Abstract
A novel intermittent mechanism and low-impact deployment hinge based on intermittent mechanism are presented in this paper. This application is contemplated to lower the impact dramatically at the end of hinge deployment. The overall deployment process is described and the maximum impact force and angular velocity are derived. The effect of the intermittent motion mechanism on free spring deployable hinges is evaluated by indexes of maximum angular velocity and impact force. Cases are simulated to verify the mechanism design, and results show that the maximum angular velocity and impact force can be decreased by more than 90%.
