Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of composite blade manufacturing, specifically to a C-shaped blade root gasket adhesive assembly device. Background Technology
[0002] As a core component of helicopter rotor systems, rotor blades mostly employ advanced all-composite material structures, with high assembly requirements at the blade root and rotor hub. Currently, there is a C-shaped rotor blade root structure where composite gaskets are glued to the outer side of the root bushing. After assembly, the overall height h and single-sided thickness h1 have high dimensional accuracy requirements, and the top and bottom surfaces of the composite gaskets must maintain a high degree of perpendicularity to the holes in the metal bushing at the blade root. Because machining composite gaskets can lead to defects such as delamination, the dimensions and perpendicularity of the aforementioned composite gaskets must be guaranteed through a single adhesive curing process. Traditional, experience-based direct adhesive bonding methods cannot guarantee consistent quality across batches. This invention addresses the high assembly requirements of the composite gaskets on the inner and outer sides of the metal bushing at the C-shaped rotor blade root. Summary of the Invention
