Abstract
This invention discloses an airdrop landing buffer device, comprising an upper tray for securing the airdropped item, a guide rod vertically connected below the upper tray, and a self-balancing mechanism connected below the guide rod and capable of automatically adjusting to keep the upper tray horizontal. The self-balancing mechanism includes a balancing tray fixedly connected to the guide rod, and a plurality of vertically arranged energy-absorbing circular tubes are connected between the balancing tray and the upper tray. This application, by incorporating the energy-absorbing circular tubes and the self-balancing adjustment mechanism, ensures that the upper tray remains horizontal when the airdropped item lands, thereby guaranteeing that the energy-absorbing circular tubes can fully utilize their energy-absorbing and buffering characteristics, and ensuring that the buffer device effectively protects the airdropped item.
