rope is hung, the wings of the unmanned aerial vehicle are in a vertical state, and the left wing or the right wing is hung randomly, so that residual oil in the oil tank can leak out through the vent pipe. The traditional solution to this problem is to use a one-way valve in the snorkel, which in turn has a certain impact on space and weight.
