Movable structure function test is the most effective method for checking and testing failure mode, safety and reliability of wing surface retraction and release, and is an important ground verification test before aircraft finalization. The movable structure function test plays an irreplaceable role in the process of developing a new aircraft and is an important part of aircraft structural strength test.

In order to prevent the movable structure from being damaged due to tilting of the loading frame at the limit position and accidental failure of the driving mechanism of the frame, a stopper is arranged at the limit position of the loading frame. When the loading frame moves to the limit position, the stopper limits rotation of the loading frame, thereby protecting the movable structure. The existing protection device can protect the movable structure from tilting of the loading frame at the limit position, but cannot protect the movable structure from tilting of the loading frame at any position.
