[0035] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 4 This application is described in further detail.

[0036] The present application provides an adjustable deceleration device, comprising: a grille sleeve 1, a grille sleeve actuator 7, a clamping plate 2 and a clamping plate actuator 10.

[0037] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, a slide rail 3 and a grille sleeve joint 5 are provided on the grille sleeve 1 , one end of a grille sleeve actuator 7 is connected to the aircraft, and the other end is connected to the grille sleeve joint 5 .

[0038] In this embodiment, the grille cover 1 is a rectangular parallelepiped with a receiving cavity and an opening on one side. The grille cover 1 may include a front grille plate, a rear grille plate, an upper sealing plate, a lower sealing plate, a left sealing plate and a right sealing plate, and the opening is arranged on the left sealing plate. The front and rear grille plates are respectively composed of a horizontal grille and a vertical grille staggered. A slide rail 3 is respectively arranged on the inner side of the upper sealing plate and the lower sealing plate of the grille cover 1, wherein the length of the slide rail 3 is greater than the length of the grille cover 1. A plurality of grille cover joints 5 are arranged on the left sealing plate of the grille cover 1 along the height direction.

[0039] In this embodiment, a grille sleeve connecting rod 9 is installed on the grille sleeve actuator 7 , and the grille sleeve actuator 7 is hinged to the grille sleeve joint 5 through the grille sleeve connecting rod 9 .

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, a slide rail rod 4 and a splint joint 6 are provided on the splint 2, the splint 2 is nested inside the grille sleeve 1, and the slide rail rod 4 of the splint 2 is slidably installed in the slide rail track 3 of the grille sleeve 1; one end of the splint actuator 10 is connected to the aircraft, and the other end is connected to the splint joint 6.

[0041] In this embodiment, the clamping plate 2 is in a rectangular parallelepiped shape. A slide rail rod 4 is provided at the top and bottom of the clamping plate 2, respectively, wherein the length of the slide rail rod 4 is greater than the length of the clamping plate 2. The clamping plate joint 6 is provided at the middle position of one side of the clamping plate 2.

[0042] In this embodiment, a splint connecting rod 8 is installed on the splint actuator 10 , and the splint actuator 10 is hinged to the splint joint 6 through the splint connecting rod 8 .

[0043] The adjustable deceleration device of the present application, such as Figure 3 As shown, the grille cover 1 and the clamping plate 2 are connected by the cooperation of the slide rail 3 and the track rod 4.

[0044] The adjustable deceleration device of the present application, such as Figure 4 As shown, the control grid cover actuator 7 pushes the grid cover 1 out of the outer surface of the aircraft through the grid cover connecting rod 9, increasing the flight resistance to help the aircraft slow down, and the control clamp actuator 10 drives the clamp connecting rod 8 to pull back or push the clamp 2 to move translationally along the slide track 3 in the grid cover 1, changing the overlapping area between the clamp 2 and the grid cover 1.

[0045] The adjustable deceleration device of the present application has a resistance increment D of:

[0046]

[0047] Among them, ρ is the atmospheric density, v is the air velocity, S is the windward area, C D is the resistance coefficient.

[0048] By adjusting the overlapping area of ​​the grille sleeve 1 and the clamping plate 2, the resistance coefficient C in the formula is changed.D , to achieve the adjustment of the resistance increment.

[0049] Since the resistance increment of conventional speed brakes is fixed, the speed brakes can usually only be used at a certain speed. However, the present application can expand the scope of use of the speed brake by adjusting the overlapping area and thus adjusting the resistance increment, thereby expanding the scope of use.

[0050] Generally, when the air brake is opened, because it is opposite to the direction of the air flow, when the speed pressure is large, there is a situation where the hinge torque is large and the air brake cannot be opened. The advantage of the present application is that when it cannot be opened, the overlapping area of ​​the grille cover 1 and the clamping plate 2 is 0 (i.e., the overlapping area is the minimum state), so as to maintain a certain air flow permeability and reduce the risk of the air brake not being able to open under high speed pressure.

[0051] The adjustable deceleration device of the present application adopts a double-layer grid frame and a pneumatically retractable plate configuration filled in the middle. The overlapping area of ​​the clamping plate 2 and the grid cover 1 can be adjusted to achieve different aircraft resistance increase and deceleration in different states (flight speed, configuration, attitude), and can also adjust the aircraft's yaw attitude and compensate for the rudder function, with strong engineering feasibility.

[0052] The adjustable deceleration device of the present application can adjust the deceleration effect by moving the clamping plate 2. It is easy to open at high altitude and high Mach number, and is not easy to deform after opening, which can improve the problem of retracting and releasing the deceleration device at high altitude and high speed. Through the design of the grid sleeve-clamping plate, the resistance increase can be changed, the structural weight can be saved, and the design difficulty can be reduced.

[0053] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application shall be based on the protection scope of the claims.
