Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of parachute devices, and in particular to a detachable parachute system. Background Art

[0002] The parachute is a deployable aerodynamic reducer that is inflated and expanded relative to the movement of air, using the principle of air resistance. A modern parachute is an aviation tool that allows people or objects to land safely from the air to the ground.

[0003] When a traditional parachute is used to land a person or object, the worker can manually separate the parachute from the person after landing safely, which makes it easier for the worker to carry out subsequent work and tasks. However, most materials or tools can only wait for people to pick them up at a fixed point after landing. With the continuous development of existing robots and intelligent equipment technologies, intelligent equipment often has its work efficiency greatly reduced due to obstruction by the parachute after landing.

[0004] In view of the fact that existing smart devices and other carriers need to perform exploration or transportation operations after landing, the existing technology usually adds a release module from the parachute to the smart device, and realizes the disintegration between the smart device and the parachute through remote control technology. However, in water environments or areas with severe signal interference, this method often cannot achieve effective release of the carrier and the parachute, and also requires manual control, which is cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive.

[0049] Example:

[0050] The detachable parachute system in the preferred embodiment of the present invention is as follows: Figures 1 to 7 As shown, it includes a parachute body 1 for slowing down the landing of a carrier, and a parachute cabin base 2 is arranged at the bottom of the parachute body 1; a carrier 3 for carrying or placing the carrier, and a connecting member 4 for connecting the parachute cabin base 2 with the carrier 3, and the connecting member 4 is used for connecting the parachute cabin base 2 and the carrier 3, and can realize the separation between the parachute cabin base 2 and the carrier 3, and an impact sensing device 5 is also arranged at the bottom of the carrier 3, which is used to sense the external impact on the carrier 3 and transmit the impact signal to the connecting member 4, and a separating member 6 is also arranged on the connecting member 4 corresponding to the impact sensing device 5, and the separating member 6 is electrically connected to the impact sensing device 5, and is used to receive the impact signal and realize the separation between the connecting member 4 and the carrier 3 or the parachute cabin base 2.

[0051] The present invention provides a connecting member 4 structure between the parachute body 1 and the carrier 3, and provides an impact sensing device 5 linked to the connecting member 4 on the carrier 3, so that when the carrier 3 is subjected to impact force, the impact signal is fed back to the connecting member 4, and the carrier 3 or the parachute cabin base 2 is separated by the connecting member 4. The overall detachable parachute system has a simple structure, and the separation method between the parachute body 1 and the carrier 3 is simple and clear. It can respond and complete the separation in the first time, without remote control, and can adapt to various complex environments, avoiding the inconvenience of remote control in bad weather or signal-free environment.

[0052] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in the present application, the umbrella cabin base 2 is used not only for reliable connection between the umbrella body 1 and the carrier 3 to ensure the deceleration of the carrier 3 at high altitude, but also for placing the umbrella body 1. A space for accommodating the folded umbrella body 1 is reserved on the upper part of the umbrella cabin base 2 to facilitate the carrying and recovery of the umbrella body 1. A traction line is also provided on the top of the umbrella body 1 for opening the umbrella body 1. The carrier in this application mainly refers to an intelligent machine carrier with certain storage functions, exploration functions, and maintenance functions, which can carry out corresponding material transportation, site exploration or site maintenance when entering the water or landing on the ground. In actual situations, the carrier can also realize multiple functions such as material transportation, exploration or maintenance at the same time. Of course, the functions that can be completed by other robot carriers or fixed-point delivery objects such as torpedoes can all be completed by the carrier in this application.

[0053] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 , Figure 6As shown, the connecting member 4 is mainly used for connecting with the parachute base 2, and includes a connecting seat 401 and an impact plate 402, wherein the connecting seat 401 is connected to the bearing member 3, and the impact plate 402 is connected to the parachute base 2, and the impact plate 402 and the connecting seat 401 are connected in a detachable manner; an impact groove 403 is also provided on the connecting seat 401, and the separating member 6 is arranged in the impact groove 403, and the separating member 6 can move along the opening direction of the impact groove 403 after receiving the impact signal and impact on the impact plate 402, so as to realize the separation of the impact plate 402 and the connecting seat 401. The impact plate 402 and the connecting seat 401 are connected in a detachable manner, and when the separating member 6 in the impact groove 403 on the connecting seat 401 impacts the impact plate 402, the impact plate 402 and the connecting seat 401 are separated from each other, thereby realizing the separation of the parachute base 2 and the bearing member 3.

[0054] Preferably, there is no unique connection method between the impact plate 402 and the connecting seat 401. A screw structure, a mortise and tenon structure, a threaded matching structure, etc. can be used between the impact plate 402 and the connecting seat 401. The detachable structure is only used to ensure the reliable connection between the impact plate 402 and the connecting seat 401 during the landing process, and the reliable separation under the impact of the separation member 6, that is, any structure with a certain firmness but not completely fixed is acceptable.

[0055] Further, as an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the connecting member 4 includes a connecting seat 401 connected to the parachute base 2, and an impact groove 403 is provided on the connecting seat 401. The separating member 6 is arranged in the impact groove 403, and one end of the separating member 6 extends out of the notch of the impact groove 403 and is detachably connected to the supporting member 3, and can move in a direction away from the supporting member 3 after receiving an impact signal, so as to separate the separating member 6 from the supporting member 3. Here, the separating member 6 and the supporting member 3 are detachably connected, and when the separating member 6 moves in the impact groove 403 in a direction away from the supporting member 3, the end of the supporting member 3 abuts against the notch of the impact groove 403, and the separating member 6 continues to move, and the separating member 6 and the supporting member 3 are separated, so as to separate the supporting member 3 from the parachute base 2.

[0056] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the separation member 6 specifically includes an impact assembly arranged along the direction in which the impact groove 403 is opened, and a power assembly 603 is arranged circumferentially on the impact assembly, and the power assembly 603 is electrically connected to the impact sensing device 5, and is used to receive the impact signal of the impact sensing device 5 and drive the impact assembly to move in a direction away from the bearing member 3. Preferably, the impact assembly includes an impact column 601 and an impact truncated table 602 arranged radially along the impact column 601, and the impact truncated table 602 is used to bear the impact force of the power assembly 603 to drive the impact column 601 to move. When the outside of the carrier 3 is impacted, the impact sensing device 5 sends an impact signal to the power component 603, the power component 603 starts and transmits power axially along the impact groove 403, the power component 603 abuts on the impact cone 602 and drives the impact component to move, the impact column 601 impacts the impact plate 402 to separate the impact plate 402 from the connecting seat 401, or the impact column 601 moves in a direction away from the carrier 3, the impact column 601 extends out of the impact groove 403 and is retracted into the impact groove 403, the impact column 601 is separated from the carrier 3, and the carrier 3 is separated from the separation member 6. Figure 7 shown.

[0057] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the power assembly 603 in the present application can be an electrically controlled telescopic structure, such as an electrically controlled motor or a cylinder, or an initiation structure such as electrically controlled gunpowder, which can be activated at the moment when the carrier 3 is impacted, and has a large driving force, and can instantly separate from the carrier 3 or the parachute cabin base 2, ensuring stable operation of the carrier after landing. The carrier 3 in the present application can be integrally arranged with the carrier, that is, the carrier 3 itself is part of the carrier, or the carrier 3 can be separately arranged with the carrier, that is, the carrier is placed on the carrier 3, which can be changed according to the actual working environment requirements.

[0058] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the impact sensing device 5 includes a sensor connected to the outer surface of the carrier 3 and a power controller arranged in the carrier 3. The power controller is electrically connected to the power assembly 603, and is used to receive the impact sensing of the sensor and control the start and stop of the power assembly 603. In order to ensure the separation of the connecting member 4 from the carrier 3 or the umbrella cabin base 2 after the carrier 3 is impacted, the sensor structure of the impact sensing device 5 needs to be connected to the outer surface of the carrier 3, and the sensor sensing range is preferably set at the bottom of the carrier 3 or around its bottom, to ensure that the impact signal can be immediately transmitted to the power controller when the bottom or the surrounding edges of the carrier 3 fall to the ground or into the water, and then the power assembly 603 is driven to move by the power controller to achieve the separation of the connecting member 4 from the carrier 3 or the umbrella cabin base 2.

[0059] Further, as an optional embodiment of the present invention, the carrier 3 in the present application is openable and closable, the carrier is accommodated inside the carrier 3, and a connecting member 4 is provided at the opening and closing mouth of the carrier 3; a separating member 6 is also provided on the connecting member 4 corresponding to the impact sensing device 5, and the structure of the separating member 6 is the same as that in the above-mentioned embodiment, the difference being that the separating member 6 is used for the detachable connection on both sides of the opening of the carrier 3, when the carrier 3 falls to the ground or falls into water, the impact sensing device 5 transmits the impact signal to the connecting member 4, the separating member 6 on the connecting member 4 is activated and the carrier 3 is unfolded to both sides from the opening, and the carrier located inside the carrier 3 can be smoothly released from the opening.

[0060] The detachable parachute system in the present application realizes the separation of the connecting member 4 from the parachute cabin base 2 or the carrier 3 by setting a connecting member 4 between the parachute cabin base 2 and the carrier 3, and controlling the operation of the connecting member 4 through the impact received by the carrier 3, thereby ensuring that the connecting member 4 can be started immediately after the carrier 3 falls to the ground or into the water, ensuring that the carrier on the carrier 3 can be quickly separated from the parachute body 1 part, thereby ensuring the subsequent working rate of the carrier.

[0061] It will be easily understood by those skilled in the art that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
