[0027] 2) pre-launch detection action: before the rocket is launched, the pressure in the buffer cylinder 05 needs to be measured, the specific method is to use a handheld pressure gauge or an online pressure sensor to access the pressure measuring port, which can directly read the air pressure value in the buffer cylinder 05, when the air pressure does not meet the minimum pressure requirement, use the inflation device to supplement the pressure;
[0028] 3) pre-launch deflation action: before the rocket is launched, the high-pressure gas in the rodless cavity of the air cylinder cylinder 01 is discharged, so that the present application can continuously exert a pulling load on the supporting arm 10 under the action of the spring 04, at this time the rocket has not left the supporting arm 10, and the supporting arm 10 cannot be reversed;
