FIELD: astronautics.
SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to means and methods of performing manual operations in a vacuum, on the surface of planets, in hazardous gaseous and liquid media, etc. Proposed system comprises habitable hermetic cabin (1) (hermetic chamber) and functional unit (2), evacuation devices (with valves 6, 7), sealed cover (32) with load-bearing part fragment (9) fixed on block (2) bottom (13) through bellows (14). Hermetic chamber (1) is connected to androgen-peripheral docking unit (3) via sealed cup (5) and tunnel (4) and is installed on platform (8) with undercarriage and height adjustment. During operation of the system in hermetic cabin (1) the required pressure and composition (due the life support system) of the atmosphere are created, after which cosmonaut operators (11, 12) pass through tunnel (4) into hermetic cabin (1) and close sealed cover (5). Hermetic cabin (1) is undocked from the basic module and moved to the next place of works performance. Astronaut-operator (11) operates in space-suit fragment (9), and other astronaut (12) according to directions of the first one corrects position of hermetic cabin (1). At the end of the work, the system is joined to the basic module and pressure is balanced therein.
EFFECT: technical result is improvement of safety, ergonomics and other operational characteristics of proposed system.
