Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of airship technology, and more specifically relates to a quick-installation component for remote control adjustment of airship tail fin. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, airships are basically composed of three major components: the airship capsule, the tail fin, and the pod. However, due to the long distance or aviation restrictions, each transfer flight generally requires re-inflating and reinstalling the airship capsule. After inflation, the pod and tail fin need to be installed on the airship capsule. Due to design deficiencies, each reinstallation takes at least a few hours, and sometimes half a day or even most of the day, which seriously restricts the airship's rapid response capability.
[0003] Currently, airship tail fins are generally installed using either snap fasteners or tethers. The former is not clear about how to fix the tail fin, and longitudinal adjustments require disassembly and reassembly, and it is also easy for the tail fin to fall off. Large airships generally use tethers, which is cumbersome to operate and cannot be adjusted. Both methods have obvious shortcomings, and the installation and adjustment take a long time. The former is even difficult to adjust to the optimal state, while the latter, once adjusted, does not need to be adjusted again, but the installation is still troublesome every time it is used.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a quick-installation kit for remote control adjustment of airship tail fins has become a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
