A three-configuration folding and unfolding mechanism inspired by folded paper comprises an auxiliary unfolding unit and a folding and unfolding unit. The mechanism can be unfolded into a two-dimensional plane structure from a quasi-one-dimensional linear structure and then unfolded into a three-dimensional structure from the two-dimensional plane structure, the folding and unfolding ratio is large, a large-volume enveloping space can be formed after unfolding, meanwhile, the mechanism has the characteristics of a folding and unfolding mechanism and a metamorphic mechanism, movement of all joints is controlled through a servo motor, automatic unfolding and folding can be achieved, and the mechanism is suitable for large-scale popularization and application. The device has a great application prospect in the aviation field and can be applied to a planet transport vehicle structure.
一种受折纸启发的三构态折展机构,组成元件包括辅助展开单元和折展单元。该机构可从类一维线性结构展开为二维平面结构,再由二维平面结构展开为三维立体结构,折展比大,展开后可形成大容积包络空间,同时具有折展机构、变胞机构的特性,通过伺服电机控制各关节的运动,可以实现自动化展开和折叠,对航空领域有非常大的应用前景,可应用于星球运输车结构。
