Abstract:
A control moment gyroscope includes: an inner gimbal; a rotor that is held by the inner gimbal to be rotatable around a spin axis; a spin motor that is disposed on the inner gimbal, and that rotates the rotor around the spin axis; a stator that holds the inner gimbal to be rotatable around a gimbal axis that is perpendicular to the spin axis; gimbal bearings that are disposed between the inner gimbal and the stator to face each other from opposite sides of a plane that is perpendicular to the gimbal axis and that includes the spin axis, to be in contact with the plane in question, or to include the plane in question; and a torque module that is disposed on the stator, and that rotates the inner gimbal around the gimbal axis.
