Gravity balancing mechanical arm of satellite antenna expanding mechanism of multi-dimensional structure

Abstract

The invention relates to a weight loss simulation device for ground testing of a satellite antenna expanding mechanism, particularly to a gravity balancing mechanical arm of a satellite antenna expanding mechanism of a multi-dimensional structure. The mechanical arm comprises an installation base, an antenna expanding following arm, a direction following assembly, an encoder, a Hooke's joint, an expansion driving motor, constant force adjustment devices, an X-axis suspension tool, a suspension point three-dimensional adjustment device, and an antenna suspension tool. The Hooke's joint is installed under the antenna expanding following arm and the direction following assembly. The encoder is installed at the hinge of the Hooke's joint. The constant force adjustment devices are installed under the Hooke's joint through suspension shafts and are connected with the X-axis suspension tool and the antenna suspension tool respectively by wire ropes. The X-axis suspension tool and the antenna suspension tool are used for connection with the X axis of the antenna expanding mechanism and an antenna respectively. The mechanical arm has many degrees of freedom and a reliable structure, is precise in pose following and force control, is safe in operation, and satisfies the need of weight loss simulation in ground testing of a satellite antenna expanding mechanism of a multi-dimensional structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a weightless simulation device for ground testing of a satellite antenna deployment mechanism, in particular to a multi-dimensional framed satellite antenna deployment mechanism gravity balance mechanical arm. Background technique [0002] In order to ensure the reliable deployment of the satellite antenna in orbit, the antenna deployment mechanism must be tested on the ground before the satellite is launched, which requires simulating the weightless state of the antenna deployment mechanism in space on the ground. At present, the domestic research on the multi-dimensional frame antenna deployment mechanism is in the stage of mathematical model simulation and three-dimensional analysis. There is no device that can simulate its weightlessness on the ground. There is an urgent need for a gravity balance mechanism corresponding to the multi-dimensional frame antenna deployment mechanism to meet the needs of the deployment mechanism...

Problems solved by technology

At present, the domestic research on the multi-dimensional frame antenna deployment mechanism is in the stage of mathematical model simulation and three-dimensional analysis. There is no device that can simulate its weightlessness on the ground. There is an urgent need for a gravity balance mechanism corresponding to the multi-dimensional frame antenna deployment mechanism to meet the needs of the deployment mechanism. Real-time gravity balance does not introduce additional moments, thereby providing a weightless environment for ground deployment tests
