Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of airport ground special equipment, and in particular relates to an aircraft traction auxiliary device and a use method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The rapid development of the civil aviation transportation industry has led to a significant increase in the number of operating aircraft. The increase in the number of routes and flight density has put forward higher requirements on airport ground support facilities. Especially in the case of a high frequency of small-scale emergencies, the occupation of the runway will seriously affect the flight plans of other flights. How to quickly respond to small-scale accidents and quickly and efficiently transfer faulty aircraft plays a key role in ensuring the order and normal operation of the airport ground. At present, for accidents such as small and medium-sized aircraft running off the runway and the breaking of the landing gear, the aircraft is usually supported by a lifting airbag, such as patent CN 211310696 U, and then the aircraft is transferred by using a lifting crane, a tractor trailer and other transport tools; the front wheel of the aircraft is lifted by the wheel holding device of the aircraft tractor and towed to the destination, such as the wheel holding device disclosed in CN 106742031 B and CN 104002986 A, the front wheel of the aircraft is lifted by hydraulic drive, towed to a designated maintenance location, the wheel is lowered, the tractor is away from the aircraft, and then the aircraft wheel is inspected, repaired or replaced by the aircraft wheel maintenance lifting device disclosed in CN 108751038 A. However, aircraft tractors are expensive, costing about RMB 1 million per unit. In 2008, the towbarless aircraft tractors introduced by my country for the Airbus A380 even cost as much as RMB 11 million per unit. With the increase in flights, the scheduling of aircraft tractors has become tight. If they are arranged to perform lifting and towing operations on small aircraft for a long time, it will cause a waste of resources. The operation of the tractor requires full-time maintenance personnel, which requires a high level of operation. The wheel-holding mechanism of the aircraft tractor has a small space and can only perform lifting and towing operations on the wheels. There is no operating space for further maintenance of the tires. In addition, special aircraft wheel maintenance and lifting equipment is used, which makes some simple wheel maintenance work complicated and wastes resources.
[0003] Secondly, aircraft tractors have a large lifting capacity. For the ground transfer of small and medium-sized aircraft, the use of aircraft tractors will waste resources, making the towing and transfer work arrangements for medium and large aircraft more compact, reducing the time and space tolerance, and not utilizing the ground support equipment dispatch at airports with multiple aircraft types, flights and high passenger density, which is not conducive to improving the airport operation efficiency during periods of heavy workload;
[0004] Thirdly, for the wheel maintenance needs of small and medium-sized aircraft, the use of a fixed lifting device is not convenient for the transfer of the aircraft's position, and the aircraft tractor is not convenient for wheel maintenance operations because the space around the wheel is greatly reduced after lifting the wheel, which is limited by its working range. An automatic aircraft lifting device proposed in CN202110942096.3 has the characteristics of simple operation, low cost, and convenient wheel maintenance. However, its lifting plate frame is an integral whole and cannot well meet the working conditions of a single-sided wheel blowout, which limits its scope of use to a certain extent; and the entire lifting plate frame is a cantilever beam structure, and stress is easily concentrated during the lifting process, which requires a high strength for the lifting mechanism, increasing the manufacturing difficulty and cost.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0044] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0046] like Figures 1 to 10As shown, the movable T-shaped base platform mainly includes a base 13 and a translation base 203 fixed at one end of the base 13. Universal wheels 4 are fixed at the four corners of the bottom of the base 13 and the translation base 203. Two horizontally aligned translation slides 201 are slidably connected to the upper part of the translation base 203; a servo motor 202 is fixed at one end of the translation base 203, and a translation screw 2 is fixed at the driving end of the servo motor 202. The translation screw 2 is arranged in the middle of the inner cavity of the translation base 203. The translation screw 2 is a bidirectional screw, half of which is a left-handed thread and the other half is a right-handed thread. The translation screw 2 is threadedly screwed and penetrates the middle position of the bottom of the two translation slides 201. The servo motor 202 is a forward and reverse motor, so it can drive the translation screw 2 to rotate forward and reverse, and then drive the two translation slides 201 to move closer or farther from each other. A set of main lifting platforms is fixed on each translation slide 201. The servo motor 202 is connected to the translation screw 2 through a coupling, and the position of the translation slide 201 is controlled by controlling the rotation of the servo motor 202. Other existing technologies can also be used, such as arranging the servo motor 202 in the middle of the bidirectional screw and driving the bidirectional screw to rotate through a transmission mechanism such as a gear, a pulley, and a chain, so as to ensure that the entire main lifting platform is in a suitable position.
[0047] like Figures 1 to 10As shown, the main lifting platform mainly includes a lifting plate frame 103 installed on the upper part of the translation slide 201, a lifting stepping motor 101 is fixed on the upper part of the lifting plate frame 103, a lifting screw 1 is fixed on the driving end of the lifting stepping motor 101, and the lifting screw 1 is arranged in the middle of the lifting plate frame 103, a lifting slide 102 is slidably connected to the lifting plate frame 103, and the lifting screw thread is screwed through the middle of the lifting slide 102; a lifting arm 3 is arranged on the front side of each lifting slide 102; the lifting arm 3 is a cantilever structure, including a horizontal main load-bearing plate 302, a main The rear baffle 301 and the front baffle 303 are respectively arranged on both sides of the bearing plate 302; the lifting slide 102 and the main bearing plate 302 are fixedly connected by the Z-shaped plate 10, or are fixedly connected by welding or bolting; a baffle stepper motor 304 is arranged in the middle of the upper end of the main bearing plate 302, and a screw rod is fixed to the driving end of the baffle stepper motor 304, and the screw rod is threaded and penetrates the bottom of the front baffle 303, and the bottom of the front baffle 303 is slidably connected to the main bearing plate 302, and a pressure sensor 803 is arranged in the middle position of the upper part of the main bearing plate 302. The main bearing plate can be a steel plate, a profile, etc., the rear baffle 301 is fixed on the main bearing plate 302, and the front baffle 303 can be adjusted to open and close by a motor or manually, and can be suitable for wheels of different diameters.

The pressure sensor is used to measure the wheel pressure borne by the two lifting arms. Through the control algorithm, the lifting force of the left and right wheels can be consistent during the lifting process, and the coordinated lifting of the left and right lifting arms can be achieved. In addition, the force signal fed back by the pressure sensor can be combined to achieve the load distribution of the total axle load of the front wheels of the aircraft on the auxiliary lifting platform and the left and right wheel lifting arms of the main lifting platform, so as to avoid damage caused by stress concentration in the structure.
[0048] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the auxiliary lifting platform is located in the gap between the two main bearing plates, and mainly includes a scissor frame 6 for lifting the wheel axle, a wheel axle lifting surface 602 and a second electric push rod 601.

A second displacement sensor 802 is installed in the middle of one side of the bottom of the scissor frame 6, and the bottom of the second electric push rod 601 is movably hinged to the upper part of the base 13. In this setting, the telescopic movement of the scissor frame is realized by the second electric push rod, and the vertical movement of the contact surface is realized by the telescopic movement of the scissor frame 6.
[0049] like Figures 1 to 10As shown, further, an electric push rod assembly is arranged at one end of the main bearing plate 302 away from the lifting slide 102.

A first displacement sensor 801 is installed between the L-shaped plate and the electric push rod bottom plate. Through the coordinated control of the lifting stepper motor 101 and the first electric push rod, the synchronous lifting of the front and rear ends of the main bearing plate is achieved, which can improve the stress distribution of the main bearing plate during the lifting process. The upper end of the first electric push rod can be connected to the L-shaped plate through a flexible connection with greater rigidity to avoid motion interference caused by synchronous lifting errors.

The lifting arms on both sides can be controlled by the lower computer to realize the synchronous movement and lifting of the first electric push rod and the lifting screw, and can realize synchronous and stable lifting of the machine wheel. Under working conditions such as a single machine wheel puncture, asynchronous and stable lifting can be achieved through the pressure sensor 803. The first and second displacement sensors provide real-time feedback on the lifting heights on both sides. In the case of height differences, the lifting speed on one side is adjusted to achieve synchronous lifting adjustment.
