摘要： A parafoil for operation at high altitudes, in low density air, or at low airspeeds, and methods for opening same. Some versions of the parafoil comprise flexible members connected to the parafoil canopy. When the parafoil canopy is in a stowed configuration, the members are deformed, storing elastic energy. When the canopy is released from its stowed configuration, the members spring back to their undeformed shapes, thereby opening or assisting with opening the canopy. The flexible member may also be attached to a base structure, which is attached to the payload. The members may comprise rods or hollow tubes that can be flexed using a fulcrum near the base structure, or a spacer plate, so that the ends connected to the canopy are restrained by a parachute bag containing the stowed or packed canopy. The parachute bag can be opened prior to or during detachment of the parafoil from the flight vehicle.

摘要： Described herein are features for a riser release flaring system for parafoils and other descent flight vehicles for controlled descent and landing of the flight vehicle. The descent flight vehicle may have a payload suspended by a canopy. The descent flight vehicle may be released from a high altitude lighter-than-air (LTA) system, from another system, or may not be associated with any other flight system. The riser release auto flare system is used with the descent system, such as the parafoil, for controlled and safe landing of the payload. Riser lines are released at a controlled rate and for a fixed distance to automatically cause the payload to pull control lines to flare the parafoil and slow a descent and/or forward speed of the vehicle. The riser lines may be released in response to the descent system satisfying a landing criterion, such as altitude.
摘要翻译：本文描述了用于翼伞和其他下降飞行器的用于飞行器的受控下降和降落的升降器释放扩口系统的特征。下降飞行器可能有一个有效载荷由天篷悬挂。下降飞行器可从高空比LTA系统释放，从另一系统释放，或可能不与任何其他飞行系统相关联。立管释放自动火炬系统与下降系统一起使用，例如伞翼，用于控制和安全着陆有效载荷。立管线以受控速率释放并保持固定距离，以自动使有效载荷拉动控制线以使翼伞展开并减慢车辆的下降和/或前进速度。响应于下降系统满足着陆标准（例如高度），可以释放立管线。

摘要： Described herein are features for a high altitude lighter-than-air (LTA) system and associated methods. A zero-pressure balloon (ZPB) is attached in tandem with one or more variable ballast air super-pressure balloons (SPB). The ZPB provides lift for the system while the SPB uses a centrifugal compressor to provide a variable amount of ballast air by pumping in or expelling out ambient air. Various advanced performance targets relating to ascent rate, descent rate, range and maximum altitude are achievable with various scaled versions of the basic design of the LTA system. Advanced navigation and control techniques, such as more efficient high altitude station-keeping approaches, made possible with the LTA system are also described.

One or more long wire communications antennas may be built into the balloon skin. The antenna may extend under, in, on or otherwise along one of the seams formed by connected edges of gores that define the balloon volume. The antenna may include an elongated electrical conductor with a length based on a desired communication frequency. The antenna may be secured with load tape along the seam. The antenna may be included in an LTA balloon system that includes multiple balloons connected in tandem, such as a zero-pressure balloon (ZPB) and one or more variable air ballast super-pressure balloons (SPB).

摘要： Systems and devices for deceleration of vehicles, such as parafoils descending from high altitude balloons, upon impact with ground. A valve may be configured to release air from within an airbag upon impact of the airbag with ground. The valve may be a one way check valve. The valve may include an axially moveable valve body biased by a spring. An increase in pressure within the airbag due to ground impact overcomes the spring biasing force to move the valve body and release air from the airbag. The released air provides a controlled deceleration due to increased absorption of the impact forces by the deflating airbag. Portions of the valve may be additively manufactured. A valve housing may include flanges that clamp onto the airbag envelope. The valve may be low cost and single use, such that the valve is replaced with a new valve for the next flight.

摘要： Described herein are features for a high altitude lighter-than-air (LTA) system and associated methods. The LTA may include one or more super-pressure balloons (SPB). One or more of the SPB's may include one or more interior volumes. One or more of the interior volumes may be configured to receive an LTA gas therein to supplement the free lift of the LTA system. There may be an adjustable valve or vent to release the LTA gas. One or more of the interior volumes may be configured to receive ambient air to provide a variable downward force. The SPB may use a compressor to pump in ambient air. The compressor or another valve may release ambient air to decrease the downward force. A zero-pressure balloon (ZPB) may be attached with the one or more SPB's. The ZPB may supplement lift for the system.

摘要： A high altitude lighter-than-air (LTA) system can include a zero-pressure balloon (ZPB) attached in tandem with one or more variable ballast air super-pressure balloons (SPB). The ZPB provides lift for the system while the SPB uses a centrifugal compressor to provide a variable amount of ballast air by pumping in or expelling out ambient air. A solar array coupled with an elongated ladder assembly can be coupled to a payload support for a payload carried by the LTA system. Various advanced performance targets relating to ascent rate, descent rate, range and maximum altitude are achievable with various scaled versions of the basic design of the LTA system. Advanced navigation and control techniques, such as efficient high altitude station-keeping approaches, are made possible with the LTA system.
