The embodiment of the invention provides a stacked satellite assembly which comprises a plurality of stacked satellites with the same outer envelope and an inter-satellite connecting device. The inter-satellite connecting device comprises a butt joint ring and an aramid fiber rope; the aramid fiber rope penetrates through the butt joint ring installed on the two rows of satellites which are placed in the staggered and stacked mode, and the two rows of satellites which are placed in the staggered and stacked mode are connected and pressed tightly through the pre-tightening force of the aramid fiber rope. According to the stacked satellite assembly structure, the number of satellites carried by a rocket during one-time launching can be greatly increased, rapid unlocking and separation among multiple satellites can be achieved, so that the batch cluster satellite launching capacity is improved.
本申请实施例提出一种堆叠式卫星组合体,包括:多个外包络相同的堆叠式卫星,和星间连接装置;所述星间连接装置包括对接环和芳纶纤维绳;所述芳纶纤维绳穿过安装在所述两列交错堆叠放置的卫星上的对接环,依靠所述芳纶纤维绳的预紧力将所述两列交错堆叠放置的卫星连接压紧。本申请提出的堆叠式卫星组合体结构,可大幅提升火箭一次发射所携带卫星的数量,并能够实现多星间的快速解锁分离,从而提升批量集群卫星发射能力。
