Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of emergency rescue technology, and in particular to a high-altitude parachute rescue equipment package and its delivery method. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, many countries around the world attach great importance to the research and development of specialized life-saving equipment in the field of emergency rescue. Among them, life-saving equipment packages, used to carry survival supplies, safety protection, and communication equipment, are an extremely important type of life-saving equipment.

[0003] Currently, there are two main deployment methods for rescue equipment packages: First, the package is directly loaded onto an aircraft and dropped upon reaching the destination. This method involves a low deployment altitude, which cannot meet the needs of some scenarios. Second, the package is attached to a parachute and dropped from a high altitude. This method results in a greater distance from the destination upon landing, poorer deployment accuracy, and more severe damage to the package upon impact. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a rescue equipment package that can be deployed from a high altitude with high accuracy and minimal impact damage. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To overcome the technical shortcomings of existing rescue equipment packages that cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of high-altitude delivery, high delivery accuracy, and low landing damage, this invention provides a high-altitude delivery parachute rescue equipment package and its delivery method.

[0005] The high-altitude drop parachute rescue equipment package provided by this invention includes: The inner cylinder includes an upper end plate and a lower end plate that are parallel to each other, and a connecting wall connecting the upper end plate and the lower end plate, the upper end plate, the lower end plate and the connecting wall forming a receiving area for accommodating rescue items; The coating covers the outside of the inner tube and has an opening for attaching and detaching the inner tube, which is opened and closed by a zipper; A rib-shaped tube, which is fitted onto the outside of the coating; A support mesh cover is provided, which wraps around the outside of the V-shaped tube and the outside of the lower end plate to form a barrel-shaped structure. The open end edge of the barrel-shaped structure is provided with a connecting hanger.

[0006] Optionally, the connecting wall includes two connecting strips, which are vertically arranged and fixed between the edges of the upper and lower end plates. The two connecting strips are connected by a skin, and the axial ends of the skin extend to the upper and lower end plates respectively. The circumferential angle of the skin is less than or equal to 180°. The part between the upper and lower end plates without the skin is provided with a pressure bar, which is vertically arranged and detachably fixed between the edges of the upper and lower end plates. The inner sidewall of the connecting strip is provided with multiple sets of receiving grooves distributed vertically at intervals. The receiving grooves of the two connecting strips are correspondingly arranged, and at least one set of receiving grooves is engaged with a partition.

[0007] Optionally, the zipper is L-shaped and covers both end faces and side walls of the inner cylinder.

[0008] Optionally, the outer side of the upper end plate and the outer side of the lower end plate are provided with slots that are adapted to the zipper.

[0009] Optionally, the bottom of the coating is provided with a first cushioning base.

[0010] Optionally, the top of the coating is provided with a handle.

[0011] Optionally, the bottom of the barrel-shaped structure is provided with a second buffer base.

[0012] Optionally, the support mesh includes multiple coaxial and axially spaced connecting rings, which are connected and fixed by vertical bars. The top end of the vertical bar extends above the uppermost connecting ring and is connected to the connecting hanger, while the bottom end of the vertical bar extends below the lowermost connecting ring and is connected to the second buffer base.

[0013] The method for deploying a high-altitude parachute rescue equipment package provided by the present invention includes the following steps: S1. Connect the parachute rescue kit to the deceleration parachute and insert it into the rescue capsule from the tail end of the capsule; S2. Horizontally mount the life-saving capsule onto the drone and deliver it to the target area in the airspace above the target area; S3. The life-saving capsule detaches from the drone; S4. The life-saving capsule is free-falling to the designated height; S5. The tail end of the life capsule separates, and the deceleration parachute pulls the parachute rescue equipment pack outside the capsule and descends together to the target area.

[0014] Optionally, the parachute rescue equipment pack has two parts, namely a main pack and a landing pack. The bottom edge of the barrel-shaped structure of the landing pack and the lower end of the deceleration parachute are also provided with connecting hangers. The connecting hanger of the upper landing pack is connected to the connecting hanger of the deceleration parachute by a spring buckle, and the connecting hanger of the lower landing pack is connected to the connecting hanger of the main pack by a spring buckle.

[0015] The technical solution provided by this invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art: The high-altitude drop parachute rescue equipment package provided by this invention includes an inner tube, a cover, a webbing tube, and a support net, which are sequentially arranged from the inside out. The unique multi-layered structure of this equipment package has a large load-bearing capacity and a large impact resistance, which can reduce the loss of the equipment package upon landing. At the same time, the structural design of this equipment package can be placed inside a rescue capsule to achieve high-precision high-altitude delivery.

[0016] The present invention provides a method for deploying a high-altitude parachute rescue equipment package. The package is placed inside a rescue capsule and deployed as a whole. After the rescue capsule has fallen a certain distance, a deceleration parachute pulls the package out for a slow descent. The deployment accuracy is related to the height of the package's slow descent. Therefore, this method can increase the deployment height while ensuring deployment accuracy, thereby achieving high-precision deployment at high altitudes. At the same time, since the height of the package's slow descent is relatively small, the landing loss of the package can be reduced. Combined with the unique internal and external multi-layer structure of the package, the landing loss of the package can be further reduced. Attached Figure Description

[0021] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention, the solutions of the present invention will be further described below. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments of the present invention and the features thereof can be combined with each other.

[0022] In this description, it should be noted that the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. It should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joint" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms according to the specific circumstances.

[0023] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention, but the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only some embodiments of the invention, and not all embodiments.

[0024] The specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the figures. Example 1

[0025] This embodiment provides a high-altitude drop parachute rescue equipment package, including an inner cylinder 1, a coating 2, a webbing 3, and a support net 4.

[0026] Inner cylinder 1 The inner cylinder 1 includes an upper end plate 11 and a lower end plate 12 that are parallel to each other, and a connecting wall connecting the upper end plate 11 and the lower end plate 12. The upper end plate 11, the lower end plate 12 and the connecting wall form a storage area for accommodating rescue supplies.

[0027] Specifically, the connecting wall includes two connecting strips 13, which are arranged vertically and fixed between the edge of the upper end plate 11 and the edge of the lower end plate 12. The two connecting strips 13 are connected by a skin 14, and the two ends of the skin 14 extend to the upper end plate 11 and the lower end plate 12 respectively. The circumferential angle of the skin 14 is less than or equal to 180°. The part between the upper end plate 11 and the lower end plate 12 without the skin 14 is provided with a pressure bar 15. The pressure bar 15 is arranged vertically and can be detachably fixed between the edge of the upper end plate 11 and the edge of the lower end plate 12. The inner sidewall of the connecting strip 13 is provided with multiple sets of receiving grooves distributed vertically at intervals. The receiving grooves of the two connecting strips 13 are correspondingly arranged, and at least one set of receiving grooves is engaged with a partition 16. In use, firstly, at least one end of the pressure bar 15 is detached from the corresponding end plate, creating a disassembly / removal opening in the area between the upper end plate 11 and the lower end plate 12 where the skin 14 is not located. Since the circumferential angle of the skin 14 is less than or equal to 180°, the circumferential angle corresponding to the disassembly / removal opening is greater than or equal to 180°. This allows the partition 16 to be inserted into the accommodating area through the disassembly / removal opening and engaged with one of the receiving grooves. Then, the pressure bar is locked. The partition 16 divides the accommodating area into two or more chambers, enabling the categorized loading of items and making the design more user-friendly.

[0028] More specifically, the number and position of the partitions 16 can be designed according to actual needs.

[0029] More specifically, one end of the pressure bar 15 is hinged, and the other end is connected via a pin. That is, the upper end of the pressure bar 15 is hinged to the upper end plate 11, and the lower end is connected to the lower end plate 12 via a pin; or the lower end of the pressure bar 15 is hinged to the lower end plate 12, and the upper end is connected to the upper end plate 11 via a pin. In use, the pin is removed, and rotating the pressure bar 15 forms the aforementioned opening. Of course, the detachable fixing of the pressure bar 15 can also be achieved using bolts or magnetic attachments.

[0030] It should be noted that the above is only a preferred structure of the connecting wall designed in this embodiment, and a partition 16 is added based on this preferred structure; in other embodiments, the connecting wall may also omit the connecting strip 13 and the pressure bar 15, and the partition 16 may not be provided, and the angle corresponding to the skin 14 is 360°, that is, the skin 14 forms a cylindrical structure around the perimeter, and the two ends of the skin 14 are respectively connected to the upper end plate 11 and the lower end plate 12, and at least one end is detachably connected to enable the storage and retrieval of rescue supplies.

[0031] Coat 2 The coating 2 is wrapped around the outside of the inner tube 1 and has an opening for attaching and detaching the inner tube 1. The opening is opened and closed by a zipper 21.

[0032] Specifically, the zipper 21 is L-shaped and covers both ends and side walls of the inner tube 1. The L-shaped zipper 21 makes it easier to insert or remove the inner tube 1.

[0033] More specifically, the outer sides of the upper end plate 11 and the lower end plate 12 are both provided with slots that are adapted to the zipper 21. The slots allow the zipper 21 to be placed in the slots after the inner tube 1 and the coating 2 are assembled. On the one hand, this can limit the position of the coating 2, and on the other hand, it can prevent the zipper 21 from protruding and causing the coating 2 and the inner tube 1 to not fit tightly.

[0034] It should be noted that the above is only a preferred structure of the zipper 21 designed in this embodiment; in other embodiments, the zipper 21 may also be set as a straight line or other shapes, as long as the inner tube 1 can be inserted into the bag 2 or taken out from the bag through the opening corresponding to the zipper 21.

[0035] Furthermore, the bottom of the coating 2 is provided with a first cushioning base 22. The first cushioning base 22 can be made of a flexible material with cushioning properties such as rubber. The cushioning structure is a conventional method in this field and will not be described in detail here. The design of the first cushioning base 22 can improve the overall impact resistance of the bag.

[0036] Furthermore, the top of the coating 2 is provided with a handle 23, which makes it easier to take out and put in.

[0037] Furthermore, a double-sided waterproof fabric can be used as the main material of the cover 2, and through the design of sewing and heat sealing process, the bag can meet the waterproof requirements, thus meeting the rescue needs of high-altitude areas, cold regions and marine environments.

[0038] 3-way tube The 3-piece set is attached to the outside of the coating 2.

[0039] It should be noted that the shape-adhesive tube 3 has two functions: first, to maintain the shape of the package and protect the inner coating 2 and inner tube 1; second, to increase the overall weight of the package and meet the weight-counting design requirements.

[0040] Support mesh cover 4 The support net cover 4 is wrapped around the outside of the V-shaped tube 3 and the outside of the lower end plate 12 to form a barrel-shaped structure. The opening edge of the barrel-shaped structure is provided with a connecting hanger 41.

[0041] Specifically, the connecting lifting element 41 is a lifting ring, which, when used with a spring-loaded opening, enables the lifting connection. Of course, the connecting lifting element 41 can also be a hook or other commonly used lifting connection structures.

[0042] Furthermore, a second cushioning base 42 is provided at the bottom of the barrel-shaped structure. The second cushioning base 42 can be made of a flexible material with cushioning properties, such as rubber. Cushioning structures are a conventional method in this field and will not be described in detail here. The design of the second cushioning base 42 can improve the overall impact resistance of the bag.

[0043] Based on the design of the second buffer base 42, the support mesh cover 4 in this embodiment includes multiple coaxial connecting rings 43 spaced apart along the axial direction. The multiple connecting rings 43 are connected and fixed by vertical bars 44. The top end of the vertical bar 44 extends outward above the uppermost connecting ring 43 and is connected to the connecting hanger 41, and the bottom end of the vertical bar 44 extends outward below the lowermost connecting ring 43 and is connected to the second buffer base 42. This structure has a reliable connection and strong structural stability.

[0044] The assembly process of the high-altitude drop parachute rescue equipment package in this embodiment is as follows: First, open the pressure bar 15 of the inner cylinder 1 by pulling out the pin installed on it and rotating it. Insert the preset number of partitions 16 into the receiving groove according to the preset position, and arrange the rescue supplies in the preset combination. Then close the pressure bar 15 and lock the pin. Open the zipper 21 of the cover 2 and lay it flat on the ground. Put the inner cylinder 1 in horizontally so that the zipper 21 fits into the groove of the inner cylinder 1. Cover the cover 2 and close the zipper 21. Turn the cover 2 up so that it stands vertically. Two people work together to lift the handle 23 of the cover 2 and put it into the webbing 3. It should be noted that the support net cover 4 needs to be properly assembled with the webbing 3 in advance. At this point, the rescue supply bag is assembled.

[0045] It should be noted that, by analyzing rescue missions in scenarios such as the sea, jungle, desert, and high-altitude cold regions, the shape tube 3 of the rescue equipment package can be sprayed with orange paint, and the main material of the coating 2 can be fluorescent fabric, in order to cope with sudden rescue missions in the wild and meet the high resolution of the rescue equipment package in various harsh environments. Example 2

[0046] This embodiment provides a method for delivering a high-altitude parachute rescue equipment package, including the following steps: S1. Connect the parachute rescue equipment pack to the deceleration parachute 5, and insert it into the rescue capsule from the tail end of the capsule; S2. Horizontally mount the life-saving capsule onto the drone and deliver it to the target area in the airspace above the target area; S3. The life-saving capsule detaches from the drone; S4. The life-saving capsule is free-falling to the designated height; S5. The tail end of the life-saving capsule separates, and the deceleration parachute 5 pulls the parachute rescue equipment pack outside the capsule and descends together to the target area.

[0047] Specifically, the parachute rescue equipment pack has two parts, namely the main pack 6 and the ground pack 7. The bottom edge of the barrel-shaped structure of the ground pack 7 and the lower end of the deceleration parachute 5 are also provided with connecting hangers 41. The connecting hanger 41 of the upper part of the ground pack 7 is connected to the connecting hanger 41 of the deceleration parachute 5 by a spring buckle, and the connecting hanger 41 of the lower part of the ground pack 7 is connected to the connecting hanger 41 of the main pack 6 by a spring buckle.

[0048] As is easily understood, both the main pack 6 and the land pack 7 include the item pack structure described in Example 1, with two differences: first, their sizes are different; second, the land pack 7 has connecting hangers 41 at both the top and bottom, while the main pack 6 only has a connecting hanger 41 at the top. The main pack 6 is used to carry general-purpose rescue supplies, such as food, medicine, and communication equipment; the land pack 7 is used to carry tents, high-altitude oxygen generators, etc.

[0049] The above are merely specific embodiments of the present invention, enabling those skilled in the art to understand or implement the present invention. Although detailed descriptions have been provided with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments, and they should all be covered within the protection scope of the claims.
