Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

According to the news of CTOnews.com on November 2, the news network of Tsinghua University recently displayed the development plan of the manned lunar rover led by Tsinghua University, which was selected into the preliminary list of the development plan of the manned lunar rover issued by the China manned Space Engineering Office on October 25.

Tsinghua University has started the development of manned lunar rover since 2017, and the team has formed the current development plan after many rounds of production and adjustment. According to reports, this scheme integrates Chinese civilization and traditional culture into the design of the lunar rover, based on engineering technology and humanistic ideas as a breakthrough.

"Wangshu" is a goddess who drives for the moon in ancient Chinese legend, and it is also borrowed to refer to the moon, while "Wangshu" is a means of transportation in ancient China. "Wangshu" is inspired by the key elements of bronze chariots and horses unearthed from the Qin Shihuang Mausoleum, with a pair of large-scale wheels highlighting the key features of "Yan" and a circular vault cover to highlight the magnificence and dignity of the car.

The display bracket of the lunar rover adopts the shape of "reins", implying that the astronauts driving the lunar rover are "practitioners of manned lunar exploration," and the six-wheel independent drive of the rover means that six horses pull "bang". In order to give the astronauts the highest courtesy according to Chinese traditional etiquette.

In addition, in order to highlight the breadth and depth of Chinese culture and the depth of Chinese philosophy, the wheel hub of the lunar rover uses the shape of "Lai's Taiji map".

In terms of function, the roof canopy of "Wangshu Zhiyi" provides a structure for laying solar arrays, the body provides the necessary anti-rollover support for the convertible, and the rear has a larger platform for scientific instruments and devices. and collected lunar specimens.

The design team applies the satellite attitude control idea to the driving control of the lunar rover, which can solve the driving control problem after the failure of some wheels of the lunar rover. In addition, the design team has also developed a hybrid enhanced driving technology for manned lunar rovers, realizing three modes of manual driving, autonomous driving and man-machine mixed driving, which not only provide driving fun for astronauts, but also provide a guarantee for safe driving and autonomous return to the lunar lander under special circumstances.

In order to solve the problem of limited wrist and finger movement of astronauts wearing lunar spacesuits and to improve driving reliability, the design team specially designed a joystick that can decouple forward, backward, steering and braking movements in their hands. and give it mouse function. The joystick is placed in the middle of the two astronauts so that the control functions can be transferred at any time.

CTOnews.com previously reported that in May this year, the China manned Space Engineering Office issued a "notice on soliciting development plans for manned lunar rovers" to solicit plans for the development of manned lunar rovers for the whole society.

To the announcement deadline, a total of more than 40 units formed 14 joint teams submitted the plan. After formal examination A total of 11 projects led by China Aerospace Science and Technology Group, China Aerospace Science and Technology Group, Aerospace Science and Technology Intelligent Robot Co., Ltd., Aerospace Planning and Design Group Co., Ltd., Tsinghua University, Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Shanghai Jiaotong Technology (Suzhou) Co., Ltd., Shanghai Longchuang Automobile Co., Ltd., Guangdong Jiateng Technology Co., Ltd.
