Wing structure having a solar battery and manufacturing method thereof

2011 
PURPOSE: A wing structure with solar cells and a manufacturing method thereof are provided to increase the sunlight utilization efficiency of an unmanned aerial vehicle by attaching the solar cells to the inside of a wing. CONSTITUTION: A wing structure comprises spars(120), lips(110), inner panels, solar cells(140), and a wing skin(150). The spars are longitudinally installed inside a wing. The lips are installed inside the wing across to the spars. Holes are bored in the lips to reduce weight. The inner panels are attached to portions partitioned by the spars and lips. The solar cells are attached to the inner panels. The wing skin is attached above the solar cells and is made of a transparent material so that sunlight can be penetrated.
