On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the present invention more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0045] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a ground launch platform comprises:

[0046] A support module 2, the support module 2 comprises a spliced ​​frame structure, and a lifting mechanism 4 is provided at the top of the support module 2;

[0047] The first half sleeve 5 and the second half sleeve 6, the first half sleeve 5 is arranged at the top of the support module 2 and below the lifting mechanism 4, and the second half sleeve 6 is detachably connected with the first half sleeve 5 to form a first cylindrical structure:

[0048] A rotating module 3, the rotating module 3 is used to install the missile, the lifting mechanism 4 is used to lift the rotating module 3, and the rotating module 3 is provided with a rotating shaft 7 that matches the first cylindrical structure;

[0049] The limiting mechanism 1 is arranged at the top of the supporting module 2 and is used to control the inclination angle of the rotating module 3 .

[0050] Specifically, the support module 2 is trapezoidal in shape, which is convenient for dispersed transportation, can be manually carried to dangerous areas, and provides stable support after assembly. The rotating module 3 is lifted into place by the lifting mechanism 4 to realize the lifting and lowering of ammunition, and the first half-axle sleeve 5 and the second half-axle sleeve 6 are installed in conjunction with the rotating shaft 7, thereby facilitating the rotation of the rotating module 3 to adjust the angle.

[0051] The first half-axle sleeve 5 and the second half-axle sleeve 6 are detachably connected to each other, and the rotating shaft 7 can be snap-fitted with the first half-axle sleeve 5 without axial movement. Then, the second half-axle sleeve 6 and the first half-axle sleeve 5 form a first cylindrical structure to connect the rotating shaft 7, so that the rotating shaft 7 can rotate in the first cylindrical structure.

[0052] Further, the lifting mechanism 4 can be integrated on the support module 2 or assembled to the support module 2 in individual components in sequence. A centering roller bearing that mates with the first cylindrical structure can be provided on the rotating shaft 7, which can compensate for eccentricity tolerances and reduce rotational resistance.

[0053] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism 4 includes two roller groups 4.1. The two roller groups 4.1 are symmetrically arranged at the top of the support module 2 through an L-shaped bracket, and the two roller groups 4.1 lift the rotating module 3 through a towing rope.

[0054] Specifically, a winch 4.2 is provided on the side wall of the support module 2. The winch 4.2 and the roller group 4.1 form a winch structure through a towing rope. During use, the rotating module 3 is避让 by swinging the towing rope, going around from one side of the first half shaft sleeve 5 to above the first half shaft sleeve 5, so that the rotating shaft 7 is connected to the first half shaft sleeve 5.

[0055] In this embodiment, an elastic rack assembly is detachably connected to the rotating module 3.

[0056] Specifically, a missile is connected through the elastic rack assembly, and the elastic rack assembly is provided with various different model specifications.

[0057] In this embodiment, the rotating module 3 includes an H-shaped frame, and the limiting mechanism 1 includes:

[0058] An arc-shaped groove 1.1, which is set with the first half shaft sleeve 5 as the center of the circle;

[0059] A third half shaft sleeve 8 and a fourth half shaft sleeve 9. The third half shaft sleeve 8 is slidably connected in the arc-shaped groove 1.1 through a slider. The fourth half shaft sleeve 9 is detachably connected to the third half shaft sleeve 8 to form a second cylindrical structure. The two ends of the H-shaped frame are respectively connected to the first cylindrical structure and the second cylindrical structure.

[0060] Specifically, the inclination angle of the rotating module 3 is adjusted by sliding the second cylindrical structure in the arc-shaped groove 1.1.

[0061] In this embodiment, the frame structure includes:

[0062] A first rectangular frame 2.1 and two U-shaped frames 2.2. The two U-shaped frames 2.2 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the first rectangular frame 2.1 to form a structure in the shape of the Chinese character "mu";

[0063] Two side beams 2.3, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first rectangular frame 2.1;

[0064] A cross beam 2.4, which is arranged between the two side beams 2.3;

[0065] A first diagonal brace 2.5, which is arranged between the side beam 2.3 and the U-shaped frame 2.2;

[0066] The second diagonal brace 2.6 is arranged between the side beam 2.3 and the first rectangular frame 2.1.

[0067] Specifically, the U-shaped structure is used as the bottom side of the trapezoidal structure, the side beam 2.3 and the cross beam 2.4 form a U-shaped structure as the top side of the trapezoidal structure, the first diagonal brace 2.5 is used as the hypotenuse of the trapezoidal structure, and the second diagonal brace 2.6 is used as a reinforcing rib.

[0068] In this embodiment, a limiting bolt is also included. A plurality of first limiting holes 1.2 are arranged on the periphery of the arc groove 1.1. A second limiting hole 1.3 matching with the first limiting hole 1.2 is arranged on the slider. The limiting bolt is used to pass through the first limiting hole 1.2 and the second limiting hole 1.3.

[0069] Specifically, the second limiting hole 1.3 and the slider form a butterfly-shaped structure, and the limiting bolt locks the inclination angle of the rotating module 3 by passing through the first limiting hole 1.2 and the second limiting hole 1.3.

[0070] In this embodiment, the first limiting holes 1.2 are arranged in a staggered manner.

[0071] Specifically, the density of the adjustable inclination angle is increased by staggered arrangement of the first limiting holes 1.2.

[0072] Furthermore, the first limiting holes 1.2 are arranged in two rows, and the first limiting holes 1.2 in each row are spaced 4 degrees apart, and the two rows are staggered 2 degrees apart, so that the adjustable angle interval of the first limiting holes 1.2 is 2 degrees, which not only ensures the adjustment accuracy, but also avoids the first limiting holes 1.2 being arranged too densely, which would result in insufficient support strength of the first limiting holes 1.2.

[0073] In this embodiment, the first limiting hole 1.2 includes a first hole close to the center side and a second hole away from the center side, and the first hole and the second hole are arranged in a group.

[0074] Specifically, the first hole and the second hole are used as backup for each other and are used to pass through the limit bolts at the same time. The two sides of the slider are subjected to force respectively to ensure the stability of the limit, improve safety, and avoid the danger of a single limit bolt breaking.

[0075] In this embodiment, the first half sleeve 5 is rotatably connected to the support module 2 .

[0076] Specifically, the first half sleeve 5 can be rotated to adjust the opening downward, without the need for the rotating module 3 to move around. When in use, the lifting module lifts the rotating module 3, so that the rotating shaft 7 is close to the first half sleeve 5 from bottom to top, and then the second half sleeve 6 is connected to the first half sleeve 5 to form a first cylindrical structure.

[0077] In this embodiment, foot nail fixing holes 10 are arranged on the U-shaped frame 2.2.

[0078] Specifically, the foot nail fixing hole 10 is used to cooperate with the foot nail for positioning and installation.

[0079] In this embodiment, a ground launch platform is used, taking assembly as an example:

[0080] The launch platform is modular in design, with each component weighing no more than 15kg. It can be transported separately and assembled uniformly, and each component is universal and can be fixed by screws, bolts, buckles, locks, etc.

[0081] When assembling, first assemble the support module 2 and fix it with the foot nails;

[0082] Install the lifting mechanism 4, so that the rotating module 3 is connected to the lifting mechanism 4, and the rotating module 3 is located at the lower end of the supporting module 2;

[0083] The missile is fixed to the rotating module 3, and the rotating module 3 and the missile are lifted to the top of the supporting module 2 by the lifting mechanism 4, and connected to the first cylindrical structure and the second cylindrical structure respectively by the two ends of the H-shaped frame;

[0084] The angle of the rotating module 3 is adjusted and fixed by means of a limit bolt.

[0085] The embodiments of the present invention have been described above, and the above description is exemplary, not exhaustive, and is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and changes will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments.
