Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of rotary actuation, specifically relating to an aerospace constant torque dual-mode linear drive device and method. Background Technology

[0002] Linear drive units are an important component of mechanical opening and closing systems such as aircraft cabin doors, controlling the opening and closing of aircraft cabin doors through the displacement of their own parts.

[0003] With the rise of the low-altitude economy, the advantages of drones in transportation have been gradually discovered. Therefore, efficient and reliable linear drive systems are crucial for the flight safety of drones and the normal transportation of goods. Existing aircraft linear drive systems typically adopt a hydraulic structure design. While this structure can provide relatively reliable driving force, it is subject to the risk of leakage, and is also relatively heavy and has limited functionality. Mechanical drive systems of the same volume can provide more functions, have more stable output, lower cost, and are lighter. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides an aerospace constant torque dual-mode linear drive device and method, which can realize the function of opening / closing aircraft doors through two modes (manual and electric). Furthermore, when the external load exceeds the constant torque device threshold, the constant torque device protects the fuselage structure and linear actuator from damage by slipping.

The low-speed gear of the second-stage reducer assembly is connected to the ball nut of the ball screw assembly via a flat key. The ball nut is mounted on the housing. The end of the screw is connected to the output component to drive the ramp tailgate opening / closing function.

[0006] Furthermore, the two-stage reducer assembly includes: a low-speed stage gear, an intermediate stage gear shaft, and a high-speed stage gear shaft; The low-speed gear is connected to the ball nut by two flat keys; the intermediate gear shaft is supported on the housing by a deep groove ball bearing; the intermediate gear is connected to the intermediate gear shaft by a flat key; the high-speed gear shaft is fixed on the housing by a deep groove ball bearing; the low-speed gear and the intermediate gear shaft mesh, and the intermediate gear shaft and the high-speed gear shaft fit together.

[0008] Furthermore, the steel ball type non-return assembly includes end cap I, gear, spline sleeve, friction damper, spring, ball track disc, manual input shaft, manual output shaft, end cap II, and housing; the friction damper includes a friction pair composed of friction plate I, static friction plate I, static friction plate II, moving friction plate II, and moving friction plate III; One end of the outer casing is fixedly connected to end cover I. The gear is connected to the manual output shaft via a flat key and inserted into the outer casing, with part of the gear protruding from the casing. The manual input shaft has a stepped shaft structure. The head end of the manual output shaft is supported on end cover I via a deep groove ball bearing. The tail end is also supported inside the large end of the manual input shaft via a deep groove ball bearing. The outer step of the manual output shaft is also supported on end cover II via a deep groove ball bearing. End cover II is connected to the other end of the outer casing. The outer surface of the spline sleeve is fixed to the outer casing. The inner cylindrical surface is connected to the static friction plates I and II via splines.

The friction pair of the buffer is initially in a compressed state.

[0012] Furthermore, the ball nuts of the ball screw assembly are supported inside the housing by tapered roller bearings and form a sealed area by lip seals.

[0013] Secondly, a method for constant-torque dual-mode linear drive in aviation is provided, which utilizes an aviation constant-torque dual-mode linear actuator.

After being reduced by the secondary reducer assembly, it drives the ball screw assembly. Under the restriction of the raceway, the screw can only perform linear motion. The end of the screw is connected to the output component to drive the ramp tailgate opening / closing function. In manual operation mode: By inputting manual speed and torque into the ball-type non-returning component, the gear on the gear ring I integrated in the first-stage 2K planetary gear reducer component is driven.
