Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of power systems, and in particular to an emergency switching manual valve for a landing gear. Background Art
[0002] For the landing gear of amphibious aircraft, its landing and retraction is driven by the hydraulic system. In order to prevent the failure of the retraction and extension hydraulic system, a redundant design is generally adopted, that is, there are two sets of hydraulic system drives. When the main hydraulic system can work normally, an emergency valve needs to be installed at the backup hydraulic system and keep the passage in a cut-off state. Only when the main hydraulic system fails can the emergency valve be used to switch the hydraulic system oil circuit to ensure the normal emergency retraction and extension function of the landing gear.
[0003] Since there are two corresponding switching paths, the traditional method of setting a valve on each path will require two actions for opening and closing, which is very troublesome and does not meet the emergency requirements of fast manual switching. Moreover, due to the high oil pressure of the oil system, the general top-insert valve structure is fast but has the risk of oil leakage, posing a major safety hazard. Summary of the Invention
