Höhenregulierer fur leichter-als-Luft FluggeräteAltitude regulators for lighter-than-air aircraft

Die Erfindung gehört zum technischen Gebiet der leichter-als-Luft Technologie.The invention belongs to the technical field of lighter-than-air technology.

Leichter-als-Luft Fluggeräte (DEOO 19924467Al) basieren auf dem Prinzip des Auftriebs, ein solches Fluggerät verharrt also in einer bestimmten Flughöhe, in der die mittlere Dichte des Fluggeräts gleich der Dichte des Atmosphärengases in jener Höhe ist.Lighter-than-air aircraft (DEOO 19924467Al) are based on the principle of lift, i.e. such an aircraft remains at a certain altitude at which the average density of the aircraft is equal to the density of the atmospheric gas at that altitude.

Der im Schutzanspruch angegebenen Erfindung hegt das Problem zugrunde, einen Höhenregulierer zu schaffen, der es ermöglicht das Fluggerät auf eine andere Höhe zu befördern und in dieser Höhe verharren zu lassen, ohne Energie für den Vorgang des Verharrens auf der neuen Höhe zu verbrauchen.The invention specified in the protection claim is based on the problem of creating an altitude regulator which makes it possible to transport the aircraft to a different altitude and to allow it to remain at this altitude without consuming energy for the process of remaining at the new altitude.

Dieses Problem wird mit den im Schutzanspruch aufgeführten Merkmalen gelöst.This problem is solved with the features listed in the protection claim.

Ein Ausfuhrungsbeispiel der Erfindung wäre das Absenken des Fluggeräts um beispielsweise Fracht aufzunehmen.An exemplary embodiment of the invention would be the lowering of the aircraft in order to pick up cargo, for example.

Durch das Aufnehmen des Atmosphärengases in den Überdruckbehälter würde das Fluggerät auf die gewünschte Höhe herabsinken und dort verharren, nach dem Aufnehmen der Fracht steigt das Fluggerät, durch Ablassen des Atmosphärengases aus dem Überdruckbehälter, wieder an. Wobei der Rückstoß des ausströmenden Atmosphärengases dazu verwendet werden kann das Fluggerät in Flugrichtung zu beschleunigen.By taking in the atmospheric gas in the overpressure tank, the aircraft would descend to the desired altitude and remain there. After picking up the cargo, the aircraft would rise again by releasing the atmospheric gas from the overpressure tank. The recoil of the escaping atmospheric gas can be used to accelerate the aircraft in the direction of flight.

Ein weiteres Anwendungsbeispiel wäre das Absetzen von Fracht. Beim Absetzen einer vom Fluggerät getragenen Last würde durch die plötzlich geringere mittlere Dichte des Fluggeräts ein stärkerer Auftrieb entstehen. Die anschließende Flughöhe des Fluggeräts wäre also größer, was dazu fuhren würde, dass der im Traggaskörper auf die Außenhaut wirkende Druck ebenfalls größer wäre. Um zu verhindern das die Außenhaut beschädigt wird müßte also die Flughöhe verringert werden, was durch das Aufnehmen des Atmosphärengases in den Überdruckbehälter geschehen würde.Another application example would be the unloading of cargo. When unloading a load carried by an aircraft, the sudden reduction in the aircraft's average density would result in greater lift. The aircraft's subsequent flight altitude would therefore be higher, which would mean that the pressure acting on the outer skin in the lifting gas body would also be higher. In order to prevent the outer skin from being damaged, the flight altitude would have to be reduced, which would be achieved by absorbing the atmospheric gas into the overpressure container.

Mit der Erfindung wird erreicht, dass das Fluggerät, aufgrund der Variation seiner mittleren Dichte, sich auf verschiedenen Flughöhen befinden kann, wobei nur für die Änderung der mittleren Dichte Energie verbraucht wird und nicht für das Verharren auf der gewünschten Flughöhe, wie es bei einer Höhenregulierung aufgrund von Triebwerksarbeit (DEOOlOOl 1319Al) der Fall wäre. Ein unkomplizierter Ausgleich einer Masseänderung, zum Erhalt einer konstanten Flughöhe, ist ebenfalls ein durch die Erfindung erreichter Vorteil.The invention ensures that the aircraft can be at different altitudes due to the variation in its average density, whereby energy is only consumed for the change in the average density and not for remaining at the desired altitude, as would be the case with altitude regulation based on engine work (DEOOlOOl 1319Al). An uncomplicated compensation of a change in mass to maintain a constant altitude is also an advantage achieved by the invention.

Claims (1)

Höhenregulierer für leichter-als-Luft Fluggeräte, welche auf dem Prinzip des Auftriebs basieren, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die dem Auftrieb entgegenwirkende Kraft zur Senkung des Fluggeräts durch das Aufnehmen des Atmosphärengases, evtl. mittels eines Pumpsystems, in einen, innerhalb oder außerhalb des Traggaskörpers befindlichen, mit einer starren oder flexiblen Außenhülle versehenen, Überdruckbehälter entsteht, bzw. die mit dem Auftrieb wirkende Kraft zum Ansteigen des Fluggeräts durch das Ablassen des Atmosphärengases aus dem Überdruckbehälter entsteht. Altitude regulator for lighter-than-air aircraft which is based on the principle of lift, characterized in that the force counteracting the lift to lower the aircraft is created by taking in the atmospheric gas, possibly by means of a pumping system, in a pressurized container located inside or outside the lifting gas body and provided with a rigid or flexible outer shell, or the force acting with the lift to rise the aircraft is created by releasing the atmospheric gas from the pressurized container.
