AI Technical Summary
Conventional parachute-based rescue systems for rotary-wing aircraft face challenges such as damage risk from pyrotechnic propellants, hazardous material classification, and interference with rotor components during deployment, which complicates retrofitting and affects flight characteristics.
A parachute system with a lightweight, low-friction inner container and tubular outer container design, using mechanical deployment mechanisms, ensures safe and rapid deployment without pyrotechnics, and minimizes interference with aircraft components by arranging the system along the tail boom.
The system effectively prevents parachute damage and ensures reliable deployment, maintaining aircraft stability and reducing the risk of collision with rotor components, while allowing for compact and aerodynamic integration.
