Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of aircraft skins, and in particular to a large-size aircraft skin joining device and method. Background Art
[0002] Aircraft skins are the dimensional components that surround the aircraft's frame and are fixed to it with adhesives or rivets, forming the aircraft's aerodynamic shape. The resulting structure, formed by the skin and frame, possesses significant load-bearing capacity and rigidity, yet is lightweight, effectively bearing and transmitting aerodynamic loads. The skin, after receiving aerodynamic forces, transmits these forces to the attached fuselage and wing frames. This complex force distribution, coupled with direct contact with the outside world, requires not only high strength and good plasticity, but also a smooth surface and high corrosion resistance.
[0003] When the top skin of an aircraft is on a fixed frame, it is inconvenient to move the skin due to its heavy weight, and it is difficult to align the edges of the skin. Workers need to manually push it up for riveting. When the top skin is pushed by workers, the riveting operation may fail due to inconvenient operation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0036] To facilitate public understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to examples, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
[0037] Example 1
[0038] See also Figure 1-8 , a large-size aircraft skin matching device includes a longitudinal movable frame 1, a height adjustment beam 2, a lateral movable frame 3, a secondary adjustment plate 4 and an alignment adjustment plate 5. The lower end of the longitudinal movable frame 1 is paved with a slide rail, and the longitudinal movable frame 1 is slidably connected to the slide rail by a roller for longitudinal position adjustment of the longitudinal movable frame 1; height adjustment beams 2 and jacking mechanisms 6 are provided on both sides of the longitudinal movable frame 1, the height adjustment beam 2 is slidably connected to the longitudinal movable frame 1, and the jacking mechanism 6 is fixedly connected to the longitudinal movable frame 1, and the output end of the jacking mechanism 6 is fixed to the height adjustment beam 2 on the same side for height adjustment of the height adjustment beam 2. In order to make the movement of the height adjustment beam 2 smoother, limiting rollers are provided at both ends of the height adjustment beam 2, and the height adjustment beam 2 is slidably connected to the longitudinal movable frame 1 through the limiting rollers for reducing the friction between the height adjustment beam 2 and the longitudinal movable frame 1.
[0039] The longitudinal movable frame 1 can be pushed by the slide rail laid at the lower end of the longitudinal movable frame 1 to adjust the longitudinal position of the longitudinal movable frame 1, thereby realizing the adjustment of the longitudinal position of the skin; the height adjustment beam 2 can be pushed by the jacking mechanism 6 to drive the height adjustment beam 2 to move up and down; thereby realizing the first adjustment of the height position of the skin.
[0040] A transverse moving frame 3 is connected between the two height adjustment beams 2 via a transverse adjustment component, which is used to adjust the transverse position of the transverse moving frame 3 .
[0041] Specifically, the lateral adjustment component includes a drive motor 7, a lateral auxiliary light rod 8, a lateral screw 9 and a connecting piece 10. Two lateral auxiliary light rods 8 and a lateral screw 9 are respectively arranged between the two height adjustment beams 2. The lateral auxiliary light rod 8 is fixedly connected to the height adjustment beam 2, and the lateral screw 9 is rotatably connected to the height adjustment beam 2; a drive motor 7 is also fixed to the outside of one of the height adjustment beams 2, and the output end of the drive motor 7 is fixed to the lateral screw 9; six connecting pieces 10 are fixed to the upper end of the lateral moving frame 3 by screws, the four connecting pieces 10 located on both sides of the top of the lateral moving frame 3 are slidably connected to the two lateral auxiliary light rods 8, and the two connecting pieces 10 located in the middle of the lateral moving frame 3 are threadedly connected to the lateral screw 9.
[0042] The transverse screw 9 can be driven to rotate by starting the driving motor 7, so that the two connecting parts 10 can be connected to the transverse screw 9 through threaded connection, so that when the transverse screw 9 rotates, the transverse moving frame 3 is driven to move laterally, thereby realizing the adjustment of the transverse position of the skin; and the connection method between the connecting part 10 and the transverse moving frame 3 makes the installation and disassembly of the transverse moving frame 3 relatively simple.
[0043] The lower end of the transverse moving frame 3 is equipped with a secondary adjustment plate 4.
[0044] Among them, in order to facilitate the secondary adjustment of the height of the skin to achieve the effect of fine-tuning, a winding box 12 is fixed at the lower end of the horizontal moving frame 3, and a winding roller 13 is rotated inside the winding box 12. A driving motor 2 14 is fixed to one side of the winding box 12, and the output end of the driving motor 2 14 is fixed to the winding roller 13. A cable is wrapped around the outside of the winding roller 13, one end of the cable is fixed to the winding roller 13, and the other end of the cable is connected to the secondary adjustment plate 4 through a hook; two vertical auxiliary light rods 11 are slidably connected to both ends of the horizontal moving frame 3, and the lower end of the vertical auxiliary light rod 11 is detachably connected to the secondary adjustment plate 4.
[0045] By starting the second drive motor 14, the winding roller 13 can be driven to rotate inside the winding box 12, thereby causing the cable wrapped around the outside of the winding box 12 to be reeled in and released. The cable is connected to the secondary adjustment plate 4 through a hook, so that when the cable is reeled in and released, the secondary adjustment plate 4 is driven to move up and down, thereby performing secondary adjustment on the height of the skin to achieve a fine-tuning effect; and through the connection between the vertical auxiliary light rod 11 and the secondary adjustment plate 4, and the sliding of the vertical auxiliary light rod 11 and the winding roller 13, the height adjustment of the secondary adjustment plate 4 is more stable.
[0046] Among them, in order to realize the disassembly and separation of the secondary adjustment plate 4 and the horizontal moving frame 3, and to facilitate the replacement, cleaning and maintenance of the secondary adjustment plate 4, two limit bases 15 and two first fixing frames 16 are fixed at both ends of the upper end of the secondary adjustment plate 4. The two limit bases 15 are located between the two first fixing frames 16, and the lower end of the vertical auxiliary light rod 11 is plug-connected to the limit base 15. A first limit bolt 17 is passed through the two first fixing frames 16 at the same end of the secondary adjustment plate 4. The first limit bolt 17 and the limit base 15, the first limit bolt 17 and the vertical auxiliary light rod 11 are all plug-connected, and the first limit bolt 17 is fixed to the two first fixing frames 16 by a nut.
[0047] By plugging the vertical auxiliary light rod 11 into the limiting base 15, the first limiting bolt 17 limits the vertical auxiliary light rod 11, making it impossible for the vertical auxiliary light rod 11 to be separated from the limiting base 15, thereby achieving the fixing effect of the vertical auxiliary light rod 11 and the secondary adjustment plate 4; when the secondary adjustment plate 4 needs to be separated from the horizontal moving frame 3, the secondary adjustment plate 4 is first moved to the ground through the secondary height adjustment, and the first limiting bolt 17 is removed, so that the vertical auxiliary light rod 11 can be separated from the limiting base 15, the hook is separated from the secondary adjustment plate 4, the height of the horizontal moving frame 3 is increased, and the vertical auxiliary light rod 11 is pulled out from the limiting base 15, that is, the disassembly and separation of the secondary adjustment plate 4 and the horizontal moving frame 3 is completed.
[0048] One side of the secondary adjustment plate 4 is connected to the alignment adjustment plate 5 through an adjustment docking assembly. The lower ends of the secondary adjustment plate 4 and the alignment adjustment plate 5 are respectively fixed with vacuum suction cup 1 21 and vacuum suction cup 2 22, which are used to fix the aircraft skin. The skin edges are aligned by adjusting the docking assembly.
[0049] Specifically, the adjustment docking assembly includes a longitudinal auxiliary light rod 18, a longitudinal screw 19 and an adjustment dial 20. The secondary adjustment plate 4 is internally slidingly connected with the longitudinal auxiliary light rod 18 and the longitudinal screw 19. One end of the longitudinal auxiliary light rod 18 is fixedly connected to the alignment adjustment plate 5, and one end of the longitudinal screw 19 is rotatably connected to the alignment adjustment plate 5; the side of the secondary adjustment plate 4 away from the alignment adjustment plate 5 is rotatably connected to the adjustment dial 20, and the adjustment dial 20 is threadedly connected to the longitudinal screw 19; wherein, in order to prevent the alignment adjustment plate 5 from falling off, the longitudinal auxiliary light rod 18 and the longitudinal screw 19 are fixed with a limit baffle at one end away from the alignment adjustment plate 5, which is used to limit the adjustment of the alignment adjustment plate 5.
[0050] The skin to be fixed is adsorbed by the alignment adjustment plate 5, and the skin is adsorbed and fixed by the secondary adjustment plate 4. By rotating the adjustment dial 20 and the rotational connection with the secondary adjustment plate 4, and the threaded connection between the adjustment dial 20 and the longitudinal screw 19, when the adjustment dial 20 is rotated, the alignment adjustment plate 5 can be driven to move in the horizontal direction by the longitudinal screw 19. By moving the alignment adjustment plate 5, the skin to be fixed adsorbed by the alignment adjustment plate 5 is moved to the edge of the fixed skin and aligned and fitted, and then the riveting operation can be carried out to complete the fixation of the skin.
[0051] Specifically, in order to increase the fixing range of the skin when the skin is docked, so that the fixing of the skin is more stable, two first auxiliary frames 23 are set at both ends of the secondary adjustment plate 4, and two second auxiliary frames 24 are set at both ends of the alignment adjustment plate 5. The lower ends of the first auxiliary frame 23 and the second auxiliary frame 24 are both provided with auxiliary suction cups; the upper end of the first auxiliary frame 23 is fixed with a first connecting frame 27, and the end of the first connecting frame 27 away from the first auxiliary frame 23 is sleeved on the outer side of the first limiting bolt 17 and is rotatably connected to the first limiting bolt 17. The upper end of the second auxiliary frame 24 A second connecting frame 25 is fixed, and one end of the second connecting frame 25 away from the second auxiliary frame 24 is rotatably connected to the alignment adjustment plate 5; second limit bolts 28 are inserted at both ends of the upper end of the alignment adjustment plate 5, and the second limit bolt 28 and the alignment adjustment plate 5 are fixed by a bracket and a nut. The second connecting frame 25 is sleeved on the outside of the second limit bolt 28, and the second connecting frame 25 is rotatably connected to the alignment adjustment plate 5 through the second limit bolt 28; the interior of the second connecting frame 25 is rotatably connected to a connecting rod 26, and the other end of the connecting rod 26 is slidably connected to the first connecting frame 27.
[0052] After the skins are aligned and fitted through the above-mentioned adjustment of the docking assembly, the auxiliary suction cups at the lower ends of the first auxiliary frame 23 and the second auxiliary frame 24 can be used to adsorb the fixed skin and the skin to be fixed, making the riveting operation more stable; and when dealing with larger skins, the auxiliary suction cups can be used to increase the fixing range.
[0053] When the lateral moving frame 3 is disassembled and separated from the secondary adjustment plate 4, after the first limit bolt 17 is removed, the first connecting frame 27 loses connection with the secondary adjustment plate 4; the second limit bolt 28 at the upper end of the alignment adjustment plate 5 can be removed to disconnect the connection between the second connecting frame 25 and the alignment adjustment plate 5, thereby completing the disassembly of the auxiliary suction cup.
[0054] Method for joining large-size aircraft skins:
[0055] S1. Complete the assembly of the large-size aircraft skin using the above-mentioned assembly device and set it aside for use;
[0056] S2. The skin to be fixed is adsorbed by the vacuum suction cup 22 at the lower end of the alignment adjustment plate 5. The skin to be fixed can be moved to the vicinity of the fixed skin by longitudinal movement of the longitudinal movable frame 1, height adjustment of the height adjustment beam 2, and lateral movement of the lateral movable frame 3;
[0057] S3. Align the skin to be fixed with the fixed skin by adjusting the docking assembly, and fit the skin to be fixed with the fixed skin by secondary height adjustment between the lateral movable frame 3 and the secondary adjustment plate 4;
[0058] S4. Use the vacuum suction cup 21 at the lower end of the secondary adjustment plate 4 to suck and position the secondary adjustment plate 4 and the fixed skin, and then the riveting operation can be carried out.
