The invention discloses a connecting device applied between an outboard handle of a spacecraft and an exposed load. The connecting device comprises an outboard-handle connecting device and an exposed-load connecting device; the outboard handle of the spacecraft and the exposed load are peripheral equipment; the outboard-handle connecting device and the exposed-load connecting device are connected; the exposed-load connecting device comprises a load mounting port and a load fastening and positioning assembly; the load mounting port consists of a spherical structure and a load mounting structure, and is in integral design; the load mounting structure is fixed with the exposed load; the load fastening and positioning assembly fixes the spherical structure by utilization of a fixing manner of pretightening force; and the outboard-handle connecting device fixes the handle by utilization of the fixing manner of pretightening force. Through the adoption of the connecting device disclosed by the invention, guiding mounting, reliable fixation, precise positioning and overload protection of the exposed load and the outboard handle are realized, so that the connecting device provides a technical support for rapidly mounting the exposed load and the outboard handle at set outboard positions.
