[0002] There are currently two main methods for transporting large structural sections, such as rocket modules. The first method uses a packaging box. This box is constructed from a welded steel frame and skin, with built-in brackets to hold the entire launch vehicle module. However, packaging boxes typically have large outer dimensions, and as the diameter of launch vehicles increases, they become difficult to meet the constraints of rail and road transportation. Furthermore, the packaging box structure is relatively complex, resulting in high production costs.

[0003] The second method involves using an end-face shield. This cylindrical shield is constructed by welding a steel frame to sheet iron. It attaches to the end face of the rocket and protects the end face, the bottom of the box, or other components such as the engine during transport. However, as a single welded component, the end-face shield cannot be observed during installation, posing a safety risk. Furthermore, the shield is large in size and carries high transportation costs. Utility Model Content

[0022] These and / or other aspects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent and readily understood from the following description of preferred embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:

[0023] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of an assembled protective cover for rocket transportation according to one embodiment of the utility model;

[0024] Figure 2 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram showing the structure of the connection between the triangular bracket and the pressing block in the assembled protective cover;

[0025] Figure 3 yes Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the structure after the triangular bracket is connected to the frame and the cross-shaped reinforcement rod. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The following examples and accompanying drawings further illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention. In the specification, the same or similar reference numerals indicate the same or similar components. The following description of the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings is intended to explain the overall technical concept of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0027] See also Figure 1 , shows a schematic diagram of the overall structure of an assembly protective cover 10 for rocket transportation according to an embodiment of the present utility model. Generally, the assembly protective cover 10 includes a main frame 1 and a waterproof and thermal insulation cover 11 covering the outer side of the main frame 1 and tied thereon. In order to achieve rapid assembly, the main frame 1 adopts a modular design, and each component is fixedly connected or screwed using a connection method such as bolts. The provision of the waterproof and thermal insulation cover 11 can ensure that it is not affected by rain, gravel, etc. during the transportation of the rocket, and also has a heat preservation effect.

[0028] In this embodiment, due to the modular design, the weight of a single component does not exceed 10 kilograms, which is convenient for operators to assemble and disassemble quickly.

[0029] Specifically, the main frame 1 includes main components such as a frame 2, a reinforcing rod 3 and a triangular bracket 4. It should be noted here that the number and setting positions of the reinforcing rod 3 and the triangular bracket 4 can be set according to actual needs and are not limited to the situation shown in the figure.

[0030] The frame 2 is typically annular, but can also be configured in other suitable shapes. In the illustrated embodiment, the two reinforcing rods 3 are arranged in a cross shape, that is, the reinforcing rods 3 are formed into a cross shape. The two reinforcing rods 3 are vertically arranged on the frame 2, and the centers of the two reinforcing rods 3 are connected to each other, and the ends are fixedly connected to the frame 2 and the triangular bracket 4 respectively.

[0031] Furthermore, in order to achieve a better overall reinforcement effect, another reinforcement rod 3 that is shorter than the previous reinforcement rod 3 can be set in the middle position of two adjacent cross-shaped reinforcement rods 3. For example, four reinforcement rods 3 with a slightly shorter length can be set to form a roughly rectangular reinforcement frame within the frame 2.

[0032] A plurality of triangular supports 4 are spaced apart between the frame 2 and the rocket end frame of the launch vehicle compartment 20. Through such modular design, the frame 2, the reinforcing rods 3 and the triangular supports 4 can be fixed by, for example, screwing to form a truss structure.

[0033] In some embodiments, the tops of at least some of the triangular supports 4 are screwed to the frame 2 and the reinforcing rods 3. As shown in the figure, the tops of four triangular supports 4 are screwed to the frame 2 and the cross-shaped reinforcing rods 3, thereby forming a barrel-shaped truss structure as a whole with the frame 2, the cross-shaped reinforcing rods 3 and the triangular supports 4.

[0034] See also Figure 2 The triangular bracket 4 is welded from an aluminum angle 41 and an aluminum tube 42. The bottom of the aluminum angle 41 is provided with a through hole for screw connection to the rocket end frame. The bottom of the aluminum angle 41 of the triangular bracket 4 is also provided with a threaded hole, and the modular triangular bracket 4 is screwed together into a whole by a pressure block 43.

[0035] In addition, the top aluminum tube 42 of the triangular bracket 4 is provided with threaded holes corresponding to the threaded holes on the frame 2 and the cross-shaped reinforcing rod 3. That is, the three can be assembled together using bolts through these threaded holes.

[0036] See also Figure 3 , the top of a part of the triangular bracket 4 is directly screwed to the frame 2, and is not screwed to the reinforcing rod 3. Figure 1 There are also four triangular brackets 4 arranged between the triangular brackets 4 connected to the reinforcing rods 3, thereby further playing a reinforcing role.

[0037] The structure of the assembly protective cover 10 for rocket transportation of the present invention will be described in detail below in combination with the assembly process of the various components of this embodiment.

[0038] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first method is to assemble the triangular bracket 4 first, then assemble the frame 2, and finally install it on the rocket end frame. The specific assembly steps are as follows:

[0039] 1. Arrange the modularized multiple tripod brackets 4 in a pre-set order;

[0040] 2. Screw the triangular brackets 4 together into a whole by connecting the pressing blocks 43;

[0041] 3. Screw the frame 2 and the reinforcing rod 3 to the upper end of the triangular bracket 4 to form a truss protective cover;

[0042] 4. The whole vehicle is hoisted and turned over to dock with the rocket end frame of the carrier rocket compartment 20;

[0043] 5. Cover the outer side of the truss protective cover with a waterproof thermal insulation cover 11 and secure it with ropes.

[0044] The second assembly method is to first screw the modular multiple triangular brackets 4 to the rocket end frame of the carrier rocket compartment 20 according to the pre-set label order. The subsequent steps are basically the same as the relevant steps of the first assembly method, so they will not be repeated. The only difference is that there is no need to lift the truss protective cover after it is formed.

[0045] An assembly protective cover for rocket transportation according to an embodiment of the present invention has at least one or at least some of the following advantages:

[0046] 1. The utility model provides a truss-type protective cover, which is made up of modular components screwed together. A waterproof and thermal insulation cover is tied to the outside of the protective cover, which enables the quick assembly and disassembly of the protective cover while taking into account the requirements of lightweight, low cost, and safety.

[0047] 2. The utility model realizes the rapid disassembly and assembly of the assembled protective cover through modular design and screw connection between various components, which greatly reduces the size of the transport envelope;

[0048] 3. The components of this utility model are modular and lightweight, with a single component weighing less than ten kilograms and can be disassembled and assembled without a crane;

[0049] 4. The waterproof and thermal insulation overalls of the present invention can achieve waterproof and thermal insulation effects.

[0050] Although some embodiments of the overall technical concept of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that changes can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the overall technical concept, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
