Title:
FOLDING TYPE TRUSS STRUCTURE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS63280000
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A deployable truss structure desirable for space applications is disclosed. The structure is comprised of a plurality of frame units joined together, each frame unit comprised of rod members that form a triangular frame. Four such frame units, together with four hinged batten members, define a cube. The frame units collapse on each other during the transition to the stowed condition. Such a construction eliminates member strain during deployment, giving greater freedom in selecting member size.
