FIELD: astronautics.
SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to means and methods of extravehicular activity (EVA) and can be used in simulating EVA on the Earth. Plaster contains cloth (C) stretched on rigid closed frame, braces connected to angles of C, and handle located in center of C is made of screen-vacuum heat insulation (SVHI), identical in composition of space object SVHI. Stretchers are made in the form of elastic cords with hooks (like fishing) on ends. Hooks are built into handles, which are coupled with a cosmonaut spacesuit inflated glove, and cords are placed into fabric covers. Stinger and barb of every hook are protected by fluorophonic tube. Method of patch operation includes marking the boundary of damaged section of SVHI, fixing with extensions, pre-fixing of safety mark of astronaut halyard by handle of plaster. Injured section is closed with the help of C, the braces are serially unfolded in the direction of continuation of the bisectors of the internal angles of C, the hooks released from the protective tubes are attached to the SVHI surface. After all hooks are hooked, astronaut halyard is disengaged from handle C.
EFFECT: reduction of labor intensity, increase in safety and reliability of recovery of functions of SVHI in EVA.
