Embodiment 1

[0041] The invention discloses a flexible solar battery array for space. A storage box with better rigidity is used to fold up the flexible array, a constraint release mechanism is used to apply a pressing force, and the pressing force is evenly applied to the gathered flexible solar cell array through the storage box and buffer foam. On the array, the flexible array maintains a certain fundamental frequency in the transmitting section to meet the requirements of overload and other mechanical environments.

[0042] Such as figure 1 and figure 2 , in this embodiment, the flexible solar cell array for space includes: an upper storage box 1 , a restraint release mechanism 2 , a buffer foam 3 , a flexible array 7 and a lower storage box 8 . Among them, the upper storage box 1 and the lower storage box 8 are docked and installed; the flexible array 7 is arranged between the upper storage box 1 and the lower storage box 8; between the flexible array 7 and the upper storage box 1, ...

Embodiment 2

[0055] On the basis of the above-described embodiments, a compression test, a friction test, and the like of the battery circuit 5 and the inter-board cable 6 will be described.

[0056] Such as Figure 5 , the battery circuit 5 and the inter-board cable 6 pasted on the flexible substrate 4 are pressed face to face, and a pressing force F is applied. After pressing, the appearance and electrical properties of the battery circuit 5 and the inter-board cable 6 are checked; the right figure is a schematic diagram of the friction test. The battery circuit 5 and the inter-board cable 6 pasted on the flexible substrate 4 are pressed face-to-face, and a pressing force F is applied, and the compressed battery circuit 5 and the inter-board cable 6 are mechanically moved to produce a relative movement V, and the battery is inspected after rubbing against each other. The appearance and electrical performance of the circuit 5 and the inter-board cable 6. Among them, through the joint act...

Abstract

The invention discloses a flexible solar battery array for space, comprising: an upper storage box, a restraint release mechanism, a buffer foam, a flexible array and a lower storage box; the upper storage box and the lower storage box are docked and installed; the flexible array is arranged on the upper storage box Between the storage box and the lower storage box; between the flexible array and the upper storage box, and between the flexible array and the lower storage box are respectively provided with buffer foam; the restraint release mechanism is connected with the upper storage box and the lower storage box respectively, through the lock hook and the hinge The locking ring constrains the upper storage box and the lower storage box together, compresses the flexible array, and forms a complete flexible solar cell array for space. The present invention adopts motor-driven overall pressing to ensure the safety of battery circuits and inter-board cables, and has thin folded thickness, small folded volume and large expandable area.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cell arrays, in particular to a flexible solar cell array for space. Background technique [0002] Rigid and semi-rigid solar cell arrays used in domestic spacecraft all use gaps between the cells to avoid collisions between the cells by maintaining the rigidity of the substrate. Solar cell arrays cannot meet the requirements of large-area and high-power use of spacecraft. Contents of the invention [0003] The technical problem of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the existing technology and provide a flexible solar cell array for space, which adopts the motor-driven integral compression to ensure the safety of the battery circuit and the cables between the panels, and is thin in thickness and small in volume. Large expandable area. [0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention discloses a flexible solar cell array for space, including: an...
