Description

[0002] In recent years, with the widespread use of flight training simulators in the training of civil aviation pilots, high-precision imitation of the cockpit environment has become a key technology to improve the authenticity of training. Among them, the cockpit window frame and glass are important interfaces connecting the simulator's visual system and the pilot's visual perception. Their structural restoration directly affects the immersive effect of the training scene. At present, the industry generally adopts three symmetrically distributed window structure imitation schemes: front windshield, movable window, and observation window. The design must not only take into account the consistency with the appearance of the real aircraft, but also needs to be adaptively modified in terms of material strength, installation method, etc., to meet the specific needs of lightweight, low-cost and easy maintenance of simulators.

[0003] However, the existing simulator cockpit window frame and glass installation structure still has significant defects.

In order to provide a deep understanding of the present invention, the following description will include many specific details. The present invention can also be implemented without using these details. In addition, in order to avoid confusion or blurring the focus of the present invention, some specific details will be omitted in the description.

[0043] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0045] It is understood that although the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. may be used herein to describe various components, regions, layers and / or parts, these components, regions, layers and / or parts should not be limited by these terms, and these terms are only used to distinguish different components, regions, layers and / or parts. Therefore, the first component, region, layer and / or part discussed below may be referred to as a second component, region, layer and / or part without departing from some embodiments of the present invention.

[0046] As mentioned above, in recent years, with the widespread use of flight training simulators in the training of civil aviation pilots, high-precision imitation of the cockpit environment has become a key technology to improve the authenticity of training. Among them, the cockpit window frame and glass are important interfaces connecting the simulator's visual system and the pilot's visual perception. Their structural restoration directly affects the immersive effect of the training scene. At present, the industry generally adopts three symmetrically distributed window structure imitation schemes: front windshield, movable window, and observation window. The design must not only take into account the consistency with the appearance of the real aircraft, but also needs to be adaptively modified in terms of material strength, installation method, etc., to meet the specific needs of lightweight, low-cost and easy maintenance of the simulator.

[0047] However, the existing simulator cockpit window frame and glass installation structure still has significant defects. Since the simulator design uses some of the real aircraft's multi-layer composite frame structure, the window frame assembly and the cabin interior decorative panels form a spatial coupling.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 1~Figure 2 , Figure 1 Shown are schematic diagrams of the structures of some simulator cockpit window frames. Figure 2 Schematic diagrams of the interior facilities of some simulator cockpits are shown.

[0049] like Figure 1~Figure 2 As shown, the first installation surface of the cockpit window frame is located inside the cockpit. The installation method of the cockpit window frame in the simulator industry is generally to install it from the inside of the cockpit. However, using this traditional installation method, after the cockpit window frame is installed, the installation of the cockpit internal facilities 401 and equipment will continue, which will cause the cockpit window frame and the disassembly interface to be covered by the internal facilities 401, lighting equipment 402, and the hood 403 structure. In the maintenance and replacement operation, the operator must first remove the interior panels covering the front windshield, movable window or observation window before reaching the window frame fixing mechanism for disassembly. Therefore, a large number of internal facilities 401, lighting equipment 402, and hood 403 need to be removed. In particular, the hood 403 structure will make the maintenance space extremely narrow, which brings great inconvenience to the maintenance and replacement of the glass. This nested installation design not only greatly increases the maintenance man-hour cost, but also easily causes secondary problems such as wear of the interior buckle and aging of the sealing strip due to frequent disassembly and assembly, which seriously restricts the operation and maintenance efficiency and equipment availability of the simulator.

[0050] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a simulator cockpit window frame and a simulator cockpit window frame installation method, which are used to avoid disassembly of interior decoration near the window frame, that is, the window frame and glass can be disassembled, thereby reducing the risk of component loss caused by complex disassembly process and significantly improving the convenience of maintenance operations.

[0051] In some non-limiting embodiments, the simulator cockpit window frame installation method provided in the second aspect of the present invention may be implemented based on the simulator cockpit window frame provided in the first aspect of the present invention.

[0052] Specifically, the simulator cockpit window frame includes a cabin frame, an inner window frame assembly and a window frame glass. The cabin frame is provided with a plurality of through holes, and the inner edge of the cabin frame is provided with a mounting groove. The inner window frame assembly is mounted on a first mounting surface of the cabin frame facing the inner side of the cabin. The window frame glass is detachably mounted in the mounting groove of the cabin frame. Thus, the simulator cockpit window frame can be used to avoid disassembling the interior decoration near the window frame, that is, the window frame and glass can be disassembled, thereby reducing the risk of component loss caused by a complex disassembly process and significantly improving the convenience of maintenance operations.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 3~Figure 7 , Figure 3 A schematic structural diagram of a front windshield window frame provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown. Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the exploded structure of the window frame assembly in the front windshield window frame and the cabin frame provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown.

The plurality of first screws 122 are used to pass through the avoidance grooves 142 and the plurality of through holes on the cabin frame 10 to fix the window frame embedded mounting plate 121 to the first mounting surface of the cabin frame 10. The plurality of second screws 123 are used to pass through the plurality of mounting holes 141 and the plurality of through holes on the cabin frame 10 to fix the outer window frame member 14 to the window frame embedded mounting plate 121 to detachably mount the outer window frame member 14 to the second mounting surface of the cabin frame 10.

[0058] like Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the inner window frame assembly further includes at least one rubber pad 131 , which is disposed on the outer edge of the window frame glass 13 and embedded in the mounting groove 11 of the cabin frame 10 .

Fig. 9 A schematic diagram of an exploded structure of a window frame assembly and a cabin frame in an observation window frame provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown. Fig.10 A schematic diagram of the exploded structure of an outer window frame member of an observation window frame and a cabin frame provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown. Fig.11 A schematic cross-sectional view of an observation window frame assembly structure provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown. Fig.12 A schematic diagram of the exploded structure of the window frame glass and the cabin frame of the observation window frame provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown.

[0060] like Figure 8~Figure 9 As shown, the cockpit window frame can be an observation window frame. The inner window frame assembly includes a window frame pre-embedded mounting plate 221 , which is fixedly mounted on the first mounting surface of the cabin frame 10 .

[0061] like Fig.10 As shown, the cockpit window frame further includes: an outer window frame member 24 detachably mounted on a second mounting surface of the cabin frame 10 facing the outside of the cabin, and detachably connected to a window frame embedded mounting plate 221 .

[0062] Furthermore, a plurality of first nuts 2211 (eg, M5 pressure rivet nuts) are provided on the window frame pre-embedded mounting plate 221 , and a plurality of mounting holes 241 and a plurality of avoidance grooves 242 that are alternately arranged are provided on the outer window frame member 24 .

[0063] Furthermore, the inner window frame assembly further includes a plurality of first screws 222 (e.g., 8 round head hexagon socket screws M5*10) and a plurality of second screws 223 (e.g., 10 round head hexagon socket screws M5*12). The plurality of first screws 222 are used to pass through the plurality of through holes on the cabin frame 10 to fix the window frame embedded mounting plate 221 to the first mounting surface of the cabin frame 10. The plurality of second screws 223 are used to pass through the plurality of mounting holes 241 and the plurality of through holes on the cabin frame 10 to fix the outer window frame member 24 to the window frame embedded mounting plate 221 to detachably mount the outer window frame member 24 to the second mounting surface of the cabin frame 10.

[0064] like Fig.11 As shown, the edge of the outer window frame member 24 may also be provided with a avoiding groove 242 for avoiding the position when the window frame pre-embedded mounting plate 221 is fixedly mounted on the first mounting surface of the cabin frame 10 .

[0065] like Figure 8 and Fig.12 As shown, the inner window frame assembly further includes at least one rubber pad 231 , which is disposed on the outer edge of the window frame glass 23 and embedded in the mounting groove 11 of the cabin frame 10 .

[0066] The following will combine some embodiments of the simulator cockpit window frame installation method to describe the working principle of the cockpit window frame that can be disassembled and assembled without removing the interior decoration near the window frame. Those skilled in the art will understand that these embodiments of the simulator cockpit window frame installation method are just some non-restrictive implementation methods provided by the present invention, which are intended to clearly demonstrate the main concept of the present invention and provide some specific solutions that are convenient for the public to implement, rather than to limit all functions or all working modes of the cockpit window frame. Similarly, the cockpit window frame is also just some non-restrictive implementation methods provided by the present invention, and does not constitute a limitation on the execution subject or execution order of each step in these simulator cockpit window frame installation methods.

[0067] Specifically, the simulator cockpit window frame installation method can first install the inner window frame assembly of the simulator cockpit window frame on the first installation surface of the cabin frame 10 of the simulator cockpit window frame from the inside of the cockpit through multiple through holes on the cabin frame 10. The inner window frame assembly is permanently installed after installation, providing an installation foundation for the outer window frame component, and does not need to be disassembled later.

[0068] Then, the window frame glass 13, 23 of the simulator cockpit window frame is embedded in the mounting groove 11 of the cabin frame 10. Finally, an outer window frame member 14, 24 is detachably mounted on the second mounting surface of the cabin frame 10 facing the outside of the cabin.

[0069] In some embodiments, before the window frame glass 13 , 23 is embedded in the mounting groove 11 of the cabin frame 10 , at least one rubber pad 131 , 231 may be placed on the outer edge of the window frame glass 13 , 23 and embedded in the mounting groove 11 of the cabin frame 10 .

[0070] Please refer to Figure 13~Figure 18 , Fig.13 A schematic diagram of an exploded structure of a movable window frame provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown. Fig.14 A schematic diagram of the installation structure of a movable window frame provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown. Fig.15 A schematic diagram of an exploded structure of a window frame assembly and a cabin frame in a movable window frame provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown. Fig.16 Schematic diagrams of multiple interior structures of movable window frames provided according to some embodiments of the present invention are shown. Fig.17 A schematic diagram of a first interior structure of a movable window frame provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown. Fig.18 A schematic diagram of an exploded structure of a window frame glass and a frame of a movable window frame provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown.

[0071] like Figure 13~Figure 15 As shown, the cockpit window frame may include a movable window frame. The inner window frame assembly includes a frame 321. The frame 321 includes a plurality of borders riveted and fixed via a plurality of connecting angle pieces 3211. The frame 321 is provided with a second nut (e.g., an M5 pressure rivet nut) and is detachably mounted on the first mounting surface of the cabin frame 10 via a third screw 322 (e.g., 6 round head hexagon socket screws M5*12).

[0072] like Figure 13~Figure 14 and Figure 16-17 As shown, the inner window frame assembly also includes a plurality of interior trims, a first mounting sheet metal 324, a first interior trim mounting corner piece 326 and a plurality of interior trim mounting interfaces.

[0073] The first mounting sheet metal 324 is fixedly mounted on the first frame 3212. The first interior trim mounting corner piece 326 is disposed on the first mounting sheet metal 324 and is used to cooperate with a plurality of interior trim mounting interfaces to mount the first interior trim 328. The plurality of interior trim mounting interfaces are disposed on a plurality of frames and are used to match and mount a plurality of interior trims.

[0074] Furthermore, the inner window frame assembly further includes a handle 330 . The handle 330 can be installed on the first installation sheet metal 324 via the second installation sheet metal 325 .

[0075] Furthermore, the inner window frame assembly also includes at least one second interior decoration installation corner piece 327, which is arranged on at least one of the multiple connecting corner pieces 3211 and is used to cooperate with multiple interior decoration installation interfaces to install at least one second interior decoration 329.

[0077] The following will combine some embodiments of the simulator cockpit window frame installation method to describe the working principle of the cockpit window frame that can be disassembled and assembled without removing the interior decoration near the window frame. Those skilled in the art will understand that these embodiments of the simulator cockpit window frame installation method are just some non-restrictive implementation methods provided by the present invention, which are intended to clearly demonstrate the main concept of the present invention and provide some specific solutions that are convenient for the public to implement, rather than to limit all functions or all working modes of the cockpit window frame. Similarly, the cockpit window frame is also just some non-restrictive implementation methods provided by the present invention, and does not constitute a limitation on the execution subject or execution order of each step in these simulator cockpit window frame installation methods.

[0078] Specifically, the simulator cockpit window frame installation method can first install the inner window frame assembly of the simulator cockpit window frame on the first installation surface of the cabin frame 10 of the simulator cockpit window frame. Then, the window frame glass 33 of the simulator cockpit window frame is embedded in the installation groove 11 of the cabin frame 10. Finally, the window frame glass 33 in the installation groove 11 is detachably installed on the frame 321 of the inner window frame assembly via screws and nuts.

[0079] Furthermore, the inner window frame assembly can be assembled by first fixing the handle 330 to the first mounting sheet metal 324 via the second mounting sheet metal 325, and then fixing the first mounting sheet metal 324 to the first frame 3212 via screws and nuts.

[0080] Afterwards, the second interior trim installation corner piece 327 is fixed to the connecting corner piece 3211, and the first interior trim installation corner piece 326 is fixed to the first installation sheet metal 324, thus completing the overall assembly of the movable window frame.

[0081] Please refer to Fig.19 , Fig.19 A schematic diagram of the exploded structure of each window frame glass and frame provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is shown.

[0082] like Fig.19 As shown, each window frame glass and frame are installed from the outside of the cockpit, which can avoid the removal of a large amount of interior decoration and lighting equipment when the glass is maintained and replaced.

[0083] In summary, the simulator cockpit window frame is installed from the outside of the cockpit, and the window frame and glass are disassembled or installed, which can avoid the removal of a large amount of interior decoration and lighting equipment during glass maintenance and replacement, thereby reducing the risk of component loss due to complex disassembly processes, and significantly improving the convenience and efficiency of maintenance operations, while saving labor costs.
