With the continuous development of drone technology, it is favored by the logistics field because of its advantages of environmental protection, flexibility, reducing the inherent cost and time cost of distribution, and reducing interpersonal contact. However, it is also limited by endurance and load capacity. In order to overcome this limitation and give better play to the advantages of drone distribution, the current mainstream drone distribution mode is the base station supply mode along the route and the long-distance driving mode of the vehicle equipped with drone, but both modes have the disadvantages of high cost or small service radius. In this regard, the model of Vehicle-carrying delivery drone base station is proposed, and its operation process is confirmed through mechanical design and system design. Taking its application in emergency logistics and rural terminal logistics as an example, it is found that it not only improves the distribution efficiency and service radius on the basis of ensuring the cost, but also realizes automation and intelligence, and improves the space utilization.
