Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of flight, and in particular to a device and method for switching a sway reduction channel for a front wheel control of an aircraft. Background Art

[0002] The all-electric aircraft front wheel turning control technology is a key technology for ground maneuvering of aircraft. During the take-off and landing process of the aircraft, the turning channel and the sway reduction channel are switched according to actual needs to complete the turning and sway reduction control of the aircraft front wheel. In the switching of the turning control and sway reduction control of the aircraft front wheel, the transmission mechanism is required to be small in size, light in weight, stable in transmission, strong in impact and vibration resistance, and the transmission ratio from the sway reducer to the aircraft front wheel must be met.

[0003] The existing aircraft front wheel control mechanisms are mainly of two types: double-actuator type and rack and pinion type. In the double-actuator type front wheel control mechanism, the thrust direction of the actuator is always changing during movement, which makes the transmission efficiency unstable and affects the reliability of the turning mechanism. In addition, due to the complexity of the rotation process, the required hydraulic control system is also relatively complex, requiring designers to have sufficiently high professional qualities to ensure the reliability of the system. In the rack and pinion type front wheel control mechanism, since the torque transmitted from the rack only acts on a few teeth, only a few teeth are stressed, and the stress concentration phenomenon at the root of the teeth is obvious, the service life is greatly reduced under the action of repeated bending stress. In addition, the existing aircraft front wheel control mechanism mainly adopts a hydraulic actuation system, which has a complex structure, a large weight, and a low comprehensive energy utilization efficiency.
