ABSTRACT:
Deployable device composed of rigid panels connected by articulations to a support (2). First panels (4), or arms, pivoting more than second panels (6), or main panels, in order to move from the folded-up position to the deployed position, are preferably smaller than the said second panels. Triangular linking panels (7) are placed between the first and second panels and articulated on them. The actuating means preferably lock the device both in the deployed position and in the folded-up position.
