The parametric analysis of the lock-releasing mechanism in MEMS safety and arming device

In this paper, a mechanical MEMS S&A device has been proposed. The size of the device is 10mm×13mm×0.5mm. The role of the lock-releasing mechanism is to amplify the moving distance of two times, so as to effectively guarantee the time of long-distance arming. Through establishing the three-dimensional model of without optimized lock-releasing mechanism, establishing the force and the parameters of locking-releasing mechanism, deriving the mathematical model according to the rigid dynamic mechanics theory and establishing the finite element model by using ANSYS/LS-DYNA, appropriate lock-releasing mechanism is designed to meet two items, one item is that the lock-releasing rod locks the main centrifugal slider before sub-centrifugal slider movement in place; the other item is that sub-centrifugal slider will hit the lock-releasing rod when it movement in place, so the lock-releasing rod rotates around rotational positioning block and releases the main centrifugal slider.
