Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aircraft cover technology, specifically an aircraft cover with hail protection function. Background Technology

[0002] When aircraft are routinely or temporarily parked, they must be protected with aircraft tarpaulins that effectively shield all critical parts of the aircraft. Generally, ordinary tarpaulins are sufficient for general protection needs. However, in recent years, with global warming and the increase in extreme weather events, the incidence of hail has been gradually rising. Hail can cause damage to aircraft and result in significant economic losses. To avoid the risk of hail damage and ensure the smooth operation of flight missions, aircraft must be covered with hail-resistant tarpaulins when parked on the ground.

[0003] Currently, most aircraft tarpaulins are of relatively simple design, offering insufficient protection and requiring time-consuming and labor-intensive installation and removal. A search revealed three patent documents: CN212890997U discloses a tarpaulin structure for a fixed-wing aircraft; CN210162237U discloses an inflatable tarpaulin for aircraft; and CN219277804U discloses an inflatable multi-functional aircraft tarpaulin. These three patent documents offer tarpaulins for aircraft from different perspectives. To meet the demands of extreme weather events and prevent damage from hail, there is an urgent need to improve existing tarpaulins, providing a different type of aircraft tarpaulin than those disclosed in the prior art to satisfy current usage requirements. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to address the problems existing in the background art, thereby providing an aircraft cover with good protective effect and easy to put on and take off. When in use, it can be directly covered on the surface of the aircraft. Not only is it easy to put on and take off, but it also has the waterproof and dustproof functions of ordinary cover, and can also protect the aircraft skin from hail. Specifically, it is an aircraft cover with hail protection function.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an aircraft cover with anti-hail function, including a buffer layer of the cover, the cover having an outer cover and an inner cover, the buffer layer being disposed between the outer cover and the inner cover, the cover abutting against the aircraft fuselage through the inner cover, and having nylon hook-and-loop fasteners and multiple straps arranged symmetrically on both sides of the cover, the cover being detachably secured to the aircraft fuselage by the nylon hook-and-loop fasteners, and the straps being used to further enhance the secureness.

[0006] Furthermore, in the aircraft cover with hail protection function described in this utility model, the buffer layer is made of space cotton and EVA elastic fabric, which are sewn together in a diamond quilting manner to form an integral structure. The space cotton is located inside the EVA elastic fabric, and the buffer layer forms a flexible buffer structure layer through the space cotton and EVA elastic fabric.

[0007] Furthermore, the aircraft cover with anti-hail function described in this utility model is made of high-strength Oxford cloth and is a single-layer structure that matches the shape of the aircraft fuselage. The outer cover and inner cover are the same as the outer cover. The buffer layer is fixed to the inner cover by adhesive bonding.

[0008] Furthermore, the aircraft cover with hail protection function described in this utility model is made of high-strength Oxford cloth to form a double-layer structure that matches the shape of the aircraft fuselage, and the outer and inner covers are fixed into an integral structure by sewing along their four perimeters.

[0009] Furthermore, in the aircraft cover with hail protection function described in this utility model, a silver coating is also applied to the outer layer of the outer cover.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the aircraft cover with hail protection function described in this utility model has the following advantages: Because a buffer layer is provided between the outer and inner cover, and nylon hook-and-eye closures and multiple symmetrically arranged straps are provided on both sides of the cover, it is convenient to cover the aircraft surface with the cover. Its advantages are mainly reflected in the following aspects: First, the overall structure is simple, easy to carry and use, requires low technical skills from users, is easy for people of different levels to use, facilitates quick loading and unloading in the field, is particularly suitable for dealing with extreme weather, and effectively ensures the safety of aircraft when parked in the field. Secondly, the buffer layer is formed by combining different materials such as space cotton and EVA elastic cloth to form a flexible buffer layer. By utilizing the characteristics of different materials, the covering cloth has a regional buffering and shock absorption effect, which can progressively enhance its protective performance and effectively prevent hail from damaging key parts of the aircraft. Third, the outer and inner lining fabrics are made of high-strength Oxford cloth, which is waterproof and dustproof, has high tensile strength, strong impact resistance, and is soft in texture. It will not damage the aircraft skin and can play a very good protective role.

[0011] Therefore, the aircraft cover described in this utility model not only has the waterproof and dustproof functions of ordinary cover, but also protects the aircraft skin from hail, is easy to carry and use, can meet the needs of different levels of personnel, is particularly suitable for dealing with extreme weather, can well ensure the safety of aircraft when parked in the field, and its overall structure is simple, practical and suitable for widespread application.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0018] It should be noted that the term "comprising" or any other variation is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. Example 1

[0019] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides an aircraft cover with hail protection function, including a cover 1 and a buffer layer 2. The cover 1 has an outer cover 11 and an inner cover 12. The buffer layer 2 is disposed between the outer cover 11 and the inner cover 12. The cover 1 is attached to the aircraft fuselage through the inner cover 12. On both sides of the cover 1, there are lace hooks 3 and multiple straps 4 arranged symmetrically. The cover 1 is detachably fixed to the aircraft fuselage by the lace hooks 3 and the straps 4 are used to further enhance the fixation.

[0020] The aircraft cover provided in this embodiment is used to enhance the ability of the cover 1 to resist hail and to protect the aircraft skin 5. Both the outer cover 11 and the inner cover 12 are made of high-strength Oxford cloth and are single-layer structures that match the shape of the aircraft fuselage. The outer shape and structure of the buffer layer 2 are the same as those of the inner cover 12. The buffer layer 2 is fixed to the inner cover 12 by adhesive bonding.

[0021] In order to enhance the aircraft skin's ability to resist hail and provide protection for the aircraft skin 5, the buffer layer 2 includes space cotton 21 and EVA elastic fabric 22. The space cotton 21 and EVA elastic fabric 22 are sewn together in a diamond quilting method to form an integral structure. The buffer layer 2 forms a flexible buffer layer through the space cotton 21 and EVA elastic fabric 22.

[0022] A flexible cushioning layer is used. Because the space cotton 21 is soft, lightweight, fluffy, and not easily loosened or deformed, its thickness of about 60mm is sufficient to provide it with a certain cushioning capacity. The EVA elastic fabric 22 is also soft, waterproof, has good resilience, and is not easily deformed. Its thickness of about 5mm is sufficient to further enhance its shock absorption and impact resistance. The characteristics of the above-mentioned different materials enable the covering fabric 1 to have a regional cushioning and shock absorption effect, which can progressively enhance its protective performance and improve its ability to resist hail, thereby providing a good protective effect for the aircraft skin 5.

[0023] Furthermore, in the aircraft cover with hail protection function described in this utility model, a silver coating is also applied to the outer surface of the outer cover 11. This silver coating reflects sunlight and blocks ultraviolet rays, thus further improving the functionality of the aircraft cover. Example 2

[0024] This embodiment, based on Embodiment 1, further enhances its hail protection effect by employing an aircraft cover with hail protection function provided in this embodiment. Both the outer cover 11 and the inner cover 12 are made of high-strength Oxford cloth, forming a double-layer structure that matches the shape of the aircraft fuselage. The outer cover 11 and the inner cover 12 are fixed together as a single structure by stitching along their four perimeters. Because the outer cover 11 and the inner cover 12 are double-layered, and with the buffer layer 2 in place, in addition to their conventional functions of blocking rainwater and sand, their excellent impact resistance makes them particularly suitable for withstanding hail impacts.

[0025] In the specific manufacturing process of the aircraft cover fabric described in this utility model, high-strength Oxford cloth can be used to make the cover fabric 1 with a corresponding shape according to the aircraft's shape and structure. Space cotton 21 and EVA elastic cloth 22 are sewn and fixed to form a buffer layer 2 using a diamond quilting method. The shape of the buffer layer 2 is made to correspond to the shape of the cover fabric 1. At the same time, the buffer layer 2 is fixed to the inner cover fabric 12 using an adhesive method. The four edges of the outer cover fabric 11 and the inner cover fabric 12 are sewn together. Appropriate lengths of nylon hook-and-loop fasteners 3 and straps 4 are sewn to the two sides of the cover fabric 1 to complete the manufacturing of the aircraft cover fabric.

[0026] Therefore, the aircraft cover described in this utility model not only has the waterproof and dustproof functions of ordinary cover, but also protects the aircraft skin from hail, is easy to carry and use, can meet the needs of different levels of personnel, is particularly suitable for dealing with extreme weather, can well ensure the safety of aircraft when parked in the field, and its overall structure is simple, practical and suitable for widespread application.

[0027] Other aspects of this utility model that are not detailed herein are all conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made using the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
