Design of a Novel Cargo-Loader for Spacecraft Container

摘要

To meet the requirement of loading/unloading large-sized spacecraft containers with IL-76 aircraft, a novel cargo-loader was designed in the study. The cargo-loader including shunt mechanism and electric control system not only could moves all-around, but also be adjusted attitudes automatically. The operation efficiency and the operational risks were greatly improved owing to the automatic alignment function. Moreover, it has great potential application in other large-sized cargos during air transportation.
