Figure 1 If the helicopter is tilted or impacted due to the telescopic movement of the landing gear, the use of the helicopter on the ship will be dangerous, and a telescopic limiter is usually installed on the landing gear on the ship to limit the telescopic movement of the landing gear, so that the length of the buffer of the landing gear of the helicopter is kept unchanged or changes in a small range.

[0003] At present, the limiting test of the helicopter on the ship under high sea conditions is based on a real shipborne platform, and there is no mature test device and test method for verifying the function and performance index of the limiting ability of the landing gear of the shipborne helicopter in a laboratory environment on land.
