[0025] The following combines the attached Figure 1 ~The attached Figure 6 Embodiments further describe the present invention in detail.
[0026] As Figure 1 shown, at the bottom of two mutually perpendicular light curtain planes, more than 1 rotary light curtain forming device ① is placed. The number of light curtain forming devices is from 1 to 999. The rotary light curtain forming device includes, but is not limited to, the fixed light curtain forming device formed by using the principle of the present invention, and a power supply is added.
[0027] As Figure 2 shown, on the light curtain forming device, a fog-penetrating lamp ① is added. The fog-penetrating lamp ① uses a fog-penetrating strong light lamp that can be purchased on the market, including, but not limited to, adding an automatic control program to it. The fog-penetrating lamp ① is installed in a rotating or permanently fixed manner.
[0028] As Figure 2As shown, on the light curtain forming device, there is a fixed bracket ② formed by using the principle of the present invention, which includes but is not limited to a grounding device, can be automatically leveled and fixed in the vertical direction.
[0029] As Figure 2 shown, on the light curtain forming device, including but not limited to, an electromagnetic strengthening device ③ is installed at the bottom of the fixed bracket ②, and the electromagnetic strengthening device ③ is combined with the electromagnetic plate device preset on the ground to form a stable ground platform.
[0030] As Figure 3 shown, for the fixing device, two wrench blocks ③ that can move left and right are connected by a spring member ①, and its locking member ② is connected to the ship platform or other platforms that need to monitor attitude data in real time.
[0031] As Figure 4 shown, attitude sensors and ranging sensors ① are arranged at any position of the fixing device, so that the attitude data and distance data of the platform where the fixing device is located are accurately transmitted to the sensors, and the number of sensors is from 1 to N.
[0032] As Figure 4 shown, sensor data transmitters ② are arranged at any position of the fixing device, so that the sensing data of the platform where the fixing device is located are accurately transmitted to the receiving device or platform of the rotary-wing aircraft, and the number of transmitters is from 1 to N.
[0033] As Figure 5 shown, on the platform of the aircraft with rotors, a Beidou communication terminal is used to receive short-distance attitude data. The receiving terminal includes but is not limited to receiving sensor data, distance, and altitude data, and the receiving method is wireless data reception, and the number of receivers is from 1 to N.
[0034] As Figure 6 shown, in actual application, the light curtain ③ formed by the light curtain forming device and the aircraft positioning auxiliary mark ② need to accurately locate the landing position ①, and together form a landing assistance system. After the positioning aperture formed by the aircraft positioning auxiliary mark ② is tangent to the light curtain ③ or the photoelectric positioning distance measurement reaches a certain distance, the landing position ① can be accurately judged.
[0035] After the attitude data of the landing platform is matched with the attitude data of the aircraft, accurate positioning can be achieved.
