Novel manned lunar vehicle chassis

Abstract

The invention provides a novel manned lunar vehicle chassis which comprises a bottom plate and a plurality of wheels. The wheels are honeycomb elastic tires, each wheel is provided with an advancing drive mechanism and a steering drive mechanism, the wheels are arranged on the two sides of the bottom plate through an integrated suspension, the integrated suspension comprises an upper elastic arm, a lower elastic arm and a damper, one end of the upper elastic arm and one end of the lower elastic arm are connected to the side faces of the bottom plate, and the other end of the upper elastic arm and the other end of the lower elastic arm are connected to the middle positions of the wheels, and the upper elastic arm is located on the lower elastic arm. The damper is located between the upper elastic arm and the lower elastic arm, one end of the damper is connected with the bottom plate, and the other end of the damper is connected with the wheels. The novel manned lunar vehicle chassis has good bearing and shock reducing performance, and based on meeting the requirement for lunar surface touring and detection, the novel manned lunar vehicle chassis is lower in weight, compacter in structure, more concentrated in function, better in comfortableness, and smaller in folding space.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of lunar vehicle design, in particular to a chassis of a novel manned lunar vehicle. Background technique [0002] The manned lunar rover is an indispensable means of transportation for human beings to land on the moon. At present, the only manned lunar vehicles that have been successfully launched are the LRVs carried by Apollo 15, 16, and 17 in the United States. The chassis of the LRV manned lunar vehicles adopts a three-stage folding type, and adopts the Ackerman steering method of traditional vehicles , due to the improper design of the LRV chassis structure, when the car is driving on a steep slope or a cross slope, the lunar rover is prone to bumps and vibrations, which makes the astronauts feel very uncomfortable; in addition, the existing manned lunar rover still has There are problems such as that the chassis structure is not compact, and it takes up a lot of space during transportation and storag...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In order to solve the problems of uncompact chassis structure, poor shock absorption effect and uncomfortable riding in the prior art, the present invention provides a new type of chassis for manned lunar vehicles, which includes a base plate, several wheels and a driving wheel arranged on the wheels. mechanism, the wheels are installed on both sides of the bottom plate through an integral suspension; wherein,
