About Cube High Altitude Cleaning UAV 玻璃清洁无人机

Cube是一款专为高层建筑玻璃清洁而设计的无人飞行器。该全向飞行器配备八个螺旋桨,可在空中自由旋转。机载传感器负责确定位置,机载计算系统则规划飞行路径。方形机架最多可搭载五个独立的清洁模块,每个模块均配有水箱和贴面喷嘴。四角的小滚珠帮助各模块在玻璃表面移动。太阳能板可在作业过程中为模块充电。该设计降低了高空人工清洁的成本与风险。

Unique Properties
Use Glass cleaner instead of High altitude practitioners to complete high risk operations. An omnidirectional helicopter with 8 propellers can rotate 360 degrees freely in the air. Each drone can pick up multiple modules back and forth, the part where the modules are removed can be charged by solar energy.
Dimensions & Packaging
Body length 540mm width 540mm height 540mm.
Tags
Glass cleaning, automation, modularization, solar electromagnetic panel.
Production Technology
Onboard sensors, onboard calculations, 8 axis lengthy, Solar charging.
Design Challenge
The form and integration of the function of the cabo module and the flight module.
Research
The design uses airborne sensors to determine location and airborne calculations to determine actions. An omnidirectional helicopter with 8 propellers can rotate 360 degrees in the air. The whole is a square frame, and there are six glass wiping modules that can be split into independent units at will. There are water tanks inside, the surface nozzles spray water. The four small balls on the four corners are convenient for moving when the glass is wiped.
Inspiration
Using modern drone high altitude cleaning instead of traditional manual cleaning of high altitude glass can greatly reduce the cost of high altitude cleaning and reduce the risk of personnel falling from high altitude. Using the modular design concept, the drone can carry up to 5 cleaning modules to work together at a time.
Project Duration
The project was launched in Shenyang, Liaoning Province in June 2020, and ended in Shenyang, Liaoning Province in December 2020.
Operation Flow
The Glass cleaner uses the airborne calculation standard path, sends the cleaning module to the glass of the high altitude building, starts the cleaning operation after freely rotating and positioning the next working platform. The back of the module provides continuous power to the solar panel. After completing the operation, the flight module retrieves the cleaning module.
