## Abstract

A test system is disclosed that has a chassis, a throwing mechanism that is located at an upper part of the chassis onto which at least one weight is attached and which provides throwing the weight attached thereon, a base is located at a lower part of the chassis and onto which a weight is thrown by the throwing mechanism, a control unit for throwing the weight by the throwing mechanism, and at least one pushing member for throwing the weight by pushing which is located on the throwing mechanism and operated by the control unit.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A test system (1) comprising a chassis (2); a throwing mechanism (4) which is located at an upper part of the chassis (2), onto which at least one weight (3) is attached and which provides throwing the weight (3) attached thereon; a base (5) which is located at a lower part of the chassis (2) and onto which a weight (3) is thrown by the throwing mechanism (4); a control unit (6) for throwing the weight (3) by means of the throwing mechanism (4); and at least one pushing member (7) for throwing the weight (3) by pushing, which is located on the throwing mechanism (4) and operated by the control unit (6), characterized by at least one adjuster (8) which is operated by the control unit (6), located on the chassis (2) so as to be able to move towards or away from the pushing member (7), and moves the pushing member (7) to provide contact of the pushing member (7) to the weight (3).

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The test system (1) according to claim 1, characterized by an adjuster (8) which triggers the pushing member (7) to enable the pushing member (7) to move along the axis that it extends lengthwise by rotating around its own axis.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The test system (1) according to claim 1, characterized by a pushing member (7) which has a first position (I) on the throwing mechanism (4), a second position (II) in which the pushing member (7) is brought (I) by being rotated around its own axis by means of the adjuster (8) and contacts the weight (3), and a third position (III) in which the pushing member (7) extends from the throwing mechanism (4) towards the weight (3) by means of the control unit (6) and which provides throwing the weight (3) by pushing it downwards.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The test system (1) according to claim 3, characterized by a pushing member (7) which is pulled upwards from the third position (III) by means of the control unit (6) so as to be brought into the first position (I), and has a fourth position (IV) in which the pushing member (7) is brought from the first position (I) to a predetermined height by being rotated around its own axis by means of the adjuster (8).

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The test system (1) according to claim 1, characterized by a motor (9), and an adjuster (8) having at least one transfer member (10) which makes a rotational movement around its own axis by the movement received from the motor (9).

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The test system (1) according to claim 5, characterized by a transfer member (10) whose rotational movement around its own axis terminates upon contact of the pushing member (7) to the weight (3).

### Claim 7 (depends on 5)

The test system (1) according to claim 5, characterized by a transfer member (10) whose rotational movement around its own axis terminates upon contact of the pushing member (7) to the weight (3) due to the power of motor (9).

### Claim 8 (depends on 5)

The test system (1) according to claim 5, characterized by at least one guide (11) which is located on the pushing member (7), triggered by the transfer member (10), and thus enabling the pushing member (7) to rotate around its own axis.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The test system (1) according to claim 8, characterized by a transfer member (10) in the form of a gear, and a guide (11) in the form of a gear.

### Claim 10 (depends on 8)

The test system (1) according to claim 8, characterized by a transfer member (10) having a wider gear structure than the guide (11).

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The test system (1) according to claim 1, characterized by at least one housing (12) located on the throwing mechanism (4), at least one hook (13) located in the housing (12), and at least one ring (14) which is located on the weight (3), extends outwards from the weight (3) and held by the hook (13) when the weight (3) is attached to the throwing mechanism (4).

### Claim 12

A test system (1) characterized by a throwing mechanism (4) suitable for use in air vehicles to throw a weight (3).

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The test system (1) according to claim 12, which enables the throwing mechanism (4) used in air vehicles to be tested.
