MOBIUS - Mobile Unit Shipping - Super Heavy Logistics Transport for the Moon and Mars · 模型 115353
The MOBIUS concept is a foldable, autonomous, reusable, ultra-light and adaptive vehicle for unprepared terrain at 20° for super heavy logistics transport of 100 tonnes for the Moon and Mars. The vertical load goes directly to the ground through the air cradle and the deformable rolling cylinders, the mains chassis are not stressed by the 100 tonnes, which allows us to calculate on this version a light machine with 1 tonne of LiFePo4 battery and solar panels of 120 m². Each caterpillar forms a ribbon whose edges are the same length but bend vertically on the sides. By this deformable and semi rigid elements, the machine can adaptate differents ground geometries and slope. The rolling cylinders are held together by a cable forming 2 oblong paths of 35m periphery All actuators are electric with screw rotation for translation. By this symetrical curvy shapes, we can get a compact machine open on the top. (This is why the name derived from Moebius strip). Thanks to these symmetrical curved shapes, we obtain a compact machine, open on the top and able to separate to pass on either side of the module, then tighten thanks to its 2 connection arms always connected. The connection arms pivoting on oblique axes allow you to straddle the module, then reassemble the machine and then lift a load from below or put it back down. The double push-pull grip of the two side cylinder axes at the front and rear guarantees continuous and secure movement in both directions. Different speeds on each track allow a direction of curve and 360° rotation back and forth. High speed performance, good stability, geometric adaptation and good maneuverability guarantee the 5 km expedition in less 40 days days with 10 days deployment, loading and unloading with very good marge. (more than 3 km/h in direct sunlight on the Moon). The loading module can be made by MOBIUS lifting system with connecting arm and lifting rollers and foldable feet. An option with airless cylinder in the same weight proportion is suggested. A wide range of reusability is suggested for the stability framework of the final module or conversion in 200m3 room in air . The 5 meter elevation will be achieved by an evolution of the MOBIUS or Athlete Crane concept. For delivery, a scenario with a tilting beam is suggested to exit the MOBIUS verticaly and folded in a 6m diameter to a deployed configuration to the ground.
