 note = {In the tethered-type solar power satellite, a large panel structure for the power generation and transmission is adopted. A huge number of actuators are required to deploy the large panel in orbit. In our research, a deployment mechanism using coils of shape memory alloy (SMA) has been studied. When the SMA coil is heated by applying an electric current, it works to deploy the folded panels if the coil has a memory for rotation. This mechanism has several advantages as: (1) Simple and light-weight as compared with motor activation, (2) Deployment speed is well controlled to minimize the effect on the attitude of the system during deployment and to suppress the shock when the panel is fully deployed, (3) The shape of the unfolded panels can be controlled using two types of SMA coils (this function can be used to compensate the thermal deformation of the panels), and (4) The oscillation of the panels can be suppressed by heating the SMA coils to the super-elastic state. We have fabricated the hinges containing the SMA coils as shown in this report and integrated them to a test panel composed of 4 x 8 sub-panels. The size of the sub-panel is 12 x 24 cm. The test model is equipped with a latch mechanism using the permanent magnet. In the laboratory test, it is confirmed that the hinge with the SMA coils work well as expected, but it is found that the life of the SMA coils is unexpectedly limited by the metal fatigue. Further study is required to redesign the SMA coils to eliminate the fatigue effect., 資料番号: AA0049120012},
