PILOT TRAINING SIMULATOR Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC G09B9/05 G09B5/14 

FIELD: transportation; aviation.

SUBSTANCE: pilot training simulator comprises a centrifuge, a 3D system of virtual information transfer and display, a system of motion parameters control, coordination and positioning of working cabins, a system of centrifuge driving, motion parameters control and automatic stop, working cabins of pilot trainers and a central dispatcher's station, which contains a network server, a centrifuge start and stop button. Trainers' cabins are equipped with a monitor for video surveillance of the pilot, two-way radio communication with the team pilot and the dispatcher, a monitor of operating environment in the highway. The mechanical centrifuge is rigidly installed on a foundation, comprises an electric motor with a gear and at least four booms located on a rotary part. On each boom there is a movable platform, to which a fireball pilot cabin is fixed at the bottom, and a software-controlled retractable wheel located at the base of the centrifuge foundation. In the foundation there is a bottom flange with inner and outer diameter, on the motor gear there is a conical gear transferring rotation to the vertical shaft of the centrifuge. The centrifuge drive comprises a 3-phase electric motor, the drive of cabin rotation also includes electric motors energized from the base of the centrifuge via trolley ducts. The system of motion parameters, coordination and positioning of working cabins comprises a rotation control and electric motor unit, an electric motor of cabin movement along the beam of the "X" centrifuge, motors of cabin rotation around axis "Y" and "X1", sensors of sliding and overload, located in the pilot's cabin. The system of centrifuge driving, motion parameters control and automatic stop comprises an electric motor and a gear of centrifuge electric motor, located on the unit of the centrifuge foundation. The system also comprises a unit of rotation control and electric motor control, a system of sensors of angular speeds located on movable and fixed parts of the centrifuge, and sensors of sliding and overloads located in each pilot's cabin.

EFFECT: increased efficiency of user preparation as a result of achieving the same physical feelings and loads as under real operation conditions.
