DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0010] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an electrically controlled brake valve for an aircraft comprises a valve body 1, a cavity 2, a motor assembly 3, a pressure sensor 4, a Hall sensor 5 and a central controller, wherein the valve body 1 is located at the front end of the cavity 2, the motor assembly 3 is installed in the cavity 2, the motor assembly 3 is connected to the valve body 1, and is used to provide hydraulic pressure to the valve body 1, there are three pressure sensors 4, the pressure sensors 4 are installed on the valve body 1, and are used to detect the hydraulic pressure of the brake valve, there are three Hall sensors 5, the Hall sensors 5 are installed at the corresponding positions of the cavity 2 and the motor assembly 3, and are used to detect the stroke of the motor assembly 3 and control the movement range of the motor assembly 3, the pressure sensor 4 and the Hall sensor 5 are connected to the central controller, and the central controller is used to receive sensor signals, and the central controller transmits the signals to the central controller. The signal is fed back to the flight control computer, and the pulse width modulation signal output by the flight control computer is transmitted to the brake valve to control the operation of the motor assembly 3, so that the valve body 1 outputs a stable hydraulic pressure proportional to the pulse width modulation signal. For example, if the pulse width modulation signal takes a value of 0~12V, the corresponding output pressure is 0~3Mpa. If the pulse width modulation signal takes 6V, the output pressure is 1.5Mpa. Two-way communication is adopted between the brake valve and the flight control computer, including serial communication and PWM communication. The flight control computer outputs a pulse width modulation signal to the brake valve, and the brake valve feeds back the feedback signal and the fault signal to the flight control computer through the serial communication. The central controller is provided with a fault feedback function. If the two signals of the sensor are the same and the other signal is different, the fault signal of the branch with different signals is transmitted to the flight control computer, which is beneficial to signal processing.

[0011] The pressure sensor 4 is installed on the valve body 1 at 90° in the radial direction of the valve body 1 to ensure accurate pressure detection data; the Hall sensor 5 is installed along the length direction of the cavity 2 to ensure accurate stroke of the motor assembly 3 in the detection cavity 2.

[0012] When in use, the central controller receives the voltage signal from the pressure sensor and the Hall sensor and transmits it to the flight control computer. The flight control computer records the hydraulic pressure of the valve body in real time, and transmits the pulse width modulation signal that controls the operation of the motor assembly to the brake valve based on the hydraulic pressure and the stroke data of the motor assembly. The control motor assembly outputs a stable hydraulic pressure proportional to the pulse width modulation signal, thereby improving the braking performance and safety of the brake valve. Since three pressure sensors and three Hall sensors are used, failure of the brake valve due to failure of one of the sensors can be avoided, effectively reducing the failure rate.

[0013] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
