<p>A system for removably mounting a thermal insulation blanket to a structure such as a launch vehicle exterior surface, includes a blanket formed of a layer of batting with a substantially rigid frame positioned against one side, and a cover (preferably fabric) surrounding the batting layer. The cover holds the frame in place on the surface of the batting. Preferably, the blanket is quilted. For space launch applications, the batting, cover, and quilting thread are ceramic fiber materials suitable for high temperature use. Fasteners are mounted on the frame and extend outward from the cover. Corresponding mating fasteners are mounted on the structure in an arrangement so as to be positioned to engage with the fasteners extending from the blanket cover. A flat or curved blanket can be provided with a frame material that can be shaped to the desired curve.</p> |
