A parachute device for a helicopter includes a canopy confining case having a stationary casing part, and a removable casing part mounted removably on the stationary casing part. The stationary and removable casing parts cooperatively form a compartment to receive a parachute canopy that has a release cord connected to the removable casing part, and a suspension line unit. An anchoring line has one end that extends into the canopy confining case and that is coupled to the suspension line unit of the parachute canopy. A rocket member includes a launch tube mounted on the stationary casing part externally of the compartment, and a rocket disposed in the launch tube and connected to the removable casing part. The rocket is capable of propelling from the launch tube when ignited. An ignition control line has a first end connected to the rocket member, and a second end provided with an ignition unit that is operable so as to ignite the rocket.
