A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
BOOM DEPLOYER
A boom deployer to deploy or retract a deformable boom includes a boom deployer frame. An integrated motor-spool assembly is translatably mounted in the boom deployer frame. At least one belt tensioning assembly is also translatably mounted in the boom deployer frame. The belt tensioning assembly tensions at least one recirculating belt which rolls over a roller of the belt tensioning assembly. The at least one recirculating belt is configured to roll over a rolled deformable boom, the deformable boom clamped to and rolled on the integrated motor-spool assembly. A boom deployer with a tensioned stationary belt is also described.
