Entwicklung eines neuartigen Release-Caging Mechanismus für den GraviTower Bremen Prototypen

Development of a new kind of mechanical decoupling systems for microgravity platforms. This new kind of mechanisms allows a very fast decoupling and recoupling in any relative position. This work shows in detail all design criteria and the whole development process of the RCM Release-Caging mechanism which is used in the GraviTower Bremen prototype.
