  • Stackable automated drone charging station
    Patent number: 11296522
    Abstract: A drone charging station configured to charge at least one drone, the charging station including at least one charging stack comprised of a plurality of base blocks, the at least one charging stack including a first conductor block having a first polarity for electrically engaging with a corresponding first electrode of the at least one drone, and a first drone guiding portion, a second conductor block having a second polarity different from the first polarity for electrically engaging with a corresponding second electrode of the at least one drone, the second conductor block having a second drone guiding portion, and an insulator block positioned between the first conductor block and the second conductor block and having a third drone guiding portion. The first drone guiding portion, the second drone guiding portion and the third drone guiding portion arranged to provide a drone guiding path along the charging stack.
