Detailed Description

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the specific embodiments of the present disclosure without departing from the scope or spirit of the disclosure. Other embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art from consideration of the specification. The specification and examples are exemplary only.

The invention provides a drag slow release device of a carrier rocket, which is shown as a using state diagram in figure 1. And the plurality of the restraining and slow-releasing devices are arranged on the launching platform 7 and are used for restraining and pressing the tail end 8 of the rocket. The drag slow release device is controlled by the telescopic rod 1 to drag or release the rocket tail end 8. Specifically, each of the drag slow-release devices is provided with a telescopic rod 1 correspondingly to drive the drag slow-release devices to move.

In the embodiment shown in the figure, a plurality of drag-release devices are uniformly distributed around the rocket tail 8 for applying a uniform drag force to the rocket tail 8. In order to ensure the stable state of the rocket, the drag force of the tail end of the rocket needs to be kept uniform, so that a plurality of drag slow-release devices need to be uniformly arranged around the tail end 8 of the rocket, and the drag force in a plurality of directions of the tail end of the rocket is ensured.

As shown in fig. 2, a structure of the drag reduction device includes: telescopic link 1, depression bar 2 and rocking arm 3. Wherein, one end of the rotating arm 3 is movably connected on the launching platform 7 through the first support 4. Preferably, the swivel arm 3 is connected to the first support 4 by a pin or bolt.

The other end of the rotating arm 3 is provided with a U-shaped groove, and the pressure rod 2 is movably connected in the U-shaped groove. Preferably, the pressure lever 2 is connected with the rotating arm 3 through a bolt or a bolt.

One end of the pressure lever 2 is movably connected with one end of a telescopic rod 1 arranged on the launching platform 7, and the other end of the pressure lever 2 is connected with the rocket tail end 8 and is used for applying a restraining force to the rocket tail end 8 under the action of a force application of the telescopic rod 1. Specifically, the compression rod 2 exerts a traction force on the rocket tail end 8 under the action of the pushing force of the telescopic rod 1, and under the action of the pulling force of the telescopic rod 1, the traction force of the compression rod 2 on the rocket tail end 8 is gradually reduced until the compression rod is separated from the rocket tail end 8, and the rocket tail end 8 is released.

The other end of the telescopic rod 1 is movably connected to the launching platform 7 through a second support 5, and the second support 5 is used for providing support for the telescopic rod 1. Preferably, the telescopic rod 1 is connected with the second support 5 through a bolt or a bolt. In the embodiment of the invention, in order to ensure that the telescopic rod 1 provides stable drag force, at least one telescopic rod 1 is arranged on the drag slow-release device. Preferably, the telescopic rod 1 is a hydraulic rod or an electric rod, and remote control and automatic control of the telescopic rod 1 can be realized. As shown in fig. 3, during the telescopic movement of the telescopic rod 1, the rotating arm 3 swings in the limited direction of the first support 4, and the compression bar 2 ascends or descends under the limit of the rotating arm 3 and the driving of the telescopic rod 1.

In the specific embodiment of the invention, as shown in fig. 2, a bearing shaft 9 is arranged at the tail end 8 of the rocket, and the pressure lever 2 is connected with the bearing shaft 9 and used for applying an acting force to the bearing shaft 9 through the pressure lever 2 and further applying a restraining force to the tail end 8 of the rocket. The bearing shaft 9 can rotate relative to the rocket tail end 8, and is used for realizing rolling contact between the pressure rod 2 and the bearing shaft 9, and reducing the friction force when the pressure rod 2 and the bearing shaft 9 move mutually, so that the relative motion of the pressure rod 2 and the bearing shaft 9 is more flexible.

In the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, one end of the pressing rod 2 contacting the bearing shaft 9 is a curved end, and the concave side of the curved end is on the lower side of the pressing rod 2, i.e. the concave side is the side of the pressing rod 2 facing the first support 4. When the pressure lever 2 applies a traction force to the bearing shaft 9, the bearing shaft 9 is arranged at the lower part of the pressure lever 2, namely the bearing shaft 9 is contacted with the curve end of the pressure lever 2, and the pressure lever 2 is used for keeping applying the traction force to the bearing shaft 9 in the process that the traction slow release device releases the rocket. The concave side of the curve end of the pressure lever 2 is tangent to the surface of the bearing shaft 9, and the force is transmitted in a contact manner in a line contact manner, so that the downward force is applied to the tail end of the rocket to restrain the motion of the rocket. In addition, the friction force is smaller in a line contact mode compared with a surface contact mode, when the rocket is lifted off, the relative movement between the bearing shaft 9 and the pressure rod 2 is smoother, the blocking condition is avoided, the pulling force of each direction on the tail end of the rocket is more uniform when the rocket is lifted off, and the stability of the rocket lifting process is ensured. Before the rocket is not lifted off, the restraining force applied to the bearing shaft 9 by the concave side of the curve end of the compression rod 2 comprises a horizontal force and a vertical force. Wherein the horizontal force is used to constrain the takeoff drift motion of the rocket launch. The vertical force is used for pressing the tail of the rocket.

In addition, the pressure lever 2 has a fixed maximum raising height, and the bearing shaft 9 is gradually separated from the pressure lever 2 in the raising process of the pressure lever 2. That is, in the process of lifting the rocket to the preset height, the drag force exerted by the pressure rod 2 on the bearing shaft 9 is gradually reduced to zero. In the process, the drag force changes in a curve, so that the rocket releasing process is more stable.

In the embodiment of the invention, the drag reduction device is also provided with a force sensor 6. The force sensor 6 is arranged on the telescopic rod 1 and used for detecting the axial force of the telescopic rod 1. Through the axial atress condition that detects telescopic link 1, and then learn the application of force size of depression bar 2 to bearing axle 9, because the effect of force is mutual, consequently can obtain the size of the application of force of bearing axle 9 to depression bar 2.

The force sensor 6 is connected with the control end through a circuit, axial force data of the telescopic rod 1 are fed back to the control end, and the control end further controls the process that the pressure rod 2 restrains and slowly releases the bearing shaft 9 according to the magnitude of the axial force fed back in real time.

Specifically, when the difference between the rocket thrust and the rocket gravity is greater than or equal to the preset drag force of the drag slow-release device, the force sensor 6 transmits the detected axial force data to the controller, and the controller controls the telescopic rod 1 to gradually retract. The compression bar 2 rotates under the driving of the telescopic bar 1 and gradually raises under the limit of the rotating arm 3, and in the process of raising the compression bar 2, the traction force applied by the compression bar 2 to the bearing shaft 9 is gradually reduced until the traction force is zero. In the actual operation process, at least two or even a plurality of the drag and slow release devices are usually arranged at the tail end of the rocket, and when the difference between the thrust of the rocket and the gravity of the rocket is greater than or equal to the sum of the preset drag forces of the plurality of the drag and slow release devices, the force sensor 6 transmits the detected axial force data to the controller, and the controller controls the telescopic rod 1 to gradually retract. And then the compression bar 2 rotates under the driving of the telescopic rod 1 and gradually raises under the limit of the rotating arm 3, and in the raising process of the compression bar 2, the traction force applied by the compression bar 2 to the bearing shaft 9 is gradually reduced until the traction force is zero.

When the drag force of the pressure lever 2 to the bearing shaft 9 is zero, the pressure lever 2 is separated from the bearing shaft 9, and the tail end of the rocket is released. In the releasing process, the plurality of the drag slow-release devices are synchronously carried out under the control of the controller, so that the condition that the tail end of the rocket is stressed unevenly in the process of lifting the rocket is avoided as much as possible. In addition, the rocket is likely to shake under the influence of factors such as wind power before takeoff, the axial force detected by the force sensors 6 on the respective drag slow-release devices is different due to the rocket shaking, and in order to prevent misjudgment, the difference between the rocket thrust and the rocket gravity needs to be set to be slightly larger than the sum of the preset drag forces of the multiple drag slow-release devices, so that the safety and the reliability of the rocket launching process can be ensured.

Fig. 4 shows different state diagrams of the holdback sustained release device during the rocket ascending process. Before the rocket is lifted off, the drag slow-release devices are in a state, and the difference between the lifting force of the rocket and the gravity of the rocket is smaller than the sum of the preset drag forces of the multiple drag slow-release devices on the bearing shaft 9. When the difference between the lifting force of the rocket and the gravity of the rocket is larger than or equal to the sum of the preset traction force of the plurality of traction slow-release devices on the bearing shaft 9, the control end controls the telescopic rod 1 to gradually retract, and the compression rod 2 gradually performs upward movement under the limiting of the rotating arm 3, the thrust action of the bearing shaft 9 and the thrust action of the telescopic rod 1. In the lifting process, the thrust of the rocket is gradually increased, and the height of the rocket is gradually increased. When the motion of the drag slow release device reaches the position b in fig. 4, the bearing shaft 9 moves to the tail end of the pressure lever 2, and the drag force applied to the bearing shaft 9 by the pressure lever 2 is gradually reduced to zero in the process from a to b. Then the compression bar 2 is raised continuously in the retracting process of the expansion bar 1 to reach the state c, the bearing shaft 9 is separated from the compression bar 2 in the process from b to c, the rocket reaches the full thrust state in the process, and the rocket rises to finish the rocket lifting.

The invention also provides a launching platform of the carrier rocket, and the launching platform is provided with at least two of the restraining slow-release devices for restraining and fixing the tail of the rocket.

In an embodiment of the invention, as shown in fig. 5, when the rocket tail end has a main body, 4 holddown sustained-release devices are uniformly distributed around the rocket tail end, and the angle between every two holddown sustained-release devices is 90 degrees by taking the rocket main body as the center, so that the sustained-release force applied to the rocket tail end in each direction is uniform, and the probability of rocket inclination is greatly reduced.

In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 6, when the rocket tail has three bodies, and the three bodies are fixedly connected side by side, a plurality of the containment slow release devices are respectively arranged at the axis of each body. Namely, the middle body is fixedly connected with two drag slow-release devices on the vertical axis, the rocket bodies on the two sides are respectively provided with two drag slow-release devices on the vertical axis, and the horizontal axis is provided with one drag slow-release device. The distribution ensures that the slow release force applied to the tail end of the rocket in all directions is uniform, and greatly reduces the probability of inclination of the rocket.

In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 7, when the rocket tail end has five bodies, one body is disposed in the middle, and the other four bodies are respectively located in the horizontal and vertical axial directions of the middle body, i.e. located around the middle body, and are distributed in 90 degrees between every two bodies and are all fixedly connected with the middle body. The embodiment is provided with 4 restraining and slow-releasing devices, and the 4 restraining and slow-releasing devices are respectively arranged at the outer sides of the four surrounding main bodies, so that the plurality of restraining and slow-releasing devices are ensured to apply uniform restraining force to the surrounding main bodies.

The foregoing is merely an illustrative embodiment of the present invention, and any equivalent changes and modifications made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and principle of the present invention should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
