内容記述The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Multisetting Torque Limiter will be used by astronauts during the First Servicing Mission STS-61. It was designed to replace several individual torque limiters. This replacement reduces the number of tools required as well as reduce the time required for servicing. The Multisetting Torque Limiter design specified five separate torque settings: 2, 5.3, 9, 35 and 45 ft-lbs. This original units were tested at the 2, 5.3, and 9 ft-lbs settings and did not meet the design specifications. The 35 ft-lb and 45 ft-lb torque settings were not incorporated into the original flight design. The objective of the Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) redesign effort is to incorporate all five torque settings into a flight design which means the requirements for the first HST Servicing Mission. The first target of the redesign effort focused on the spring chamber and ball detent design. The original design used belleville springs in parallel; the new design changed this configuration to belleville springs stacked in series. The current engineering unit was successfully tested in ambient environment at all five settings. A flight design will soon undergo thermal vacuum testing to evaluate its performance at the temperature extremes.
