Input
Prompt
esign a lightweight, purely mechanical payload deployment mechanism inspired by a spring-loaded sliding latch mechanism (similar to a manual push-out dispenser). Reference style: - Internal sliding plate guided by side rails - Compression spring at the bottom pushing the slider upward - Mechanical latch or hook holding the slider in the loaded position - Upon release, the slider moves smoothly to gently push the payload out Payload: - Cylindrical sensor (AA battery form factor) - Dimensions: 50 mm length × 14 mm diameter - Mass: 15–31 grams - Fragile payload requiring gentle handling Design requirements: - Ultra lightweight, compact rectangular housing - No motors, no electronics, no servos - Entirely mechanical operation using springs and gravity - Payload stored vertically - Controlled low-speed deployment (not free fall) Mechanism details: - Vertical payload chamber sized precisely for a 50×14 mm cylinder - Flat internal sliding pusher plate that contacts the bottom of the payload - Compression spring below the pusher plate providing upward force - Mechanical latch or pin that locks the pusher in place during transport - Latch released by a passive mechanical trigger (manual tab, gravity pin, or ground-contact trigger) - When released, the pusher slowly moves upward and gently ejects the payload downward or sideways Shock protection: - Rounded internal edges - Optional flexible pad or compliant surface at payload contact points - Low spring force to minimize acceleration Mounting: - Flat external mounting surface - 4 small mounting holes compatible with rover or drone frame - Lightweight ribs for strength without excess material Materials: - Thin-wall 3D-printable plastic - Filleted corners and minimal wall thickness - Emphasis on ease of assembly and reliability
