Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of satellite array assembly transportation technology, and more specifically, to a satellite array assembly vertical transfer device and transfer method. Background Technology
[0002] After the satellite-aircraft fairing assembly is completed, it needs to be transported to the rocket docking station in a vertical position for docking. Given the large size of the fairing assembly, the transport operation places high demands on attitude control, support positioning, and operational stability. The ground transport process, as a crucial ground support step before rocket launch, requires a dedicated transport device to carry the fairing assembly between sites, providing the necessary conditions for precise docking of the fairing with the rocket.
[0003] Existing publication number CN110371452A discloses a dual-purpose (road-rail) launch tube-launcher-satellite integrated transport device, which includes a transport bracket. The transport bracket is equipped with a front support and a rear support for mounting the launch tube. One end of the transport bracket is equipped with a satellite insulation chamber. This dual-purpose (road-rail) launch tube-launcher-satellite integrated transport device enables the complete transport of the launch tube-launcher-satellite assembly to the launch site. Only the launch tube-launcher-satellite assembly needs to be hoisted to the launch area, eliminating the need for further docking and assembly of the rocket, satellite, and fairing. This significantly reduces dependence on the launch site and effectively saves launch preparation time and procedures. In the process of developing this application, the inventors discovered the following problems with the existing technology:
[0004] The existing satellite fairing assembly is transported by air-conditioned truck towing flatbed truck. The supporting temperature control pipeline can only supply air uniformly as a whole, which is difficult to adapt to the temperature control requirements of different altitude sections of the fairing. The temperature control accuracy of each zone is poor, and the temperature and humidity are prone to be inconsistent in different places inside the compartment, which affects the stability of the storage environment of the internal components of the fairing.
[0005] Therefore, a vertical transfer device and transfer method for a star-shaped array assembly are proposed to address the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, this application provides a vertical transfer device for a star-shaped array assembly to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: a vertical transfer device for a satellite array assembly, comprising a transfer vehicle body, a vehicle body support platform, and an air conditioning mechanism. The transfer vehicle body is equipped with an oil-pneumatic suspension system with hydraulic lifting function. A retractable cable reel is provided at the bottom front end of the transfer vehicle body for connecting to external mains power. A driver's cab is provided at the front end of the transfer vehicle body, and a vehicle driving control system is integrated inside the driver's cab. A control cabin is provided on one side of the driver's cab, and an air conditioning control unit is integrated and installed in the control cabin for real-time detection and adjustment of the air conditioning mechanism's operating parameters.
[0008] The transfer vehicle body is fixedly connected to a vehicle body support platform in the middle, and the star cover assembly body to be transferred is fixedly installed on the top of the vehicle body support platform by bolts; multiple sets of support components are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the vehicle body support platform; an installation box is fixedly installed at the rear end of the vehicle body support platform, and an air conditioning mechanism is installed inside the installation box. The air conditioning mechanism is sealed and connected to the star cover assembly body at different heights through ventilation pipes.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the device can be continuously powered by an external mains power supply. In conjunction with the air conditioning mechanism installed in the installation box, through multiple ventilation ducts, it can perform zoned temperature control and air supply to the compartments at different heights of the satellite array, so that the temperature and humidity environment inside the satellite array can be maintained in accordance with the requirements. In conjunction with the air conditioning control unit in the control compartment, the parameters can be adjusted in real time to meet the environmental control requirements during the transfer of the satellite array.
[0010] Preferably, the support assembly includes a fixed base, a T-shaped lead screw, a locking handwheel, and an anti-slip support plate; the fixed base is fixed to the side wall of the vehicle body support platform, the T-shaped lead screw is vertically inserted through the middle of the fixed base, the locking handwheel is fixed to the outer wall of the T-shaped lead screw, and the anti-slip support plate is fixed to the bottom end of the T-shaped lead screw; and rotating the locking handwheel can drive the T-shaped lead screw to rise and fall, so that the anti-slip support plate presses against the ground.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, during the parking and positioning process of the transfer vehicle body, the anti-slip support plate can be pressed down to the ground by rotating the locking handwheel, which provides auxiliary support for the vehicle body support platform, improves the stability of the star cover assembly body during parking, avoids stress deformation of the oil and gas suspension under long-term load, and can also help adjust the level of the vehicle body support platform to ensure that the star cover assembly body always maintains a vertical posture.
[0012] Preferably, the rear end of the vehicle body support platform is hinged with multiple folding foot pedals; when the transfer vehicle body is in motion, the folding foot pedals are folded upwards and retracted, and the surface of the folding foot pedals has multiple anti-slip textures and drainage grooves.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the unfolded folding foot pedals can be used for personnel to get on and off the vehicle platform, making it convenient for operators to inspect the star cover assembly before and after transportation. At the same time, the anti-slip texture and drainage grooves can improve the stability of stepping and prevent personnel from slipping in rainy or snowy weather, thus ensuring operational safety.
[0014] Preferably, the ventilation duct includes an air inlet duct, a first-stage ventilation duct, a second-stage ventilation duct, and a return air duct; one end of the air inlet duct is connected to the air conditioning mechanism, and the other end is connected to the first-stage ventilation duct; the first-stage ventilation duct and the second-stage ventilation duct are respectively sealed and connected to the duct interfaces at corresponding heights of the satellite array body, for supplying air to different height sections of the satellite array body; the two ends of the return air duct are respectively connected to the air conditioning mechanism and the lower part of the satellite array body, forming a circulating temperature-controlled air duct.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, and through the circulation duct formed by zoned air supply and return air, it is possible to ensure that the temperature and humidity of different height compartments inside the stellar enclosure are kept within the required range. This avoids temperature and humidity deviations in the upper and lower areas inside the stellar enclosure caused by single-port air supply due to the high height of the stellar enclosure, improves temperature control accuracy, and meets the environmental stability requirements of the internal components of the stellar enclosure.
[0016] Preferably, a fixed tower is installed on the top surface of the mounting box, and a multi-section operating tower is erected above the fixed tower; the top of the multi-section operating tower is equipped with detachable protective railings; the first-section ventilation duct and the second-section ventilation duct are arranged in layers along the multi-section operating tower.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solutions, the multi-section operating tower can provide operators with a high-altitude operating platform, facilitating the installation, connection, and daily inspection and maintenance of the ventilation duct interfaces on the upper part of the star array assembly. The detachable guardrails can provide safety protection for personnel working at heights. At the same time, the ventilation ducts are fixed in layers along the multi-section operating tower, which can play a role in the orderly and fixed function of the ventilation ducts, preventing the ventilation ducts from shaking and loosening during transportation, and ensuring the sealing stability of the air supply passage.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the electric drive box can centrally distribute the mains power, provide stable power output to each functional module of the device, and ensure the stable operation of each system.
[0022] Preferably, the vehicle driving control system inside the driver's cabin and the air conditioning control unit inside the control cabin are two independent control systems; the vehicle driving control system independently controls the forward, turning and reversing movements of the transport vehicle, and the air conditioning control unit independently controls the temperature, air volume and zoned air supply parameters of the air conditioning system.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the two independent control systems can avoid mutual interference in functional control. During vehicle operation, the air conditioning control personnel can independently adjust the temperature control parameters without interfering with the driver's driving operation, thereby improving the overall reliability and safety of the device.

[0025] S. Parking and Leveling: After the transfer vehicle body moves to the designated work station, turn the locking handwheel to drive the T-shaped screw to extend downwards, which will cause the anti-slip support plate to press against the ground. Through multiple sets of support components, the vehicle body platform is leveled and the star cover assembly body is kept in a vertical position.
[0026] S. Pipeline connection: Pull out the cable reel and connect it to the mains power. The power is uniformly distributed by the electric drive box. The operator climbs to the multi-section operating tower via folding foot pedals and anti-slip ladders. Seal and connect the first and second ventilation pipes to the pipe interfaces at the corresponding heights of the star array body. The two ends of the return air pipe are connected to the air conditioning mechanism and the lower part of the star array body respectively.
[0027] S. Zoned Temperature Control Start-up: The air conditioning mechanism is activated. The fan drives the air through the heater and humidifier to achieve temperature and humidity regulation. The air is then distributed through the intake duct to the first and second ventilation ducts, and sent to different height compartments of the satellite assembly. The return air duct returns the air inside the satellite assembly to the air conditioning mechanism to form a circulating air duct. Temperature control sensors in each compartment collect temperature data in real time and feed it back to the air conditioning control unit in the control compartment. The air conditioning control unit dynamically adjusts the heating power of the heater and the fan speed according to preset standards to achieve independent temperature control in each zone.
[0028] S. Transfer and transportation: The vehicle driving control system in the driver's cab controls the driving of the transfer vehicle.

[0029] S. Vehicle Retraction and Departure: After docking is completed, turn off the air conditioning system, disconnect the ventilation duct connection, retract the cable reel, reverse the locking handwheel to retract the anti-slip support plate, fold and retract the folding foot pedal, and drive away from the transfer vehicle.
[0030] The technical effects and advantages of this application are as follows:
[0031] 1. Compared with the prior art, the vertical transfer device and method for the satellite array assembly, through the air conditioning mechanism and the zoned ventilation ducts, can perform zoned temperature control and air supply for compartments at different heights of the satellite array assembly. With the real-time feedback data from temperature control sensors arranged in multiple locations, the air conditioning control unit independently adjusts the operating parameters to maintain the required temperature and humidity environment in each location inside the satellite array assembly, thus meeting the environmental control requirements of the internal components during the transfer of the satellite array assembly.
[0032] 2. Compared with existing technologies, this vertical transfer device and method for a satellite array assembly provides workers with a multi-stage operating tower and detachable guardrails, facilitating the connection, installation, inspection, and maintenance of the pipe interfaces on the upper part of the satellite array assembly. Simultaneously, the ventilation pipes are fixedly arranged in layers along the tower, ensuring their regularity and preventing them from shaking or loosening during transfer, thus guaranteeing the sealing stability of the air supply path. Furthermore, the addition of anti-slip ladders connecting folding footboards and the multi-stage operating tower provides a stable passage for workers, and the anti-slip structure enhances the safety of working at heights.
[0033] 3. Compared with the prior art, the vertical transfer device and method for the star-shaped hood assembly can provide auxiliary support to the vehicle body platform when it is parked and aligned by setting up multiple sets of support components, thereby improving the stability of the star-shaped hood assembly during the parking process, avoiding stress deformation of the oil and gas suspension under long-term load, and also helping to adjust the level of the vehicle body platform to ensure that the star-shaped hood assembly always maintains a vertical transfer posture.

[0043] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0044] Example 1
[0045] As attached Figures 1 to 8 The vertical transfer device for a star-shaped array assembly shown includes a transfer vehicle body 1, a vehicle body support platform 3, and an air conditioning mechanism 8. The transfer vehicle body 1 is equipped with an oil-pneumatic suspension system with hydraulic lifting function. A retractable cable reel is provided at the bottom front end of the transfer vehicle body 1 for connecting to external mains power. A driver's cab 2 is provided at the front end of the transfer vehicle body 1. The driver's cab 2 integrates a vehicle driving control system. A control compartment 201 is provided on one side of the driver's cab 2. An air conditioning control unit is integrated in the control compartment 201 for real-time detection and adjustment of the operating parameters of the air conditioning mechanism 8.
[0046] The main body 1 of the transport vehicle is fixedly connected to the vehicle body support platform 3 in the middle. The star cover assembly body 4 to be transported is fixedly installed on the top of the vehicle body support platform 3 by bolts. Multiple sets of support components 5 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the vehicle body support platform 3. An installation box 7 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the vehicle body support platform 3. An air conditioning mechanism 8 is installed inside the installation box 7. The air conditioning mechanism 8 is sealed and connected to the star cover assembly body 4 at different heights through ventilation pipes.
[0047] The system features a flexible lifting and tilting mechanism for the vehicle body 1, equipped with an oil-gas suspension. Before operation, a bottom cable reel is connected to the mains power supply for continuous operation. The driving and environmental control functions are set up independently in separate zones. The vehicle body support platform 3 supports the star cover assembly 4, which, together with the rear integrated air conditioning mechanism 8, achieves layered constant temperature air supply throughout the transportation process. The support component 5 is used for parking and limiting to stabilize the vehicle's posture. Multiple support components 5 provide auxiliary support and limit for the vehicle body support platform 3. During parking and transportation operations, the support components 5 can share the load between the vehicle body support platform 3 and the vehicle body 1, reducing the load on the oil-gas suspension system of the vehicle body and preventing deformation damage to the vehicle body 1 due to long-term pressure.
[0048] Example 2
[0049] Based on Example 1, the solution in Example 1 will be further described in detail below with reference to the specific working method, such as... Figures 1 to 8 As shown below, see details:
[0050] As a preferred implementation, during parking operations, the T-shaped screw 502 is driven to extend vertically by rotating the locking handwheel 503, which in turn drives the bottom anti-slip support plate 504 to conform to the ground for adaptive leveling. The symmetrical arrangement of multiple support components 5 allows for balanced force distribution at multiple points, offsetting the slight tilt of the vehicle body caused by the difference in ground level. The self-locking performance of the support structure ensures stable parking posture and effectively prevents the attitude deviation of the star cover assembly body 4 during transportation.
[0051] As a preferred embodiment, the folding foot pedal 6 adopts a hinged movable structure, which retracts upward when the vehicle is in motion and unfolds downward to provide foot support when working at height. The surface of the pedal has anti-slip texture and drainage grooves, which can maintain foot stability in rainy or dusty conditions.
[0052] As a preferred implementation, the air conditioning system 8 uses multi-stage pipeline linkage to coordinate and distribute airflow through the intake duct 801, and then supplies air to different height compartments of the satellite cover through a first ventilation duct 802 and a second ventilation duct 803, and then returns the air to the return duct 804 to form a closed-loop air duct. The layered air supply can be specifically adapted to the different temperature control needs of the upper and lower compartments of the satellite cover. The air duct circulation is smooth and without dead corners, effectively ensuring that the overall temperature field of the satellite cover is uniform and stable, and avoiding damage to precision components due to local temperature differences.
[0053] In a preferred embodiment, the fixed tower 10 provides rigid support to the multi-section operating tower 11. The two-section ventilation ducts, arranged in layers, are positioned and controlled by the tower, and together with the detachable top guardrail 12, form a closed-loop protective working space. The layered structure of the tower is adapted to the different pipe connection points at different heights of the ductwork, and the pipes are arranged in a neat and orderly manner, making them less prone to shaking or displacement. This effectively improves the efficiency of high-altitude pipe connection and comprehensively ensures the safety of operators working at height.
[0054] As a preferred embodiment, the anti-slip ladder 13 is vertically arranged, with the lower end connecting the vehicle support platform 3 and the folding foot pedal 6, and the upper end connecting to the multi-section operating tower 11, forming a continuous passageway for the high-altitude work platform, which facilitates operators to climb back and forth to carry out pipeline installation, maintenance and dismantling operations.
[0055] As a preferred implementation, the electric drive box 9 centrally integrates the vehicle's electrical control circuit and establishes electrical connections with the vehicle body 1's walking system, air conditioning mechanism 8, and dual control system, respectively. It unifies and coordinates the vehicle's power distribution and electrical signal transmission, realizing coordinated power supply and independent power control for walking operation and environmental regulation, effectively improving the stability of equipment operation, and facilitating subsequent electrical fault diagnosis and equipment maintenance.
[0056] As a preferred implementation, the vehicle driving control system and the air conditioning control unit adopt a dual-system independent architecture. The driving control system exclusively manages the vehicle's movement, steering and reversing displacement, while the air conditioning control unit is solely responsible for temperature and airflow parameter regulation. The two systems operate independently with no interference in their signals, power supply and programs, effectively ensuring the continuous stability of the satellite cover's environmental parameters during transport and movement, and improving the reliability of equipment operation.
[0057] As a preferred implementation, the air conditioning system 8 relies on temperature control sensors deployed throughout the entire area to collect temperature data of each compartment of the satellite cover in real time and dynamically feed it back to the air conditioning control unit. It can automatically adjust the operating power of the heater and fan according to the set temperature, adapt to the temperature control requirements of different compartments, realize stable closed-loop control of the temperature field, and ensure that the satellite cover assembly is always in a temperature and humidity environment that meets the requirements throughout the entire transportation process.
[0058] The transshipment method includes the following steps:
[0059] S1. Parking and leveling: After the transfer vehicle body 1 travels to the designated work station, turn the locking handwheel 503 to drive the T-shaped screw 502 to extend downwards, which in turn drives the anti-slip support plate 504 to press against the ground. Through the symmetrical leveling of multiple sets of support components 5, the vehicle body support platform 3 is kept horizontal and the star cover combination body 4 is kept vertical.
[0060] S2, Pipeline Connection: Pull out the cable reel and connect it to the mains power. The power is uniformly distributed by the electric drive box 9. The operator climbs to the multi-section operating tower 11 via the folding foot pedal 6 and the anti-slip ladder 13. The first ventilation pipe 802 and the second ventilation pipe 803 are respectively sealed and connected to the pipe interface at the corresponding height of the star hood assembly body 4. The two ends of the return air pipe 804 are respectively connected to the air conditioning mechanism 8 and the lower part of the star hood assembly body 4.
[0061] S3. Zoned Temperature Control Start-up: The air conditioning mechanism 8 is started. The fan drives the air through the heater and humidifier to complete the temperature and humidity regulation. After the air is regulated by the heater and humidifier, it is diverted through the air inlet duct 801 to the first ventilation duct 802 and the second ventilation duct 803, respectively, and sent to different height compartments of the satellite array body 4. The return air duct 804 returns the air inside the satellite array body 4 to the air conditioning mechanism 8 to form a circulating air duct. The temperature control sensors of each compartment collect temperature data in real time and feed it back to the air conditioning control unit in the control room 201. The air conditioning control unit dynamically adjusts the heating power of the heater and the speed of the fan according to the preset standard to realize independent temperature control of each zone.
[0062] S4. Transfer and transport: The vehicle driving control system in the driver's cab 2 controls the driving of the transfer vehicle body 1. The air conditioning control unit independently maintains the internal temperature and humidity environment of the star cover assembly body 4. The two systems do not interfere with each other.
[0063] S5. Vehicle Retrieval and Departure: After docking is completed, turn off the air conditioning mechanism 8, disconnect the ventilation pipe connection, retract the cable reel, reverse the locking handwheel 503 to retract the anti-slip support plate 504, fold and retract the folding foot pedal 6, and the transfer vehicle body 1 drives away.
[0064] The working process of this application is as follows: First, the operator controls the vehicle's forward movement, steering, and reversing through the vehicle driving control system in the driver's cab 2, transporting the entire device carrying the star-shaped array body 4 to the designated docking station. After the vehicle stops, the operator turns the locking handwheel 503, causing the T-shaped screw 502 to extend downwards, which in turn causes the anti-slip support plate 504 to press against the ground. Multiple sets of support components 5 work together to complete multi-point leveling support of the entire vehicle, reducing the impact of vehicle tilt caused by uneven ground. The retractable cable reel at the front of the transport vehicle body 1 pulls out the cable to connect to the mains power, and the electric drive box 9 uniformly distributes power to all equipment in the vehicle. The operator lowers the folding foot pedal 6 and climbs up the anti-slip ladder 13 to the multi-section operating tower 11 to complete the sealed docking of the first ventilation duct 802, the second ventilation duct 803, and the interfaces at different heights of the star-shaped array body 4.
[0065] After the piping is connected, the air conditioning mechanism 8 is activated to perform closed-loop temperature control. The internal fan of the air conditioner drives continuous air circulation. The airflow passes through the heater and humidifier to achieve temperature and humidity regulation. After passing through the air inlet duct 801, it is distributed to the first ventilation duct 802 and the second ventilation duct 803 arranged in layers, and then sent to different compartments on the upper and lower parts of the satellite enclosure assembly 4 to achieve independent air supply to different areas. Temperature control sensors installed in each compartment of the satellite enclosure collect internal temperature data in real time and transmit the monitoring signals to the air conditioning control unit in the control room 201. The air conditioning control unit dynamically adjusts the heating power of the heater and the operating speed of the fan according to preset standards. The return air duct 804 returns the internal air of the satellite enclosure to the air conditioning mechanism 8 to form a complete circulation air duct, so that the internal temperature and humidity of the satellite enclosure remain stable throughout the transportation process, protecting the internal precision components from environmental changes.
[0066] During the vehicle transfer process, the vehicle driving control system and the air conditioning control unit operate independently, and the transfer movement will not interfere with the constant temperature and humidity regulation of the air conditioning. After the satellite array assembly 4 completes the rocket body docking operation, the staff shuts off the air conditioning mechanism 8, removes all ventilation duct connection structures at the multi-section operation tower 11, and retracts the external power cable of the cable reel. By turning the locking handwheel 503 in the reverse direction, the anti-slip support plate 504 is retracted upwards, the support component 5 is retracted, and the folding foot pedal 6 is folded upwards to reduce the space occupied by the vehicle. The transfer vehicle 1 can then drive away from the work site normally. The above describes the working principle of this satellite array assembly vertical transfer device and transfer method.
