Abstract: The application provides a plasma-assisted ceramic sintering device and method. The plasma-assisted ceramic sintering device includes an enclosed container receiving ceramic green body and defining a gas outlet. A plasma jet device includes a working power supply and a plasma generation chamber. The plasma generation chamber defines a gas input port, and a gas output port located in the enclosed container. The plasma generation chamber includes a working electrode having a first end and a second end. The first end electrically connects the working power supply, and the second end is adjacent to the gas output port. A gas output device connects the gas input port for inputting working gas into the plasma generation chamber. A power supply device can electrically connect and apply voltage to the ceramic green body, obtaining the ceramic by sintering. The sintering device of the application provides plasma-assisted sintering and optimizes properties of ceramic materials.

Abstract: A charging and patrol replacement system for air-land unmanned aerial vehicles and a method thereof. In the system, an unmanned aerial vehicle in flight continuously detects a remaining battery power thereof, and when the remaining battery power is lower than a threshold, the unmanned aerial vehicle generates and transmits a return-to-home signal to an unmanned ground vehicle, the unmanned ground vehicle continuously transmits a coordinate of a power supply vehicle to the unmanned aerial vehicle in flight, to guide the unmanned aerial vehicle in flight to return to the power supply vehicle for charging, and the unmanned ground vehicle then activates another unmanned aerial vehicle to synchronize patrol data with the unmanned aerial vehicle which is returned to charge, so as to replace the returned unmanned aerial vehicle to perform patrol, thereby achieving the technical effect of improving the sustainability and synergy of the air-land unmanned vehicles.
