Title
Design and Simulation of a Resettable MEMS Safety and Arming Device
Abstract
Given the one-way and irreversible arming of the traditional safety and arming device (SAD), a resettable MEMS SAD is proposed in this paper. The SAD comprises a basal insulating layer, an active locker, an electrode anchor, an optical fiber actuator, a fiber groove, optical fibers, and a reverse locker. Only if the active locker and the reverse locker, as the independent safety features, are all in the enabling position will the laser coupling efficiency between the optical fibers be satisfied to donate the initiator. Since all the components of the SAD are active-actuated, the resettable function (armed to safe) can be realized. The theoretical analysis of the optical fiber actuator is conducted to ensure that the input fiber can achieve sufficient displacement to the armed position, and the magnification is calculated and proved consistent with the simulation results. The finite element analysis demonstrates the feasibility of the SAD.
