UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE AND AUTOMATIC CHARGING DEVICE FOR UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE

摘要

An unmanned aerial vehicle and an automatic charging device for the unmanned aerial vehicle are disclosed. In one embodiment, the unmanned aerial vehicle comprises a main body and a connection part. The main body includes: a battery; and a flight power providing part driven by power provided from the battery, thereby generating flight power. The connection part includes a first charging terminal and a second charging terminal arranged in the main body, and respectively and electrically connected to different polarities of the battery. The first charging terminal and the second charging terminal are arranged so as to be spaced from each other on the outer surface of the connection part, wherein at least a portion of the connection part, hereinafter, referred to as an insertion part, is inserted into a recessed part formed on a charging platform during a process in which the main body is loaded on the charging platform. During a process in which the insertion part is inserted into the recessed part, the first charging terminal and the second charging terminal are electrically connected to a first electrode and a second electrode arranged to be spaced from each other on the charging platform. Each of the first charging terminal and the second charging terminal is electrically connected to the first electrode and the second electrode such that the battery can be charged by receiving electrical energy from the charging platform.
