SPACECRAFT

摘要

FIELD: aircraft engineering.SUBSTANCE: spacecraft comprises airframe 1 and panel of solar batteries 6 secured at frame 2 shaped to rod-type frame structure shaped to skewed pyramid. Pyramid base 3 is articulated with spacecraft airframe 1 by brackets 5. Said base in initial position is locked by pyro means 4. Pyramid vertex 7 in working position interacts with latch (pos. B) rigidly secured at spacecraft airframe 1. Frame structure 2 and its fasteners feature higher stiffness. This allows increase in frequency and decrease in amplitude of solar battery panels oscillations caused by programmed turns of spacecraft and other manoeuvres.EFFECT: higher reliability, longer life.4 dwg
