SLIDING TYPE FAIRING HEAD REMOVING DEVICE AND SLIDING TYPE FAIRING HEAD REMOVING METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sliding type fairing head removing device and a sliding fairing head removing method that facilitate design, machining, and assembling, easily maintain rigidity by a simple structure, do not require to adjust and control the variation of the separating power of a spring or the like, and eliminate the need for avoiding a fairing 1 by maneuvering a machine body.;SOLUTION: A rocket having a space for housing a load 3 for discharging a load into an outer space includes a fairing 1 forming a housing space for housing the load 3 that covers a tip of a rocket body, and a plurality of slide rails provided between the fairing 1 and the load 3. Only one of the slide rails is longer than other slide rails. The fairing 1 slides along the slide rails and rotates around a terminal end of the slide rail longer than the other slide rails so as to release a head.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
