Description

The invention relates to aircraft and rocket technology, to unmanned aerial vehicles and devices for their launch.

A known aircraft with a starting propulsion system, located in a transport and launch container (see utility model patent No. 183575 dated 09/26/2018), adopted as a prototype, comprising a housing with power sheathing, power frames attached to the sheathing, a starting propulsion an installation fixed to the aircraft body by a fastening and fixing device, while the starting propulsion system is located in front of the aircraft body and contains several nozzles located on its side the surface of the aircraft inclined to the longitudinal axis of the hull, to the starting propulsion system under its nozzles, a protective fairing is attached to the front part of the aircraft’s hull, made of heat-resistant material with a heat-protective coating, in the transport-launch container there is a device for fixing the aircraft in it, made in the form of adjustable clamps, which also perform the function of guide elements, while on the aircraft body along the entire length there are tape overlays located under the fix satorium. The starting propulsion system is also attached to the transport and launch container, the mounting and unlocking device for securing the starting propulsion system consists of a bursting pyrobolt of the locking of the starting propulsion system and the transport and launch container of the spring-loaded lever for attaching the aircraft body in the transport and launch container, a groove in the housing for the lever fastenings with a wedge insert, an adjustable emphasis for the fastening lever with a stop device consisting of a housing fixed on and the housing of the starting propulsion system, and the bracket for holding the adjustable stop, while the housing and the bracket of the thrust device are connected by a bursting pyro bolt. The groove in the aircraft body for the attachment lever is provided with a lockable lid, and the protective shield is made power and is also the power frame for attaching the launch propulsion system to the transport and launch container.

The common essential features of the prototype, which coincide with the proposed technical solution, are as follows: an aircraft placed in a transport and launch container, a device for fixing the aircraft in it in the form of clamps and guiding elements, there is a starting propulsion system.

The peculiarity of this aircraft is the presence in the transport and launch container of only one aircraft, the presence of a power protective shield, which leads to an increase in the mass of the structure, the clamps that perform the function of the guiding elements rely directly on the body of the aircraft, which leads to the need to thicken the skin of the aircraft and, as a result, to an increase in the mass of the structure, as well as to a decrease in the reliability of the operation of the aircraft withdrawal system from the container.

Distinctive features of the proposed device from the prototype is that in the transport and launch container there is a block of several aircraft (for example, three) and the transport and launch container is detachable from the carrier, the launch propulsion system is made in the form of a launch engine fixed to a power farm, located at the rear of the aircraft unit, the aircraft is fixed to the unit using rods pivotally attached to the power truss on the outer surface of the rods with sliders are used, and on the inner surface of the rods there are attachment points for aircraft. At the same time, the sliders enter the guides on the transport and launch container and are fixed with pyro fixators, and the attachment points for the aircraft on the rods are fixed with the counterparts of the nodes on the aircraft with pyro fixators. On the front of the rods there are opening brake flaps, which have visors in the front of the form in the form of bent parts of the flaps. The aircraft unit has an aircraft dilution unit located in the front of the unit and connected, for example, by a rope to a power farm.

Due to the presence of these distinctive features in combination with the known, the following technical result is achieved - increasing the reliability and efficiency of the use of the aircraft unit, and reducing the mass of the structure as a whole.

The proposed technical solution can find application in military equipment for unmanned aerial vehicles with accelerating detachable compartments mounted on various types of carriers.

The composition of a block of three aircraft with a starting engine in a transport and launch container is shown in FIG. 1 ... 6.

In FIG. 1 presents a block of three aircraft pos. 1 with folded wings and plumage, power farm pos. 2, barbells pos. 3 and the starting engine pos. 4. The unit is located in the transport and launch container pos. 5, with resettable fairing pos. 6 and the back cover pos. 7.

In FIG. 2 shows a transverse section aa along the block of aircraft pos. 1 in the transport and launch container pos. 5. The cross section shows the sliders pos. 8 on the transport and launch container, sliders pos. 9 on aircraft, slide pos. 10 on the bar pos. 3, guides for them pos. 11 in the container, pyrofixators pos. 12 for sliders pos. 9 on aircraft and pyrofixators pos. 13 for sliders pos. 10 on the rods, the aircraft breeding unit pos. 14.

In FIG. 3 presents a block of three aircraft pos. 1 after exiting the transport and launch container in axonometric projection with the starting engine pos. 4, with the site for the breeding of aircraft pos. 14 aircraft pos. 1, brake flaps pos. 15 and front and rear sliders pos. 10 on the bar pos. 3.

In FIG. 4 shows the articulation of the power farm pos. 2. with a bar pos. 3.

In FIG. 5 shows the brake flap pos. 15 with a visor pos. 16, front slider pos. 10 and pyrofixator pos. 12 rod mounts pos. 3 and aircraft pos. 1.

In FIG. 6 shows the breeding unit pos. 14 aircraft pos. 1 and the rope pos. 17 communication site breeding with a power plate pos. 2.

The device operates as follows.

In the initial state, three aircraft are fixed in the block pos. 1 using the rods pos. 3 and sliders pos. 9, fixed to the rods with pyrofixators pos. 12. Rods pos. 3 sliders pos. 10 are included in the guides pos. 11 on the transport and launch container pos. 5 and are fixed to it with pyrofixators pos. 13. Rods pos. 3 are attached by swivel joints to the power truss pos. 2, to which the starting motor pos. 4. The aircraft block with the starting engine in the transport and launch container is placed in the launch device of the carrier and is attached to it using the sliders pos. 8.

When using this system, the aircraft block with the starting engine in the transport and launch container is first ejected from the carrier launch device. Then the starting engine is turned on, pyro-fixators pos. 13 and the block of aircraft with rods pos. 3, the power farm pos. 2 and the starting engine pos. 4 leaves the transport and launch container pos. 5 (see FIG. 2 and FIG. 3).

After the aircraft block leaves the transport and launch container, the pyrofixers pos. 12, bar pos. 3 are exempted from mounting with sliders pos. 9 aircraft. As the unit accelerates, the force of aerodynamic drag (high-pressure head) increases, acting on the visors pos. 16 brake flaps pos. 15, under the influence of this force, the brake flaps open. The force of aerodynamic drag increases, which leads to the rotation of the rods pos. 3 relative to the axis of the hinge assembly of the rods to the power truss pos. 2. Next, the descent of the “rod - power farm - starting engine" system from the aircraft unit takes place. In the process of this descent, the longitudinal movement receives the breeding unit poses. 14, connected by a rope pos. 17 (see Fig. 6) with a power farm pos. 2. There is a fan turn of the aircraft, which ensures the safe unfolding of wings and plumage and the beginning of an autonomous flight of aircraft.
