Example Embodiment

[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0023] See Figure 1-3 To illustrate this embodiment, a space retractable robotic arm based on 4D printing includes a hollow columnar structure 1, a first pressing plate 2 and a second pressing plate 3. The hollow columnar structure 1 is formed by 4D printing technology, and the hollow columnar The material of the structure 1 is a shape memory polymer, the wall surface of the hollow columnar structure 1 is distributed in a net shape, and the two ends of the hollow columnar structure 1 are respectively connected with the first pressing plate 2 and the second pressing plate 3.

[0024] The shape memory polymer of the present invention is a polylactic acid material, which has thermoplasticity and shape memory effects, can be actively deformed under thermal excitation conditions, is directl
