Abstract

The invention provides a tethered and autonomous flight dual-purpose solar aerostat. The tethered and autonomous flight dual-purpose solar aerostat comprises a gasbag and an auxiliary gasbag. The gasbag is filled with levitation gas. The auxiliary gasbag located on the lower middle portion of the gasbag is used for being inflated and deflated. A film type solar cell is pasted on the upper surface of the gasbag in a covering mode. An X-shaped empennage with a control plane is arranged on the rear portion of the gasbag. Electric duct steering propellers are arranged on the two sides of the middle of the gasbag correspondingly. An electric propeller is arranged at the tail of the gasbag. An undercarriage is arranged on the lower middle portion of the gasbag. The tethered and autonomous flight dual-purpose solar aerostat mainly combines the advantages of a traditional airship and a tethered balloon, thus the single aerostat can fly autonomously and can also achieve fixed point tethering, and meanwhile the solar cell and an energy storage cell are used for supplying electricity and providing flight power for shipboard equipment. Compared with the traditional airship, the dual-purpose solar aerostat has the advantages of being longer in endurance time, environmentally friendly, capable of saving energy and the like. Compared with a conventional tethered balloon, the dual-purpose solar aerostat has the advantages of being high in maneuverability, good in economic property, large in task execution area and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of aircraft, and in particular relates to a solar aerostat capable of mooring and flying autonomously. Background technique [0002] An aerostat is an aircraft that is filled with a light gas that is lighter than air and is lifted into the air mainly by the static buoyancy of the air. Airships and tethered balloons are also important components of the aerostat lineage. [0003] The tethered balloon is a kind of tethered balloon that is stably moored at a space with a certain altitude by tethering cables and ground mooring devices, and is equipped with mission equipment to perform long-term reconnaissance, surveillance, and early warning of ground and air targets. , The system platform of the communication task belongs to the unpowered aerostat. Different from a tethered balloon, an airship is a powered aerostat that uses a power propulsion system, a boat-borne functional system, and a flight control system to achiev...
