Description
The present invention relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle for collecting chemical samples.
In general, in case of a chemical accident where a chemical substance is spilled on the sea or land, it is necessary to know beforehand what kind of chemical substance contained in the spilled substance is contained in advance, .
Safety equipment and sampling equipment are necessary for incident response personnel to be able to take chemical samples directly from chemical accident sites. Safety devices include protective apparel, masks, gloves, protective breast boots, protective boots and gas masks.
However, the above method results in a delay in response time at the site of a chemical accident requiring rapid response. Also, it is impossible to precisely identify the chemical components released from the accident site until the incident response personnel collect the chemical sample, and thus the safety of the accident response personnel can not be guaranteed. In addition, there is also a problem that when accident response personnel can not access the site of a chemical accident, it is difficult to collect a sample of the spilled chemical components.
Therefore, in order to secure the safety of the accident response personnel, a technique for analyzing a chemical accident site using an unmanned device is being developed. However, the conventional method of responding to the accident using the unmanned equipment is limited to a camera, a sensor, and a communication system mounted on unmanned equipment, and monitoring the site using the mounted camera or sensing the material using the sensor.
Therefore, there is a growing need for an unmanned apparatus capable of easily collecting samples of a chemical accident site while ensuring the safety of accident response personnel.
According to the embodiment of the present invention, even if the accident response personnel do not directly enter the chemical accident site using the unmanned aerial vehicle having the structure that is easy to collect the chemical sample at the site of the chemical accident occurring on the land or the sea, can do.
In addition, a chemical sampling device corresponding to the material can be selectively coupled to the sample storage unit of the unmanned aerial vehicle according to the material to be sampled.

In addition, the power providing portion includes a motor for transmitting rotation force to the rotary vane by engaging with the rotary vane, a fixing portion for fixing the motor and forming a passage through which the external gas passes according to the air flow generated by the rotary vane, And a gas inlet through which the gas passing through the cylinder is introduced.
The sample storage unit is connected to the gas collecting pipe and the collecting pipe provided in the inside of the arm and through which the gas introduced from the gas inlet is transported, the gas transported from the gas transporting unit is passed, and the chemical sampling device is selectively coupled And a gas passing through the collecting pipe may be introduced into the chemical sample collecting mechanism coupled to the engaging portion.
Further, the chemical sample collecting mechanism may include at least one of an adsorbent, an adsorption tube, a Tedlar bag, and a detector tube.
The apparatus may further include an end cap which is selectively coupled to the coupling portion to prevent gas inflow and includes a latch for detachably attaching the seawater sampling mechanism.
In addition, the seawater sampling device can be composed of SPMD.
The sample storage part may include a gas transport part formed inside the arm and through which a part of the gas introduced from the gas inflow part is transported and a coupling part formed inside the arm and connected to the gas transport part and to which the chemical sampling device can be selectively coupled The arm may have an insertion groove into which a chemical sampling device is inserted, and the coupling portion may be provided inside the insertion groove.
