ASSEMBLY METHOD OF AIR SHIPS OF RIGID TYPE AND DEVICE FOR ITS IMPLEMENTATION Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC B64F5/10 B25B27/14 B64B1/06 

FIELD: aviation.

SUBSTANCE: rigid airship rigid hull assembly method includes assembly of body and outer shell compartments. Nose, tail and central compartments of airship are installed on movable along rail guides technological support end and intermediate trusses. Body compartments are fixed with winches, the compartments are connected to each other by means of stringer trusses and diagonal braces. Intermediate supporting trusses are removed and housing is left from compartments installed only on end support trusses. Sections of outer shell on airship body. Housing sections are assembled in its lower part, and sections of outer shell are installed in horizontal plane passing through housing axis from cradle of mobile platform truss. In the process of assembly, the body compartments are rotated and the platform and the truss with the cradle at the tangent to the meridian circumference of the body compartments are moved. Device for rigid airship rigid body assembly contains winch and cradle. Device is equipped with installed on rail guides process support end and intermediate trusses, moved along housing compartments by platform and movable truss with rotary cradle installed on platform with possibility of movement across housing. Winch is installed with possibility of rotation and holding of airship body compartments.

EFFECT: group of inventions is aimed at increasing labor productivity by simplifying assembly.
