드론 배터리 팩 자동 교체 장치는, 배터리 팩; 일단에 회전이 가능한 고정장치가 형성되어 있고, 드론에 내장된 배터리 팩을 고정장치에 고정시켜 드론에 내장된 배터리 팩을 드론으로부터 제거하고, 드론으로 충전이 완료된 배터리 팩을 삽입시키는 배터리 팩 이동기; 배터리 팩을 다수 개 포함하며 배터리 팩을 충전하고, 충전이 완료된 배터리 팩을 배터리 팩 이동기의 이동 경로에 위치시키고, 일단이 오픈 되어 있는 배터리 팩 충전기; 및 적외선 센서를 이용하여 드론의 착륙을 인지하고, 드론을 지정된 배터리 팩 교체 위치로 이동시키는 드론 착륙 센터;를 포함할 수 있다. 이에 따라, 드론의 GPS 성능에 크게 의존하지 않고, 드론이 착륙장 내에 착륙하기만 하면 드론의 위치를 충전소까지 옮겨주어 드론이 배터리를 바꾸는데 제일 좋은 위치로 보정해주므로 어떤 드론이든지 간에 본 발명을 사용할 수 있는 높은 호환성을 가질 수 있다.

    According to the present invention, a device for automatic replacement of a drone battery pack can comprise: a battery pack; a battery pack mover wherein on one end is formed with a rotatable fixing apparatus, the battery pack built in a drone is fixed on the fixing apparatus, the battery pack built in the drone is removed from the drone, and the battery pack which has been completely charged is inserted into the drone; a battery pack charger which includes a large number of battery packs, charges the battery pack, locates the battery pack which has been completely charged on a moving path of the battery pack mover, and has one end opened; and a drone landing center which uses an infrared ray sensor, recognizes the landing of the drone, and moves the drone to a designated battery pack replacement position. Accordingly, the present invention is able to move the position of the drone to a charging station only if the drone lands on a landing site without greatly depending on the GPS performance of the drone, calibrate the position of the drone to the best position for the drone to change the battery, and have a high compatibility to use the present invention no matter which sort of drone flies.
