Abstract

In order to better understand the flight performance and kinematics performance of flapping wing aircraft designed and developed based on the principle of bionics, a space crank rocker mechanism was tried to carry out the virtual prototype design of the bionic aircraft in space motion, and on this basis, its movement characteristics were analyzed. Analyzing the flight mechanisms and scale laws of common flying organisms yields various physical estimation parameters that affect flight characteristics. Flight patterns and motion patterns are analyzed based on the design principles of seabirds, and structural designs and mathematical models are established. Secondly, carry out the design of its flapping and transmission structures, and based on this, carry out the overall structural design and establish a three-dimensional model. Here, the kinematics analysis of its flapping amplitude and angular velocity value is carried out by combining its mechanism motion diagram, and the kinematics simulation results are compared with the theoretical results, which proves the correctness of the theoretical analysis and the feasibility of the design structure.
