In order to reduce the load mass and solve the problem that the aluminum alloy optical cover plate of exoplanet imaging coronagraph was easy to deform, based on the equal generation design method, this paper designed and determined the configuration of the carbon fiber optical cover plate. Through the simulation of layup by finite element analysis,this paper researched the influence of different layering angles and sequences on the stiffness of optical cover plate. Finally, the carbon fiber layup method was determined as [15/-75/-15/75]s. The dynamic response analysis show that all the indexes satisfy the system requirements, and verify the feasibility of carbon fiber optical cover plate.
In order to realize multi-spectral imaging of space coronagraph, a compact filter wheel mechanism is designed. The filters with different spectral transmittance can be cut into the optical path at different times by this mechanism. Because the image contrast of space coronagraph is very high, the high stability requirement for the optical unit of coronagraph is put forward. Small modulus worm gear and worm are taken by the mechanism, in order to realize compact structure, high stiffness, the unidirectional 360° rotation and reverse self-locking function. The precision, stiffness, mechanical properties and reliability of the mechanism are analyzed in the paper. The results show that the position accuracy of the filter wheel can meet the requirement of ≤±0.5mm. The first order modal of the mechanism is 313Hz. The results of vibration test indicate that stiffness, dynamic performance and reliability of the mechanism can be meet. Therefore, the design of filter wheel in this paper can ensure the multi-spectral imaging requirements under complex spatial conditions.
