A plurality of recovery engines 661 are mounted circumferentially on the outer side of the upper part of the launch vehicle (preferably on the outer side of the shell section 612 or sleeve 621 or upper part of the first stage rocket body 1) by engine mounts 664 (which may of course be fixed directly in another way), the orientation of the engine nozzles 662 being fixedly arranged or adjustable obliquely upwards, upwards or outwards. Recovery boot 665 is located outside recovery engine 661 and helps to reduce aerodynamic drag in rocket flight. The recycling power cover 665 can be designed integrally by combining a one-stage arrow body 1 structure or a cone top cover 61 structure and a recycling power device 66, and preferably, in the embodiment shown in fig. 2B and 3, the recycling power cover 665 is fixedly connected with the outer side face of the cone top cover 61 in a matching mode, and a through hole is formed in the corresponding position of the tail end of the engine spray pipe 662. Alternatively, the recovery power cap 665 can be designed to accommodate engine steering in combination with engine steering or thrust direction adjustment. In some embodiments, the recycling engine 661 is further connected to a swing mechanism 663 (preferably, the swing mechanism 663 is disposed between the recycling engine 661 and the engine support 664, and the swing mechanism 663 includes a hinge mechanism and an actuating mechanism disposed horizontally/vertically), and the servo swing can be controlled by the control system, so as to control the orientation of the engine nozzle 662. The engine medium of the recovery power engine 661 can be transported upward through the pipeline valve by using liquid oxygen kerosene of the first-stage arrow 1; or a separate auxiliary medium tank may be provided at the recovered power engine 661.
Because the recovery power device 66 is positioned at the upper part of the carrier rocket, the pull recovery is realized, the recovery power is positioned above and does not need to be arranged in the middle of the bottom of the first-stage rocket body 1, the stable control and the accurate landing in the rocket recovery process are particularly facilitated, meanwhile, the matching and the layout of the first-stage power engine 11 (first-stage engine) are also particularly facilitated, the configuration quantity of the engines can be reduced, and the matching cost is reduced. In addition, the pull type recovery rocket has the advantages that the first-stage rocket body 1 does not work in the recovery process, the simplified design of the launching and recovery device is facilitated, the construction cost is reduced, and the rocket is safer to launch and recover. And the pull type recovery rocket can be adjusted by recovering power to replace the function of the grid wings, so that the posture adjustment and the stability of the rocket are controlled.
Specifically, the arrangement mode of the power recovery device is to ensure that the thrust vector action point of the power recovery device is always above the mass center (the mass center position is changed in the rocket flying process), so as to form tension on the rocket. Two or three, four, five, six or eight power recovery devices can be circumferentially and uniformly (symmetrically) arranged according to the optimized configuration and conditions; in consideration of the symmetry and the convenience of control thereof, and the need for adjusting the attitude, it is preferable to adopt a scheme of three or four power recovery devices uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction as shown in fig. 4A and 4B.
On the other hand, the power recovery device can be arranged at different height positions, such as being directly connected to the middle upper part of the rocket; or the outer side surface of the first-stage arrow body or the conical top sleeve cover is fixedly provided with a cross beam, and the power recovery device is connected with the cross beam; for another example, the power recovery device is connected to the outer side surface of the melon petal part; and if the top end of the melon petal part extends upwards to be provided with one or more conical top columns, and the power recovery device is connected with the conical top columns.
The installation of the power recovery device 66 and the power recovery engine 661 thereof, and the outer walls of the first-stage arrow body 1 and the conical top sleeve cover 6 need to control a certain safety distance, or the thrust line of the engine spray pipe 662 keeps a certain relative angle (preferably about 30 degrees) with the central line of the arrow body, or the safety distance and angle are set simultaneously (the distance or angle can be adjusted by a mechanism), so that the effective utilization of the engine thrust can be kept, the flame heat energy sprayed by the power recovery engine 661 can be prevented from ablating the first-stage arrow body 1 or the conical top sleeve cover 6, and the safety of the first-stage arrow body 1 or the conical top sleeve cover 6 is ensured. The above-mentioned safety distance can be achieved by the design of the engine mount 664 or by providing a length of the cross beam.
In one embodiment, the thrust resultant force of the recovery power engine 661 is set in combination with the mass of the recovery rocket, generally set between 10% and 20% of the primary power engine 11; preferably, the engine thrust of the primary power engine 11 is 100t, and the two recovered power engines 661 can select a single engine of about 10 t; 3. the four recovered power engines 661 can be selected as a single engine of about 5 t. The thrust of the recovery power engine 661 can be adjusted within 50% of the rated thrust.
For the separation of the load 30 from the rocket, since the load 30 is in the cone top shroud 6, the separation needs to provide a separation force to the load 30 or the first stage rocket body 1 to generate a relative acceleration and a relative velocity of the load 30 or the first stage rocket body 1, and further to pull the distance between the load 30 and the rocket. Utility model provides this separation force here for three kinds of schemes:
1. the power recovery engine upward swing scheme is as follows: in the separation process of the suborbital rocket load, a recovery power engine and an engine nozzle are swung to the outward oblique upper side, the recovery power engine is started to provide reverse separation force, and an assisted load (preferably a secondary rocket) is separated from a primary rocket body; after separation, the power recovery engine and the engine nozzle are swung to the outward inclined lower side for returning.
2. Installing a reverse rocket scheme: the reverse-thrust rockets (preferably two) are symmetrically arranged at the outer edge of the rocket body or the cone top sleeve cover at the first stage of the rocket, and the fire spraying direction of the reverse-thrust rockets is upward or outward obliquely upward.

3. Pneumatic separation scheme: the rocket is assisted by high-pressure gas or fuel gas and the like through the adjustment of the discharge direction of the high-pressure gas or fuel gas, and the rocket is separated from the load or the posture of the rocket is controlled.
The arrangement scheme of the power recovery device can be roughly divided into that a power recovery engine and an engine jet pipe are arranged in a manner of circumferential swinging, radial swinging and circumferential and radial bidirectional swinging relative to a carrier rocket, and the posture of the rocket is controlled by swinging; and the direct fixed connection cannot swing; the following examples are given in detail.

The rocket separating force is provided by two reverse thrusting rockets symmetrically arranged on the outer edge of the bottom of the first-stage rocket body. (1) power thrust recovery function: the power recovery engine is started and provides forward thrust in the rocket ascending process, so that the rocket is accelerated to ascend. In the rocket recovery process, the recovery power engine is started to provide reverse thrust, and the rocket decelerates and descends.

Four unidirectional swinging (circumferential) power recovery engines are uniformly and circumferentially arranged to provide rocket boosting, power recovery and attitude control thrust; the rocket separating force is provided by two reverse thrusting rockets symmetrically arranged on the outer edge of the bottom of the first-stage rocket body. The term "circumferential direction" refers to a direction perpendicular to the plane of the drawing, which is relative to the carrier rocket which is generally cylindrical, and means that the engine nozzle can rotate around the swing mechanism as an axis, see fig. 2B. The working mechanism is as follows: (1) power thrust recovery function: the power recovery engine is started and provides forward thrust in the rocket ascending process, so that the rocket is accelerated to ascend. In the rocket recovery process, the recovery power engine is started to provide reverse thrust, and the rocket decelerates and descends. (2) the power recovery attitude control function: two symmetrical recovery power engines deflect in the same direction to control the pitching attitude of the rocket, and the other two recovery power engines deflect in the same direction to control the yawing attitude of the rocket; the two symmetrical power recovery engines deflect in different directions to control the rolling attitude of the rocket.

The term "bidirectional" refers to both "circumferential" and "radial" rotation. The working mechanism is as follows: (1) power thrust recovery function: the power recovery engine is started and provides forward thrust in the rocket ascending process, so that the rocket is accelerated to ascend. In the rocket recovery process, the recovery power engine is started to provide reverse thrust, and the rocket decelerates and descends. (2) the power recovery attitude control function: recovering the homodromous deflection of the power engine to control the pitching and yawing postures, and controlling the rolling posture by the heterodromous deflection; the recovered power engine which forms an included angle (adjustable angle) of 30 degrees with the first-stage arrow body controls the yaw attitude simultaneously or independently with the deflection of the recovered power engine through thrust adjustment.
