DEF

[A platform which serves as] an astronaut toolholder and positioning aid.

CONT

The Portable Work Platform(PWP)... is a mobile base of operations that will enable EVA [Extravehicular Activity] crew members to reach various parts of the station. It is designed to attach to the end of the space station's mechanical arm... The PWP offers greater movement with a swiveling foot restraint, a storage location for tools, and temporary storage for large space station ORUs [Orbital Replaceable Units]. The platform comprises several components : an articulating portable foot restraint(APFR), a tool stanchion, and a temporary equipment restraint aid(TERA).

OBS

portable work platform; PWP : term and abbreviation officially approved by the International Space Station official approval Group(ISSOAG).

The tool stanchion primarily serves as a temporary storage for EVA [Extra-Vehicular Activity] tools and equipment. The tool head is designed to hold up to four single-sided or two double-sided tool boards. Four bayonet fitting receptacles can be used to hold tools, and two EVA changeout mechanism sockets mounted on top of the tool head can be used to store ORUs [Orbital Replaceable Units]. Two tool stanchions are baselined for the station.

  • Orbital Stations
CONT

The TERA [Temporary Equipment Restraint Aid] is equipped with a grapple fixture which allows for interfacing with the station (and shuttle) RMS [Remote Manipulator System] and which provides a restraint for a single ORU [Orbital Replaceable Unit] and its supporting cargo subcarrier. The TERA serves as well as a mounting location for the APRF [Articulating Portable Foot Restraint]. A second ORU can be stored temporarily on the TERA by using a ball stack or an ORU tether installed on the side-mounted EVA [Extra-Vehicular Activity] changeout mechanism socket. The TERA also includes an equipment tether reel with 12-foot retractable tether, a stowage bracket for a safety tether, and a load-alleviating assembly.

CONT

The APFR [Articulating Portable Foot Restraint] secures a crew member’s feet and allows the astronaut to adjust his body position at a work site. The APFR has three independent joints that are activated by EVA astronauts. Yaw and roll are controlled by foot pedals. The APFR can yaw 360 degrees and can roll 180 degrees. Pitch is controlled by a know at the base of the APFR. The APFR and pitch 180 degrees. The APFR may be used either as the core unit of the PWP (in conjunction with the TERA and tool stanchion) or as a stand-alone unit. Eight APFRs are baselined for the space station.

The Starboard 0(S0) truss segment is the first major element of the International Space Station's enormous exterior framework. The S0 Truss is 13. 4 meters(44 feet) long and 4. 6 meters(15 feet) wide and weighs 12, 247 kilograms(27, 000 pounds). It is the center segment of 11 integrated trusses that will provide the foundation for station subsystem hardware installation, utility distribution, power generation, heat rejection and external payload accommodations. The S0 truss acts as the junction from which external utilities are routed to the pressurized modules by means of EVA-deployed umbilicals. The S0 truss is going to the space station with a complement of pre-integrated hardware to increase ISS functionality, including the Mobile Transporter, the Trailing Umbilical System, the Portable Work Platform, four Global Positioning System antennas, two rate gyros, an Extravehicular Charged Particle Detection System and umbilicals for U. S. on-orbit elements.

OBS

Atlantis (STS-110, mission 8A) rejoignait l'ISS [International Space Station] pour doter la Station d'une nouvelle structure : l'Integrated Truss Structure SO (le segment central de la poutre de 91 m à terme). Cette poutre de 13 m et lourde de 12 tonnes a été fixée au-dessus du laboratoire américain Destiny. Elle servira de base à des dizaines de tonnes d'équipements qui seront installés ces prochaines années : panneaux solaires, appareils de refroidissement et autres systèmes nécessaires au fonctionnement de l'ISS. Enfin, les astronautes d'Atlantis ont installé le transporteur mobile, un petit wagonnet qui doit servir de base mobile pour le bras robotique Canadarm2. Une fois opérationnel, le transporteur mobile circulera le long d'un rail installé le long de la poutre S0.
