DETAILED DESCRIPTION

In the various drawings, the same elements are denoted by the same or similar reference numerals. For the sake of clarity, the various parts in the drawings are not drawn to scale.

[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 8 The application provides a booster separation mechanism of an aircraft, comprising: a guide rod 2 for being hinged to the aircraft, one end of the guide rod 2 away from the aircraft is provided with a fixed rod 21 perpendicular to the length direction of the guide rod 2, both ends of the fixed rod 21 are provided with a waist-shaped boss; a separation frame assembly is provided with a through hole in the length direction thereof at the first end, the through hole is provided with an opening at the first end face, the separation frame assembly is rotationally connected with the fixed rod 21 through the through hole, the waist-shaped boss is rotated relative to the through hole and can slide out of the opening, so that the separation frame assembly is separated from the fixed rod 21, the second end of the separation frame assembly is used for hinging an extension rod of the booster; a first connecting assembly is arranged on the booster close to the first end of the extension rod and is used for connecting the aircraft, the first connecting assembly is used for slidingly installing the booster to the aircraft along the length direction thereof, and the first connecting assembly is used for limiting the booster in the radial direction; a second connecting assembly is arranged on the booster away from the second end of the extension rod and is used for connecting the aircraft, the second connecting assembly is provided with a separation bolt 11 for controlling the separation of the booster from the aircraft.

[0040] In the embodiment, the separation bolt 11 is an explosive bolt, the second connecting assembly realizes the separation of the booster from the aircraft under the action of the separation bolt 11 under a preset condition or in real time, and under the connecting action of the extension rod of the booster and the separation frame assembly, the booster drives the separation frame assembly to rotate around the fixed rod 21 of the guide rod 2, when the separation frame assembly rotates to the length direction of the opening and the waist-shaped boss coincides, the waist-shaped boss slides out of the opening of the through hole, that is, the separation of the separation frame assembly is realized, as a person skilled in the art should understand that the guide rod 2 and the separation frame assembly play a constraint limiting role in the separation and separation of the booster from the aircraft. After the booster is separated from the aircraft, the booster is affected by the flight environment and collides with the aircraft.

[0041] In the embodiment, with reference to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the guide rod 2 is connected to the aircraft through a front support 1, and the guide rod 2 is hinged to the front support 1. It can be understood that the hinged guide rod 2 can rotate around the front support 1, and the length direction of the guide rod 2 and the aircraft can be consistent.

[0042] In the embodiment, a tension spring 12 is arranged between the front support 1 and the guide rod 2, and the tension spring 12 can generate a force to rotate the guide rod 2 towards the front of the aircraft. It can be understood that, after the shedding rack assembly is separated from the fixed rod 21, the guide rod 2 is rotated around the front support 1 under the action of the tension spring 12, so that the guide rod 2 is consistent with the length direction of the aircraft, or the guide rod 2 is attached to the aircraft.

[0043] In the embodiment, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , the shedding rack assembly comprises a main rack plate 4 with a C-shaped cross section, and a front joint 3 connected to a first end of the main rack plate 4, and an opening is arranged in the through hole at an end of the front joint 3. A second end of the main rack plate 4 is hingedly connected to an extension rod of the booster.

[0044] The shedding rack assembly further comprises a rear joint 5 hingedly connected to a second end of the main rack plate 4, and an adapter ring 6 comprising two abutting tiles, each tile being provided with a radially extending ear plate 61 at two ends in the radial direction, the adapter ring 6 being slidingly arranged on the extension rod of the booster and being limited by an end of the extension rod, and the ear plate 61 of the adapter ring 6 being clamped in a through slot arranged in the rear joint 5.

[0045] As can be understood by those skilled in the art, the main rack plate 4 and the front joint 3 can be connected together by a bolt assembly, and the rear joint 5 can also be connected by a pin shaft, so as to ensure that the rear joint 5 is hingedly connected to the main rack plate 4 and the rear joint 5 can rotate around the pin shaft. The cross section of the adapter ring 6 includes but is not limited to a circular shape, and the cross section of each tile is semicircular, so as to realize that the two tiles are abuttingly arranged on the extension rod and the ear plate 61 of the adapter ring 6 is fixed by the through slot in the rear joint 5, and the two tiles are also abuttingly arranged together.

[0046] In an optional embodiment, a circular hole is arranged in each ear plate 61, and a pin can be used to fix the adapter ring 6 by using a bolt assembly.

[0047] In the embodiment, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6The first connecting assembly includes: a ball-and-socket connector 7 for connecting the aircraft, the ball-and-socket connector 7 having a guide hole 71 with a spherical end; a ball-head support 8 for connecting the booster, the ball-head support 8 having a ball 81 that can extend into the guide hole 71; and several gaskets disposed between the ball-and-socket connector 7 and the aircraft for adjusting the distance between the booster and the aircraft. During booster installation, the ball 81 structure at one end of the ball-head support 8 extends into the guide hole 71 of the ball-and-socket connector 7 and abuts against the spherical guide hole 71, allowing the booster to rotate only around the guide hole 71 or exit the guide hole 71. The connection between the booster and the landing gear assembly, as well as the connection of the second connecting assembly, secures the booster. When the second connecting assembly is disconnected, the landing gear assembly limits the booster, allowing it to retract only along the guide hole 71, thus disconnecting the first connecting assembly.

[0048] In addition, the adapter ring 6 and the end limit of the extension rod are provided with a movable margin. The length of this movable margin is greater than the retraction length of the ball head support 8 from the ball socket connection seat 7, that is, the retraction distance of the booster along the guide hole 71.

[0049] In this embodiment, reference Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The second connection assembly includes: a rear support 10 for connection to the booster; and a rear connector 9 for connection to the rear support 10 via the release bolt 11, the rear connector 9 being used to connect to the aircraft.

[0050] The distance between the booster and the aircraft at the connection point can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number of shims between the ball socket connector 7 and the booster. This allows for adjustment of the angle between the booster's thrust line and the aircraft's flight direction, meeting the needs of different flight missions and improving the booster's efficiency.

[0051] The booster separation and detachment mechanism for the aircraft provided in this application can separate the second connecting component through the separation bolt 11 of the second connecting component. Under the inertia of the aircraft, the booster slides away from the aircraft. Due to the structural relationship between the guide rod 2 and the detachment assembly, the booster drives the detachment assembly to rotate relative to the guide rod 2. When the waist-shaped boss of the fixed rod 21 slides out of the opening of the through hole of the detachment assembly, the detachment assembly separates from the guide rod 2, realizing the separation and detachment of the booster. Under the limiting action of the detachment assembly, the booster rotates downward along the fixed rod 21, avoiding accidents such as collisions between the detachment assembly and the aircraft.

[0052] It is to be noted that, in the present document, relational terms such as first and second and the like can be used solely to distinguish one entity or action from another entity or action without necessarily requiring or implying any actual such relationship or order between such entities or actions. Moreover, the terms "comprises", "comprising", or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements does not include only those elements but can include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. An element proceeded by "comprises... a" does not, without more constraints, exclude the existence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises the element.

[0053] Finally, it should be noted that the above-mentioned embodiments are merely intended for the purpose of illustration rather than limiting the present application. Based on the above description, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made by those skilled in the art. Here, it is not necessary or possible to enumerate all the embodiments. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of the present application.
