APPARATUS FOR CONNECTING THE HULLS OF COMPARTMENTS OF AN AERIAL VEHICLE Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC B64G1/64 

FIELD: aviation.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of general mechanical engineering, namely, to systems for detachable connection of the hulls of compartments of an aerial vehicle. Apparatus comprises a docking compartment and a detachable compartment butt-connected using two or more cylindrical segments with symmetrical inner conical surfaces coupled with the outer surface of the compartment frames. The frame of the docking compartment comprises an annular ledge with holes for threaded connections securing the docking point, and the axes thereof extend perpendicular to the axes of the hulls of the compartments. The threaded connections securing the docking point are made in the form of pyrotechnic fasteners with an electric detonator. The detachable compartment is made with an annular ledge extending onto the annular ledge of the docking compartment higher in diameter, said ledge being made flat in the area of installation of the pyrotechnic fasteners. The pyrotechnic fasteners are installed into the holes of the annular ledges from inside the compartments, and each cylindrical segment is made with three symmetrically positioned threaded holes, wherein a pyrotechnic fastener is installed in the central threaded hole, and the apparatus is equipped with curved plates. One part of the plates is secured in the threaded holes of the segments, positioned symmetrically relative to the site of installation of the pyrotechnic fastener, and the second part is secured on the detachable compartment.

EFFECT: increase in the reliability and improvement of the operational characteristics of the apparatus.
