DEVICE FOR LAYING ELECTRICAL POWER AND INTERFACE CABLES OF SYSTEM FOR MOVING NUCLEAR POWER PLANT AWAY FROM SPACECRAFT Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC B64G1/42 

FIELD: space technology.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to power equipment of spacecrafts (hereinafter – SC), namely to large-sized transformed farms for laying and arranging electrical cables connecting SC to a nuclear power plant (hereinafter – NPP). The farm contains lower and upper adapters and includes a standard section in the form of a doubled two-lever amplifier mechanism as a base element. A frame with diagonal overlaps is placed in the base of the standard section, combining adjacent sections, with side folded (inward) frames at two opposite faces with built-in sliders and with diagonal frames. On side folded frames, pads are fixed for fixation of cables laid in a loop shape. A pantograph mechanism with a ball-screw transmission is used for arranging and folding the farm.

EFFECT: creation between SC and NPP of a rigid structure of an unfolded farm with the possibility of laying the maximum number of cables with permissible bending radii.
