Kinematics Modeling and Driving Spring Design of Truss Structure for Deployable Truss Antenna

Article Preview

Abstract:

To design a truss structure of deployable truss antenna with 7 modules and ensure that the truss structure can be deployed successfully in space environment, kinematics equation of single module with homogeneous coordinate transformation method is built based on the structure and deployment principle of truss structure. By using dynamics software ADAMS, simulation analysis on the deployment is carried out and the driving force of single module is obtained in the ground condition. On this basis, driving spring is designed, and all the important design parameters are obtained. The analytical results show that the driving spring can meet the requirement of deployment in the ground condition. So it can be deployed in orbit (0G). This method can be taken as the theoretical basis for the design and deployment experiment of truss structure.
