Detailed description of the invention
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the invention will be further described:
As shown in Figure 1, the gradual change inflatable docking facilities that extends out for space of the present invention comprises docking pipeline 8, the first end (in figure right-hand member) of docking pipeline 8 is provided with butt flange 9, docking pipeline 8 is provided with five groups of blocks 1 successively to the direction of first end from the second end (in figure left end) and spacing between five groups of blocks 1 is more and more less, also can be increasing, often organize block 1 to form near the block 1 arranged by two, the elastic body of tubulose is separately installed with between two adjacent groups block 1, elastic body comprises the first elastic body 2, second elastic body 3, 3rd elastic body 5, 4th elastic body 6, each elastomeric two ends are tightly connected with corresponding two groups of blocks 1 respectively, each elastomeric termination to be placed between two blocks 1 and to be sealed, first elastic body 2, second elastic body 3, 3rd elastic body 5 is identical with the elasticity of the 4th elastic body 6 or substantially identical, be positioned at head, the tube wall of the docking pipeline 8 between tail two groups of blocks 1 be provided with multiple in the through hole 7 that is interlinked to the outside, first elastic body 2, second elastic body 3, the length of the 3rd elastic body 5 and the 4th elastic body 6 reduces successively, each elastic body is followed successively by air-retaining liner, bearing layer and elastic layer from inside to outside, and air-retaining liner is butyl rubber film, and bearing layer is aramid fiber, and elastic layer is rubber film.Above-mentioned block 1 is collar stop, is fixedly installed on the outer wall of docking pipeline 8.
