[0030] Figures 1 to 7 An embodiment of the aircraft wing combined dismounting device of the application is shown. The aircraft wing combined dismounting device of the embodiment comprises a lifting adjusting base 11 and a U-shaped support 12 arranged on the lifting adjusting base 11. The U-shaped support 12 is provided with a driving shaft assembly 2 at the lower side. The U-shaped support 12 is provided with a connecting assembly 4 for connecting a wing rotating shaft 3 at the upper side of two ends. The driving shaft assembly 2 is provided with a transmission assembly 5 at two ends. Two sets of transmission assemblies 5 are connected with two sets of connecting assemblies 4 one by one and drive the two sets of connecting assemblies 4 to move synchronously to approach or move away from each other.
[0031] In use, the whole device is first pushed from under the radar cover of the aircraft head to be installed at the lower end of the wing 31 of the aircraft to be repaired. The U-shaped support 12 is inserted into the aircraft head at the concave position in the middle. The lifting adjusting base 11 adjusts the height of the two ends of the U-shaped support 12 to make the connecting assembly 4 height coordinated with the wing 31 of the aircraft. The two sets of connecting assemblies 4 are connected with the left wing 31 and the right wing 31 of the aircraft respectively. Since the connecting assemblies 4 of the left and right wings 31 are driven by the driving shaft assembly 2 to move synchronously, the left and right wings 31 can be disassembled (moved away from each other) and assembled (moved close to each other) simultaneously. The two ends are the action force and the reaction force, which balances the dismounting force (installation action force), overcomes the defects of the original knocking method, such as time-consuming, laborious, and damage to parts, and improves the working efficiency, the dismounting precision, and the automation degree.
[0032] Further, in the embodiment, the transmission assembly 5 comprises a first bevel gear 51 arranged on the drive shaft assembly 2, a transmission shaft 52, a worm gear 53, a gear 54 and a sliding block 55 arranged on the U-shaped support 12, the lower end of the transmission shaft 52 is provided with a second bevel gear 56 engaged with the first bevel gear 51, the upper end of the transmission shaft 52 is provided with a worm 57 engaged with the worm gear 53, the gear 54 is coaxially arranged with the worm gear 53, the sliding block 55 is provided with a rack 58 engaged with the gear 54, and the connecting assembly 4 is arranged on the sliding block 55. In operation, the drive shaft assembly 2 drives the first bevel gear 51 to rotate, the first bevel gear 51 drives the transmission shaft 52 to rotate through the second bevel gear 56, the worm 57 at the upper end of the transmission shaft 52 drives the worm gear 53 to rotate, the gear 54 rotates synchronously with the worm gear 53, and in turn drives the rack 58 to move, so that the sliding block 55, the connecting assembly 4 and the wing 31 connected with the connecting assembly 4 move as a whole with the rack 58, thereby achieving the disassembly and assembly of the wing 31. The transmission assembly 5 composed of the bevel gear pair, the worm gear pair and the gear-rack pair has high transmission efficiency, accurate transmission ratio, reliable operation and long service life, and can achieve equidistance, equal speed and stable disassembly and assembly of the wings 31 at both ends.
[0033] Further, in the embodiment, the U-shaped support 12 is provided with a sliding rail 13 matched with the sliding block 55. The sliding rail 13 provides a guiding effect for the movement of the sliding block 55 and reduces the moving resistance, so that the sliding block 55 moves more smoothly and has higher movement precision.
[0034] As a preferred embodiment, the sliding rail 13 is arranged on both sides of the rack 58, which has good symmetry and is beneficial to keep the overall force of the sliding block 55 balanced.
[0035] Further, in the embodiment, the sliding block 55 is provided with a position detection component 59 (such as a position sensor, a travel switch, etc.) at both ends. The position detection component 59 limits the limit position of the sliding block 55, further improving the reliability of the device and avoiding damage.
[0036] Further, in the embodiment, the lower recess of the U-shaped support 12 is provided with a flexible anti-collision strip 14 (such as a hollow rubber strip, a plastic strip, etc.). The flexible anti-collision strip 14 is arranged at the position where the U-shaped support 12 may contact the airplane, which is beneficial to avoid scratching the airplane.
[0037] Further, in the embodiment, the connecting assembly 4 comprises a mounting seat 41 connected with the transmission assembly 5, the mounting seat 41 is provided with a hoop 42 and a reverse U-shaped bolt 43, and the reverse U-shaped bolt 43 is located outside the hoop 42 (i.e. the hoop 42 is located between the reverse U-shaped bolts 43 at both ends). The reverse U-shaped bolt 43 and the hoop 42 cooperate to effectively fix the wing 31 on the mounting seat 41, avoid the wing 31 from shaking or deviating during disassembly and assembly, and have simple structure, high reliability and convenient disassembly and assembly.
[0038] Further, in the embodiment, the lifting adjusting base 11 comprises a base 111 and a lifting seat 112 above the base 111, and lifting adjusting assemblies 113 are arranged between the two ends of the base 111 and the lifting seat 112, and supporting legs 114 are hinged to the two sides of the base 111. The height of the two ends of the lifting seat 112 can be adjusted by the lifting adjusting assemblies 113 at the two ends, so as to adjust the height of the two ends of the U-shaped support 12, so that the center of the U-shaped support 12 coincides with the center axis of the airplane, and the connecting assemblies 4 at the two ends are accurately connected with the left and right wing rotating shafts 3. Preferably, the lifting adjusting assemblies 113 adopt a threaded structure, and the lifting of the lifting seat 112 is realized by rotating an adjusting hand wheel 115. In operation, the supporting legs 114 are opened to increase the contact area of the base 111 with the ground and improve the stability of the base 111; after disassembly or assembly is completed, the supporting legs 114 are folded to reduce the occupied space, and the structure is simple and reasonable.
[0039] Further, in the embodiment, the driving shaft assembly 2 is provided with a worm reducer 21 at one end, and a torque detection component 61 is arranged between the worm reducer 21 and the driving shaft assembly 2. Preferably, the torque detection component 61 is provided with a display screen or is externally connected with a display, a display panel or the like, so as to facilitate the operator to monitor the torque value in real time, and the driving hand wheel 22 is stopped in time when the torque reaches an alarm value. The worm reducer 21 is used to realize speed reduction and torque increase, so that the connecting assembly 4 and the wing 31 can obtain sufficient translation driving force, which is beneficial to the disassembly and assembly of the wing 31; the torque detection component 61 detects the torque of the output shaft of the worm reducer 21 in real time, which plays a protection role and avoids damage to the wing 31 due to excessive force. Preferably, the driving hand wheel 22 can be arranged on the input shaft of the worm reducer 21, so as to facilitate manual rotation of the input shaft of the worm reducer 21. Manual driving of the worm reducer 21 simplifies the structure of the device, adapts to the needs of field repair in time, avoids the influence of high-voltage electricity and high-pressure oil pumps on the electronic equipment of the airplane, and also avoids damage to the expensive airplane due to faults of the motor or the hydraulic source motor, so that the structure is more reliable in operation, has high working stability and good practicability.
[0040] Further, in the embodiment, a torque limiting coupling 62 is arranged between the torque detection component 61 and the worm reducer 21. The torque limiting coupling 62 is used to limit the torque within a certain range, and when the torque exceeds a set value, the two parts of the torque limiting coupling 62 are separated from each other, so that the torque cannot be continuously transmitted, which plays a protection role and avoids damage to the wing 31 due to excessive force.
[0041] Preferably, threaded fasteners are used to connect the parts of the device, which has good reliability, is convenient for disassembly and transportation, can be quickly assembled when used, and solves the problem of high-voltage power supply in the field.
[0042] Although the present application has been described in connection with the preferred embodiment thereof with reference to the drawings, it is not to be limited to the details described therein but can be modified in various ways which will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the scope of the present application as defined by the appended claims.
