Patent ID: 11485483

Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of aircrafts, and provide an undercarriage and an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) having the undercarriage. The undercarriage includes a power assembly and an undercarriage body. The power assembly includes a connecting member and a drive apparatus for driving the connecting member to reciprocate. The undercarriage body includes a plurality of hinged connecting rods, the plurality of hinged connecting rods constituting at least one parallelogram mechanism, and projections of at least two of the hinged connecting rods on a side face of the fuselage are staggered. The undercarriage body is connected to the connecting member, and when the connecting member reciprocates, the undercarriage body is driven to be folded or unfolded. In the foregoing manner, driven by the reciprocating motion of the connecting member, the undercarriage body may be retracted and folded on two sides or in an interior of the fuselage, so that the undercarriage may be retracted and folded during flight of the UAV, thereby avoiding unnecessary resistance in the air.
