[0038] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0039] like Figure 1-8 As shown, the rotating shaft assembly includes a body connecting member 1, an axial locking end cover 2, an active rotating shaft 3, a wing connecting member 4, a locking sleeve 5, a passive rotating shaft 6, and a blocking end cover 7. The axial locking end cover 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the body connecting member 1 by bolts, the active rotating shaft 3 is sleeved and connected in the wing connecting member 4, one end of the locking sleeve 5 is sleeved and connected in the wing connecting member 4, and the other end is sleeved and connected in the body connecting member 1, and the wing connecting member 4 is fixedly connected to the wing of the aircraft. The blocking end cover 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the body connecting member 1 by bolts.

[0040] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the main body of the body connector 1 is a columnar structure. Four through-hole bosses 1-7 are arranged at intervals along the length direction on one side of the columnar structure. Through holes are arranged on the through-hole bosses 1-7. The through-hole bosses 1-7 are connected to the main body of the aircraft through bolts. A first sleeve, a second sleeve, and a third sleeve are arranged at intervals along the length direction on the other side of the columnar structure. The centers of the three sleeves are in the same straight line, and the line connecting the three centers is parallel to the columnar structure. A first threaded hole 1-1 is arranged on the top end face of the first sleeve. Fig. 9 As shown, the axial locking end cover 2 is a flange structure as a whole. The cylindrical sleeve of the flange structure is connected in the first sleeve. The countersunk screw passes through the countersunk screw hole 2-1 and then is screwed into the first threaded hole 1-1 to fix the flange plate to the top surface of the first sleeve. Thus, the axial locking end cover 2 is fixed to the first sleeve. Two circular holes are provided on the cylindrical end surface of the axial locking end cover 2, and the first spring 2-3 is provided in the circular hole. One end of the conical pin 2-2 is slidably sleeved and connected in the circular hole, and the other end extends out of the cylinder to contact one end surface of the active rotating shaft 3. The conical pin 2-2 is a cylindrical structure with one end closed, and the open end faces the circular hole on the end surface of the locking end cover 2. One end of the first spring 2-3 is connected to the bottom surface of the circular hole, and the other end is connected to the inner bottom surface of the circular hole of the conical pin 2-2. Two axial pin holes 3-1 are correspondingly provided on the end surface of the active rotating shaft 3. When the active rotating shaft 3 is rotated to the right position, under the elastic force of the first spring 2-3, the conical pin 2-2 extends into the axial pin hole 3-1 to lock the active rotating shaft 3.

[0041] A radial pin hole 1-3 and a process hole 1-4 are provided on both sides of the center of the second sleeve. The process hole 1-4 is located outside the radial pin hole 1-3, and the axis of the radial pin hole 1-3 coincides with the axis of the process hole 1-4. The process hole 1-4 is provided to eject the bidirectional elastic pin 3-4 through a fine needle after the active rotating main shaft 3 is locked, so as to realize repeated use of multiple locking. The bidirectional elastic pin 3-4 is provided in the pin hole on the active rotating shaft 3 and can slide and move in the pin hole. Specifically, as Figure 4 As shown, the bidirectional elastic pin 3-4 includes two sleeve-shaped second conical pins 3-4-1 with one end closed and a second spring 3-4-2. The two ends of the second spring 3-4-2 are respectively connected to the inner bottom surfaces of the two second conical pins 3-4-1. A second threaded hole 1-6 is provided on the bottom end surface of the third sleeve, and a blocking end cover 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom end surface of the third sleeve by bolts.

[0042] The active rotating main shaft 3 passes through the second sleeve, and the bidirectional elastic pin 3-4 is arranged at the overlapped position of the active rotating main shaft 3 and the second sleeve. One end of the active rotating main shaft 3 with the axial pin hole 3-1 extends into the first sleeve and is rotatably connected with the first sleeve.

[0043] like Figure 5-6 As shown, the wing connector 4 includes a fourth sleeve, a fifth sleeve, and a connecting portion 4-3. The fourth sleeve and the fifth sleeve are concentric and spaced apart, and both sleeves are connected to one side of the columnar structure, and the other side of the columnar structure is connected to four connecting portions 4-3. The connecting portion 4-3 is fixedly connected to the wing of the aircraft by bolts, whereby the wing connector 4 is fixedly connected to the wing of the aircraft. The active rotating shaft 3 is integrally arranged in the wing connector 4, one end of which is connected to the fourth sleeve, and the other end passes through the fifth sleeve and then extends into the first sleeve to contact the first conical pin 2-2. As shown Figure 3 As shown, the active rotating shaft 3 is provided with two connecting keys 3-2, which are engaged in the key slots of the fourth sleeve and the fifth sleeve, connecting the active rotating shaft 3 and the wing connecting member 4 together so that the two can rotate synchronously. Two driving torsion springs 3-3 are also provided on the active rotating shaft 3, one end of the driving torsion spring 3-3 is connected to the torsion spring engaging slot 3-5 on the active rotating shaft 3, and the other end is connected to the column structure of the body connecting member 1. The driving torsion spring 3-3 can make the active rotating shaft 3 rotate relative to the body connecting member 1, thereby driving the wing connecting member 4 to rotate relative to the body connecting member 1, completing the rotation, folding and unfolding action of the wing of the aircraft.

[0044] like Figure 7-8As shown, a third spring 4-2 is also provided in the fourth sleeve of the wing connector 4, one end of the third spring 4-2 is connected to the fourth sleeve, and the other end is pressed against one end face of the passive rotating shaft 6, and the passive rotating shaft 6 is entirely arranged in the fourth sleeve. The other end face of the passive rotating shaft 6 is pressed against one end face of the locking sleeve 5, and the other end of the locking sleeve 5 extends into the third sleeve of the body connector 1, and the bottom end face of the third sleeve is provided with a second threaded hole 1-6, and the blocking end cover 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the third sleeve by bolts to block the locking sleeve 5. Thus, one end of the locking sleeve 5 is in the fourth sleeve of the wing connector 4 and can rotate relative to the fourth sleeve, and the other end is in the third sleeve of the body connector 1 and is fixedly connected to the body connector 1.

[0045] A boss slider 6-1 is provided along the length direction of the passive rotating shaft 6, and the boss slider 6-1 is a fan-shaped boss protruding from the side of the passive rotating shaft 6. The fourth sleeve is also provided with a fan-shaped groove 4-4 along the length direction of the axis. When the passive rotating shaft 6 is placed in the fourth sleeve, the boss slider 6-1 is clamped in the fan-shaped groove 4-4. Therefore, the passive rotating shaft 6 can rotate synchronously with the wing connecting member 4. A through-hole boss 5-1 is provided on the outer side of the locking sleeve 5. After the bolt passes through the through-hole boss 5-1, it is screwed with the threaded through hole 1-5 on the body connecting member 1, so that the locking sleeve 5 is fixedly connected to the body connecting member 1. A fan-shaped groove is also provided at the end of the locking sleeve 5 that contacts the passive rotating shaft 6, and the boss slider 6-1 can be clamped in the fan-shaped groove of the locking sleeve 5.

[0046] When the wing is in the initial folding state, the entire mechanism is in the cabin or the initial locking structure cannot be freely unfolded, the wing connector 4 and the body connector 1 are at an angle of 90°, and the third spring 4-2 is in a compressed state. At this time, the end face of the passive rotating shaft 6 is pressed against the end face of the locking sleeve 5, the second spring 3-4-2 is in a compressed state, the bidirectional elastic pin 3-4 is compressed in the active rotating shaft 3, the first spring 2-3 is in a compressed state, the first conical pin 2-2 is compressed in the axial locking end cover 2, and the driving torsion spring 3-3 is in a torsion state.

[0047] When the wing is unfolded, the active rotating shaft 3 rotates automatically under the elastic force of the driving torsion spring 3-3, and the active rotating shaft 3 drives the wing connecting member 4 to rotate, and the wing connecting member 4 drives the passive rotating shaft 6 to rotate, and of course, it also drives the wing to rotate and unfold. When the active rotating shaft 3 rotates to a suitable angle, the first conical pin 2-2 is aligned with the axial pin hole 3-1, and the first spring 2-3 pushes the first conical pin 2-2 into the axial pin hole 3-1, and the active rotating shaft 3 and the body connecting member 1 complete the first locking, that is, the wing connecting member 4 and the body connecting member 1 complete the first locking; at the same time, the bidirectional elastic pin 3-4 is aligned with the radial pin hole 1-3, and under the elastic force of the second spring 3-4-3, the bidirectional elastic pin 3-4 extends into the radial pin hole 1-3, and the active rotating shaft 3 and the body connecting member 1 complete the second locking, that is, the wing connecting member 4 completes the second locking with the body connecting member 1; at the same time, the boss slider 6-1 is aligned with the fan-shaped groove at the end of the locking sleeve 5, the third spring 4-2 is extended, pushing the passive rotating shaft 6 to move, and the boss slider 6-1 slides along the fan-shaped groove of the fourth sleeve, and a part of the boss slider 6-1 is stuck in the fan-shaped groove at the end of the locking sleeve 5, completing the clamping and locking of the passive rotating shaft 6 and the locking sleeve 5. Because a part of the boss slider 6-1 is also stuck in the fan-shaped groove of the fourth sleeve of the wing connecting member 4, the third locking of the wing connecting member 4 and the body connecting member 1 is also completed. In this embodiment, when the wing is folded, the angle between the wing connecting member 4 and the body connecting member 1 is 90°. Figure 1 When the wing is unfolded, the angle between the wing connector 4 and the fuselage connector 1 is 180°. Fig.10 To ensure the angle after unfolding, a stopper can be set on the wing connector 4, and when the wing connector 4 is rotated into place, the stopper abuts against the body connector 1 to complete the limit.

[0048] In addition, in order to facilitate the connection of the drive torsion spring 3-3 during the assembly process, a portion of the fourth sleeve and the fifth sleeve is cut off, and after the drive torsion spring 3-3 is installed, the missing portion is sealed with a process cover 8. In order to facilitate the installation of the locking sleeve 5, a notch needs to be cut in the third sleeve to facilitate the connection between the through-hole boss 5-1 and the threaded through hole 1-5. The rotating spindle 3 is assembled from the first sleeve. In order to facilitate the assembly of the rotating spindle 3, the inner walls of the first sleeve and the second sleeve need to be machined with a keyway 1-2 to facilitate the passage of the connection key 3-2.

[0049] The above are only preferred specific implementation modes 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 solutions and inventive concepts 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.
