Problems solved by technology

[0003] The existing mooring tower devices for aerostats are mostly made of metal steel, and their weight is often very large. However, the aerostats need to be disassembled and transported frequently during use. Excessive mass will inevitably lead to disassembly and assembly of the mooring tower. It is complex and requires professional lifting equipment and more operators, which seriously affects the flying efficiency of tethered balloons
[0004] At the same time, the traditional folding mooring tower usually uses ordinary bolts when fixing the tower body, and there is inevitably a fit gap during installation, which makes the tower body tremble.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of aerostats, and particularly discloses a quick-release modular mooring tower device which can be used for anchoring, flying and recycling of a mooring balloon, anda mooring tower comprises a mooring tower fixing module, a mooring tower rotating module, a lifting module and an optional conical fixing device. The mooring tower main body is divided into two modules, the modules are manufactured by adopting a carbon fiber composite material co-curing molding technology, the weight is light, the rigidity is high, and the mooring tower modules are convenient toassemble and disassemble. The conical fixing device can be composed of tapered primary and secondary bolts, has a guiding function, is accurate in positioning, and is beneficial to disassembly, assembly and transportation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of aerostats, in particular to a ground mooring device for aerostats, in particular to a quick-detachable, modular mooring tower for aerostats. Background technique [0002] When the aerostat is moored on the ground, it is mainly realized by the zippers on the head and both sides. Due to the large volume of the aerostat, the mooring device connected to the head of the aerostat needs to be lifted to a certain height when mooring on the ground, so a high-position installation platform is provided through the mooring tower. In the vehicle-mounted mobile mooring system, the mooring system includes a lot of equipment such as main hoist, auxiliary hoist, control cabinet, guide pulley generator, etc., which makes the installation space of the whole system tight. [0003] The existing mooring tower devices for aerostats are mostly made of metal steel, and their weight is often very large. However, the aerostats need to be di...
