Description

One-arrow-multi-satellite separation system and method for releasing satellites one by one
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of satellite launching, and particularly relates to an arrow multi-satellite separation system and method capable of releasing satellites one by one.
Background
In recent years, with the continuous development of the low-orbit broadband internet technology, the construction of a low-orbit constellation system gradually becomes a research focus in the aerospace field. These constellations often require hundreds or even tens of thousands. Aiming at the emission requirement of satellites of the order of magnitude, one arrow and multiple satellites become an important way for reducing the constellation construction cost. The multiple satellites can be sent into space by one rocket, so that the carrying efficiency is remarkably improved, and the launching cost is reduced.
Currently, common one-arrow-multiple-star approaches include: multi-star dispenser and stacked.
A multi-star dispenser is a multi-star dispenser in which a plurality of satellites are mounted to a central carrier or other form of multi-star dispenser. This approach has the following drawbacks: 1. the multi-satellite distributor type central bearing barrel needs to bear the weight of a plurality of satellites, has higher strength and rigidity and correspondingly larger volume and weight, so that the available envelope and weight of the satellites are greatly reduced. 2. The problem of the multiple satellite dispenser, which requires a separate unlocking signal for each satellite, is that the number of satellites that a rocket can carry is directly limited by the large amount of electrical interface resources that are required for carrying. 3. Each satellite of the multi-satellite distributor needs a whole set of separation unlocking devices, and the use of initiating explosive devices in each set of unlocking devices can increase the carrying cost and the ground test cost.
The stacked type multi-satellite distributor is characterized in that a plurality of satellites are stacked and distributed in the fairing, a multi-satellite distributor with large volume and large weight is omitted, the space utilization rate in the fairing is improved, and the following defects exist in the traditional stacked type: 1. by adopting the traditional stacking type of releasing satellites one by one, each satellite also needs to have a separate unlocking signal and a fire-division unlocking device, so that the problems II and III of the multi-satellite distributor are also existed; meanwhile, because satellites are directly stacked, a central bearing cylinder and the like do not penetrate through the upper and lower structures, the unlocking signal cable is difficult to find a layout fixed position, and the cable wiring difficulty is high. 2. The stacking type satellite unlocking and releasing all satellites at one time is adopted to avoid the problems, but the satellites released by the same layer have the risk of extremely collision with each other in the separation process, and the problem greatly limits the layout quantity of the satellites of the same layer, so that the existing stacking type satellite unlocking and releasing device is mainly stacked up and down, the layout quantity of the satellites in the same layer is extremely small, and single satellites or double satellites are usually used as the main satellites; meanwhile, even if a single-layer single-star stacking mode is adopted, satellites stacked one above the other can collide with each other due to spin after being separated on the premise of carrying at a certain angular velocity.

Example 2: based on embodiment 1, four auxiliary pulleys are arranged on the side face of the last star body 1 of each layer, two auxiliary pulleys are arranged on the top face, the locking pin 5 of the last star body 1 of the same layer is connected with the Kevlar rope 6 and then connected with the star body 1 of the last layer, the locking pin 5 of the last star body 1 of the uppermost layer is connected with the pin puller 7, namely, the pin puller 7 is only arranged on the star body 1 installed last in the uppermost layer, the effect that all satellites are released one by one layer after one unlocking can be realized in the mode that:
The first step: the first, second, third and fourth steps of the assembly mode in the embodiment 1 are referred to complete the installation and fixation of all star bodies 1 in one layer; when the fourth step is performed, the last star body 1 of the layer is locked without the use of the pin puller 7, and is still locked with the use of the locking pin 5.
And a second step of: six pulleys 4 are additionally arranged on the side face and the top of the last star body 1 arranged at the bottom layer, as shown by the broken line in the figure 21, the first star body 1 at the upper layer is arranged at the top, one end of a Kevlar pull rope 6 is connected to a locking pin 5 of the last star body 1 at the lower layer, the other end of the Kevlar pull rope passes through the middle four auxiliary pulleys 4 and is connected to the pulley 4 at the bottom end of the last star body 1, and the Kevlar pull rope 6 is wound on the surface of the pulley wheel body 4-1 by rotating the pulley 4 so as to straighten the rest part of the Kevlar pull rope 6, namely, the installation and fixation of the last star body 1 at the bottom layer are completed.
And a third step of: referring to the assembly step of embodiment 1 and the assembly step of this embodiment, the assembly of the remaining satellite bodies 1 is completed, and one of all the satellite bodies 1 which is finally installed is locked by the two pin extractors 7, and the installed satellite group is shown in fig. 22.
The separation mode of this embodiment is: the single layer satellite release process was consistent with that described in example 1; in the release process of the last star body 1 of the layer, the star body 1 flies upwards, the tension force of the Kevlar rope 6 preferentially releases the part wound on the surface of the pulley wheel body 4-1, when the winding part of the Kevlar rope 6 is released, the star body 1 continues to fly upwards to pull out the locking pin 5 connected with the tail end of the Kevlar rope 6 from the pin hole, as shown in fig. 23, and at the moment, the first star body 1 at the lower layer is unlocked and separated and released; and the unlocking and releasing of all the satellite bodies 1 are sequentially and circularly performed in a reciprocating way, so that the effect of releasing all satellites layer by layer at one time is achieved.
In this embodiment, the length of the kev rope 6 connected to the same layer of the star body 1 is preferably about twice the height of the star body 1, and the length of the kev rope 6 connected to the upper and lower layers of the star body 1 is preferably about three times the height of the star body 1, and in the upward flight process of one star body 1, since the kev rope 6 preferentially releases the part wound on the surface of the pulley wheel body 4-1, when the locking pin 5 is pulled out to release the next star body 1, the previous star body 1 is far away from the satellite group, thereby forming the effect of releasing satellites one by one, and the satellites released adjacently cannot collide in the separation process.
