  • Publication number: 20230219701
    Abstract: A mobile platform (100) for the aerial delivery of a load by drones comprising a landing plane (110) arranged to define a vertical axis y, at least one position sensor adapted measure a spatial orientation O of the vertical axis y with respect to a predetermined reference system S, a local control unit connected to said or each position sensor, a electric accumulator arranged to provide electric energy to said or each position sensor and to the local control unit. Furthermore, the local control unit is arranged to acquire the spatial orientation O of the vertical axis y, compare the spatial orientation O of the vertical axis y with a predetermined spatial orientation O?, generate a status of correct positioning when between the spatial orientation O and the predetermined spatial orientation O? there is an angular deviation a lower than a predetermined value ?max.

  • Patent number: 11257385
    Abstract: A system for carrying a load at a controlled temperature includes a drone structure having a motor that handles the drone structure, an energy unit that delivers electric energy, and a control unit. The drone structure also includes a thermal container having an insulating casing with at least one layer of heat-insulating material, an inner temperature sensor that measures a value of temperature Tint internal to the insulating casing, an outer temperature sensor configured to measure a value of temperature Text external to the insulating casing, and a thermal unit arranged to adjust or keep constant the value of temperature Tint. The control unit is adapted to carry out an acquisition of a flight mission comprising a landing position of the drone structure, a time limit tmax to reach the landing position and a condition on the values of the temperature Tint to keep during the flight mission.
