DEVICE FOR LOADING TRANSFER-LAUNCHING CONTAINER IN SPACECRAFT LAUNCHER

摘要

FIELD: transport.;SUBSTANCE: device for loading the transfer-launching container into the spacecraft launcher incorporates tow pairs of vertical guide elements attached to the bearing coupled with the spacecraft. The pairs of the aforesaid elements are in a mirror positional relationship relative to the vertical plane crossing the transfer-launching container lengthwise axis, given the container optimum position at the said launcher. In loading the transfer-launching container, every guide element interacts with the appropriate hoop. The guide elements of each said pair, open on the top end face side, are spaced apart in height. The lower guide element interacts with the said container rear hoop, while the upper guide element interacts with the mating front hoop. The upper guide element length is smaller than that of the lower guide element that feature a widened top end face.;EFFECT: reduced rocking tolerances in loading the launcher.;4 cl, 5 dwg
