Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of aerospace technology, and in particular to a liquid rocket traction and release device. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of the aerospace industry, various technologies involved in the rocket field have also achieved rapid progress. To carry more payloads into space, large launch vehicles are required. To increase thrust, large launch vehicles often use multiple engines arranged side by side. To ensure the safe flight of the rocket, a tow release device is required. After the rocket is ignited, the tow release device must ensure that all engines are properly started before the rocket is released. Therefore, after ignition, the rocket body must be restrained. After confirming that all engines are in normal operation, the restraint mechanism is opened to ensure the safe flight of the rocket. Therefore, rocket restraint release technology is crucial. Currently, domestic restraint release mechanisms all use at least two actuator cylinder systems to control the restraint and reverse functions. This results in a large restraint release mechanism and a complex hydraulic system, which brings inconvenience to the operator when installing it. Furthermore, the entire device is complex to operate, increasing the probability of error and significantly increasing construction costs.
[0003] There is an urgent need to provide a liquid rocket traction release device that can simplify the control system, facilitate installation and operation, improve structural safety and reliability, and greatly save costs. Summary of the Invention

[0025] In addition, numerous specific details are provided in the detailed description below to better illustrate the present application. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the present application can be practiced without certain specific details. In some instances, methods, means, components, and circuits well known to those skilled in the art are not described in detail in order to highlight the main purpose of the present application.
[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the present invention provides a liquid rocket traction and release device, comprising a plurality of traction and release mechanisms disposed on the surface of a launch platform and used to lock a rocket leg 1. Each traction and release mechanism comprises at least a fixed structure 2, a clamping device 3, and a first rotating shaft 4. The fixed structure 2 and the clamping device 3 are connected via the first rotating shaft 4. The bottom of the fixed structure 2 is fixedly connected to the launch platform, and a first accommodating space 5 for accommodating the clamping device 3 is provided on the top. The upper portion of the clamping device 3 abuts against the rocket leg 1 to lock the rocket leg 1, and the lower portion can rotate circumferentially along the surface of the first rotating shaft 4.
[0027] The weight of the pressing device 3 on the side close to the rocket foot 1 is less than the weight of the pressing device 3 on the side away from the rocket foot 1.
[0028] The clamping device 3 includes a pressing head 6, a connecting assembly 7, a first driving device 8, a second rotating shaft 9 and a first shell 10 containing a second accommodating space 11. The pressing head 6, the connecting assembly 7 and the first driving device 8 are all located inside the second accommodating space 11. The upper end of the pressing head 6 is used to abut against the rocket foot 1. The lower end of the pressing head 6 close to the rocket foot 1 is fixed in the first shell 10 through the second rotating shaft 9, and the pressing head 6 can rotate circumferentially along the surface of the second rotating shaft 9. The lower end of the pressing head 6 away from the rocket foot 1 is connected to the output end of the connecting assembly 7, and the input end of the connecting assembly 7 is connected to the output end of the first driving device 8.
[0029] The first driving device 8 contracts in a direction perpendicular to the rocket axis to drive the connecting assembly 7 to drive the lower end of the pressing head 6 to rotate along the second rotating axis 9, thereby driving the upper end of the pressing head 6 to move away from the rocket foot 1, so that the entire clamping device 3 rotates circumferentially along the first rotating axis 4 and then falls into the first accommodating space 5, completing the release of the rocket foot.
[0030] Specifically, the present invention provides a liquid rocket traction release device, which includes multiple traction release mechanisms disposed on the launch platform surface and used to lock the rocket legs 1. Each traction release mechanism is composed of a fixing structure 2, a clamping device 3, and a first rotating shaft 4.
[0031] During use, the first driving device 8 contracts in a direction perpendicular to the rocket axis, driving the connecting assembly 7 to drive the lower end of the pressing head 6 to rotate along the second rotation axis 9, thereby driving the upper end of the pressing head 6 to move away from the rocket leg 1. Since the weight of the side of the pressing device 3 close to the rocket leg 1 is less than the weight of the side of the pressing device 3 away from the rocket leg 1, the entire pressing device 3 rotates circumferentially along the first rotation axis 4 and falls into the first accommodating space 5, completing the release of the rocket leg 1.
[0032] The entire liquid rocket traction release device smoothly completes the opening and backward retraction of the traction release device through a set of driving devices and clever use of the uneven weight at both ends of the clamping device 3. It can simplify the control system, facilitate installation and operation, improve structural safety and reliability, and greatly save costs, laying the foundation for the safe takeoff of the rocket.
[0033] It should be pointed out that the fixed structure 2 includes a second shell 12 and a second driving device 13. In order to increase the activity space of the clamping device 3 and facilitate the rapid backward movement of the clamping device 3, for example, the second shell 12 includes a first containing shell 14 containing a first activity space and a second containing shell 15 containing a second activity space, and the second containing shell 15 is located at the upper part of the first containing shell 14 away from the rocket foot 1, wherein the lower part of the first containing shell 14 is used to be fixedly connected to the launch platform, the upper part of the first containing shell 14 is connected to the lower part of the second containing shell 15, and the upper part of the second containing shell 15 extends toward the side away from the first containing shell 14, and the first activity space and the second activity space are interconnected to form a first accommodating space 5.
[0034] In this embodiment, when the clamping device 3 is tilted back (after the first shell 10 is located in the second shell 12), in order to effectively fix the first shell 10 and prevent the first shell 10 from shaking, for example, the outer wall of the first containment shell 14 on the side away from the rocket foot 1 is provided with a locking opening 16 and a locking mechanism 17. The locking mechanism 17 includes a third rotating shaft 18 and a locking member 19. One end of the locking member 19 is fixed to the first containment shell 14 through the third rotating shaft 18 and can rotate circumferentially along the third rotating shaft 18. The other end of the locking member 19 is used to pass through the locking opening 16 and then abut against the clamping device 3 (abutting against the outer surface of the first shell 10) to fix the clamping device 3 in the first accommodating space 5. In order to make the clamping device 3 more firmly fixed, for example, a protrusion is provided on the first shell 10 of the clamping device 3 that matches one end of the locking member 19 (a protrusion is provided on the side wall of the first shell 10 on the side away from the rocket leg 1 and near the curved inclined surface end). After one end of the locking member 19 passes through the locking opening 16, it is tightly attached to the end face of the protrusion on the side away from the second shell 12, and the clamping device 3 is fixed in the first accommodating space 5. When the clamping device 3 is required to clamp the rocket leg 1, the locking member 19 is manually opened to separate the locking member 19 from the protrusion. In this embodiment, the locking member 19 has an L-shaped structure.
[0035] In addition, to facilitate the movement of the clamping device 3 and the fixation of the clamping device 3 to the rocket leg 1, for example, the second driving device 13 includes a hydraulic cylinder 22 and a support member 23. The telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 22 is connected to the support member 23 via a fifth rotation axis 24, and the support member 23 can rotate along the surface of the fifth rotation axis 24. The support member 23 has an obtuse triangle shape, with the obtuse end connected to the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 22. The first acute end corresponding to the long side is used to abut the outer wall of the bottom of the first shell 10, and the second acute end corresponding to the short side is fixed to the side wall of the first receiving shell 14 via a sixth rotation axis 25.
[0036] In the same embodiment, the second driving device 13 is located in the first receiving shell 14, and one end of the second driving device 13 is fixedly connected to the first receiving shell 14 through the fourth rotating shaft 21, and the other end is used to abut against the bottom of the first shell 14 to drive the first shell 14 to rotate circumferentially along the first rotating shaft 4.
[0037] In addition, in order to facilitate the fourth connecting member 29 to support the first shell 10 through the horizontal sliding guide groove, for example, a horizontal sliding guide groove 20 is provided at one end of the second containment shell 15 away from the first containment shell 14, and one end of the horizontal sliding guide groove 20 is a closed structure, and the other end is an open structure, and the opening of the open structure faces the side of the rocket foot 1.
[0038] During application, the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 22 extends to drive the first acute-angle end corresponding to the long side of the support 23 to move toward the side of the first shell 10, so that the first acute-angle end corresponding to the long side is tightly attached to the first shell 10 and continues to apply pressure to the first shell 10, thereby causing the first shell 10 to rotate along the first rotation axis until the pressure head 6 abuts against the rocket foot 1, and the telescopic end of the first drive device 8 is extended to push the slider into the horizontal sliding guide groove 20 (the second connecting shaft at least abuts against the lower slide of the horizontal sliding guide groove), thereby realizing the reset of the restraint and release (locking the rocket foot).
[0039] It is further explained that, in order to facilitate the rotation of the pressure head 6, for example, the outer shape of the pressure head 6 is roughly L-shaped. In order to ensure the stability of the pressure head structure, for example, the thickness of the pressure head 6 close to the end of the rocket arrow foot 1 gradually increases toward the bent part of the pressure head 6. Further facilitate the abutment of the pressure head 6 with the rocket arrow foot 1 and improve the connection speed of the pressure head 6 with the rocket arrow foot 1. For example, the upper part of the abutment end of the pressure head 6 with the rocket arrow foot 1 is an upward convex curved surface. In order to facilitate the rotation of the pressure head 6 and reduce the weight of the pressure head at the same time, for example, the end of the pressure head 6 away from the rocket arrow foot 1 is provided with two rotation holes (for cooperating with the second rotation axis and the seventh rotation axis), and the position of the pressure head located between the two rotation holes is provided with an upper concave portion.
[0040] In the same embodiment, the connecting assembly 7 includes a first connecting member 26 , a second connecting member 27 , a third connecting member 28 , a fourth connecting member 29 , a seventh rotating shaft 30 , an eighth rotating shaft 31 , a ninth rotating shaft 32 , a tenth rotating shaft 33 , an eleventh rotating shaft 34 and a twelfth rotating shaft 35 . The output end of the first connecting member 26 is connected to the pressure head 6 via a seventh rotating shaft 30. The input end of the first connecting member 26 is connected to the output end of the second connecting member 27 via an eighth rotating shaft 31. The fixed end of the second connecting member 27 (similar to a convex-shaped member) is connected to the first housing 10 via a ninth rotating shaft 32. The input end of the second connecting member 27 is connected to the output end of the third connecting member 28 via a tenth rotating shaft 33. The input end of the third connecting member 28 is connected to the output end of the fourth connecting member 29 via an eleventh rotating shaft 34. The input end of the fourth connecting member 29 is connected to the output end of the first drive device 8 via a twelfth rotating shaft 35. The first drive device 8 is a hydraulic cylinder structure, which is fixed within the first housing 10 by a fixing block, and the hydraulic cylinder structure moves with the first housing 10. To ensure the structural stability of the fixing block, for example, the fixing block has a cube shape. It is respectively placed on the middle and rear portion of the hydraulic cylinder structure (the front portion of the telescopic part) and is fixed to the first housing with locking bolts.
[0041] In the same embodiment, in order to facilitate the connection between the rocket foot 1 and the pressure head 6 (the rocket foot 1 is provided with an inner recess matching the pressure head 6), for example, the first shell 10 is a closed structure with an opening at one end, and the first shell 10 is close to the side of the rocket foot 1 and is provided with a first boss 36 for supporting the rocket foot 1 at the open end.
[0042] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 14 As shown, in order to prevent the components in the first shell 10 from being damaged by high temperature burning, for example, a heat shield 43 is provided on the side of the first boss 36 away from the rocket foot 1. The heat shield 43 is arranged between the first boss 36 and the pressure head 6. One end of the heat shield 43 is connected to the first boss 36 via the thirteenth rotation axis, and the other end of the heat shield 43 extends away from the first shell 10 and tilts toward the pressure head 6. When the first shell 10 falls backward, one end of the heat shield 43 rotates along the thirteenth rotation axis, so that the entire heat shield 43 covers the second accommodating space 11 (the part of the second accommodating space 11 close to the first boss), so that the upper part of the second accommodating space 11 forms a closed plate, isolating the high-temperature flame, and protecting the components in the second accommodating space 11, thereby reducing the damage of the components due to high temperature burning and ensuring the safe use of the fixing structure 2 and the clamping device 3.
[0043] In addition, a second boss 44 is provided on the first shell 10 at one end close to the rocket foot 1 and away from the opening end. The second boss 44 is provided with a rotation hole.
[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to reduce the weight of the first shell 10 and facilitate the rotation of the first shell 10, for example, the side of the first shell 10 close to the rocket foot 1 is provided with a U-shaped curved surface concave toward the center of the first shell 10, thereby achieving uneven weight on both sides of the first shell, that is, the weight of the side of the first shell 10 close to the rocket foot 1 is less than the weight of the side of the first shell 10 away from the rocket foot 1, which facilitates the rapid rotation of the first shell 10.
[0045] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, to facilitate the rotation of the first housing 10 while conserving space within the second housing 12, for example, the sidewall of the first housing 10, facing away from the rocket foot 1, transitions to the open end to form a curved, inclined surface. This curved, inclined surface not only reduces the rotation radius of the first housing 10 but also significantly conserves space within the second housing 12, further facilitating its installation and removal.
[0046] like Figure 1 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the first housing 10 is provided with a slideway 37 for moving the fourth connecting member 29. The fourth connecting member 29 includes a slider and boss components located on the upper and lower sides of the slider and extending away from each other. The boss components include an upper boss assembly 38 and a lower boss assembly 39. The upper boss assembly 38 includes two symmetrically arranged upper bosses, which are connected to the third connecting member 28 via an eleventh rotation axis 41. The lower boss assembly 39 includes two symmetrically arranged lower bosses, which are connected to the first driving device 8 via a twelfth rotation axis 35.
[0047] It should be noted that symmetrical double-row pulleys 40 are provided on both sides of the slider, and the double-row pulleys 40 can move along the slide. The pulleys on both sides of the double-row pulleys 40 close to the rocket foot 1 are connected by a first connecting shaft 41, and the pulleys on both sides of the double-row pulleys away from the rocket foot 1 are connected by a second connecting shaft 42. The extension of the two ends of the second connecting shaft 42 is larger than the extension of the two ends of the first connecting shaft 41. The two ends of the second connecting shaft 42 are located on the horizontal sliding guide groove 20 on the fixed structure 2 and can move freely along the horizontal sliding guide groove 20. Along the movement direction of the slider, the center line of the horizontal sliding guide groove 20 coincides with the center line of the slide.
[0048] When in use, the telescopic end of the first driving device 8 contracts, driving the lower boss assembly 39 to move toward the side of the rocket arrow foot 1, thereby driving the double-row pulley fixedly connected to the slider to move simultaneously along the horizontal sliding guide groove 20 and the slide 37 (the pulley of the double-row pulley close to the rocket arrow foot 1 is located on the slide, and the pulley of the double-row pulley away from the rocket arrow foot is located on the slide, while the two ends of the second connecting shaft are located on the horizontal sliding guide groove). The upper slide length of the horizontal sliding guide groove 20 is greater than the lower slide length. When the double-row pulley slides, when the second connecting shaft 42 moves a distance exceeding the length of the lower slide, the lower slide of the horizontal sliding guide groove 20 unlocks the second connecting shaft 42 (the lower slide loses support for the second connecting shaft). Since the weight of the clamping device close to the rocket arrow foot 1 is less than the weight of the clamping device 3 away from the rocket arrow foot 1, the entire clamping device 3 rotates circumferentially along the first rotating axis 4 and falls into the first accommodating space 5, completing the release of the rocket arrow foot 1.
[0049] In addition, in order to ensure the structural stability of the upper convex body and the lower convex body, for example, the cross-section of the upper convex body and the lower convex body (such as Figure 2 The shape of the cut section is similar to a triangle.
[0050] The above embodiments can be combined with each other and have corresponding technical effects.
[0051] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
