Buoyancy system for an aircraft comprising roll stabilization means
The invention relates to a buoyancy system, intended to be connected to a structure of an aircraft comprising roll stabilization means comprising at least one floating mat, intended to be deployed on a water surface to reduce a rolling motion of the aircraft.
1 . A buoyancy system to be connected to a structure of an aircraft, the buoyancy system comprising roll stabilization means comprising at least one floating mat to be deployed on a water surface to reduce a rolling motion of the aircraft;
wherein the floating mat has a flexibility so as to allow the floating mat to follow a shape of the water surface.
2 . The buoyancy system according to claim 1 , wherein the stabilization means comprise at least one inflatable raft and wherein the floating mat is at least one constituent element of the raft.
3 . The buoyancy system according to claim 1 , wherein the floating mat is associated with at least one float of the buoyancy system.
4 . The buoyancy system according to claim 3 , wherein the floating mat is disposed on a distal side of the float.
5 . An aircraft equipped with a buoyancy system according to claim 1 .
6 . A buoyancy system to be connected to a structure of an aircraft, the buoyancy system comprising roll stabilization means comprising at least one floating mat to be deployed on a water surface to reduce a rolling motion of the aircraft;
wherein the floating mat is equipped with drag means intended to allow an increase in a drag force relative to the water.
7 . The buoyancy system according to claim 6 , wherein the drag means comprise at least one water pocket and/or a floating anchor.
8 . An aircraft equipped with a buoyancy system according to claim 6 .
