Focusing on the On-Orbit Servicing technology, a novel automatic autonomous probe-cone docking mechanism used for microsatellite docking is proposed. The structure of this mini docking mechanism is provided, and a virtual prototype model of the mini-type universal docking system is established by using MATLAB software. The simplified dynamic analysis model during the capture process is established. The dynamic characteristic analysis of the capturing process is completed to research the influence of the key parameter, and the simulation results meet the designs demand of mini-type universal autonomous docking mechanism.
