Aerospatiale developed a new appendage deployment concept called AMEDE (French acronym for improvement of deployment mechanisms) with a view toward increased simplicity and functional reliability. This new concept, applicable to the deployment of any type of spaceborne appendage (in particular to solar arrays), enables deployment without synchronization or speed regulation devices. On the other hand, it requires the use of hinges with low driving or resistive torques. The AMEDE concept is compared with the conventional deployment concept. The conceptual and functional principles for the ADELE hinge are presented, as well as the hinges' main characteristics. The development status of both the AMEDE concept and the ADELE (French acronym for deployment hinge using wraparound strips) hinge are addressed.
