Title: Maxwell Lee and Modular Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Innovations.

Introduction

Maxwell Lee is an inventor based in Guangdong, China, whose patent work includes designs for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). His disclosed inventions address adaptable aircraft configurations and components for mounting a UAV’s power assembly.

Latest Patents

Lee’s listed patent portfolio includes 2 patents, with the following inventions described.

- **Convertible unmanned aerial vehicle.** This invention describes an airframe that can accept either a fixed-wing assembly or a rotor assembly. Connecting the fixed-wing assembly creates a vertical take-off and landing fixed-wing UAV, while connecting the rotor assembly creates a multi-rotor UAV. The replaceable assemblies allow the aircraft to switch between these configurations.

- **Unmanned aerial vehicle.** This invention describes an airframe with mounting portions that include connecting rods extending along the pitch axis. Its power assembly has a first assembling body and eccentric wheels that rotate between two positions around an axis perpendicular to the pitch axis. The design focuses on the relationship between the airframe’s mounting structure and the adjustable power assembly.

Career Highlights

Lee’s listed inventions focus on UAV architecture, including modular aircraft configurations and mechanical arrangements for mounting power components. The convertible UAV design is notable for allowing one airframe to support either fixed-wing or multi-rotor operation through replaceable assemblies.
