  • METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MANUFACTURING AN AEROSTAT WITH A RIGID STRUCTURE, AND HEAVY-LOAD-CARRYING AEROSTAT MANUFACTURED IN THIS WAY
    Publication number: 20240317380
    Abstract: A method for erecting the structure of an aerostat in successive horizontal sections, starting from the top horizontal section, including an iteration of the following steps, starting from a current state of completion of the aerostat structure, lifting the current state of the structure, at first lifting points, by means of lifting means arranged in a current transverse position; placing a support device in line with second lifting points for lifting the current state of the structure; transferring the current state of the structure from the lifting means to the support device; moving the lifting means to another transverse position; completely assembling the horizontal section immediately below the current state of the structure on the structure.
