The holding device comprises a frame and is characterized in that the holding device is provided with an upper connecting rod, a lower connecting rod, a lifting oil cylinder, a rotating pin roll, a swing framer, a pressing bracket, a pressing oil cylinder, an upper pressing arm, a hinge pin roll, a clamp and a clamp pin roll, wherein the swing frame is hinged with the frame through the rotating pin roll; the front end of the lifting oil cylinder is hinged with the swing frame; the rear end of the lifting oil cylinder is hinged with the lower end of a saddle; a lifting rotary frame and the pressing bracket are arranged at the upper end of the front part of the saddle; a contacted work plane between the rear part of the saddle and the nose wheel is an inclined plane; the hinge pin roll is arranged at the front end of the lifting rotary frame; the pressing oil cylinder is arranged at the rear end of the lifting rotary frame; one end of the lower connecting rod is hinged with the swing frame; the other end of the lower connecting rod is hinged with the hinge pin roll; one end of the upper connecting rod is hinged with the hinge pin roll; the other end of the upper connecting rod is hinged with the frame; the lower end of the pressing bracket is hinged with the saddle; the upper end of the pressing bracket is hinged with the upper pressing arm; one end of the pressing oil cylinder is hinged with the lifting rotary frame; and the other end of the pressing oil cylinder is hinged with the upper pressing arm. The holding device disclosed by the invention has the advantages of novel structure, safety, reliability, great holding constraint force and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of aviation ground equipment, and in particular relates to a clamping device for an aircraft nose wheel of a wheel-holding aircraft tractor. Background technique [0002] As an important equipment in the airport industry, aircraft tractors are mainly used for towing and pushing operations of aircraft. Compared with the traditional rod-mounted aircraft tractor, the wheel-holding aircraft tractor has the advantages of high efficiency, low emission, and high degree of intelligence. The wheel holding aircraft tractor is equipped with a set of nose wheel holding clip device, which can lift the nose wheel off the ground. As an important component of the wheel holding tractor, the nose wheel holding clamp device often determines the operation performance of the whole vehicle. [0003] Since the nose wheels of civil aviation aircraft have different diameters, the clamping device should be able to adapt to the requirements o...

[0005] After retrieval, CN202147843 discloses a clamping-lifting device for a rodless aircraft tractor, which includes a turntable, a turntable fixing part, a middle shaft, and a front arc clamp Holding plate, vertical shaft, rear baffle, hydraulic cylinder assembly, front hinged joint, rear hinged joint and rear baffle limit plate, turntable device tractor surface, turntable fixing part is installed on the turntable surface, a round hole is formed in the upper part, and the middle The vertical axis on the rotating shaft is set in the round hole, the upper end of the front arc-shaped clamping plate is hinged on the horizontal axis of the intermediate rotating shaft, the lower end of the vertical shaft is fixed at the opening of the U-shaped groove, the rear baffle is connected with the turntable through the vertical shaft, and the hydraulic cylinder assembly passes through the front, The rear hinge joint is hinged with the front arc clamping plate and the rear baffle, and the limit plate of the rear baffle is set on the surface of the turntable. The disadvantages of this device are: 1. It does not have the function of automatically matching the size of the nose wheel, and cannot clamp Aircraft nose wheels with different diameters, 2. The restraining force of the wheel holding mechanism is not enough. During the traction process, the nose wheel of the aircraft is easy to jump up and down, causing the nose wheel of the aircraft to jump out of the wheel holding mechanism and get rid of the rodless aircraft tractor, which may easily cause accidents

[0006] CN03263980.5 discloses a device for clamping and lifting the front nose wheel of an aircraft on the Internet. It controls the movement of the front and rear clamping roller groups respectively with the front and rear control arms hinged on the lifting arm. The swing of the arm relative to the lifting arm is respectively restricted by the ratchet mechanism and the stopper. When the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder is stretched out, the rear control arm first swings around the hinge point, and the rear control arm is driven by the connecting rod hinged on its upper end. The movement of the vertical seat cover holding the roller is controlled by the fan-shaped cam of the vertical seat cover and the roller mounted obliquely on the end of the lifting arm. The rear clamping roller first deflects inward, closing the passage behind the front nose wheel of the aircraft, and converting to The horizontal axis swings from the rear to the upper side along the arc, during which the rear clamping roller contacts and pulls the front nose wheel of the aircraft to roll on the support plate fixed under the lifting arm until the lower end of the rear control arm and the lower part of the lifting arm Until the block touches, the rear control arm touches the block and at the same time touches the control clamp mechanism to release a spring-loaded pawl to prevent the front clamping roller group from continuing to move forward under the push of the nose wheel of the aircraft, passing the block Apply force to push the lifting arm and the clamped nose wheel of the aircraft upward together. The disadvantage of this wheel holding mechanism is also that the restraining force of the wheel holding mechanism is not enough. During the traction process, the nose wheel of the aircraft is easy to jump up and down, causing the nose wheel of the aircraft to jump out. Wheel-holding mechanism, get rid of the rodless aircraft tractor and easily cause accidents

[0007]The other nose wheel holding device mostly adopts the roller holding device, because the roller and the nose wheel are in line contact, it is easy to cause the side slip of the nose wheel, resulting in unsafe factor

And there is no clamp locking device after clamping, which may easily cause the clamping device to disengage due to side slipping and other reasons during the operation process, resulting in safety accidents
