The self-supporting vaulted and collapsible panel, for use e.g. in space as a reflector, comprises a thin supple membrane (2) and a series of ribs (3) to tension it. The ribs are made from thin slats with two main surfaces, one of which faces towards the membrane, and the membrane has guides for the slats. At least one end of each guide has a pocket to receive a slat so that in its deployed state the ends of the slats exert an axial force on the membrane and tension it, while in the collapsed state the membrane occupies only a small volume for stowing inside an orbital launcher.
The slats are designed to follow the curvature of the deployed membrane and themselves have a curved cross-section; they can be made from a very elastic metal alloy, e.g. of beryllium and copper. The membrane is made from a plastic such as Kapton (RTM), reinforced with fibres, preferably of Kevlar (RTM), and it can be metallised to reflect electromagnetic waves, especially infra-red, visible light, U-V light and/or microwaves.

ADVANTAGE—Large dimensions with great stability and precision.

German Patent Number DE4422197
Inventor: Thomas Stinnesbeck
Issued: Nov. 10, 1994
The use of solar energy for supplying electrical drives of space vehicles has already been considered for a long time. High thrust phases, high terminal velocities and virtually any desired orbits can be designed if the electricity for supplying the electrical motors in high-power systems (turbines, generators etc) is produced by the combustion of hydrogen and oxygen. In contrast to a conventional H2/O2 rocket motor, the reaction product of water is, however, not ejected but is converted back into hydrogen and oxygen again, in the sense of a circuit, utilising solar energy, as a result of which the system is “charged” again. By arranging the energy gathering and acceleration phases one behind the other, any desired orbits and high terminal velocities can thus be achieved. In principle, in order to calculate specific orbits, the separation of energy collection points (so-called tanking systems) and reciprocating-operation space ships is also recommended, which reciprocating-operation space ships exchange water for “fresh” hydrogen and oxygen at the refuelling point at the end of a flight phase in order to be able to fly onwards immediately.
