Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention generally relates to the field of on-orbit space maintenance, and in particular to a low-gravity unloading device for measuring hand-transmitted vibration during on-orbit maintenance. Background Art
[0002] Power tools for on-orbit maintenance are one of the core tools astronauts use to perform on-orbit assembly, repair, and maintenance of the space station. They are essential for the precise and efficient assembly and disassembly of extravehicular equipment. Hand-transmitted vibrations are generated by the tool's operation during use, transmitted through the tool itself and pressurized spacesuit gloves to the astronaut's fingers, palms, arms, and shoulders. These vibrations must not affect or harm astronauts during extravehicular activities.
[0003] Hand-transmitted vibration exposure is a key performance indicator for on-orbit space maintenance power tools. To ensure the safety and health of astronauts, clear performance control requirements have been established for the design of hand-transmitted vibration for on-orbit space maintenance power tools. Astronauts may use on-orbit space maintenance power tools to remove and install anti-loosening screws approximately 100 to 200 times during a single extravehicular mission, with the total time spent operating the tools during a single extravehicular mission being approximately 0.5 to 1 hour. The hand-transmitted vibration performance of on-orbit space maintenance power tools has a significant impact on whether astronauts can safely and smoothly complete their extravehicular missions.
[0004] When astronauts conduct extravehicular activities, the hand-transmitted vibration of space on-orbit maintenance power tools can easily cause astronauts to feel uncomfortable or even tired. In addition, due to the combined effects of low-orbit microgravity, thermal cycles, extravehicular spacesuits and other factors, astronauts' muscle movement ability and fine operation ability are reduced to varying degrees. The exposure to hand-transmitted vibration is an important performance indicator of space on-orbit maintenance power tools. It is directly related to the success or failure of on-orbit maintenance activities, and even affects the health and on-orbit safety of astronauts.
[0005] Accurate ground-based simulation of hand-transmitted vibration exposure for on-orbit space maintenance power tools is a key testing item in the development of these tools. These tools operate in the extravehicular environment of low-Earth orbit, operated by astronauts wearing spacesuits. Measuring hand-transmitted vibration for on-orbit maintenance power tools requires ground-based simulation of their on-orbit operating conditions. Microgravity significantly impacts on-orbit vibration, so a low-gravity unloading device is required for on-orbit maintenance hand-transmitted vibration measurement. Summary of the Invention
[0006] Accurate ground-based working condition simulation and measurement of hand-transmitted vibration exposure values of on-orbit maintenance power tools in space are key testing items in the development of the tools.
