Design and Simulations of a Guide-screw Hand-spike Nose Deflecting Mechanism

Abstract

The nose deflecting mechanism is important in the development of deflectable nose control technology. In this paper, drawbacks of several existing deflection mechanisms are analyzed, and design requirements of the nose deflection mechanism are summarized. Then a Screw-Spike nose deflecting mechanism is established to meet the design requirements. After that, the relationships between nose deflecting angles and rotation of motors are deduced. At last, the ADAMS-MATLAB\Simulink cosimulations are employed to validate that the Screw-Spike mechanism which is of high precision, fast response, large achievable deflecting angles can meet the design requirements.
