Abstract

PURPOSE:To decrease the deviation in the relative positions and relative angles of the main mirror part and sub-mirror part by sunshine by using a carbon fiber-reinforced plastic material for the surface material of supporting posts for supporting the sub-mirror. CONSTITUTION:While an iron material is heretofore used for the sub-mirror supporting posts 3 of the sub-mirror part 2 for reflecting and condensing the radio waves coming from the main mirror part 1, these supporting posts are fixed by using the surface material made of the carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) having an elliptical pipe shape in section and a small coefft. of linear expansion. The difference in the elongation between three pieces of the supporting posts is decreased even if three pieces of the sub-mirror supporting posts are irradiated with the nonequual sunshine and the deviation in the relative positions and relative angles is decreased to about half the deviation of the conventional device by using the CFRP having the coefft. of linear expansion extremely smaller than the coefft. of thermal expansion of iron in such a manner.

[Industrial Field of Application J This invention relates to a secondary mirror support column that maintains the relative position and relative angle of a primary mirror portion and a secondary mirror portion of an antenna device. [Prior art J Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of an antenna device, and in the figure (1)
is a primary mirror part, (2) is a secondary mirror part, and (3) is a secondary mirror support column that maintains the relative position and relative angle relationship between the primary mirror part (1) and the secondary mirror part (2). There are usually three secondary mirror support columns (3). FIG. 5 is a sectional view of the secondary mirror support column, and in the figure (4) is an elliptical pipe made of an iron plate as the surface material of the secondary mirror support column. Next, the operation will be explained. Reflects radio waves and has a secondary mirror section (
2) a primary mirror unit (1) that focuses the beam toward the primary mirror unit (1);
By fixing the secondary mirror part (2), which reflects and focuses the radio waves further toward the next part, with three secondary mirror support columns (3) made of iron pipes with an elliptical cross section. , the relative position and relative angle of the primary mirror section (1) and the secondary mirror section (2) can be maintained. [Problem to be solved by the invention J] Conventional secondary mirror support columns are made of iron and have a large coefficient of linear expansion, so if the three secondary mirror support columns (3) are unevenly hit by sunlight, A problem arises in that there is a difference in elongation between the three secondary mirror support columns (3), which increases the relative position and relative angle deviation between the primary mirror part (1) and the secondary mirror part (2). there were. This invention was made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and by changing the material of the secondary mirror support pillars to one with a coefficient of linear expansion smaller than that of iron, the three secondary mirror support pillars (3)
By reducing the difference in elongation between the primary mirror section (1) and
The purpose is to reduce deviations in the relative positions and angles of the mirror and the secondary mirror section (2). [Means for Solving the Problems] The secondary mirror support column according to the present invention is made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic whose coefficient of linear expansion is about half that of iron. [Effect 1] Since the carbon fiber reinforced plastic used as the material for the secondary mirror support column in this invention has a coefficient of linear expansion about half that of iron, the elongation of the secondary mirror support column due to solar radiation is about half that of iron. [Example] In Figure 0, an example of the present invention will be described below with reference to Figure 1, (5) is CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic) as the surface material of the secondary mirror support column according to the present invention. A primary mirror unit (1) that reflects and focuses radio waves, and a primary mirror unit (1) that reflects and focuses radio waves.
) to further reflect and focus the radio waves coming from ) to the next part.
By fixing the secondary mirror with three steel secondary mirror support columns, the primary mirror part (1) and the secondary mirror part can be fixed more accurately than iron secondary mirror support columns even when there is a temperature difference between the secondary mirror support columns due to solar radiation. (
2) The relative position and relative angle can be maintained. Although the above example shows a case where the cross-sectional shape is an elliptical pipe, it is also possible to use a CFRP secondary mirror support column with a cross-sectional shape in which a honeycomb core (6) is fitted into an elliptical pipe as shown in Fig. 2. A primary mirror part (1) that reflects and focuses radio waves toward a secondary mirror part (2), and a secondary mirror part that reflects and focuses radio waves coming from the primary mirror part (1) further toward the next part. (2)
By fixing it with three secondary mirror support pillars made of CFRP with a low coefficient of linear expansion and having a honeycomb core (6) fitted into a vibrator with an elliptical cross section, the space between each secondary mirror support pillar is fixed by solar radiation. Even when there is a temperature difference between the primary mirror part (1) and the secondary mirror part (2), it is more accurate than a steel secondary mirror support column.
The relative position and relative angle of can be maintained. According to FIG. 2, the deformation of the elliptical cross-sectional shape due to the wind is less than that in FIG. 1, and the decrease in rigidity of the secondary mirror support column due to the wind can be suppressed. 2) In addition, in the above embodiment, the cross-sectional shape is an oval pipe shape, but as shown in FIG.
A secondary mirror support column made of P may also be used, which reflects radio waves and supports the secondary mirror part (2
) and the secondary mirror part (2) which reflects and focuses the radio waves coming from the primary mirror part (1) towards the next part. By fixing the secondary mirror with three filled-shaped CFRP support pillars with a low coefficient of linear expansion, even if there is a temperature difference between the secondary mirror support pillars due to solar radiation, it will be more stable than the iron secondary mirror support pillars. Both the primary mirror part (1) and the secondary mirror part (2) have good accuracy.
The relative position and relative angle of can be maintained. According to FIG. 3, the deformation of the elliptical cross-sectional shape due to the wind is less than that in FIG. 1, and the decrease in rigidity of the secondary mirror support column due to the wind can be suppressed.
