In order to further increase the height of energy flight, for example, in the stratosphere region of 15 km or more, the chamber filled with gas must be designed to have a variable volume and shape, and thus it is difficult to attach the solar cell to the surface over a large area, and therefore, the storage capacity is insufficient, and long-term travel is not possible, and the practicability and applicability are limited.
Therefore, how to design a flying boat capable of flying to a higher height and improving practicability and applicability is an urgent problem to be solved in the industry at present.

Detailed Description
The invention is further illustrated with reference to the following figures and examples.
Referring to fig. 1 to 3, a flying boat 100 of the present invention is a dual-cabin structure, which includes a flight cabin 10, a connecting structure 20, and a lift cabin 30. The flight chamber 10 and the lift chamber 30 together form the double-chamber structure. The flight chamber 10 includes a fixture 16. The fixing device 16 is fixedly arranged on the flight chamber 10, the connecting structure 20 is detachably connected to the flight chamber 10 through the fixing device 16, and the lift chamber 30 is arranged on the connecting structure 20 and above the flight chamber 10.
The lift chamber 30 is a variable volume balloon whose outer shape is not fixed, and in this embodiment, is filled with a mass of hydrogen. When the flying vessel 100 of the present invention is at a low altitude, such as sea level or ground, the lift cabin 30 can provide additional buoyancy to the flight cabin 10 to assist the flight cabin 10 to ascend, and during the ascent of the flying vessel 100, as shown in fig. 2, the volume of the lift cabin 30 is expanded to continuously provide buoyancy. When the vessel 10 is raised to a predetermined height, such as stratosphere, the securing device 16 is activated and the connecting structure 20 and the lift module 30 can be disconnected from the flight module 10. The fixing device 16 can be actuated to separate the connecting structure 20 and the lift cabin 30 from the flight cabin 10 in various ways, such as mechanically or electrically, for example, the fixing device 16 is a buckle 161, the buckle 161 has a notch 162, the connecting structure 20 is a rope, the connecting structure 20 is first tied to the buckle 161, and when the flying boat 10 ascends to the predetermined height, the buckle 161 rotates to separate the connecting structure 20 from the flight cabin 10 through the notch 162.
Referring to fig. 3 and 4, the flight deck 10 is an outer frame structure, and includes an outer deck 11, an inner deck 12, an outer frame 13, a solar cell 14, and a power equipment room 15. The outer chamber 11 has a fixed shape, i.e., the volume of the outer chamber does not change during the ascending process, and an accommodating space 111 is formed inside the outer chamber. The inner chamber 12 is arranged in the outer chamber 11 and is composed of a plurality of air bags with the capacity capable of being changed due to the change of the atmospheric pressure, and helium gas with certain mass is filled in the air bags; the uniform arrangement of a plurality of air bags in the outer chamber 11 is used for balancing helium distribution in the outer chamber 11; referring to fig. 4, at a low altitude, the volume of the inner chamber 12 is smaller, and the volume ratio of the inner chamber 12 to the outer chamber 11 is, for example, 10%, at this time, the buoyancy of the flight chamber 10 is small and insufficient, so that the lift chamber 30 is required as an auxiliary buoyancy source to continuously ascend. When the vessel 100 is raised to a predetermined height, as shown in fig. 5, the volume of the inner chamber 12 is expanded due to the reduction of the atmospheric pressure, and the volume ratio of the inner chamber 12 to the outer chamber 11 is, for example, 90%, and the inner chamber 12 can provide the buoyancy required for the flight chamber 10 to float and support the weight of the flight chamber 10, so that the connecting structure 20 and the lift chamber 30 can be separated.
The outer frame 13 is disposed outside the outer compartment 11, and can enhance the strength of the outer compartment 11. In this embodiment, the outer frame 13 is a plurality of hollow tubular structures, such as circular pipes, which are distributed around the outer chamber 11, and power lines or control lines can be arranged inside the circular pipes due to the hollow structure. The solar cell 14 is arranged above the outer cabin 11, and because the shape of the outer cabin 11 is kept fixed, the solar cell 14 can be laid above the outer cabin 11 in a large area, and a large amount of electric power can be stored in the flying boat 100 of the invention by matching with a proper energy storage device (not shown in the attached drawing), so that the long-time operation in the air is facilitated, and the applicability and the practicability of the flying boat 100 are greatly improved. The power lines and control lines of the solar cells 14 may be provided in the hollow circular tube of the outer frame 13.
The power plant compartment 15 is provided below the outer compartment 11. The power equipment room 15 is an installation machine room for relevant equipment for controlling, storing energy, supplying power, propelling, steering, flying and the like of the flying boat 100. In terms of energy storage, the power equipment chamber 15 is provided with an energy storage device (not shown in the drawings), and the energy storage device is electrically connected with the solar cell 14. In controlling the direction of the flying boat 100, as shown in fig. 6 and 7, the power equipment room 15 includes a left centrifugal fan 1511, a left air inlet 1512, a right centrifugal fan 1521, a right air inlet 1522, and a common air outlet 153. The left centrifugal fan 1511 and the right centrifugal fan 1521 are disposed on the left and right sides, respectively. The front of the left centrifugal fan 1511 and the front of the right centrifugal fan 1521 are respectively provided with a left air inlet 1512 and a right air inlet 1522. And a common air outlet 153 is arranged behind the left centrifugal fan 1511 and the right centrifugal fan 1521. Air enters the left centrifugal fan 1511 and the right centrifugal fan 1521 from the left air inlet 1512 and the right air inlet 1522, respectively, and the left centrifugal fan 1511 and the right centrifugal fan 1521 rotate in opposite directions, for example, as shown in fig. 6, the left centrifugal fan 1511 rotates in a clockwise direction and the right centrifugal fan 1521 rotates in a counterclockwise direction. When the flying boat 100 does not need to turn, the rotating speeds of the left centrifugal fan 1511 and the right centrifugal fan 1521 are the same; when the flying boat 100 needs to turn, the rotation speeds of the left centrifugal fan 1511 and the right centrifugal fan 1521 are different, so that the flying boat 100 can obtain reverse torques in different directions to change the flying direction of the flying boat 100.
Through the two-cabin design, when the ground is at a low height, the flight cabin is lifted off by providing auxiliary buoyancy through the lift cabin, and the inner cabin of the flight cabin filled with gas enables the whole flying boat to be lifted to a stratosphere.
