AIRCRAFT TAKE-OFF ACCELERATOR Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC B64F1/06 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: accelerator comprises accelerating device representing operating cylinder 1, accommodating piston 4 with rod 5, braking device 8 and compressed gas chamber 7. Bracket 14 is rigidly fixed outside cylinder 1 to support starting position retainer representing crank 15. Rod part 5 extending beyond cylinder 1 accommodates pylon 10. Atop upper part of pylon 10 accommodated is the device to place aircraft furnished with electromechanical system intended for separation of aircraft from aforesaid pylon and representing acceleration pickup 11 connected, via controller 12, with electric drive 13. Outside power cylinder, rotary front supports 20 with retainers 24 and rear support 21 are arranged. To start the aircraft, bell crank handle is lifted. Compressed gas pushes piston 4 with rod 5 from cylinder till piston contact with braking device 8. Electric signal from acceleration pickup 11 comes to controller 12, for its microprocessor to generate signal to electric drive to release aircraft from pylon 10.

EFFECT: higher reliability, reduced sizes.
