Two-dimensional tensegrity structure unit based on hexagon geometry
The present invention discloses a two-dimensional tensegrity structure unit based on the hexagon geometry. The unit comprises six hinged joints, six draglines and three pressing rods, wherein the six hinged joints are disposed on six vertexes of a two-dimensional hexagon, the three pressing rods are arranged at three diagonal lines inside the hexagon, two ends of the pressing rods are connected with the three groups of opposed vertexes of the hexagon, and the six draglines intersect to form a hexagram. A pre-tension force exists in all the draglines while a pre-compression exists in all the pressing rods, and the structure unit is a self-balancing cable-bar structure system, has an excellent structural stiffness, and has a good application prospect in a pre-stressed cable-bar structure system.
