Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of rocket launch technology, and in particular to a system, method, device, and storage medium for controlling the safe launch of a rocket. Background Technology

[0002] In weather modification operations, rain-seeding rockets play a crucial role. Their core launch mechanism relies on a sophisticated ignition system: operators use ground control equipment to apply specific voltage and current pulses to the ignition pins mounted at the rocket's tail. This electrical signal acts as a precise "key," triggering the rocket's internal fuse. Once activated, the fuse ignites the rocket's solid propellant, generating high-temperature, high-pressure gas that provides the rocket's propulsion, propelling it to the designated cloud area to disperse the catalyst. However, the system's greatest characteristic, and also its significant weakness, lies in its complete reliance on human intervention. This high degree of human involvement makes the entire launch process highly susceptible to human error and potential launch accidents. Summary of the Invention

[0006] When the digital unlocking module is in the locked state, the ignition contact is disconnected from the ignition fuse, and an open circuit is formed between the ignition fuse and the ignition system; when the digital unlocking module is in the unlocked state, the ignition contact is connected to the ignition fuse, and a closed circuit is formed between the ignition fuse and the ignition system.

[0007] The unlock controller is used to read the rocket's UID from the digital unlock module and send the UID to the ignition control system;

[0014] In some possible implementations of the first aspect, when the digital unlocking module is in a locked state, the digital unlocking module uses the 1-Wire protocol for communication and provides parasitic power to itself in conjunction with the ground wire; when the digital unlocking module is in an unlocked state, the digital unlocking module relies on the parasitic capacitor for power, and switches to a locked state when the power of the parasitic capacitor is depleted.

[0015] In some possible implementations of the first aspect, the unlock password is sent by sending an unlock signaling message, which includes the unlock password and the maximum unlock duration; the digital unlock module is also used to stop unlocking and remain locked if the time it takes to unlock exceeds the maximum unlock duration.

[0023] The ignition control system responds to the successful unlocking message and initiates ignition and firing.

[0024] In some possible implementations of the second aspect, the ignition control system ignites and fires in response to a successful unlock message, including:

[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this disclosure, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0037] Furthermore, the term "and / or" in this article is merely a description of the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A existing alone, A and B existing simultaneously, or B existing alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.

[0038] In view of the problems in the background art, the embodiments of this disclosure provide a system, method, device and storage medium for controlling the safe launch of rockets, which can realize the automatic control of the entire rocket launch process, thereby completely avoiding the risks introduced by human factors and fundamentally improving the safety of rocket launches.

[0039] The following detailed description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, illustrates a system, method, apparatus, and storage medium for controlling the safe launch of a rocket, provided by the embodiments of this disclosure.

[0040] Figure 1 The diagram illustrates an architecture of a system for controlling the safe launch of a rocket, as provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, the system may include: a digital unlocking module, an unlocking controller, an ignition control system, and an unlocking server.

[0041] The digital unlocking module is installed inside the rocket, connected internally to the rocket's ignition fuse and externally to the rocket's ignition contacts. One end of the unlocking controller is connected to the digital unlocking module via the ignition contacts, and the other end is connected to the ignition control system. The ignition control system communicates with the unlocking server via a network.

[0042] When the digital unlocking module is in the locked state, the ignition contact is disconnected from the ignition fuse, and the ignition control system is connected to the ignition contact, thus creating an open circuit between the ignition fuse and the ignition system. When the digital unlocking module is in the unlocked state, the ignition contact is connected to the ignition fuse, and the ignition control system is connected to the ignition contact, thus creating a closed circuit between the ignition fuse and the ignition system.

[0043] During rocket launch, the digital unlocking module, unlocking controller, ignition control system, and unlocking server are used to perform the following steps:

[0044] The unlock controller is used to read the rocket's UID from the digital unlock module and send the UID to the ignition control system.

[0045] The ignition control system is used to send an unlock password retrieval request to the unlock server based on the UID.

[0046] The unlocking server is used to respond to unlocking password retrieval requests by sending the unlocking password corresponding to the UID to the digital unlocking module via the ignition control system and the unlocking controller.

[0047] The digital unlocking module is used to unlock the device based on the unlocking password. For example, it compares the received unlocking password with the internally pre-written unlocking password. If they match, the device is considered to have unlocked successfully. Then, it moves from the locked state to the unlocked state and sends an unlocking success message to the ignition control system via the unlocking controller.

[0048] The ignition control system is used to initiate ignition and launch in response to a successful unlock message. Specifically, in response to the successful unlock message, it begins measuring resistance. If the resistance measurement result meets the launch conditions, for example, if the resistance measurement result indicates that the resistance is normal, then ignition and launch are initiated.

[0049] In some embodiments, when the digital unlocking module is in a locked state, it uses the 1-Wire protocol for communication and provides parasitic power to itself in conjunction with the ground wire; when the digital unlocking module is in an unlocked state, it relies on parasitic capacitors for power, and when the power of the parasitic capacitors is depleted, the digital unlocking module switches to a locked state.

[0050] In some embodiments, the unlock password is sent by sending an unlock signaling message, which includes the unlock password and the maximum unlock duration. To this end, the digital unlock module is further configured to determine that the unlock timeout has occurred if the time taken to unlock exceeds the maximum unlock duration, and then stop unlocking and maintain the locked state.

[0051] In some embodiments, the UID and unlock password are written to the internal memory of the digital unlock module during rocket production and simultaneously uploaded to the unlock server. For example, the UID can be read via signaling.

[0052] In some embodiments, the unlock controller communicates with the ignition control system via signaling.

[0053] In summary, this disclosure achieves at least the following technical effects:

[0054] The aforementioned system enables fully automated control of the entire rocket launch process, thereby completely eliminating the risks introduced by human factors and fundamentally improving the safety of rocket launches.

[0055] The above is an introduction to the system embodiments. The following method embodiments will further illustrate the solution described in this disclosure.

[0056] Figure 2 A flowchart illustrating a method for controlling the safe launch of a rocket, as provided in an embodiment of this disclosure, is shown. Figure 2 As shown, method 200 is applied to the system described above, including:

[0057] S210, the unlock controller reads the rocket's UID from the digital unlock module and sends the UID to the ignition control system.

[0058] S220: The ignition control system sends an unlock password retrieval request to the unlocking server based on the UID.

[0059] S230, in response to the unlock password acquisition request, the unlock server sends the unlock password corresponding to the UID to the digital unlock module via the ignition control system and the unlock controller.

[0060] S240, the digital unlocking module unlocks the device according to the unlocking password, enters the unlocking state from the locked state, and sends the unlocking success information to the ignition control system via the unlocking controller.

[0061] S250, the ignition control system responds to the unlock success message and initiates ignition and launch.

[0062] Furthermore, in response to the successful unlocking information, the ignition control system begins to measure the resistance. If the resistance measurement result meets the launch conditions, ignition and launch are then initiated.
