Claim 3:
4. The panel deployment apparatus according to claim 3, wherein
with respect to a first pair of the first main panel and the first side panel, a second pair of the second main panel and the second side panel is deployed by the main hinge in a state of the first stop member being engaged with the first cylindrical member of the first guide, causing the first stop member to move in the first cylindrical member,
the second stop member reaches the second guide before the first stop member reaches a position of the first slit opening of the first guide,
when the first stop member is disengaged from the first guide through the first opening, the second stop member is engaged with the second cylindrical member of the second guide by abutting the second cylindrical member,
the first side panel of the first pair is deployed by the first hinge in a state of the second stop member being engaged with the second cylindrical member of the second guide, causing the second cylindrical member to rotate with respect to the second stop member,
when the second slit opening of the second guide reaches a position of the second stop member, the second stop member is disengaged from the second guide through the second slit opening of the second guide, causing the second side panel coupled with the deployment stop member to be deployed with respect to the second main panel.
