Abstract: An airship includes a gasbag, a cockpit and a first shaft body, where the gasbag is filled with a gas for lifting the airship; the gasbag and the cockpit are sequentially arranged along an axial direction of the first shaft body and fixed to the first shaft body, and there is a spacing between the gasbag and the cockpit; at least one of the gasbag and the cockpit is rotatably connected to the first shaft body; after the gasbag is filled with the gas for lifting the airship, any section of the gasbag in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the first shaft body is circular or annular; and the axial direction of the first shaft body is the same as a direction of gravity.

Abstract: A system for suction of the boundary layer of a wing and protection against icing of this wing includes a wall including micro-perforations and delimiting a leading edge extended by a pressure-side wall and by a suction-side wall. The system also includes a perforated tube running along the leading edge, an exhaust duction for sucking air from this tube in order to suck the boundary layer successively via the micro-perforations of the wall and via the perforations of the tube, and a supply duct for blowing hot air into this perforated tube during a phase of protection against icing, this hot air being discharged successively via the perforations of the tube and via the micro-perforations of the wall.

Abstract: An attitude control apparatus (20) includes an ideal thrust direction calculator (22), an ideal attitude calculator (24), a target attitude calculator (26), and a torque calculator (28). The ideal thrust direction calculator (22) calculates an ideal thrust direction of a thruster. The target attitude calculator (26) calculates a target attitude that is the attitude of a satellite in which a deviation from an ideal attitude is minimized within a movement limitation of an attitude control actuator (14) while a panel surface faces the sun. The torque calculator (28) calculates a torque for turning the satellite from an actual attitude to the target attitude and transmits a torque instruction to the attitude control actuator (14).

Abstract: Aircraft door (1) including an opening (4), a frame (3), a hinge structure (5) and a circular translation guide device designed to maintain the orientation of the opening (4) during the opening or closing thereof. The hinge structure (5) is connected to the opening (4) by a lifting arm (8) allowing a lifting movement of the opening (4) relative to the hinge structure (5). The circular translation guide device includes a single link (11) connected to the frame (3) by one of the ends thereof and by the other of the ends thereof to a lever (13) which is attached to the hinge structure (5).

Abstract: The application discloses a coaxial helicopter, the cyclic pitch-changing mechanism simultaneously adjusts the pitches of the upper and the lower rotor systems, to make uniformity cyclic pitch-changing adjustment of the upper and lower rotors, and make independent collective pitch adjustment of the upper rotor system; the differential pitch-changing mechanism and the cyclic pitch-changing mechanism jointly act on the lower rotor system, to perform differential collective pitch adjustment of the upper and lower rotor systems. The synchronous rotating mechanism drives the swashplate members to synchronously rotate along with the drive shaft.
