Title:
LANDING GEAR AND SPACECRAFT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/245897
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A landing gear (100) comprises a leg (110A, 110B, 110C), a rotating body (130A, 130B, 130C), and a housing (150). The leg (110A, 110B, 110C) makes contact with the landing surface at one end and moves linearly in the axial direction with the force received from the landing surface. The rotating body (130A, 130B, 130C) rotates by converting the linear motion of the leg (110A, 110B, 110C) into a rotary motion. The housing (150) accommodates the other end of the leg (110A, 110B, 110C) and rotatably holds the rotating body (130A, 130B, 130C).
