Abstract

The invention discloses a quick-release end actuator for a space mechanical arm, and belongs to the technical field of space detection. The quick-release end actuator comprises an end actuating mechanism and a target adapter. The end actuating mechanism is driven by the space mechanical arm with a visual guiding function into the tolerance range of the target adapter mounted on a target object, completes capturing and locking actions on the target adapter, and provides a power source for the target object at the same time; and when the end actuating mechanism executes the release action, the locking action continues to be executed, and release is achieved in the form of striding over a movement dead point. According to the quick-release end actuator for the space mechanical arm, capturing, locking and instant rapid-release of the target object where the adapter is mounted are achieved at the same through the power source, and meanwhile, the power source can be provided for the target object with a mechanism function, so that an operating function can be achieved by the captured and locked target object.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a quick-release end effector of a space manipulator, which is installed at the end of the manipulator, and can realize capture, locking and quick release of a target object equipped with a target adapter, and belongs to the technical field of space detection. Background technique [0002] The end effector is installed at the end of the space manipulator, follows the manipulator to approach the captured target, and captures and locks the target at a captureable position. At present, the actuators that have been successfully launched and applied to the end of the robotic arm include the end effector of the International Space Station Robotic Arm (SSRMS) and the end of the SPDM, etc., all of which do not have the function of quick release. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a quick-release end effector for a space manipulator, which can follow the manipulator to approach the target...
