The present application belongs to the technical field of
aviation experiment data collection, and relates to a helicopter external load data collection device,
system and method. The device comprises: a tension and compression
force sensor installed at a sling, a hanging point and a connection position of the external load data collection
barrel of the external load, used for measuring
dynamic tension changes in hoisting operation and transmitting the changes to a multi-
channel data collection
machine case, feeding back actual force of the external load on the helicopter, providing a direct basis of mechanical state for evaluating
flight safety threshold, preventing overload or
structural failure; a motion sensor is a sensing unit, used for capturing three-dimensional motion state of the helicopter and the external load in real time and transmitting the state to the multi-
channel data collection
machine case; a flight parameter collector is used for providing GPS height,
longitude,
latitude and heading data and transmitting the data to the multi-
channel data collection
machine case; a collection and loading modularized board card is arranged in the multi-channel data collection machine case, supporting multi-channel
signal synchronous collection and
processing, and communicating with a measurement and control computer in the helicopter cabin through a
data transmission module.
