Abstract
An assembly for an aerial system includes a wing support foldably connected to a first and second side of a body of the aerial system, a protection structure coupled to the wing support and disposed over propellers coupled to the wing support, wherein at least one of the protection structure and the wing support includes at least one of a positioning hook and a positioning groove, wherein the protection structure and wing support are fixed relative to each other with the at least one of the positioning hook and the positioning groove.
Claims18
An assembly for an aerial system, comprising:
- a body having a first side and a second side;
- a first wing support including one of at least one first positioning hook and at least one first positioning groove;
- a first folding mechanism coupled between the first wing support and the first side of the body to allow the first wing support to rotate relative to the body;
- a second wing support including one of at least one second positioning hook and at least one second positioning groove;
- a second folding mechanism coupled between the second wing support and the second side of the body to allow the second wing support to rotate relative to the body, wherein each of the first and second wing supports are rotatable between an expansion state and a folding state;
- a first protection structure coupled to the first wing support and disposed over propellers coupled to the first wing support, the first protection structure including another one of the least one first positioning hook and the least one first positioning groove, wherein the first wing support and the first protection structure are fixed relative to each other by the least one first positioning hook and the at least one first positioning groove;
- a second protection structure coupled to the second wing support and disposed over propellers coupled to the second wing support, the second protection structure including another one of the least one second positioning hook and the least one second positioning groove, wherein the second wing support and the second protection structure are fixed relative to each other by the least one second positioning hook and the at least one second positioning groove;
- a first Hall effect sensor coupled to the first wing support and protection structure and the first side of the body;
- and
- a second Hall effect sensor coupled to the second wing support and protection structure and the second side of the body, each of the first and second Hall effect sensors having a first state and a second state corresponding to the expansion state and the folding state, respectively, of the first and second wing support.
