[0002] In the optimization and improvement design of the bottom fairing of a helicopter, the original bottom fairing locking mechanism adopts a ring-shaped pull buckle locking device, which needs to be pulled by hand when being opened and closed, and a large force needs to be applied for operation. The operation is inconvenient and the fingers are easy to be hurt. In addition, in the design, not only the shape of the bottom of the fuselage will change, but also the structure of the left and right sides of the original body bottom will change, resulting in that the connection and installation surface of the new bottom fairing and the fuselage structure is different from before. The quick disassembly and installation cannot be realized.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to reconsider the design method of the locking mechanism, and the bottom fairing is arranged under the bottom structure of the fuselage, so as to realize the quick disassembly and installation. SUMMARY

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0041] The present application will be further described in detail by specific embodiments and drawings.

[0042] An embodiment of the present application provides a design method of a locking mechanism, specifically comprising the following steps:

[0043] Step one, stress analysis of the locking point position

[0044] Referring to Figure 1 , the bottom fairing 2 is taken as the research object, and the stress condition thereof is researched: in the flight state, the stress state of the locking point position 3 of the bottom fairing 2 is determined in combination with the stress load of the bottom fairing 2 fixed on the bottom structure of the fuselage 1 and the locking working principle of the hook type locking sleeve device, and the stress and position relationship of the locking point position 3 and the connector position in the locking state are preliminarily determined: the tension T is the acting force of the hook type locking sleeve device, the F is the aerodynamic load acting force, and the moment M is the acting moment of the fuselage structure. The position of the locking point position 3 and the connector position is close to the edge of the bottom fairing 2.

[0045] Step two, position setting of the locking point position

[0046] The stress analysis result of the locking position obtained in step one is obtained, and based on the consideration of safety redundancy, three locking point positions are set on the bottom fairing 2 from front to back on one side, which are A1, A3 and A5, and three locking point positions are set on the other side, which are A2, A4 and A6. The locking point positions on both sides are symmetrical, as shown in Figure 2 The position of the selected locking point position does not affect the surrounding structure and system.

[0047] Step three, obtaining the installation interface of the hook type locking sleeve device (locking state)

[0048] 1. The datum setting of the hook type locking sleeve device is performed,

[0049] Referring to Figure 3 The hook type locking sleeve in the locked state is modeled. In the assembly environment, the hook type locking sleeve in the locked state is introduced, and the key datum is set: when the hook 6 of the hook type locking sleeve locks the square ring buckle 5, the axis L0 of the rotation of the hook 6 around the cylindrical shaft of the square ring buckle 5 coincides with the center line L1 of the cylindrical shaft of the square ring buckle 5. The rotation axis of the hook 6 is L2. The reference surface of the mounting of the cartridge 4 on the machine body structure is P1. The reference surface of the button platform 7 is P2. On the reference surface P2, the center line of the button platform 7 is L3. The center axis of the tail shaft of the square ring buckle 5 is L4.

[0050] 2. Boundary setting of the hook type locking sleeve is performed,

[0051] Referring to Figure 4 , referring to the hook type locking sleeve model, combined with the installation requirements, a rectangle S1 is built on the reference surface P2 with the center line L3 as the center. The rectangle S1 is the button mounting surface boundary of the hook type locking sleeve. Similarly, another rectangle S2 is built on the reference surface P2 with the center line L3 as the center. The area of the rectangle S2 is smaller than that of the rectangle S1.

The rectangle S2 is projected onto the locking point platform installation surface to obtain the button opening boundary S56.

[0061] Step five, design the connecting piece of the hook type locking sleeve

[0062] For the locking point A1,

[0063] Firstly, the machine body connecting piece 8 is designed, specifically: in the position space of the locking point A1 in step four, a machine angle box is designed between the hook type locking sleeve holder 4 and the bottom structure 1 of the fuselage, taking the reference surface P1 of the holder 4 and the installation reference surface P51 of the bottom structure of the fuselage as the positioning reference, the machine angle box is designed in the shape of a wedge, as shown in Figure 6 . Figure 6 In the formula, i is equal to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. When the locking point is A1, i is 1; when the locking point is A2, i is 2; when the locking point is A3, i is 3; when the locking point is A4, i is 4; when the locking point is A5, i is 5; and when the locking point is A6, i is 6. In an embodiment, 7075 high-strength hard aluminum material can be selected. The machine angle box machine installation surface is attached to the bottom structure 1 of the fuselage, and is connected by riveting. The holder 4 of the hook type locking sleeve is attached to the holder installation surface of the angle box. There are four through holes on the angle box installation surface, which can be screwed with the angle box;

[0064] Then, the bottom fairing connecting piece 9 is designed, specifically: in the position space of the locking point A1 in step four, a machine angle box is designed between the hook type locking sleeve button platform 7 and the bottom fairing 2, taking the installation surface P41 of the bottom fairing as the positioning reference, and the reference surface P2 of the button platform 7 coincides with the installation surface P41. Taking the hook rotating axis L2 as the reference, the machine angle box is designed in the shape of a U, as shown in Figure 7 . Figure 7In the example, i is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. When the locking point is A1, i is 1; when the locking point is A2, i is 2; when the locking point is A3, i is 3; when the locking point is A4, i is 4; when the locking point is A5, i is 5; and when the locking point is A6, i is 6. In one embodiment, 7075 high-strength duralumin can be used. The mounting surface of the machined corner box is in contact with the mounting surface of the bottom fairing locking point platform and riveted together. The button platform 7 and hook 6 of the hook-type locking set are suspended in the middle of the machined corner box by pins.

[0065] Finally, the stopping method of the body connector 8 and the bottom fairing connector 9 is designed, specifically: Figure 1 As shown, the bottom fairing locking point 3 needs to have a torque M, that is, the stopping effect of the hook type locking mechanism. Figure 8 A square boss 10 is added to the front end of the body connector 8. Boss 10 is perpendicular to the base mounting datum plane P1 and parallel to the mounting surface P41. A top plate 11 is added above the bottom fairing connector 9. Top plate 11 is perpendicular to the mounting surface P41 and parallel to the datum plane P1. After the two connectors are installed, when the hook-type locking mechanism is locked, boss 10 and top plate 11 intersect perpendicularly and abut against each other.

[0066] Follow the above steps to obtain the connectors of the hook-type locking sets at the remaining five locking points A3, A5, A2, A4, and A6. The details are as follows:

[0067] For the locking point A3,

[0068] First, design the fuselage connector 8. Specifically, in the locking point position A3 of step 4, design a machine-made corner box between the hook-type locking set's base 4 and the fuselage bottom structure 1. Use the base installation reference plane P1 and the fuselage bottom plate structure installation reference plane P53 as positioning references, and design the machine-made corner box into a wedge shape, such as Figure 6 As shown, 7075 high-strength duralumin can be used. The machined corner box fuselage mounting surface is abutted against the fuselage bottom structure 1 and riveted together. The hook-type locking set's holder 4 is abutted against the machined corner box's holder mounting surface. The corner box mounting surface has four through-holes that can be screwed to the corner box.

[0069] Next, design the bottom fairing connector 9. Specifically, in the locking point A3 space in step 4, design a machined angle box between the button platform 7 of the hook-type locking set and the bottom fairing 2. Use the bottom fairing mounting surface P43 as the positioning reference, and the button platform's reference surface P2 coincides with the mounting surface P43. Using the hook's rotation axis L2 as the reference, design the machined angle box into a "J" shape, as shown in the following example.Figure 7 The 7075 high-strength hard aluminum material is selected, the machine corner box mounting surface is attached to the bottom fairing locking point platform mounting surface, and the riveting mode is used for connection. The button platform 7 and the hook 6 of the hook type locking mechanism are suspended in the middle of the machine corner box through a pin.

[0070] Finally, the locking mode of the machine body connecting piece 8 and the bottom fairing connecting piece 9 is designed. Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 The bottom fairing locking point part 3 needs the torque M, that is, the locking action of the hook type locking mechanism. The machine body connecting piece 8 and the bottom fairing connecting piece 9 are continuously optimized, as shown in Figure 8 A boss 10 is additionally arranged at the front end of the machine body connecting piece 8. The boss 10 is perpendicular to the reference surface P1 of the clamping seat mounting surface and parallel to the mounting surface P43. A top plate 11 is additionally arranged above the bottom fairing connecting piece 9. The top plate 11 is perpendicular to the mounting surface P43 and parallel to the reference surface P1. After the two connecting pieces are mounted, the boss 10 and the top plate 11 are perpendicular to each other and abut against each other in the locking state of the hook type locking mechanism.

[0071] For the locking point part A5,

[0072] Firstly, the machine body connecting piece 8 is designed. Specifically, in the position space of the locking point part A5 in step four, a machine corner box is designed between the clamping seat 4 of the hook type locking mechanism and the bottom structure 1 of the machine body. The reference surface P1 of the clamping seat mounting surface and the mounting reference surface P55 of the bottom structure of the machine body are used as positioning references. The machine corner box is designed in a wedge shape, as shown in Figure 6 The 7075 high-strength hard aluminum material is selected.
