Experimental Estimation of Allowable Mechanical Impact on Dynamically Adjusted Gyroscope

Dynamically adjusted gyroscope are successfully applied in space and aviation technology. They have small overall mass characteristics at mean measurement accuracy. The study focuses on a dynamically adjusted gyroscope applied in a compact gyroscopic device for measuring the spacecraft spin vector. The main elements of the design are the miniature elastic suspension and gas dynamic support, the latter providing up to 15 years of the device service life. These design elements are very sensitive to mechanical loads, which act when the space vehicle is led out by a carrier rocket. For the compact gyroscopic device for measuring the spacecraft spin vector to be resistant to external mechanical impacts, we estimated allowable loads on the dynamically adjusted gyroscope, the loads being determined by the suspension strength and the work of the gas dynamic support. The results obtained were taken into account when implementing damping systems which provide resistance of small gyroscopic devices of different types to external mechanical impacts
