This invention proposes a three-stage linkage deployment and transfer device and method for a rover, belonging to the field of rover transfer technology. It solves the problems of existing rover transfer mechanisms being unable to reliably transfer the rover to the lunar surface under various operating conditions, lacking
selective transfer capabilities, and failing to effectively separate the rover from the lander. It includes a release
rope, a deployment
rope, a first motor, a second motor, and a linkage
assembly. The linkage
assembly includes a first linkage rod, a second linkage rod, and a third linkage rod. The top end of the first linkage rod is installed at the lower end of the lander, and the
tail end of the first linkage rod is connected to the top end of the second linkage rod. The
tail end of the second linkage rod is connected to the top end of the third linkage rod. One end of the deployment
rope is connected to motor M2, and the other end of the deployment rope is installed at the connection between the first and second linkage rods. One end of the release rope is connected to motor M1. It is mainly used for rover transfer.
