Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of aircraft structural strength tests, and particularly relates to a single-strut six-wheel landing gear support loading system and method. Background Art
[0002] In full-scale aircraft structural strength tests, a reasonable test support method is a basic condition for carrying out strength tests. Landing gears with relatively high strength and stiffness are the most common support parts and are also convenient for simulating aircraft load conditions. The full-aircraft test support requires static support with six-direction constraints, and the vertical support points must be three. Currently in China, for the support of multi-wheel landing gears, the combined crowbar-column method and the oil cylinder connection method are usually used to form a support point. The existing main landing gear support methods are mainly applied to multi-strut multi-wheel landing gears with single-strut two wheels, and there is a lack of shock mitigation during emergency unloading. When the impact load is too large, it may cause damage to the test piece. For the landing gear structure of a single-strut six-wheel trolley type, in the connection condition between the landing gear and the fuselage, active loads need to be applied at each dummy wheel. The existing support methods cannot apply the required loads to each wheel, which requires replacing the loading device, greatly increasing the test workload and also increasing the risk of collision with the frame during aircraft attitude adjustment.
[0003] Therefore, it is desirable to have a technical solution to overcome or at least mitigate at least one of the above-mentioned defects of the prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0062] The single-strut six-wheel landing gear support loading system of the present application uses an oil-gas spring as the load-bearing and loading unit. The oil-gas spring load-bearing unit adopts a specially designed oil cylinder structure. Two liquid-filled rod chambers (chamber A, chamber B) mainly achieve loading, and a rod chamber (chamber C) communicating with the atmosphere ensures the movement stroke of the piston rod. The rodless chamber (chamber D) bears the load when in support and does not function during loading. The high-pressure gas chamber of the accumulator 8 is initially filled with high-pressure inert gas at the required pressure, and after being controlled by an electro-hydraulic reversing valve to communicate with the oil cylinder, it realizes the load impact during buffer emergency unloading. During loading, each oil-gas spring load-bearing unit is independent. When in support, the oil-gas spring load-bearing units in the front and rear parts of the landing gear strut are internally paralleled respectively, and then diagonally cross-connected to achieve statically determinate support and eliminate pitching oscillation. The principle of the interconnected support loading system of the oil-gas spring load-bearing unit of the single-strut six-wheel landing gear is as Figure 3 shown.
[0063] The second aspect of the present application provides a method for supporting and loading a single-strut six-wheel landing gear. Based on the above single-strut six-wheel landing gear support loading system, it includes:
[0064] In the height adjustment mode: close the ball valves on the load-bearing unit oil circuit and the connecting oil circuit of the oil-gas spring load-bearing unit, control the inlet and outlet oil circuits of the integrated module to fill or drain oil from chambers A and B, and at the same time, fill or drain oil from chamber D through the load-bearing unit oil circuit of the oil-gas spring load-bearing unit, so as to adjust the piston rod extension amount to a predetermined position. After the adjustment is completed, power off the integrated module and cut off the inlet and outlet oil circuits of the integrated module;
[0065] In the shutdown mode: close the ball valve on the load-bearing unit oil circuit of the oil-gas spring load-bearing unit, open the ball valve on the connecting oil circuit, and after the adjustment is completed, power off the electro-hydraulic reversing valve and the integrated module on the load-bearing unit oil circuit of the oil-gas spring load-bearing unit, and cut off the inlet and outlet oil circuits of the integrated module;
[0066] In the support mode: power off the electro-hydraulic reversing valve and the integrated module on the load-bearing unit oil circuit of the oil-gas spring load-bearing unit, open the ball valves on the load-bearing unit oil circuit and the connecting oil circuit of the oil-gas spring load-bearing unit, connect chambers D of the six oil-gas spring load-bearing units, parallel chambers A and B between the oil-gas spring load-bearing units of the middle axle and the rear axle, and then diagonally cross-connect them with chambers A and B of the oil-gas spring load-bearing unit of the front axle to achieve statically determinate support; in the support mode, when an emergency unloading occurs, power off and connect the electro-hydraulic reversing valve on the load-bearing unit oil circuit of the oil-gas spring load-bearing unit, the accumulator mitigates the load impact, and the oil fluid consumes the impact energy through the one-way throttle valve to protect the test piece safety to the greatest extent.
[0067] In the loading mode: close the ball valve on the load-bearing unit oil circuit of the oil-gas spring load-bearing unit. The electro-controlled reversing valve on the load-bearing unit oil circuit of the oil-gas spring load-bearing unit becomes inoperative. Chamber D is always connected to the inlet and outlet oil circuits of the integrated module through the one-way throttle valve. Control the inlet and outlet oil circuits of the integrated module to fill or drain oil from Chambers A and B to achieve active loading of the landing gear. When emergency unloading occurs, control the inlet and outlet oil circuits of the integrated module to drain oil from Chambers A and B to complete the unloading.
[0068] For the single-strut six-wheel landing gear support loading method of this application, when the height needs to be adjusted, close all ball valves. In the position control mode, control the integrated module to fill or drain oil from Chambers A and B, and at the same time fill or drain oil from Chamber D through the one-way throttle valve to adjust the piston rod extension to the required position. After the adjustment is completed, the integrated module is powered off and the inlet and outlet oil circuits are cut off. In the shutdown state, close ball valves ①-⑥, open the remaining ball valves, and all electro-controlled reversing valves are powered off, and the inlet and outlet oil of the integrated module is disconnected. In the support state, the inlet and outlet oil circuits of the integrated module are disconnected and inoperative. The electro-controlled reversing valve DT1 is in the energized closed state, and all ball valves are opened. The oil-gas spring load-bearing unit Chamber D is connected. The Chambers A and B between the oil-gas spring load-bearing units on the same side of the rear four wheels of the landing gear strut are connected in parallel, and then diagonally cross-connected with the Chambers A and B of the oil-gas spring load-bearing unit in front of the landing gear strut to achieve static support and eliminate pitch oscillation. Once emergency unloading occurs during the support process, the electro-controlled reversing valve DT1 is powered off and connected. The accumulator 8 mitigates the load impact, and the oil fluid consumes the impact energy through the one-way throttle valve to protect the test piece safety to the greatest extent. When applying an active load, close all ball valves. The electro-controlled reversing valve DT1 is inoperative. Chamber D is always connected to the return oil through the one-way throttle valve. DAT2 and DAT3 (or DAT4) in the integrated module are energized. The high-pressure oil controls the four hydraulic control reversing valves 1-1, 1-2, 2-1, and 2-2 to reverse. The high and low pressure oil hydraulic control reversing valves 2-1 and 2-2 enter Chambers A and B respectively to complete the active loading of the landing gear in the force control mode. When emergency unloading occurs, the electro-controlled reversing valves DT2 and DAT3 (or DAT4) are powered off and closed. The four hydraulic control reversing valves return to their initial positions under the action of the spring force. Chambers A and B are connected to the return oil through the hydraulic control reversing valves 1-1, 1-2 and the one-way throttle valve to complete the unloading.
[0069] The single-strut six-wheel landing gear support loading system and method of the present application can achieve landing gear support loading in the aircraft structural strength test of the single-strut six-wheel landing gear form. By setting an oil-gas spring bearing unit for each dummy wheel, independent loading can be achieved. After being coupled in a reasonable manner, a statically determinate support system that resists pitch oscillation can be formed. The present application has both the functions of test support and loading and can be quickly switched. The internal coupling of the system ensures statically determinate support and can effectively eliminate the change of the pitching moment before and after the landing gear strut and avoid pitch oscillation; it can effectively absorb the load impact during emergency unloading and attenuate energy, and can absorb the impact of the entire test system on the support point structure at the moment of emergency unloading to ensure the safety of the test piece structure; it can accurately adjust the aircraft attitude according to requirements; it can be conveniently extended and applied to other single-strut multi-wheel landing gear structures.
[0070] The above is only the specific implementation manner of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present application should be covered by the protection scope of the present application.
