Abstract

In this paper, a pawl composite linkage transfer mechanism is designed for the automatic in-orbit sample transfer mission of Chang’E-5 lunar sample return mission, which can realize the sample container in-orbit transfer under various critical constraints such as lightweight, miniaturization, and narrow working space. Resistance during the whole process as well as the sensitive factors that affect the resistance during the sample container transfer process are investigated and designed. The sample container transfer process has been verified by the test system on the ground, indicating that the design can satisfy the requirements of the sample transfer mission. The developed transfer mechanism completed the Chang’E-5 sample return mission successfully with good consistency between space and ground, verifying the correctness and effectiveness of the design.

为嫦娥五号月球样品返回任务设计在轨样品容器传输机制

本文针对嫦娥五号月球样品返回任务的在轨样品自动转移任务，设计了一种棘爪复合连杆转移机构，可在轻量化、小型化、工作空间狭窄等各种关键约束条件下实现样品容器的在轨转移。研究并设计了样品容器转移过程中整个过程的阻力以及影响阻力的敏感因素。地面测试系统对样品容器转移过程进行了验证，表明该设计能够满足样品转移任务的要求。所开发的转移机构成功完成了嫦娥五号样品返回任务，在空间和地面之间具有良好的一致性，验证了设计的正确性和有效性。
