Description

[0002] The fireproof sealing property of the cargo cabin is crucial in the design of a helicopter. If a fire occurs in the cargo cabin, the fire in the cabin will spread to the passenger cabin, causing casualties, and will spread to the tail beam, causing equipment damage. During the flight of the aircraft, the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the cabin door and the cabin door sealing rubber strip causes deformation, which easily leads to poor sealing and causes oxygen to enter the cargo cabin. When the cargo cabin does not have fireproof sealing conditions, it is easily affected by a large amount of airflow, causing the fire to be larger or causing harmful smoke and other toxic gases to enter the passenger cabin.

[0003] Therefore, it is crucial to achieve the fireproof sealing property of the cargo cabin under the premise of ensuring the air convection path during the deformation of the cabin door during the flight of the aircraft. SUMMARY

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0066] The present invention is further described in detail below through specific implementation methods and drawings.

[0067] This invention proposes a fireproof and sealed cargo hold structure and a fireproof and sealed design method for cargo hold door sealing strips. These structures can contain flames within the hold, preventing them from reaching the passenger cabin and tail boom. Under the action of aerodynamic loads during flight, the cargo hold door maintains a reliable seal, preventing new oxygen from entering the hold and thus increasing the duration of the flame. The interior trim and structural components within the cargo hold have been rigorously tested in accordance with airworthiness regulations and have been proven to meet the five-minute fire resistance requirement, thus ensuring the fireproof and sealed nature of the cargo hold. The specific implementation process includes the following steps:

[0068] The first step is to define the boundaries of the fireproof and sealed cargo hold:

[0069] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, the cargo hold is located inside the fuselage structure 1, and its fireproof sealing area 8 is surrounded by the cabin interior 2, floor 3, cargo hold door 4, front frame passage door 5 and rear frame passage door 6 to form a fireproof sealing boundary 7.

[0070] The second step is the fireproof sealing design of the front frame passage door 5:

[0071] like Figure 3 As shown, in order to facilitate personnel to enter the cargo hold for maintenance, the front frame is designed with a left detachable access door 8, a middle detachable access door 9, and a right detachable access door 10.

[0072] likeFigure 4 As shown, the upper part of the middle detachable passage door 9 is connected to the interior 2 and the front frame web 11 through a bracket 12; a strip-shaped fireproof sealing toothed rubber strip 14 is arranged between the middle detachable passage door 9 and the bracket 12, and is connected by blind nuts 16 and bolts considering the limitations of the installation space. In order to meet the requirements of the blind nuts for the countersink thickness, an aluminum alloy reinforcement plate 15 is added; a flat rubber strip 13 is arranged between the bracket 12 and the interior 2, and is connected by support plate nuts and bolts; a strip-shaped fireproof sealing toothed rubber strip 14 is arranged between the bracket 12 and the front frame web 11, and is connected by support plate nuts and bolts.

[0073] The bracket 12 is a composite laminated structure, and the material used is a bidirectional prepreg glass cloth ECS2259.20 with self-extinguishing function and high temperature resistance of 180°C. The surface of the part is sprayed with primer ECS2067 and then sprayed with polyurethane fire retardant topcoat ECS2066; Figure 5 As shown, the strip-shaped fireproof sealing toothed strip 14 has four tooth-shaped protrusions, and its material should be fire-resistant and self-extinguishing, with a compression ratio between 25% and 30% (sufficient elastic variation range can ensure that the web surface with slightly lower rigidity is sufficient to withstand the impact of flames without leaking harmful gases); the flat strip 13 is made of high-temperature resistant, glass fiber-coated neoprene ASNA4110.

[0074] like Figure 6 As shown, the lower part of the middle detachable passage door 9 is connected to the floor 3 and the front frame web 11 through an aluminum alloy angle 17; a strip-shaped fireproof sealing toothed rubber strip 14 is arranged between the middle detachable passage door 9 and the aluminum alloy angle 17; the floor 3 adopts an aluminum panel aluminum honeycomb structure; a strip-shaped fireproof sealing toothed rubber strip 14 is arranged between the left detachable passage door 8 and the front frame web 11, which is screwed together by bolts and support plate nuts; a strip-shaped fireproof sealing toothed rubber strip 14 is arranged between the middle detachable passage door 9 and the left detachable passage door 8, which is screwed together by bolts and support plate nuts.

[0075] Aisle doors are composite structures with laminated and honeycomb sandwich areas that meet strength requirements. Although all materials used are self-extinguishing, their typical structures must still undergo a 5-minute fire resistance test in accordance with the airworthiness requirements of CCAR 29-855.

[0092] As shown in Figure 15 , Figure 16 , Figure 17 , Figure 18 , Figure 19 The typical structure shown in the figure has passed the verification test of fire resistance of 5min meeting airworthiness requirements;

[0093] Fourth step, fireproof sealing design of cargo door 4:

[0094] As shown in Figure 19As shown, the fireproof sealing function between the cargo door 4 and the door frame 23 is realized by the fireproof sealing rubber strip 24, and the interior decoration 2 is screwed with the door frame 23; the fireproof sealing rubber strip 24 is a hollow O-shaped ring structure, and considering the limitation of its forming process after adding fireproof cloth, it is cut at a 45° angle in the middle part of the left and right sides and is divided into two parts; as shown in Figure 20 As shown, the upper half of the fireproof sealing rubber strip 25 is bonded with the door frame 23 to better play a sealing effect (the sealing contact surface is away from the side of the door frame, avoiding the displacement of the rubber strip during the closing of the door), and the lower half of the fireproof sealing rubber strip 26 is bonded with the door body of the cargo door 4 to avoid wear of the rubber strip during the loading and transportation of goods; when assembling, the upper half of the fireproof sealing rubber strip 25 and the lower half of the fireproof sealing rubber strip 26 should be ensured to have no gap.

[0095] Step 5: Fireproof sealing design of the cargo door sealing rubber strip:

[0096] (1) As shown in Figure 21 , the huge deformation of the cargo door will not cause the connection between the sealing strip and the door to fail, thereby causing new oxygen to enter the cargo compartment and making the flame burn more fiercely; the pressure difference on both sides of the sealing strip will not cause the connection between the sealing strip and the door to fail, thereby causing new oxygen to enter the cargo compartment and making the flame burn more fiercely.

[0097] A. Compression (e1) of the cargo door sealing strip under normal conditions:

[0098] Assumption: There is no pressure difference on both sides of the sealing strip (P1=P2), and when the cargo door is closed, the compression amount of the sealing strip is:

[0099] e1=Hs-H1

[0100] Hs: height of the rubber strip; H1: height of the rubber strip after compression;

[0101] B. Displacement (dep2) of the cargo door under negative pressure conditions:

[0102] Assumption: Under negative pressure conditions, the cargo door edge reaches the maximum displacement value in the H1 direction

[0103] Referring to the strength calculation report, under the condition of bearing a certain limit load (F1), the finite element analysis will provide the maximum displacement value (dep1) of the cargo door edge in the H1 direction:

[0104] The maximum negative pressure value P2 of the door is (1 / 2)Cp*ρ*V2;

[0105] ρ is the air density; S is the surface area of the cargo door; V is the air flow velocity;

[0106] Therefore, when bearing the pressure P2, the limit load F2 on the cargo door is:

[0107] F2 = P2 * S,

[0108] At the maximum negative pressure, the edge displacement is the largest along the H1 direction, and the ratio dep2 is:

[0109] dep2 = (F2 / F1) * dep1,

[0110] Considering that the door and the structure are not completely fitted, the assembly error is 1mm:

[0111] dep3 = dep2 + 1,

[0112] C. The remaining compression amount (e2) of the cargo door seal under negative pressure:

[0113] Under negative pressure, the compression amount of the cargo door seal decreases due to the displacement of the door along the H1 direction:

[0114] e2 = e1 - dep2

[0115] Under the maximum negative pressure, the remaining compression amount e2 of the cargo door seal is ≥1-2mm, which can ensure effective sealing.

[0116] (2) As shown in Figure 22 , the pressure difference on both sides of the seal will not cause the connection between the seal and the door to fail: when the deformation of the cargo door at both ends reaches a certain value, it will not fail; the pressure difference on both sides of the seal causes the seal to twist and deform.

[0117] In order to demonstrate that the seal will not rotate around its axis, causing the seal to fail to connect with the door, a comparative analysis must be performed.

[0118] A. Due to the different pressures P2 / P1, the load on the seal is limited (Fdep):

[0119] Under the maximum negative pressure, considering that the cargo door is not equal to the structure, the distance H2 between the door and the structure is:

[0120] H2 = H1 + dep3,

[0121] Therefore, the limit load Fdep on the seal when P1 = 0 is:

[0122] Fdep = P2 * H2,

[0123] B. Due to the different pressures P2 / P1, the load on the seal is limited (Fdep):

[0124] In order to calculate the friction force Ffric of the rubber strip, the reaction force Fps acting on the sealing strip needs to be calculated; the Fps belongs to the mechanical inherent characteristics of the rubber strip, and is related to the material of the rubber strip and the deformation amount thereof, and the reaction force of the rubber strip is inquired according to the residual compression amount e2 of the sealing strip (the rubber strip manufacturer will give the reaction force-displacement curve of the rubber strip tested by a press):

[0125] Ffric=Fps*Cf,

[0126] Cf: friction coefficient;

[0127] The condition that the rubber strip is not failed in connection is that the maximum pressure difference is borne on the inner and outer sides of the rubber strip:

[0128] Ffric>Fdep,

[0129] Sixth step, air convection passage design inside the cargo compartment:

[0130] Two Φ6mm process holes on the left and right floor inside the cargo compartment are borrowed to ensure that a little air flow exists in the bottom of the helicopter, a small hole in the area ensures that a little air flow exists in the bottom of the helicopter, and the air flow is not sealed and will not affect the sealing performance of the cargo compartment;

[0131] Sealant should be used between all the assembled and bonded surfaces, rivets in non-electrically connected parts should be dipped in sealant and riveted, and the head or tail of the bolt should be sealed and sealed with sealant; fireproof sealing ring or fireproof sealing foam should be used for hole blocking at all system through holes; the composite parts are sprayed with fireproof paint; high-temperature-resistant elastic rubber is selected for the sealing strip; the door cover is installed and fixed by fireproof steel bolts.

[0132] The above only expresses the embodiments of the present application, and the description is more specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as a limitation on the scope of the patent. It should be noted that for ordinary skilled persons in the art, a number of modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. In addition, the parts not described in detail in the present application are all conventional technologies.
