この発明は人工衛星に搭載され、収納時におけるパネル
間の衝突をふせぐようにした展開構造物に関するもので
ある。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a deployable structure that is mounted on an artificial satellite and is designed to prevent collisions between panels during storage.

(5)は人工衛星本体である。A conventional deployable structure of this type is shown in FIG. In the figure (11 is the panel, (2) is the deployment hinge, (3) is the deployment prevention device, (4) is the spacer,
(5) is the satellite itself.

2), is attached to the satellite body, and the spacer (4) is sandwiched between the panels, and the deployment prevention device (3) is attached to the satellite body.
) is housed in the side wall of the satellite.
人工衛星が軌道上に達した後、展開防止装置(3)を解
放することにより展開ヒンジ(2)に設けた展開ばねの
ばね力によりパネル(1)が展開し、第1図(b)の形
態をとるものである。After the satellite reaches orbit, by releasing the deployment prevention device (3), the panel (1) is deployed by the spring force of the deployment spring provided on the deployment hinge (2), and the panel (1) is deployed as shown in Figure 1 (b). It takes a form.
従来の展開構造物は以上のように構成されているため、
展開後にもスペーサー(4)がパネル面上に残ってしま
うため、スペーサ−(4)をパネル端に配置していた。Since conventional deployable structures are configured as described above,
Since the spacer (4) remains on the panel surface even after deployment, the spacer (4) was placed at the edge of the panel.
ところが打上げ時の振動により各パネル(1)が互いに
衝突し、パネル面上に損傷を与えるという欠点があった
。However, there was a drawback in that the panels (1) collided with each other due to vibrations during launch, causing damage to the panel surfaces.
この発明はこの欠点を改善するためになされたもので、
パネルに一端がパネル端に固定され、数本のパネル幅の
スペーサーを取り付けた2枚の板ばねを取り付けること
によシバネル間の衝突をふせぎ、かつ展開後にパネル面
上にスペーサーが残らないようにした展開構造物を提供
するものである。This invention was made to improve this drawback.
By attaching two leaf springs to the panel, one end of which is fixed to the panel edge and several panel-width spacers attached, we prevent collisions between the panels and prevent spacers from remaining on the panel surface after deployment. The purpose of this invention is to provide a deployable structure.
以下この発明の一実施例を図によって説明する。An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
第2図(a)において(1)はパネル、(2)は展開ヒ

5) is the satellite body, and (6) is a spiral leaf spring.
展開防止機構(3)を解放することによりパネルは展開
し、スペーサー(4)は渦巻き型板ばね(6)によシ巻
き取られ、第2図(b)の形態をとるものである。By releasing the deployment prevention mechanism (3), the panel is deployed, and the spacer (4) is wound up by the spiral leaf spring (6), taking the form shown in FIG. 2(b).
第8図により、スペーサー(4)と渦巻き型板ば、(6

ーサ(4)は渦巻き型板ばね(6)でつながれ。FIG. 3(a) shows the state before the panel is unfolded. The spacer (4) is connected by a spiral leaf spring (6).
パネル間に平行に並んでいる。渦巻き型板ばね(6)は
一端がパネル端に固定されている。The panels are arranged parallel to each other. One end of the spiral leaf spring (6) is fixed to the panel edge.
第8図(b)に示すように、パネルの展開により渦巻き
型板ばね(6)は元の形に戻りはじめる。As shown in FIG. 8(b), the spiral leaf spring (6) begins to return to its original shape as the panel unfolds.
最終的に第8図(c)に示すように、渦巻き型板ばね(

構造物の機能にも影響を与えないという効果がある。Finally, as shown in Figure 8(c), a spiral leaf spring (
6) has such a structure in which the spacer (4) is wound around the outside of the panel, thereby preventing collision between the panels during storage and preventing damage to the panel surface. Furthermore, since the spacer is removed from the panel surface after deployment, it has the effect of not affecting the functionality of the deployment structure.

。In a deployable structure that is made up of multiple flat panels and is folded into a folding screen shape when stored and performs its function when unfolded, one end of the panel is folded to prevent collisions between the panels when folded. A spacer of the same width as the plurality of above-mentioned panels connected by two spiral-shaped leaf springs fixed at the ends is sandwiched between the panels, and the panels are made so that the above-mentioned leaf springs return to their original spiral shape during the unfolding process of the panel. An artificial satellite-mounted deployable structure characterized in that the spacer is also removed from the panel surface by being rolled up at the end.
