Abstract

This paper describes the design, analysis and flight results of the low-shock separation mechanism for payload adapter. The low-shock separation mechanism is based on a simple four-bar linkage, which makes the release speed of the clamp band tension lower than the current pyrotechnics system. In this paper, we describe the result of development, flight demonstration with using dummy payload ring and flight with actual satellite.
