Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to an extraterrestrial vehicle for spaceflight, in particular to a traveling system of a planetary wheel type planetary vehicle. Background technique
[0002] The current extraterrestrial exploration vehicles mostly use the multi-wheel side-by-side rocker suspension mechanism as the main configuration of the walking system. For example, the "lunar vehicle 1" launched by the Soviet Union adopted a parallel 8-wheel structure with unilateral double rocker suspension. The Mars rovers "Sojourney" and "Opportunity" launched by the United States adopted a 3-wheel rocker suspension structure developed from a 2-wheel rocker suspension on one side. But this kind of suspension is far from enough to pass through the complex environment unknown to the alien body. At the end of April 2005, the US "Opportunity" Mars rover was immobilized due to driving on a 30-centimeter-high sand pile, and was trapped for a month.
