Benefits of technology

This patented technology improves upon existing systems used in space solar energy stations (SSS). It allows multiple solar cells arranged together without being connected directly or indirectly via other components like motors. Additionally, it eliminated the use of an expensive electrical connector at one end instead relying solely on gravitational force. Overall, this innovation makes SSS more efficient while maintaining their performance over time.

Problems solved by technology

This patents discuss various issues related to space solar generators, particularly their designing and manufacturing process. These include complexities associated with each unit's own components like batteries, sensitivity to temperature variations, and lack of efficient cooling methods. Additionally, there may exist concerns over potential future expansion scenarios where conventional terrestrial electricity generation becomes unstable during periods when multiple units generate excess electromagnetic force from light pulsations caused by natural phenomena such as tides and atmospheric pollution. Therefore, these factors pose significant obstacles to developing sustainable solutions for space solar cells.

Abstract

The invention provides a non-condensing space solar power station, which comprises a solar cell array, a power station main structure, a microwave transmitting antenna, sun sensors, control computers, and conductive rotary joints, wherein the solar cell array comprises multiple independent solar cell sub arrays, and each solar cell sub array is provided with multiple solar cell sub array modules; each solar cell sub array is supported in a rotating mode on the power station main structure via the conductive rotary joints arranged at two sides of each solar cell sub array, and together with the sun sensor arranged on each solar cell sub array and the corresponding control computer, positioning towards the sun can be realized. According to the non-condensing space solar power station, relative movement between the solar cell array and the transmitting antenna can be realized, the conductive power of each conductive rotary joint can be greatly reduced, the problem that the most important conductive rotary joint in the traditional spacecraft design fails can be avoided, failure of the single solar cell sub array does not influence operation of the entire system, modular maintenance can be carried out conveniently, and the main technical problems of the space solar power station system can be solved.
