PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate limits imposed on a space where devices can be mounted and the number of devices by the necessity of arranging the devices mounted on an artificial satellite structure not to interfere with a metal tank for storing the propellants of a propulsion device or a metal tank support structure.SOLUTION: As a tank 1 for storing the propellants of a propulsion device, an elastic tank having a double-layer structure made of a tank inner layer having elasticity and expanded as it is filled with the propellants and a tank outer layer covering the tank inner surface with an outside is installed in an artificial satellite structure 2. By eliminating a conventional metal tank support structure by using the elastic tank, a space not used in a conventional artificial satellite system can be effectively used.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

    【課題】人工衛星構体内の搭載機器は、推進装置の推進剤を貯蔵する金属製タンクや金属タンク支持構造物との干渉がないよう配置する必要があり、機器を搭載可能な空間や機器数が制限されていた。【解決手段】推進装置の推進剤を貯蔵するタンク1として、伸縮性を有して推進剤が充填されるに従い膨張するタンク内層と、前記タンク内層を外側で覆うタンク外層の二層構造からなる伸縮性タンクを、人工衛星構体2内に設置する。本発明によれば、伸縮性タンクを用いて従来の金属タンク支持構造物を無くすことにより、従来の人工衛星システムでは使用できなかった空間を有効に活用できる。【選択図】図1
