Abstract

The invention relates to the field of the protective structures of spacecrafts, and discloses a lightweight filled composite protective structure for space debris, comprising a first layer of protective screen which is a corrugated board, a second layer of protective screen which is a corrugated board/density gradient metal foam; and spacing is left among the first layer of protective screen, the second layer of protective screen and a stiffener structure. The first layer of protective screen is in a corrugated shape, and the corrugated protective screen can effectively decompose debris cloud produced when the space debris with different incident angles collide with the protective structure at high speed, so that the damage energy is scattered. The corrugated surface plate of the second layer of protective screen decomposes the debris cloud again produced when the space debris collide with the first layer of protective structure, and a density gradient metal foam filling layer can further crush and melt the hit space debris, reduce the speed of the cloud debris, and minimize the damage to the external structure of a spacecraft and a sub-system.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the field of space debris protection, in particular to the field of a lightweight filled high-performance space debris composite protection structure. Background technique: [0002] In order to meet the needs of the International Space Station to protect space debris, the aerospace structures of countries such as the United States, Russia, the European Space Agency, and Japan have developed protective materials and structures with different properties. my country is implementing the third phase of the space manned project, which not only has higher requirements for the protective performance of the space debris protective structure, but also has strict restrictions on the quality of the protective structure. This requires the development of a space debris protection structure that is lightweight and has excellent protection performance. The most important physical feature that threatens the safety of spacecraft is the mechani...
