Abstract

A small unmanned air vehicle repulsing apparatus includes a capturing body adapted to capture a drone, a target to be captured; and a capturing body launching apparatus adapted to launch the capturing body at the drone, in which the capturing body launching apparatus can quickly capture the drone by launching the capturing body even if the suspicious drone flies into an area to be protected so as to protect the interest and safety of law-abiding people.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An unmanned air vehicle repulsing apparatus for repulsing an unmanned air vehicle, comprising:
a single capturing body adapted to capture the unmanned air vehicle; the capturing body having a capturing bullet, a gas generator and a detonator,
a net adapted to entangle the unmanned air vehicle,
a parachute adapted to reduce a failing speed of the unmanned air vehicle, and
a single wire coupled at one end to the capturing body; and
a capturing body launching apparatus adapted to launch the capturing body at the unmanned air vehicle and retrieve the unmanned air vehicle; the capturing body launching apparatus have an electric reel on the capturing body launch apparatus, another end of the wire being secured to the electric reel;
a radar device adapted to detect a distance to and a direction of the unmanned air vehicle,
wherein the radar device is adapted to determine whether or not the unmanned air vehicle is within a firing range, and
when the unmanned air vehicle is within the firing range, the capturing body launching apparatus launches the capturing body at the unmanned air vehicle.
