A lunar soil collection device and a simulated collection device

Abstract

The invention relates to a lunar soil collecting device. The lunar soil collecting device comprises a gas adjusting and measuring module, a lunar soil collecting, excavating and conveying module, as well as a data collecting and controlling module, wherein the gas adjusting and measuring module is respectively connected with the data collecting and controlling module and the lunar soil collecting, excavating and conveying module, and used for receiving the control of the data collecting and controlling module so as to carry out gas distribution on the lunar soil collecting, excavating and conveying module, and the lunar soil collecting, excavating and conveying module is used for excavating, transporting and collecting lunar soil. The lunar soil collecting device can be used for realizing the collection of the lunar soil by utilizing the high efficiency brought about by the rapid volume expansion of a compressed gas in a high vacuum environment, meanwhile by matching the gas adjusting and measuring module with the data collecting and controlling module, the pressure, flow, frequency and duration of the gas can be accurately measured and controlled so as to provide power for the lunar soil collecting, excavating and conveying module according to the excavation requirements, and the lunar soil collecting device has the advantages of easiness in operation, high degree of automation, good repeatability and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of lunar soil collection and excavation in lunar exploration projects, and relates to a pneumatic collection, excavation and transportation lunar soil collection device and a lunar soil simulation collection device. Background technique [0002] At present, the second wave of lunar exploration is going on all over the world. Countries such as Europe, Russia, Japan, India and China have successively announced their own plans to land on the moon. my country is currently in the second phase of the "Chang'e Project" lunar exploration program, that is, the "circling the moon phase". The focus of work is still focused on breakthroughs in key technologies for orbiting the moon, soft landing on the moon, and automatic inspection and survey technologies. The third phase in the future will mainly complete the task of drilling and sampling the lunar surface and returning to the earth. The entire Chang'e project is planned to be...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Due to the limited capacity of the launch vehicle, conventional equipment is generally small in size and low in efficiency, and it is difficult to overcome the problems of strong adsorption and high friction of the lunar soil, and it is prone to mechanical failures

In the early development stage of the moon, before the lunar resources were fully utilized to synthesize explosives, there were great technical and economic difficulties in using explosives transported from the earth.

Although the drilling method can obtain a certain depth of lunar soil, its efficiency is very limited and cannot be applied to large-scale collection, excavation and transportation.
