Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of hydraulic testing technology for civil aircraft, and in particular to an integrated testing system for pump sources of multiple subsystems in civil aircraft. Background Technology

[0002] The hydraulic system of civil aircraft is a key factor in ensuring flight safety and improving operational performance, providing the necessary power for various aircraft operations. These systems include, but are not limited to, flight control systems, landing gear retraction and extension, flap adjustment, and braking systems, all of which rely on a stable and efficient pump source. In existing civil aircraft designs, pump sources mainly include engine-driven pumps, electric pumps, and power conversion devices, each responsible for providing hydraulic power to the aircraft. However, these pump sources differ significantly in design and operation. Engine-driven pumps are typically directly connected to the aircraft engine, and their speed and flow rate are affected by the engine's operating conditions; electric pumps are driven by electric motors, offering better controllability and stability; and power conversion devices are responsible for converting and distributing energy between different pump sources. The vast differences in the driving source, operating load, and full life-cycle load spectrum of these pump sources make it difficult to conduct comprehensive performance evaluations in a unified testing environment. For example, engine-driven pumps may operate at high speeds, while electric pumps may need to operate stably under various speeds and loads. This complexity means that traditional hydraulic pump comprehensive performance test benches cannot meet testing requirements, thus becoming a long-standing technical challenge in the aviation industry. Furthermore, the pump power range of aircraft hydraulic systems is extremely wide, from low-power auxiliary systems to high-power main actuators, which places higher demands on the design of test systems. While using high-power motor-driven test systems can cover a broad range of testing needs, it leads to a significant increase in cost. At the same time, during testing, especially under conditions of large fluctuations in pump power, there is significant energy waste. This energy waste not only increases testing costs but also hinders environmental protection and sustainable development. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the challenges of testing pump sources in multiple subsystems of civil aircraft, this invention proposes an integrated testing system for pump sources in civil aircraft. This system can simulate the operating conditions of different pump sources, enabling comprehensive performance evaluation of engine-driven pumps, electric pumps, and power conversion devices.

[0037] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. The objectives and effects of the present invention will become clearer as a result. The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

The engine-driven pump drive module includes: a variable frequency motor, a first mounting bracket, and an engine-driven pump (EDP); the variable frequency motor drives the EDP. The electric pump drive module includes: a DC motor, a second mounting bracket, and an electric motor pump (EMP); the DC motor drives the EMP. The EDP and EMP are collectively referred to as the drive end. The power transfer unit connection module includes: a two-stage clutch, connecting pipes, and a third mounting bracket. The first, second, and third mounting brackets respectively support the corresponding modules. The connecting pipes are used to transmit power or control signals from one module to another, serving as the transmission medium for power and control, and ensuring system stability. A dual-stage clutch is a clutch structure used in mechanical transmission systems to perform specific power engagement and disengagement. The first-stage clutch is mainly responsible for initially connecting the power source and the transmission system. It is activated when testing power conversion devices and its function is to achieve smooth power transmission and reduce shock under low power output or low load (corresponding to distribution modes 3 and 4 below). The second-stage clutch is activated when the system requires higher power output or enters a high-load working state (corresponding to distribution mode 5 below) and is mainly responsible for transmitting greater torque to the output end.

[0039] The engine-driven pump drive module and the electric pump drive module are controlled by a parallel drive module and connected to the input terminal of the PTU via a PTU connection module, thereby enabling energy transfer from the EDP and EMP through the PTU. The drive terminal of the PTU can be either the EDP or the EMP. The energy recovery module is connected to both the EDP and EMP. The drive distribution module is connected to the parallel drive module and is used to intelligently distribute power to the drive terminals and control the parallel drive module to execute the corresponding control mode.

[0040] The energy recovery module is used to recover unused power from the hydraulic system of the integrated pump-source test system for multi-subsystems of civil aircraft, convert it into electrical energy, and reuse it.

When testing a high-power pump source, the two-stage clutch engages, the differential gearbox actuates, connecting the output of the EDP to the input of the PTU connection module, and the output of the EMP to the input of the PTU connection module, jointly driving the high-power pump source. Excess power is recovered through the energy recovery module. When testing the PTU, the first-stage clutch engages, and the differential gearbox actuates.

[0042] The drive allocation module calculates the actual required drive power and allocates it to the engine drive pump drive module and the electric pump drive module, thereby achieving intelligent matching of the output power at the drive end and meeting the actual testing requirements of the pump source. In this embodiment, the test system has the following five allocation methods to test different objects:

The DC motor drives the EMP to operate and load the load. Excess power is recovered through the energy recovery module; the electricity stored in the energy recovery module can also be used for EMP operation.

[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, allocation mode 3 is used for testing the PTU. In this allocation mode, the following are activated: the engine-driven pump drive module, the electric pump drive module, the power conversion device connection module, and the PTU. The DC motor drives the EMP to operate and load the load. Simultaneously, the output of the EMP is connected to the input of the PTU through the power conversion device connection module, allowing the EMP to drive the PTU. The output of the PTU is connected to the input of the EDP, and the power from the EMP is transmitted through the PTU, working together with the variable frequency motor to drive the EDP, thus ensuring the normal operation of the load.

[0046] like Figure 5As shown, allocation mode 4 is used for testing the PTU. In this allocation mode, the following are activated: the engine-driven pump drive module, the electric pump drive module, the power conversion device connection module, and the PTU. The variable frequency motor drives the EDP to operate and load the load. Simultaneously, the output terminal of the EDP is connected to the input terminal of the PTU through the power conversion device connection module, allowing the EDP to drive the PTU. The output terminal of the PTU is connected to the input terminal of the EMP. The power from the EDP is transmitted through the PTU, working together with the DC motor to drive the EMP, thus ensuring the normal operation of the load.

[0047] like Figure 6 As shown, allocation mode 5 is used to test the high-power pump source. In this allocation mode, the following modules are activated: engine-driven pump drive module, electric pump drive module, PTU, power conversion device connection module, and energy recovery module. The variable frequency motor drives the EDP, and the DC motor drives the EMP. The output of the EDP is connected to the input of the PTU via the power conversion device connection module, and the output of the EMP is connected to the input of the PTU via the same module. The output of the PTU is connected to the high-power pump source. The EDP and EMP jointly drive the high-power pump source, and the power of the EDP and EMP is allocated according to the drive allocation module. Excess power is recovered through the energy recovery module.

[0048] like Figure 7 As shown, when the integrated pump source test system for multiple subsystems of civil aircraft is tested, its external control terminal includes: a load simulation unit, a test control unit, a data analysis and storage unit, and a network connection unit.

[0049] The load simulation unit is responsible for simulating load characteristics under actual working conditions and inputting the data into the test control unit. Load characteristics include load variation, load torque, and load pressure. Through accurate load simulation, it provides a test environment close to actual working conditions for the test system (primarily controlling the load end, i.e., controlling the controlled object), ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the test.

[0050] The test control unit is responsible for the automated control of the entire test process, including: starting or stopping the test procedure, operating the drive distribution module, setting parameters for the drive and load ends, and monitoring the test system status. It ensures that the test proceeds according to the predetermined program and parameters, achieving automated and intelligent control of the test process.

[0051] The network connection unit provides connectivity between the test system and external networks, enabling remote access, transmission, and sharing of data. This facilitates remote monitoring, analysis, and report distribution of test data, while also supporting remote fault diagnosis and technical support.

[0052] The data analysis and storage unit collects various data generated by the test system during the test through the network connection unit, including pressure, flow rate, temperature, time, etc.; analyzes, stores and manages this data, and feeds it back to the test control unit, providing raw data support for subsequent data analysis, report generation and test result evaluation, and ensuring the integrity and traceability of the data.

[0053] The test control unit converts the operating conditions input by the load simulation unit into load-side control commands, simulates load characteristics, and inputs them into the test system. The data analysis and storage unit collects and analyzes the test process data, which is then processed by the test control unit to determine whether the test system is operating safely according to the operating conditions set by the load simulation unit. If not, the data is fed back to the load simulation unit for parameter adjustment.
