AI Technical Summary
In existing tandem parachute systems, the large wake behind the main parachute causes unstable inflation, and the excessively long connecting ropes cause fluctuations, affecting the system's stability and length.
A canopy hole is made at the top of the main parachute. One end of the connecting rope is connected to the top of the main parachute, and the other end is connected to the bottom of the deceleration chute. The area of the deceleration chute is smaller than the area of the canopy hole. The airflow flows through the canopy hole to the rear of the center of the main parachute, forming a good airflow field. The length of the connecting rope is reduced to avoid fluctuations.
This achieved stable inflation of the tandem umbrella system and reduced its overall length, thereby lowering the system weight and avoiding unstable fluctuations caused by excessively long connecting ropes.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of parachutes, and in particular to a tandem deceleration parachute system. Background Art
[0002] The parachute deceleration system has the advantages of light weight and good deceleration effect, and is widely used in the fields of aviation, aerospace, weapons and sports. The existing tandem parachute system (such as a multi-layer parachute aircraft protection system disclosed in application No. 201020113647.2) generally requires a distance of three or four times the inflated diameter of the main parachute canopy between the leading edge of the deceleration parachute and the top of the main parachute due to the influence of the large wake behind the main parachute, in order to ensure the normal inflation of the deceleration parachute. However, even with a long connecting rope, the deceleration parachute will still stay on the outer edge of the wake, and may rotate around the wake area or make irregular movements. At the same time, the long connecting rope will also produce fluctuations similar to the movement of a ship, which will then extend to the top of the main parachute and the deceleration parachute, thereby causing instability in the inflation of the tandem parachute system. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above technical deficiencies and propose a tandem deceleration parachute system to solve the technical problem in the prior art that a large wake is easily generated behind the main parachute during the operation of the tandem parachute system, resulting in unstable inflation of the tandem parachute system.
[0004] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the technical solution of the present invention provides a tandem deceleration parachute system, comprising: A main parachute, wherein the top of the main parachute is provided with a top hole; A drag parachute, wherein the area of the drag parachute after inflation is smaller than the area of the top hole of the main parachute after inflation; At least two connecting ropes, one end of each connecting rope is connected to the top of the main parachute, and the other end of each connecting rope is connected to the bottom of the deceleration parachute.
[0005] Furthermore, the main parachute includes a first canopy and a plurality of first parachute ropes, one end of each of the first parachute ropes is connected to the base of the first canopy, and the other ends of each of the first parachute ropes are connected to each other.
[0006] Furthermore, the umbrella top hole is opened at the umbrella top of the first umbrella canopy.
[0007] Furthermore, the first canopy has a ring-shaped structure after being inflated.
[0008] Furthermore, after the first canopy is inflated, the area enclosed by each of the first canopy ropes is a conical structure.
[0009] Furthermore, the deceleration parachute includes a second canopy and a plurality of second parachute ropes, one end of each of the second parachute ropes is connected to the base of the second canopy, and the other ends of each of the second parachute ropes are connected to each other.
[0010] Furthermore, the second canopy has a ring-shaped structure after being inflated.
[0011] Furthermore, after the second canopy is inflated, the area enclosed by each of the second canopy ropes is a conical structure.
[0012] Furthermore, one end of each of the connecting ropes is connected to the top of the first umbrella canopy, and the other end of each of the connecting ropes is connected to the other end of each of the second umbrella ropes.
[0013] Furthermore, the connection points between each of the connecting ropes and the first umbrella canopy are circumferentially arranged on the outside of the umbrella top hole.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention include: during the operation of the tandem parachute system, part of the airflow entering the main parachute flows to the rear of the center of the main parachute through the parachute top hole, ensuring that the airflow field behind the center of the main parachute is good, providing conditions for the normal inflation and stability of the deceleration parachute; at the same time, because the airflow field behind the center of the main parachute is good, the length of each connecting rope can be greatly reduced, avoiding the connecting rope being too long and generating fluctuations similar to the movement of a ship, ensuring the stability of the inflation of the tandem parachute system, and greatly reducing the overall length of the tandem parachute system and the weight of the tandem parachute system.
