Embodiment Construction

[0029] As shown, the cabin portion of the boarding bridge comprises a canopy 140 at the end of which the kissing device 100 is arranged. The above-described kissing device 100 is connected to a buffer provided at an end of the canopy 140 , or the kissing device 100 may be directly connected to an end of the canopy 140 without a buffer.

[0030] The above-mentioned kissing device 100 is configured to surround the end of the canopy 140 and includes an inflatable part 110 and a buffer material (buffer material) 120. The inflatable part 110 is used to connect the upper surface of the canopy 140 with both sides thereof, and the buffer material 120 is positioned within the plenum 110 to prevent air from being introduced into the plenum 110 or to maintain a constant volume within the kissing device 100 even if a slight air leak from the plenum 110 occurs.

[0031] In addition to the general shape of the aircraft's approximately circular cross-section, the shapes of large aircraft (su...

Abstract

An exemplary osculating device for a mobile boarding bridge includes an air charge part that is attached to the end of the canopy of a mobile boarding bridge and that can inject air. A buffer material is provided in the air charge part that can maintain a fixed shape, even if the air is discharged from the air charge part.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an osculating device for an aerobridge canopy. [0002] More specifically, the present invention relates to a kissing device for a canopy on a passenger boarding bridge that avoids the formation of a gap between the canopy and the aircraft by kissing the entry side of the aircraft and reduces the risk of passengers passing through a mobile boarding bridge. Discomfort that may be caused to passengers by the wind or rain blowing in from the aforementioned gap when the bridge is approaching or departing from the aircraft. Background technique [0003] Generally speaking, a mobile boarding bridge is a pathway connecting the boarding gate directly to the aircraft, which can be moved and turned so that it can adapt to the size and shape of the aircraft. [0004] As shown in Fig. 1a, Fig. 1b and Fig. 1c, the above-mentioned mobile boarding bridge comprises: an adjustable-length channel 10 or pathway through which passengers m...
