This invention relates to a system for deploying solar panels for nanosatellites, which will find application in science, in space research, and in particular in the equipment of nanosatellites of the CubeSats type. The developed system for deploying solar panels for nanosatellites consists of a fixing connection (11) for keeping the solar panels in a folded state and a hinged connection (10) for forming the solar panels in a common platform. The hinged connection (10) is formed as a hinge, including a central double-walled axis (9), on which a primary torsion spring (4) is centrally mounted, to which central double-walled axis (9) also the second arm (8) and the first arm (7) are connected in series. At one end of the central double-walled axle (9) are made channels for fixing by means of locking rings (6) of a ratchet gear (1), constantly in contact with a support pin (5) under the influence of a secondary torsion spring (3) mounted on axle (2), which is mounted to the first arm (7).
