The Center Differential Pivot Restraint (CDPR) for the Mars 2020 mission is designed to constrain motion of the rover differential and to dampen out the load response of during rover’s mobility deployment event in Entry, Descent, and Landing (EDL) phase of the mission. For Mars 2020, it was required to redesign the mechanism to save minimum 33% of the mass from the previous Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) design. The new mechanism architecture used a monolithic spring-like flexure to act as the system compliance, resulting in 50% mass savings from the MSL design. Along the design and prototype testing process, several mechanism design principles were re-affirmed as well as lessons learned about potential race conditions.
