Embodiment

[0088] Figures 1 to 5 Indicates the components and required materials used to manufacture the drag sail mechanism. figure 1 Shown is the appearance of a space subsystem containing different sized drag sail mechanisms for space fabrication for debris removal, including: mechanism container 1, auxiliary subsystem and raw material container 2, mechanism container cover 3, mechanism container cover track, and 4. Mechanism container cover. Among them, 4. The mechanism container cover is kept closed during the tug sail manufacturing process, and it is opened to release the tow sail, 3. The mechanism container cover track is used as a guide for the attachment device of the tow sail.

[0089] figure 2 Shown is the appearance of the subsystem without the mechanism container cover. figure 2 Reveals the appearance of the mechanism used to manufacture different sizes of dragged sails in space for the removal of debris by compaction. Circumference A shows an enlarged view of the tow...

Abstract

The invention relates to a space manufacturing mechanism of towing sails of different sizes for removing space debris, and belongs to the technical field of space manufacturing of towing sails for removing the space debris. The space manufacturing mechanism comprises two parts of a space subsystem and a method for capturing target debris and releasing the towing sails. The space subsystem comprises a mechanical container, an auxiliary subsystem and raw material container, wherein the mechanical container further comprises a towing sail manufacturing facility; the auxiliary subsystem and raw material container is used for operating subsystems required by the mechanical facilities and materials required for manufacturing the towing sails; the mechanical container comprises two L-shaped support structures, two cylindrical rods, two extruders, two compactors, two conveying arms and the towing sails; and the auxiliary subsystem and raw material container comprises laminated rollers used for manufacturing resistance sails of different sizes, and also comprises other subsystems and units required for operating the mechanism, such as a power unit and a thermal control subsystem. The mechanism provided by the invention allows several towing sails to be automatically manufactured in the space and can be changed as needed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a space manufacturing mechanism for towing sails of different sizes for space debris removal, and belongs to the field of space manufacturing and the technical field of space manufacturing of towed orbits for space debris removal. Background technique [0002] All spacecraft sent into space have a finite active lifetime, after which spacecraft and satellites become useless and accumulate in space, increasing the amount of debris. Unless they are dismantled or burned up in the atmosphere, spacecraft and satellites remain in their orbits, and as the amount of debris increases, collisions between them become likely to create more debris, and this phenomenon will become more and more common. [0003] Currently, there are several ways to deorbit a spacecraft at the end of its life. The aim of all methods is to reduce the perigee altitude to a level sufficiently aerodynamic to re-enter orbit, at which point the aerodynamic heating ...
