FLYING ROBOT DEVICE

摘要

Provided is a flying robot device that does not cause limits to be imposed on flight time and payload as a result of the capacity of a built-in battery, that enables stable continuous flight of a flying robot, and that makes it possible to perform work such as the dispersing of agricultural chemicals from the sky and aerial photography. The flying robot device 1 is provided with a flying robot 10, a ground-side power supply device 50 that supplies power to the flying robot 10 via a flexible power transmission cable, and a cable winding device that takes in a surplus part of the cable 30 at the ground side. The flying robot 10 controls the output of a motor 14 in accordance with the load of the cable 30 that acts upon the flying robot 10, converts high voltage VH supplied from the ground-side power supply device 50 via the cable 30 into low voltage VL, and supplies the result to the motor 14. The ground-side power supply device 50 transmits the high voltage VH to the flying robot 10 via the cable 30 and controls the high voltage VH and the feeding and the take-up of the cable 30 by the cable winding device 40 in accordance with the distance between the flying robot 10 and the ground-side power supply device 50.
