ABSTRACT:
A deployment mechanism in which a member 2 deploys from a spinning body 1 by centrifugal force is described.
A friction arm 6 exerts a retarding torque on the root 4 of member 2 and prevents the member from overshooting its deployed position. The friction arm 6 applies a retarding torque which is proportional to the spin rate of the missile and keeps the resultant deployment torque to within pre-determined limits. The mechanism automatically compensates for a wide range of spin rates.
