Abstract
A spacecraft is disclosed including a frame, an electrical device powered and/or controlled by electrical cables, and a system for orienting the electrical device, which orientation system includes at least two rotary actuators with non-parallel axes (Δa, Δb), a junction part between the two rotary actuators, one or more guide forks, arranged outside the junction part and fastened to the latter, each guide fork including fingers configured to support the electrical cables and to form a guide path for said cables so that the electrical cables never exert, on the rotary actuators, a torque higher than the torque capacity of the actuators, at least one of the forks having a main axis which passes through the center of intersection of the axes of rotation of the actuators.
