摘要: An example charging station for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), the charging station generally including a nest and a charging device. The nest includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion defines an upper opening sized and shaped to receive a landing apparatus of the UAV, and a diameter of the nest reduces from a first diameter at the upper opening to a second diameter at the lower portion. The charging device is mounted in the nest, and includes a first contact pad and a second contact pad. The charging device is configured to apply a voltage differential across the first contact pad and the second contact pad such that the charging station is operable to charge a power supply of the UAV via the landing apparatus.

摘要: An electric vehicle control device includes a first inverter controlling a first group defined by induction motors, and a second inverter controlling a second group defined by induction motors. The first inverter and the induction motors of the first group are connected to each other by a first conductor. The second inverter and the induction motors of the second group are connected by a second conductor. A first length is equal to or less than three times the average value of a second length and a third length. The first length is an inter-center distance between the first conductor and the second conductor, the second length is the maximum length of a conductor portion of the first conductor in the cross section of the first conductor, and the third length is the maximum length of a conductor portion of the second conductor in the cross section of the second conductor.

摘要: An unmanned aerial vehicle according to certain embodiments generally includes a chassis, a power supply mounted to the chassis, a control system operable to receive power from the power supply, at least one rotor operable to generate lift under control of the control system, and a motor operable to lower a free end of a line. The free end of the line is operable to engage a parcel to be delivered by the unmanned aerial vehicle. The control system is configured to operate the motor to cause the free end of the line to accelerate toward a delivery surface as the free end of the line passes through a first portion of a distance between the unmanned aerial vehicle and the delivery surface, and to decelerate as the free end of the line passes through a lower portion of the distance.

摘要: A non-contact power feeding device includes multiple power feeding elements that are disposed spatially separated from one another in a movement direction, an AC power supply that supplies AC power to the power feeding elements, multiple power receiving elements that are provided in a moving body and that receive AC power in a non-contact manner, and a power receiving circuit that converts the AC power received by the power receiving elements and that outputs to an electrical load. When a length of the power feeding elements in the movement direction is LT, a separation distance between the power feeding elements is DT, a length of the power receiving elements in the movement direction is LR, and a separation distance between the power receiving elements is DR, the relationship DT≤DR and the relationship (2×LR+DR)≤LT are satisfied.

摘要: A quick charging system for electrically driven vehicles and method for forming an electrically conductive connection between a vehicle and a stationary charging station having a contact device, a charging contact device, and a positioning device. The charging contact device can be electrically contacted in a contact position together with the contact device. The contact device can be positioned in the vertical and horizontal direction relative to the charging contact device and moved to the contact position. The contact device has a contact element carrier with contact elements that can each be electrically contacted together with charge contact elements of the charge contact device, forming contact pairs, in the contact position. A guide device is provided, such that, when the contact device and the charge contact device are brought together, a physical contacting of the contact elements together with the charge contact device is inhibited before reaching the contact position.

摘要: An electricity collector device (100) for connecting a vehicle (200) to electrical supply rails (308, 309) in a conduit (304) is disclosed. The device (100) comprises a collector system (400), a wheeled enclosure (101), a vehicle connection (150) and a power cable (104). The collector system (400) comprises a retractable collector arm (401, 402) adapted to be inserted into a conduit (304) containing an electrical supply rail (309, 309), and to make electrical contact with the supply rail (308, 309). The wheeled enclosure (101) houses the collector system (400), and comprises flanged wheels (102, 103) adapted to be engageable with the conduit (304). The vehicle connection (150) is for attaching the device to a vehicle (200), allowing the enclosure (101) to move with least two degrees of freedom with respect to the vehicle (200). The power cable (104) is for connecting the collector system (400) to a vehicle (200).

摘要: Provided are an external power supply apparatus and a vehicle power supply method, whereby a power reception circuit of an electric vehicle can be projected or a configuration of the electric vehicle can be simplified. An external power supply apparatus is provided with: a power supply unit, which is provided along a traveling path, and which supplies power to a power reception unit of an electric vehicle while the vehicle is traveling; and a voltage applying unit that applies a voltage to the power supply unit. The power supply unit includes a plurality of divided power supply units that are divided along the traveling path. The voltage applying unit applies the voltage such that the voltage to be applied to the divided power supply units becomes higher in the traveling direction of the electric vehicle.
