DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION TECHNICAL FIELD
The invention relates to a system by which containers are dropped from airplanes, generally through an opened rear door. The dropped containers are typically suspended from parachutes after they are free of the aircraft. The invention more particularly relates to positive release mechanisms, which when actuated, permit the containers to move rearwardly on rollers out of the opened rear aircraft door, the aircraft being tilted forwardly upwardly about 7°.
BACKGROUND ART
Container delivery system air-drops are presently effected on existing airplanes by the use of a guillotine knife to cut release gates which are comprised of one or more layers of nylon webbing that hold the containers in the airplane. A winch cable is strung the length of the cargo compartment to reach the release gates toward or at the after end of the cargo floor, the cable being used to release the guillotine knife for individual cuts.
