    Abstract: A rotating apparatus includes a rotating assembly and a position-limiting assembly. The rotating assembly includes a driving unit and at least one rotating component. The driving unit is adapted to drive the rotating component to rotate with a first axis. The position-limiting assembly includes a position-limiting component, at least one first column, and a buckling component. The position-limiting assembly is disposed on the rotating assembly and is adapted to limit a position of the rotating component. The first column is connected to the position-limiting component. The position-limiting component is located between the rotating component and the buckling component and is able to move along the first axis. The buckling component is movably disposed on the position-limiting component and has at least one buckling portion. The buckling portion is adapted to be buckled to the first column or move away from the first column.

    Abstract: A charge device for a drone includes a base and a covering mechanism. The base has a charge portion. The covering mechanism includes two covers, two first position-limiting components and two second position-limiting components. The two covers are movably disposed on the base. The covers are adapted to move toward each other to become a closed state and cover the charge portion, and the covers are adapted to move away from each other to become an expanded state and expose the charge portion. The first position-limiting components are connected to the covers respectively. Each of the second position-limiting components is connected between the covers. When the covers are in the closed state, the first position-limiting components and the second position-limiting components are located above the charge portion. When the covers are in the expanded state, the first position-limiting components and the second position-limiting components are away from the charge portion.
