Description

The invention relates to aviation.

The famous kite (Patent RU 2388654 C1 dated 10/01/2008), containing a dome, dome lines, handles, control lines connected to the dome lines and handles, chikenlup, power lines connected to the handles and dome lines.

The disadvantage of this invention is the high danger of piloting the kite under high wind loads, because in case of an emergency situation, the pilot must unhook the cable attachment to the pilot equipment to release the kite, which significantly reduces the safety of the pilot, is not always possible and may cause significant injury.

Closest to the claimed device is a kite with a bar as a control tool (Patent RU 2388655 C1 dated 10/01/2008), containing a dome, bar, center line, dome lines, a loop (chicken-loop), control lines connected to the dome lines, power line connected to the central line.

The disadvantage of this invention is the high danger of piloting the kite under high wind loads, because in case of an emergency situation, the pilot must unhook the cable attachment to the pilot equipment to release the kite, which significantly reduces the safety of the pilot, is not always possible and may cause significant injury.

The problem that the claimed device is intended to solve is to increase the pilot's safety, reduce the risk of injury and reduce the risks of creating unacceptable efforts on the pilot while piloting the kite.

The technical result, the achievement of which the claimed device is directed, is to ensure that the loads applied to the pilot are limited to increase safety when piloting a kite.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that a kite with a strap as a control means, comprising a strap, dome, dome slings connected to the dome, central slings, control slings connected to the dome slings on one side and a slat on the other, power slings connected to the central a sling and a domed sling, chikenlup, connected to the central sling, is additionally equipped with an automatic load limiting device, which includes a ring, a cup, made bottom up, a connecting element, for connection to chiklenupu, elastic element connected to the bottom of the glass, while the second end of the elastic element is connected with the ring, pin, with the possibility of exit from the glass when a safe force is exceeded, associated with the ring, on which between the elastic element and the pin is attached to the cable attachment the pilot.

The invention is illustrated in FIG. 1 - FIG. 2:

FIG. 1 - kite.

FIG. 2 - automatic device to limit the load.

Here: 1 - the dome;

2 - dome lines;

3 - control lines;

4 - power lines;

5 - central line;

6 - bar;

7 - chikenlup;

8 - automatic device to limit the load;

9 - connecting element;

10 - a glass;

11 - hairpin;

12 - elastic element;

13 - ring;

14 - cable attachment to the pilot's equipment.

The kite contains a bar (6), a dome (1), dome lines (2) connected to the dome (1), a central line (5), control lines (3) connected to the dome lines (2) on one side and a bar ( 6) on the other, power lines (4), connected to the central line (5) and dome lines (2), chikenlup (7), connected to the center line (5), an automatic load limiting device (8), which includes a ring ( 13), a cup (10), made bottom from above, a connecting element (9), for attaching to chikenlupu (7), an elastic element (12) connected to the bottom of a stack on (10), while the second end of the elastic element (12) is connected with the ring (13), the stud (11), with the possibility of escaping from the glass (10) when the safe force is exceeded, associated with the ring (13), on which between the elastic element (12) and pin (11) placed the cable attachment to the pilot equipment (14).

The operation of the device is as follows. When piloting the kite, the aerodynamic force acts on the dome (1), which is transmitted through the dome lines (2) and power lines (4) to the central line (5). The pilot of the kite is controlled by deflecting the bar (6) connected via control lines (3) to the dome lines (2) and the dome (1). In order to automate the disconnection of the connection between the kite and the equipment, with possibly unexpected significant efforts to equip the pilot, due to the aerodynamic force, an automatic load limiting device (8) was added, automatically disconnecting the connection between the kite and the pilot when safe forces were exceeded. The automatic load limiting device (8) is connected to chikenlup (7) by means of a connecting element (9) on one side and the equipment of the pilot on the other. When the safety force applied to the pilot's equipment is exceeded, the following occurs: the elastic element (12) is stretched, and the stud (11) exits the glass (10) and releases from the structure consisting of the ring (13) and the stud (11), the cable attachment to the pilot's gear (14), connected to the pilot's gear. This opens the power link between the kite and the pilot, ensuring automatic removal of dangerous forces from the pilot.

The force of operation of the automatic device for limiting the load depends on the wind conditions of operation, the type of kite used, its surface area and the skills of the pilot, and requires the ability to quickly change the force of operation. The operative change of the force of operation of an automatic device for limiting the load is possible by replacing the elastic element with another one that is pre-calibrated with a certain force. The proposed implementation of an automatic load limiting device allows the pilot to have a set of several elastic elements and make their prompt replacement depending on the conditions of use.

The claimed device significantly improves safety and prevents injuries to the pilot through the use of an automatic device to limit the load, by disconnecting the pilot equipment and the kite when a safe force is exceeded.
