Abrégé

A device for launching an object is described. The device comprises a frame affixed to the launch pad, a push element for pushing an object detached from the launch pad, and a flexible force storing element for turning the push element in relation to the frame. The device has a casing fixed to the frame at a fixing point for holding the object in place against the push element. The device has a lock element for locking the casing in standby position. The frame and the push element are superposed and connected to each other at one edge of the device. The frame and the push element are substantially parallel. Force stored in the force storing element is releasable for displacing the push element at a moment of launch. The force storing element may be at least one spring or elastic band or an extension spring.

Abrégé

The present invention relates to a method for replacing a signal controlling an actuator in a remote-controlled flying device with another signal. A flight controller supplies control signals to a safety device, and the signal to be replaced may be a signal to be transmitted by the safety device to a speed controller of at least one motor, or to a servo unit controlling the same, or the signal to be replaced may be a signal to be transmitted from the safety device to a servo unit controlling legs, a camera rack, a camera, a stabilizing system or an electric motor of the flying device. A replacement signal is a signal stored in a memory of the safety device. The replacement signal may be capable of controlling the speed controller directly or via the servo unit, in such a way that power transmission to said motor/motors is stopped or reduced, and this motor is/these motors are switched off or its/their rotation is decelerated, or the replacement signal may be capable of controlling said servo unit in such a way that said actuator is moved to a second position. The replacement signal may be a signal to be transmitted from a receiver past a flight controller, capable of controlling the speed controller or servo unit of the motor in such a way that power transmission to the motor is stopped or reduced, or to control said actuator in such a way that this actuator is moved to another position.

An object of the invention is a launching device for launching an object from a launch pad, wherein said apparatus comprises a frame (1) affixed to the launch pad, a push element (2) for pushing an object detached from the launch pad, a flexible force storing element (3) for turning the push element (2) in relation to the frame (1), a casing (4) for holding the launchable object in place against the push element (2), and a lock element (6) for locking the casing (4) in standby position and for bringing the launching device in a position of ready to operate such that the frame (1) and the push element (2) are superposed and connected to each other substantially at one edge of the device, the frame (1) and the push element (2) being substantially parallel, force being stored in the force storing element (3) for displacing the push element (2) and that said stored force being releasable at a moment of launch. The force storing element (3) is composed of at least one spring (3`) or elastic band (3``) or an extension spring functioning as an elastic band, and the casing (4) has been attached fixedly to the frame (1) at its fixing point (9).

The object of this invention is a method to shoot an object from a flying apparatus. Into an flying apparatus, into certain part of it, like a container that consists at least of a bottom and a shell a spring will be placed, like a push spring that has been loaded in a tense state and that is locked in this position using a fixing organ and further there will be put as an extension of the spring an object to be shot out from the flying apparatus. The fixing organ is thread, metal cord, bar, strip, rope, line, or some combination of these and tension strength (T) is greater than the tension load of the push force (F) to the mentioned fixing organ. the tension strength (T) of the fixing organ is weakened to be less than the mentioned tension load by heating, burning, or melting the mentioned fixing organ by electric energy when the fixing organ breaks, the spring expands into the direction of the object and the push force (F) pushes the object out of the container and off the flying apparatus. The apparatus that is used in the present method is also an object of the invention.

The object of the invention is a method to replace the control signal of an operation organ of a remote controlled flying apparatus with another signal. The signal to be replaced (a, b, etc., y, z, etc.) is a signal to be sent from the safety unit (5) to the speed regulator (7) that controls at least one operation organ or servo controlling it or a signal to be sent to servo controlling other operation organ and the replacing signal (x, y\,z\, etc.) is a signal in the memory of the safety unit (5) that is capable of controlling the mentioned speed regulator or servo in such a way that the rotation speed of the motor (6) is essentially changed or the position of other by servo controlled operation organ is changed. In the method, the replacing signal is stored in the memory of the safety unit (5) and in a faulty situation the safety unit interrupts sending the signal to be replaced and feeds instead the replacing signal. As an application of the invention the mentioned replacing of the signal is connected to the opening of the parachute (8) and then the opening of the parachute of the flying apparatus causes automatically a considerable decreasing of the motors (6) rotation speed. The replacing signal can also be directed past the safety unit to its target.
