ABSTRACT:
A universal gyroscope flexure hinge assembly is provided to interconnect the inertial flywheel of a 2-axes free rotor gyroscope to the gyroscope spin shaft, with two symmetrical, axially displaced gimbal elements which allow two axes of angular freedom. Errors which would arise due to axially displaced gimbal elements are compensated for by offsetting the flexure axes of the two gimbal elements. Each pair of flexure blades forming a flexure hinge have a common flexure axis and the flexure hinge assembly has only two orthogonal flexure axes which are axially displaced from one another.
