Application: Aerial vehicle with deployable components (Patent ID: US20240208637A1)

The patent filed by Anduril Industries Inc. describes an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with wings that can be stowed against the fuselage in a compact arrangement and then deployed into a second arrangement using a gearbox. The method involves detecting preconditions such as velocity, acceleration, and leveling, activating the gearbox connected to the wings, transitioning the wings to a deployed configuration, and achieving a stable flight condition. Additionally, the method includes adjusting the wing sweep angle, expanding the wing length, deploying additional components like a telescoping boom and stabilizer, detecting a launch, maintaining roll control, adjusting the wingspan, completing and terminating a mission, and operating the UAV with an on-board flight controller.

The innovative method outlined in the patent allows for efficient deployment of UAV wings from a compact arrangement to a deployed configuration, ensuring stable flight conditions. By detecting preconditions and activating a gearbox, the wings can be transitioned smoothly, with adjustments made to the wing sweep angle and wingspan as needed. The method also includes deploying additional components like a telescoping boom and stabilizer, as well as maintaining roll control throughout the deployment process. Overall, the patent provides a comprehensive system for deploying and operating UAVs effectively in various mission scenarios.
