Adrien Regas has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
Abstract: An airship (1) comprising a flexible envelope (2), a wall (3) located inside the envelope, and a pumping device. The wall (3) extends longitudinally between the nose and the tail, thus separating the inside space of the envelope into a first space (E1) and a second space (E2), said second space being located on the periphery of the envelope between a first point (P1) and a second point (P2). The pumping device is adapted to inflate the second space so that the envelope assumes a second shape, and to deflate the second space so that the envelope assumes a first shape which is different from the second shape.
