The invention discloses an expandable modular thin shell structure for on-orbit assembly, and belongs to the technical field of truss structures for space on-orbit assembly, the expandable modular thin shell structure is formed by connecting six module units, and each module unit comprises a carbon fiber thin shell, a driving motor, a rotating shaft, a limiting cover, a connector and a shell; the adjacent module units are connected through an expandable carbon fiber thin shell to form an equilateral hexagonal truss structure; each module unit controls the unfolding length of the thin shell through a built-in motor, and the size of the hexagonal truss can be flexibly changed. The flexibility and the space utilization rate of the truss structure are improved, and the problems that a traditional truss structure needs a large carrying space and is difficult to assemble on orbit can be solved.
