Design and Analysis of a Compression and Separation Device for Multi-Satellite Deployment

The launch method of one arrow with multiple satellites can greatly shorten the time for constellation networking and improve deployment efficiency. A new compression separation device a four-bar perimeter arrangement is proposed multi-satellite compaction in-orbit release. gap elimination designed to implement reliable stacked flat satellites. An electromagnetic achieve fast, low-interference release multi-satellites. dynamic model flexible guide bars established. characteristics are analyzed by kinematic simulation. prototype developed, related experiment implemented. results show that four-guide-bar-edge scheme achieves locking fast under vibration environment. investigated air floatation experiments. stable speed low disturbance angular velocity achieved 10% spring error.
