The invention belongs to the technical field of weapon systems, and particularly relates to a small ammunition air-drop mechanism which comprises a bottom plate, an embracing ring seat, an embracing ring, a rotating shaft, a plug pin, a plug pin support, a connecting rod, a steering engine, a
rocker arm and an adaptive block. In an air-drop state, ammunition is clamped and fixed by the embracing ring. The air-drop mechanism serves as an ammunition air-drop
system and is fixed to the flying platform through the bottom plate, the steering engine rotates and drives the connecting rod to move after receiving a
control signal, then movable limiting of the embracing ring is relieved, and ammunition freely falls under the action of gravity. In this way, the ammunition air-drop process is completed. The airdrop mechanism has the outstanding advantages that the problems that a conventional airdrop mechanism is large in weight, inconvenient to operate and the like are solved, the airdrop mechanism has the advantages of being high in strength, compact in structure, small in size, light in weight, easy and convenient to operate and the like, quick response can be achieved after a
control signal is received, embracing ring release activity
synchronism and reliability are high, and the airdrop mechanism can adapt to different flight platforms such as unmanned / manned aerial vehicles and rotor / fixed-wing aircrafts and is suitable for large-scale popularization. And the method has a great popularization and application space.
