Mission Overview

2

Mission Statement: Zero Tilt’s goal is to provide, for the first time, a stable environment throughout the flight of a Sounding Rocket via two concurrent objectives:

◦Tilt correction system

◦Despun platform system

3

Mission Overview

We plan to:◦ Counteract the platform spin◦ Orient the platform parallel to the earth’s surface at all

times◦ Confirm the altitude reading using an accelerometer on

our platform

We expect to prove that it is possible to correct spin, tilt, and determine the altitude based upon a level reference.

This could benefit any scientific experiment that requires stabilization in order to collect data.

Mission Overview

The underlying theory and concepts:

negative feedback control systems concepts of torque and centripetal

force Micro electromechanical systems

(MEMS) Electromagnetic field theory Real-Time Systems Theory (for

multi-tasking)

5

Mission Overview: Theory and Concepts

Drexel University’s 2011 project incorporating a despun platform. The Results have not been published but the CDR offered evidence of successful trial runs at large stress.

We plan to elaborate on Drexel’s design. Modifying and improving the despun platform design in our project.

6

Past Research

Mission Objectives: Counter the spin of the rocket during flight. Keep a level surface to earth using our conceptual

design. Prove successful by comparing the acceleration data

from our zero tilt platform with that from the plate.

Minimum success criteria Our main goals as the Zero Tilt team is to receive

results indicating that we achieved zero tilt and confirming the altitude.

What we expect:

Determine whether we were successful in keeping our platform level based on data analysis. (within a 10°tolerance)

Find altitude within a reasonable tolerance again based on the data we collect.

Mission Overview: Expected Results

Radial Acceleration

Despun Platform Subsystem

Subsystem Requirements

The platform will be able to keep the platform parallel to the Earth independently of the rockets orientation.

All electrical components must be wired to a battery source without twisting the wires.

The assembly must be contained within the size requirements.

Gears

http://www.daerospace.com/MechanicalSystems/GearsDesc.php

Gear 1 is the drive motor. It will be 1” in diameter. Gear two is the main gear and will be 6.5” in diameter. This will make the gear ration 6.5:1. Both gear will be made of 7075 Aluminum machined in-house.

Torque

The torque required by the drive motor was calculated through the following equation.

=

The calculated torque is 5.0152mNm based on G force 25 and 360 maximum rpm.

Gimbal

The Gimbal will support the platform and spin with the assembly. This component will be made out of 7075 Aluminum.

Platform The platform will be made of polycarbonate and will hold

the microprocessor. The microprocessor and components to control the tilt and The tilt motor will also be embedded in the platform.

The platform will have a hollow shaft which runs through it, this will allow the wires to be run of the board and onto the gimbal. The tilt motor will act as a bearing at one end, while the hollow shaft will be encased in a bearing on the other end as it enters into the gimbal.

Center Shaft

The center shaft will encase the slip ring. This will not only take the force off of the slip ring, but also act as a gear for the spin motor. Teeth will be machines to the outside of the shaft to allow the gear on the spin servo to adjust the yaw of the gimbal.

Bearings

There are two bearings included in this design. The first is the bearing located in the gimbal which allows the platform to rotate. This will be a very small grade 5 or 7 ball bearing.

The second bearing supports the gimbal. It is a grade 5 ball bearing.

Materials

There were four materials considered for this project.

◦Aluminum Pros - light weight Cons – low shear strength

◦Steel Pros – easy to machine Cons – high density

◦ Titanium Pros – very strong Cons – high density, expensive

◦ Polycarbonate Pros – Very high tensile strength Cons – not rigid

After considering all of the materials chosen, Aluminum and polycarbonate were chosen as our materials. The poly carbonate was chosen for the platform material because of its light weight and strength. Aircraft grade aluminum was chosen for the gears and gimbal because it has a high strength and light weight.

Materials (cont.)

Design Changes

In the conceptual design, thrust bearing were going to be used to keep the rotating parts stable. Due to the compact size of the rotating parts, using a ball bearing should be sufficient in stabilizing these parts. By not using the thrust bearing the friction will be kept to a minimum.

Zero Tilt System

Zero Tilt Definition

System Components:

Gimbal, “Goal Post” structure now moved to underneath the despun platform.

Servo Motors One will make adjustments in spin so that the long side

of the plate is parallel with the direction of the rocket. One will correct the tilt relative to the earth’s surface.

Microprocessor and Gyroscope Gyro will send data for tilt correction (spin and tilt) to the

microprocessor. Microprocessor will forward the data it receives to the

two servo motors.

Zero Tilt Description

Servos Servo 1 attached directly to shaft to resolve spin. Servo 2 attached to side of gimbal to resolve tilt.

Zero Tilt Gear Weight should not be a concern on the tilt platform.

Therefore the torque produced in a one to one gear ratio between motor and tilt gear should be sufficient.

Fabrication Currently have a prototype of the zero tilt platfrom

made from polycarbonate. Hoping to use the same material for tilt gear. (all

manufactured in-house)

Zero Tilt Requirements

Number of Requirement

Description of requirement

1 Initially we hope to be able to rotate the platform 360°. This is to ensure it remains stable through the entire flight.

2 Microprocessor should be able to pass minimum voltage requirement of 2.4V to gyroscope.

3 Microprocessor should be able to pass minimum voltage requirement of 2.4V to gyroscope.

4 Gimbal, Platform, and components shall survive the intital shock and 25g in flight acceleration.

5 The platform will be balanced to conform to center of gravity constraints,

6 The platform will be within specified design constraints. Preliminarily < 2 inches in height and 4 inches in diameter,

7 Servo motors are adequately powered and provided with correction data in appropriate time frame.

• The cost and availability are both 10 because they are both less then $15.

• The range is ok for the ADXL203 and the ADXL278. The ADXL has a range of ±1.7g which gives it more accurate low g readings. The ADXL278 has a range of ±37g which collects more accurate high g readings.

• The power supply for the ADXL203 is between 3 and 6 volts which gives a wider range of voltage than the ADXL278 which has a voltage range of 3.5 to 6.

• The ADXL203 is a better fit for initializing zero-tilt.

Our electronic system requires a conversion from Digital to Analog signals for our motors.

A Digital to Analog convertor (DAC) is needed

DS - Analog to Digital Conversion

ATMEGA32-16PU-ND: we chose this chip due to its operating temperature and its compatibility with our devices and program language.

This chip is also familiar to our team, the previous model was used in our mentors Rockon project and have been extensively researched.

Having been used in the Rockon project we know that the stresses the chip undergoes will not produce an undesirable outcome.

We hope to order 90% of the materials required and begin fabrication of the gears.

We need to solidify our power requirements as well as our electric circuitry.

We must test our materials for weight and decide if our current materials will handle the stresses of rocket flight.

We intend to finalize our budget and remain within our $1500 ceiling.

Determine how fast the rocket changes angle with respect to starting position.
