    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system for launching and capturing a vertical take-off and landing vehicle (VTOL). SOLUTION: A VTOL vehicle 101 comprises a thruster 104 and a duct 106 structured to direct air flow generated by the thruster, and this system 102 includes a capture plate 120 and an extension 122. The capture plate is structured to alter the air flow and generate the force for attracting the duct to the capture plate. The extension is coupled to the capture plate, and is structured to, at least, facilitate holding the VTOL vehicle against the capture plate. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT

    Abstract: A container is used to launch a small aircraft, such as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), from a host aircraft. The container protects the UAV from stresses during the initial ejection from a launcher that is part of the host aircraft. The initial stresses may be due to turbulence in the vicinity of the host aircraft, high airspeed, and/or tumbling that may result from the ejection from the host aircraft moving at a high airspeed. The container may deploy a drag device, such as a drogue chute, to slow the container down and reorient the container, prior to deployment of the UAV from the container. During the time between ejection from the host aircraft and deployment from the container, the UAV may be powered up and acquire data, such as global positioning system (GPS) data, to allow the UAV a “hot start” enabling immediate mission commencement.

    Abstract translation: 一个集装箱用于从一架主机上发射一架小型飞机,如无人飞行器(UAV)。 在从作为主机的一部分的发射器的初始弹出期间,该容器保护无人机免受应力。 初始应力可能是由于主飞机附近的湍流,高空速和/或可能由主飞机在高空速下移动而导致的翻滚造成的。 在从容器部署UAV之前,容器可以部署拖动装置,例如锥形滑槽,以使容器向下减速并重新定向容器。 在从主机飞行器和从集装箱部署之间的时间期间,UAV可以被加电并且获取诸如全球定位系统(GPS)数据的数据,以允许UAV“启动”,从而立即启动任务。
