Elevation axis Gimbal structure Azimuth axis Fork Base Pier
Azimuth axis structure 800×1080×120mm 345×450×110.5mm ERA 880C
Basement FEM calculation • Max. deformation: 0.0764mm ; • Max. stress: 39.9Mpa;
Fork structure • single part, easy to mount and alignment, and to ensure the position accuracy of elevation axis; • welded structure with steel plates; • thermal treatment to relieve stress;
Fork FEM calculation • Max. deformation: 0.0123mm ; • Max. stress: 2.36Mpa;
Tape encoder Bearing Bearing Elevation axis structure Driving motor
OSS (Tube) structure • Serrurier truss; • Primary mirror supporting: vertical: 18-point whiffletree; lateral: counterweight lever;
M2 supporting structure • 4 vanes connecting to top-ring; • Active positioning system: δx, δy, δz, θx, θy; • Baffle for stray light;
M3 connecting part to center section M3 supporting structure bearing reducer motor and encoder • 4 vanes connecting to center section; • Motorized to achieve rotation for two Nasmyth foci;
It is just conceptual design. More detail calculation is needed, such as the motor torque, bearing stiffness, etc. and more innovative structure is needed to improve the performance further. • The preliminary structure design and calculation show that the telescope requirements can be met; Conclusions:
