Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aviation test and measurement, and in particular relates to a Mars rotor take-off and landing performance test system under near-earth effect. Background Art
[0002] At present, general rotor test benches are mainly divided into fixed rotor test benches that simulate the hovering state, mobile rotor test benches that simulate forward flight, and tilt-rotor test benches that simulate tilt-rotor aircraft according to the flight state of the rotor being measured; the characteristics of various rotor test benches are as follows: (1) Fixed rotor test benches are relatively common, such as the 2m-class rotor test bench at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. This test bench is mainly used to test the hovering performance and flow field analysis of the rotor. It can also be placed in a wind tunnel to perform forward flight tests. However, the main support part of this type of test bench is relatively large, which will cause significant interference to the near and far flow fields of the rotor in the wind tunnel, and the support with a large frontal area will cause a certain blocking effect on the wind tunnel. When simulating forward flight, it involves a complex process of various rotor trim and parameter adjustments. Moreover, most of the trim and parameter adjustments are based on previous theoretical calculations, so there is still a certain difference in the simulation of the actual forward flight of the rotor. Therefore, the types of tests that can be performed on fixed rotor test benches are limited. Even if you want to simulate forward flight, you have to use a wind tunnel to achieve it, which increases the cost of the test.
[0003] (2) On the one hand, the mobile rotor test bench is difficult to build, occupies a large area, and has high construction costs; on the other hand, it is easily affected by the external weather environment during the test, and it is difficult to find suitable test conditions;
[0004] (3) Research on simulated tilt-rotor test benches focuses on scaled models (low cost, convenient for flow field analysis but with size effect), full-scale tests (reliable data but high cost) and hybrid physical-virtual platforms (flexible but complex systems). Challenges such as multi-mode conversion stability and the contradiction between lightweight and strength need to be addressed. The future trend will rely on digital twins, artificial intelligence optimization and multi-test bench collaboration to improve the R&D efficiency and safety of the next generation of tilt-rotor aircraft. Summary of the invention
[0005] The present invention provides a Mars rotor take-off and landing performance test system under near-Earth effect, which can solve the shortcomings of the existing rotor test bench, such as limited functions, complex mechanical structure, heavy structure weight, complex system, and special environment required for testing.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: A Mars rotor take-off and landing performance test system under near-Earth effect comprises: a test bench support, a lifting mechanism, a force measuring system, and a rotor mechanism; the lifting mechanism is installed on the test bench support, the force measuring system is installed on the lifting mechanism, and the rotor mechanism is installed on the force measuring system; the lifting mechanism can drive the force measuring system and the rotor mechanism to rise and fall, and the force measuring system is used to measure the lift and torque when the rotor rotates.
[0007] The test bench support is composed of a bottom plate, two L-shaped bottom mounting seats and a connecting piece, and the connecting piece is connected between the bottom mounting seats by bolts.
[0008] The lifting mechanism includes a linear bearing mounting plate, an optical axis bearing, an electric servo push rod, a threaded column, and an optical axis mounting seat; the electric servo push rod is fixed between the bottom mounting seat and the connecting plate, and the lifting and lowering movement of the electric servo push rod is realized by the retainer of the electric servo push rod; the square linear bearing mounting plate is fixed to the push rod push-out position of the electric servo push rod, and the four optical axis bearings are fixed to the four corners of the linear bearing mounting plate by bolts, and the four optical axes are installed in the optical axis bearings, and the optical axes can be lifted and lowered together with the electric servo push rod; the four optical axes respectively pass through the lifting mechanism and the force measuring system, which can enhance the stability of the entire system in the vertical direction.
[0009] The force measuring system includes an upper mounting plate, an optical axis mounting seat, a pressure sensor mounting plate, a pressure sensor, a torque balance mounting plate, and a torque sensor; a threaded column is arranged above the electric servo push rod, which is connected to the upper mounting plate through a threaded hole in the center of the upper mounting plate, and the pressure sensor mounting plate is fixed together above the upper mounting plate through four optical axis mounting seats; the pressure sensor is fixed above the pressure sensor mounting plate, and is used to measure the lift when the rotor rotates; the pressure sensor is connected to the torque balance mounting plate through a spring, and the torque balance mounting plate and the pressure sensor mounting plate are connected and fixed by four optical axes, four optical axis bearings are fixed at the four corners of the torque balance by bolts, and the optical axis is installed in the optical axis bearings, and the torque sensor is fixed to the torque balance mounting plate by four bolts, and is used to measure the torque when the rotor rotates.
[0010] The rotor mechanism consists of an extended connecting rod, a rotor motor and a rotor. The extended connecting rod is fixed to the torque sensor by bolts. The main function of the extended connecting rod is to reduce the aerodynamic interference of the torque balance mounting plate on the rotor. The rotor motor is fixed to the top of the extended connecting rod by bolts. The two blades of the rotor are connected together by a rotor blade clamp and fixed to the rotating shaft of the rotor motor after connection.
[0011] Beneficial effects: The present invention provides a Mars rotor take-off and landing performance test system under the near-earth effect. The height of the rotor mechanism from the ground can be adjusted by a lifting mechanism to complete the test of the rotor performance during the dynamic process of take-off and landing under the near-earth effect. The lift and torque of the rotor are measured by a decoupled force measurement system. A pressure sensor and a torque sensor are used to measure the lift and torque of the rotor respectively. The decoupled force measurement system saves costs compared to a six-component sensor. The test system of the present invention has a simple structure and can be quickly assembled to measure the performance of the rotor. It solves the problems of the traditional rotor test platform, such as complex mechanical structure, heavy structural weight, complex system, and some test benches need the cooperation of wind tunnels to complete the test. Complex theoretical calculation preparation work is required before the test, and the use cost is high and the time cost is large. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The lifting mechanism 2 is installed between the bottom mounting seat 102 and the mounting seat connecting piece 103.
[0014] like Figure 3 As shown, the lifting mechanism 2 includes an electric servo push rod 201, a linear bearing mounting plate 202, an optical axis bearing a203, an optical axis 204, and a threaded rod 205; the linear bearing mounting plate 202 is fixed to the rod extension of the electric servo push rod 201, and four optical axis bearings a203 are installed at the four corners of the linear bearing mounting plate 202, and each optical axis bearing is fixed to the linear bearing mounting plate by four bolts; four optical axes 204 with a length of 720 mm and a diameter of 10 mm are installed in the optical axis bearings, and the optical axes 204 can be lifted and lowered together with the electric servo push rod 201, and the four optical axes 204 run through the lifting mechanism 2 and the force measuring system 3, thereby enhancing the stability of the entire system in the vertical direction during the lifting process; the top of the electric servo push rod 201 is connected to the force measuring system 3 through a threaded rod 205, so that the electric servo push rod 201 can move with the force measuring system 3 and the rotor mechanism 4 during the lifting process.
[0015] like Figure 4 As shown, the force measuring system 3 includes an upper mounting plate 301, a pressure sensor mounting plate 302, an optical axis mounting seat 303, a pressure sensor 304, a pre-tightening bolt 305, a torque balance mounting plate 306, an optical axis bearing b307, and a torque sensor 308; the upper mounting plate 301 is connected to the threaded rod 205 through a threaded hole in the center of the bottom and is fixed above the electric servo push rod 201, and the pressure sensor mounting plate 302 is fixed to the upper mounting plate 301 using four optical axis mounting seats 303, wherein the pressure sensor mounting plate 302 is fixed to the upper mounting plate 301 together.

[0017] During operation, the test bench support 1 is fixed on the ground and the lifting mechanism 2 is fixed on the test bench support 1.
