Abstract

PURPOSE:To keep attitude constant without using a jet or others by laying attitude adjusting devices for an artificial satellite, etc., which are equivalently changed in the opposite direction with a satellite mainframe changed at three degrees of freedom, between the satellite mainframe and directional equipment such as a communication antenna. CONSTITUTION:An artificial satellite mainframe 2 and directional equipment such as a solar battery paddle 3 and a communication antenna 4 are joined together with attitude adjusting devices 5 with a degree of freedom of three or more. The attitude adjusting devices 5 are equivalently associated in an opposite direction with a change in the attitude of the artificial satellite mainframe 2 as a result of the movement of manipulator end load 7 by a manipulator 6, then to keep the attitude of the solar battery paddle 3 and the communication antenna 4 constant.

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 2 is a schematic assembly diagram of a conventional artificial satellite. Reference numeral 11 is an artificial satellite, 2 is a satellite body, and 3 and 4 are solar cell paddles and communication antennas, which are directional devices. The solar cell paddle 3 and the communication antenna 4 are connected to the satellite body 2 by a connecting rod 8 having one or two degrees of freedom. When the attitude of the satellite body 2 changes, for example, when the manipulator tip load 7 is moved by the manipulator 6, it is impossible to keep the attitude of the solar cell paddle 3 and the communication antenna 4 constant only by the connecting rod 8, and separately. The attitude of the satellite body 2 is maintained constant by installing attitude control equipment or operating the jet jet.
