Description

 The invention relates to the field of meeting the vital needs of a person, it can mainly be used for entertainment, as well as for training athletes and pilots.

 The level of the claimed invention is known from a device containing a vertical strut fixed motionless at the base, a beam mounted on a ball bearing of a vertical strut, at the free end of which is located with the ability to move along the roll and pitch, as well as around the vertical axis of the model aircraft ) with governing bodies and a barrel-counterweight installed at the opposite end of the beam (Appendix to "Young Technician", 1988, 8, p. 4-7).

 A known device is used to perform a movement simulating an aircraft flight. The model of the aircraft mounted on the rocker can rise to a height of five meters, make movement around a fixed vertical strut and its own vertical axis, simulate roll and dive (swaying around the horizontal axis). Take-off of the aircraft model is carried out under the influence of the lifting force resulting from the airflow running on the model, therefore, the known device can only be used in a steady, steady wind, the speed of which should not exceed 10 m / s, while the aircraft model moves only in the horizontal plane .

 Thus, one of the disadvantages of the known device is the limited possibility of its use.

 Another disadvantage of the known device is the increased danger that occurs when performing a "flight". As follows from a well-known source of information, "flights" are made only with insurance, which is carried out by two insurers by means of strong nylon ropes tied to both ends of the beam.

 The closest analogue of the claimed invention is a simulator, consisting of a vertical base mounted on a fixed platform mounted on it with the ability to make movements around the vertical axis of the rod, at one end of which is installed with the ability to move along the roll and pitch of the aircraft model, equipped with controls and mover, and at the opposite end of the bar is installed a counterweight-balancer with the ability to make movement along the bar (see French patent 2623318, cl. G 09 B 9/08, 1989).

 The technical result of the invention is to expand the functionality of the device and increase the safety of "flights".

 The specified technical result is achieved by the fact that the known simulator, consisting of a vertical base mounted on a fixed platform, mounted on it with the ability to make movements around the vertical axis of the rod, at one end of which is installed with the ability to move along the roll and pitch, an aircraft model equipped with bodies control and propulsion, and at the opposite end of the rod mounted counterweight balancer with the ability to make movement along the rod, according to the invention d it is fully equipped with shock absorbers and an automatic balancing system for the model of the aircraft, the vertical base is mounted on a fixed platform with the ability to rotate around its own axis, the model of the aircraft is mounted on a vertical rack of the rod and has the ability to move around its own vertical axis, the vertical rack is rigidly connected through the movable horizontal axis with horizontal and vertical brackets communicating through rods, respectively but with fixed horizontal and vertical brackets rigidly connected to the vertical base through a fixed horizontal axis, which provide the rod with the ability to move around the vertical base along a spherical path, and the model of the aircraft - a vertical position at any point on the spherical path of the rod. The layout of the aircraft can be equipped with several propulsion. The system for balancing the layout of the aircraft may consist of pressure sensors installed in the lower part of the layout of the aircraft, and a device for automatically moving the counterweight-balancer. Propellers can use propellers.

The invention is illustrated by drawings, where:
in FIG. 1 is a general view of the device from above;
in FIG. 2 is a view of the device in arrow A;
in FIG. 3 - view of the device in arrow B;
in FIG. 4 is a view of the device in arrow B;
in FIG. 5 is a view of the device in a position to execute movement along a spherical path.

The numbers in the figures indicate the following positions:
1 - fixed platform
2 - vertical base
3 - rod
4 - balancer-counterweight,
5 - shock absorbers,
6 - top link
7 - a vertical rack on which the layout of the aircraft,
8 - the layout of the aircraft,
9 - fixed vertical bracket mounted on a vertical base,
10 - fixed horizontal axis,
11 - movable horizontal axis to maintain a vertical rack,
12 - fixed horizontal bracket mounted on a vertical base,
13 - lower thrust
14 - movable horizontal bracket mounted on a vertical rack,
15 - movable vertical bracket mounted on a vertical and a rack.

 The work of the attraction simulator is carried out under the control of the operator as follows.

 Before the start of the "flight", the operator seats the "pilot" in a seat located in the layout of the aircraft, fastens it with seat belts.

 Take-off of the aircraft model takes place only by the action of the lifting force created by the propulsion device, for example, a rotor mounted on the aircraft model. The rotation of the aircraft model (8) around its own axis is carried out using the tail rotor. The operation of the screws is carried out by, for example, an electric motor, the power of which is supplied from the operator's control panel. Thus, the takeoff of the aircraft model and the subsequent "flight" can be carried out under any weather conditions to a height of 5-10 meters. Gaining height, the aircraft model raises the bar (3), on which it is mounted on a vertical strut (7). The assembly of the rod to the base has an unlimited degree of freedom, which ensures the movement of the rod in a vertical plane along a spherical path. To ensure a constant vertical position of the aircraft mockup at any point of the spherical trajectory, a vertical strut (7) is provided, rigidly connected through a movable horizontal axis (11) with movable horizontal (14) and vertical (15) brackets communicating via rods (6) and (13 ) with fixed horizontal (12) and vertical (13) brackets rigidly connected to the vertical base (2) through the fixed horizontal axis (10).

 The claimed mutual arrangement of the brackets 9 and 12, as well as 14 and 15 in different directions, i.e., at an angle of 90 degrees relative to each other, allows the model of the aircraft mounted on the boom to safely pass the highest point of the spherical path. (When the above brackets are located relative to each other in one direction, a situation is possible when, when the model of the aircraft passes the top point of the spherical path, not rod (3), but rods (6) and (13) will move forward, which will lead to the deflection of the vertical strut ( 7) and, consequently, the mock up of the aircraft model, as well as jamming and possible damage to the rods).

 To reduce the amount of stop of the carrier mover, a counterweight is installed (4), so that the imbalance value is shifted towards the layout of the aircraft and has a minimum value corresponding to the stop of the carrier mover and is constant.

 To ensure a given imbalance when flying with pilots of different weights, an attraction simulator provides an automatic balancing system consisting of a counterweight balancer (4) and a pressure sensor (not shown) installed in the lower part of the aircraft layout and in contact with the ground. When the pilot lands in the model of the aircraft, the weight of the pilot begins to influence the pressure sensor, the imbalance changes with respect to the set value. When the load on the pressure sensor changes, the balancer-balancer moves along the rod, for example, by means of an electric drive, to the value of the specified imbalance.

 The claimed attraction simulator allows in any weather conditions to perform both sports flights and entertaining skating in safety conditions with full simulations of real air flights.
