Wearable inflatable emergency life-saving umbrella

PendingCN122232870AParachutes
This invention discloses a wearable inflatable emergency rescue parachute, belonging to the technical field of emergency rescue equipment for low-altitude manned aircraft. The invention includes a one-piece wearable support vest, a shoulder-mounted accordion-style folding storage bag, an inflatable rescue parachute, an arc-shaped flat high-pressure gas cylinder, high-pressure inflation tubing, a spring-loaded retraction box, an aramid webbing traction rope, an intelligent triggering system, and a manual trigger pull ring. The one-piece wearable support vest is a front-opening integrated structure, with an integrated shoulder-mounted accordion-style folding storage bag on the back for storing the folded inflatable rescue parachute. Arc-shaped flat high-pressure gas cylinders are symmetrically arranged on the outer sides of the left and right thighs, connected to the parachute's inflation frame via high-pressure inflation tubing. The traction rope assembly uses a spring-loaded retraction box and an aramid webbing traction rope structure to achieve opening buffering and automatic retraction. The triggering system integrates an intelligent triggering module and a manual trigger pull ring, forming dual redundant control. This invention can be worn close to the body without affecting the operation of the aircraft. It can achieve rapid inflation and molding at low altitudes without relying on oncoming airflow. It is designed to provide end-point emergency life-saving protection for low-altitude manned aircraft in scenarios of power failure and loss of control in the air. It can also be adapted to high-altitude operations and emergency escape scenarios in high-rise buildings.

A parachute cover and parachute landing device

This utility model discloses a parachute cover and a parachute landing device. The parachute cover includes: a parachute pouch with a cavity for storing the parachute canopy; and a parachute fabric connected to the outside of the pouch. An inflation cavity is formed between the fabric and the pouch, allowing external airflow to enter. When airflow enters the inflation cavity, at least a portion of its kinetic energy is converted into upward lift force acting on the fabric, thus generating upward buoyancy for the parachute cover. In this utility model, the parachute cover, through the inflation cavity formed between the fabric and the pouch, allows external airflow to enter when the cover is deployed. The airflow flows within the inflation cavity and converts part of its kinetic energy into upward lift force acting on the fabric. This lift force causes the entire parachute cover to experience upward buoyancy, altering the trajectory and position of the parachute canopy inside, enabling it to move upward after release and smoothly pass over the vertical stabilizer or tail propeller area, avoiding collision or entanglement.

Parachute attachment device for a fixed-wing drone

ActiveCN224349132UParachutes
This utility model discloses a parachute fixing device for a fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The UAV includes a fuselage with a cabin on its upper part. The parachute fixing device includes a square shell housed within the cabin and limiting devices arranged around the perimeter of the shell. The limiting devices include a U-shaped slide rail, a T-shaped perforated lug, and a bearing. The T-shaped perforated lug is slidably mounted on the U-shaped slide rail via the bearing. The U-shaped slide rail is vertically positioned within the shell. This utility model ensures that the parachute is completely retracted within the shell during normal flight, preventing aerodynamic interference. In emergency deployment, the tension of the parachute lines causes the T-shaped perforated lug to move rapidly upward along the slide rail, evenly transferring the impact load to the fuselage. This ensures the reliability of the parachute's instantaneous deployment and achieves the effect of evenly transmitting the parachute's impact force axially to the main load-bearing structure of the fuselage. This effectively prevents the fixing device from loosening or shifting due to turbulence, airflow, or other factors during flight, ensuring the stability of the parachute upon deployment.
