[0002] In the field of aviation brakes, the brake system is the last barrier for safe takeoff and landing of aircraft. It needs to be used thousands of times in complex and harsh environments. Among them, aircraft wheels are an important part of the aircraft brake system. Aircraft wheels are installed on the main landing gear of the aircraft for takeoff, landing, traction taxiing, ground taxiing, turning, landing braking and parking. These functions together ensure the safe operation of the aircraft and the comfort of passengers.
[0003] Typical wheel structures include split structures and bolted single-web structures. High-strength bolts are important parts that connect the various components of the wheel structure and bear the fatigue load and ultimate load of the aircraft. If problems such as bolt cracks, reduced bolt preload, bolt deformation and breakage occur during use, the stress and fatigue results of the bolts used to install and fix components will increase, leading to the risk of wheel leakage and reduced load-bearing capacity, which will directly affect the reliability of the wheel structure and cause safety accidents. Therefore, great caution must be exercised when designing and selecting high-strength bolts.
[0004] In order to avoid the problems of bolts loosening, breaking, etc. during use and ensure the landing brake safety of the aircraft, the present invention proposes a stress calculation method for high-strength bolts for aircraft wheels. Summary of the invention

[0063] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the high-strength bolt 3 connects the inner and outer half hubs through the matching gasket 4 and the nut 5.
[0064] This embodiment provides an example of stress analysis of high-strength bolts in a split wheel, and performs bolt stress calculation according to the calculation method in the invention content to verify the feasibility of this method for calculating high-strength bolt stress in a split wheel.
[0065] The bolt specification is M14 and the number of bolts is 16.
[0066] Step 1, calculating the external load caused by the tire inflation pressure;

[0078] Step 4, calculating the initial tension of a single high-strength bolt caused by the preload torque;
[0079]
[0080] Where M is the preload torque, d is the nominal diameter of the bolt, μ is the friction coefficient between the nut and the supporting surface of the connected part, and μ = 0.15 when lubricated.
[0081] In this embodiment, M = 60 N.m; the bolt specification is M14; μ = 0.17. The initial tension P of a single high-strength bolt caused by the preload torque is calculated as I =50420.17N.
[0082] Step 5, calculating the sum P of the external loads on the single high-strength bolt according to the inflation pressure of the single high-strength bolt calculated in step 2 and the external expansion tension of the tire foot of the single high-strength bolt caused by tire compression calculated in step 3;
[0083]
[0084] The calculated sum of external loads on a single high-strength bolt is P=11451.82N.

[0087] Among them, E I is the elastic modulus of the bolt, I is the bolt connection length.
[0088] In this embodiment, the bolt material is GH4169; I =70GPa; I = 70mm. The bolt stiffness coefficient C is calculated L =1.54E+08.
[0089] Step 7, calculate the stiffness coefficient of the connected parts;
[0090]
[0091] Among them, A B is the equivalent compressive area of the connected parts, d0 is the inner diameter of the hole of the connected part, D0=1.5d+αI B , I B is the total thickness of the connected parts under pressure, I d is the thickness of the gasket, α is determined by the material coefficient of the connected parts (steel α=0.1; cast iron α=0.125; aluminum alloy α=0.17), the material is steel α=0.1, the material is cast iron α=0.125, the material is aluminum alloy α=0.17, E B is the elastic modulus of the connected parts, E d is the elastic modulus of the gasket.

[0100]
[0101] The calculated bolt stress σ=339.73MPa.
[0102] Theoretical calculations and physical tests show that high-strength wheel bolts should be designed according to fatigue strength, which means:
[0103] When σ≥[σ 0.2 ], the bolt does not meet the fatigue requirements, when σ<[σ 0.2 ], the bolts meet the fatigue requirements. In this embodiment, the bolt material is GH4169, σ 0.2 =700MPa, satisfying σ<[σ 0.2 ], that is, the bolts meet the fatigue requirements.
