Separable satellite propulsion system configuration

Abstract

The invention discloses a separable satellite propulsion system configuration. A propulsion system sends a satellite into a higher orbit and is separable from the satellite after the satellite entersan orbit, so that the problems of 'dead weight' of the satellite, reduction of the in-orbit position guarantee efficiency of the satellite and consumption of precious fuel resources of the satellite are solved. The invention provides the separable satellite propulsion system configuration which can be used for sending a satellite to a specified orbit. The separable satellite propulsion system configuration comprises a force bearing cylinder, a connecting and separating device and a boosting control structure; the force bearing cylinder is used for bearing the satellite; the connecting and separating device is arranged at the top end of the force bearing cylinder for connecting the satellite; and the boosting control structure is connected with the connecting and separating device and is used for propelling the satellite borne by the force bearing cylinder to a specified orbit and separating from the connecting and separating device to separate from the satellite after propelling the satellite to the specified orbit.

Description

Technical field[0001]The invention relates to the field of aerospace technology, in particular to a detachable satellite propulsion system configuration.Background technique[0002]There are two ways for satellites to orbit: one is to transport the satellite directly into the designated orbit, which has high requirements on the capacity and attitude and orbit control of the launch vehicle, and the launch cost is high; the other is to transport the satellite After entering the intermediate orbit, the satellite relies on its own propulsion system to enter the designated orbit. This method requires the satellite to be equipped with a separate propulsion system for orbit change. However, after the satellite enters orbit, the propulsion system will become "dumb and heavy", reducing the efficiency of the satellite's orbital position, and costing the satellite's valuable fuel resources, thus shortening the satellite's orbital life.[0003]To this end, a low-orbit launch vehicle with a lower co...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] The embodiment of the present invention provides a configuration of a detachable satellite propulsion system. The propulsion system sends the satellite into a higher orbit and after the satellite is in orbit, it can be separated from the satellite, so as to solve the "dullness" of the satellite and reduce the on-orbit position of the satellite. To ensure efficiency, the problem of consuming precious satellite fuel resources
