Abstract

The present invention discloses a modular deployable antenna mechanism based on a symmetrically structural tetrahedron combination unit. The deployable antenna mechanism is formed by multiple deployable antenna modules, two adjacent deployable antenna modules are connected through a first face plate at the bottom of one deployable antenna module and a second face plate at the bottom of the other deployable antenna module, the first face plate and the second face plate are connected through a Hooke joint, an unconnected first face plate and second face plate of the two adjacent deployable antenna modules are connected through a first synchronizing bar, a middle portion of a bar body of the first synchronizing bar can be folded, and the first synchronizing bar is rotationally connected with the first face plate and the second face plate.
