摘要： A drone can be used to carry a payload. The drone can include at least two wings extending from a fuselage and propellers that allow the drone to fly in a horizontal orientation. The drone can takeoff and land from a vertical orientation via landing rods at the rear of the fuselage. The drone also includes an adjustable center of gravity and/or an adjustable center of lift. The center of gravity can be adjusted by changing the weight of payload located fore and aft of the center of gravity or moving at least a portion of the payload fore or aft along the fuselage. The center of lift can be adjusted by swinging the wings away from or towards the fuselage or sliding the wings fore or aft along the fuselage such that the center of lift is adjacent to the center of gravity.

摘要： Provided are an unmanned aerial vehicle and a method that enable mounting work for a package and a battery to be efficiently performed. The unmanned aerial vehicle includes a package-chamber tray, a package-chamber cover attached to the package-chamber tray from above, a battery provided on an upper surface of the package-chamber cover, and a body capable of flying, the body being attachable and detachable to and from a package chamber formed by the package-chamber tray and the package-chamber cover. First, packages are placed on the package-chamber tray. Next, the package-chamber cover is attached to the package-chamber tray. Next, the battery is placed on the package-chamber cover. At this time, the mounting position of the battery is adjusted in accordance with the center of gravity position of the entirety of the packages. Then, the body is attached to the package chamber.

摘要： The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods too of implementing a hybrid robotic system capable of reversibly transitioning producing propulsion units may be coupled to the payload platform. In a first position, the payload platform may be positioned such that the thrust-producing propulsion units generate a substantially horizontal thrust to provide horizontal movement of the robotic system. In a second position, the payload platform may be positioned such that the thrust-producing propulsion units generate a substantially vertical thrust to provide vertical movement of the robotic system.

摘要： Provided is an apparatus or a method that can stabilize flight of an unmanned aerial vehicle after package receiving or package passing. A port as a package receiving or passing apparatus includes: a landing portion on which an aerial vehicle lands; a slider for horizontally moving the landed aerial vehicle to an indoor area; an elevating/lowering portion on which a package-chamber tray taken down from the aerial vehicle in the indoor area is to be placed; a movement control portion for elevating/lowering an elevating/lowering portion; a package moving portion for moving a package between a package storage portion and the package-chamber tray placed on the elevating/lowering portion; and a center of gravity adjustment portion for adjusting the center of gravity position of the aerial vehicle after package receiving or package passing.
