Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of flight simulators, and more specifically to a circuit breaker control device of a flight simulator. Background Art

[0002] In the development of flight simulators, in order to ensure that the real aircraft operating environment can be restored to a high degree, the cockpit design of the simulator usually strives to replicate the cockpit layout of the actual aircraft one-to-one. Given that the aircraft cockpit contains a large number of circuit breakers, these circuit breakers require precise control and signal acquisition.

[0003] Flight simulators require independent control and signal acquisition for each circuit breaker, and each circuit breaker requires a 4-core line. However, when a large number of circuit breakers are involved, especially when the number reaches 100 to 200, the total number of lines required will increase to 400 to 800 cores. This dense line layout will not only take up valuable cabin space and add extra weight, but also occupy more control points of the PLC (Programmable Logic Controller).

[0004] In view of the above problems, the following two solutions are proposed in the flight simulators of the prior art.

[0005] The first solution is to control and collect each circuit breaker individually, and combine the lines of multiple circuit breakers into fewer lines by connecting the common terminals in parallel, thereby reducing the total number of lines to a certain extent, and reducing the space occupation and weight burden by using thinner wire diameters. Although this solution can improve the line layout to a certain extent, its effect is not significant, and the current carrying capacity limit of the common terminal wire diameter must also be considered.

[0006] The second solution is to use circuit board integration to collect information from the circuit breakers in each area and convert it into network signals before transmitting it to the system. This solution requires centralized collection of information in each area and does not substantially reduce the number of actual control points of the PLC. In addition, due to the limited depth of the back of the circuit breaker, there are many inconveniences in integrated installation and maintenance, and it is not conducive to later upgrades and renovations.

[0007] In summary, there is still a need to find a circuit breaker control device for a flight simulator to realize the collection and control of the circuit breaker signal of the flight simulator. Utility Model Content

[0047] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.

[0048] In order to optimize the wiring harness design of a flight simulator, the utility model proposes a circuit breaker control device for a flight simulator. The device divides the plane distribution of the circuit breakers into rows and columns in a matrix arrangement according to the actual layout of the circuit breakers, thereby achieving control of more circuit breakers through fewer PLC controller output points.

[0049] The utility model proposes a circuit breaker control device for a flight simulator, comprising a controller and a matrix circuit breaker:

[0050] The matrix circuit breaker is a plurality of circuit breakers arranged in a matrix and distributed on the cockpit circuit breaker panel of the flight simulator;

[0051] The output end of the controller is provided with a plurality of output points, including row output points and column output points;

[0052] The number of the row output points is consistent with the total number of rows of the matrix circuit breaker, and the row output points are connected to the first ends of the circuit breakers in the corresponding rows of the matrix circuit breaker;

[0053] The number of the column output points is consistent with the total number of columns of the matrix circuit breaker, and the column output points are connected to the second ends of the circuit breakers in the corresponding columns of the matrix circuit breaker.

[0054] The utility model introduces the mathematical thinking of matrix to accurately locate the plane space, which can not only accurately identify the circuit breakers arranged in rows and columns, but also effectively reduce the number of wiring harnesses, thereby improving the simplicity and efficiency of the entire system.

[0055] Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the circuit breaker according to the first embodiment of the utility model is disclosed. Figure 1 As shown, in a real aircraft, the circuit breaker has two pins connected in series to the circuit. When an overcurrent fault occurs in the circuit, the circuit breaker will automatically pop out. However, in the actual application of the simulator, since the working current does not reach the level of a real aircraft, in order to simulate the pop-up behavior of the circuit breaker, a simulation part is usually used, which has four pins. When the 24V power supply 101 is turned on, the metal sheet 102 will heat up and deform, and the circuit breaker will pop out under the action of the spring 103, and the internal normally open contact 104 will close, thereby feeding back the pop-up signal to the control device.

[0056] The circuit breaker control device for the flight simulator proposed in the utility model centrally distributes the circuit breakers on a circuit breaker panel in the cockpit of the aircraft simulator. The layout of the circuit breakers meets the principle of matrix row and column arrangement to ensure accurate and efficient space utilization. The controller adopts a matrix positioning method to accurately identify the combination of rows and columns to achieve the pop-up operation of a specific circuit breaker and the accurate collection of status signals.

[0057] Matrix positioning is a spatial positioning technology that divides the plane into several rows and columns, and then uses the row and column numbers to jointly identify the specific position of any point on the plane, thereby achieving high-precision control and efficient management of the circuit breaker.

[0058] Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the distribution of the matrix circuit breaker according to the first embodiment of the utility model is disclosed. Figure 2 As shown, taking a matrix circuit breaker with 4 rows and 4 columns as an example, there are 16 circuit breakers K0 to K15, which are arranged in a matrix. The rows are named [Y0, Y1, Y2, Y3] and the columns are named [X0, X1, X2, X3]. The intersection of the rows and columns is the position of the circuit breaker. Therefore, the circuit breaker can be located by the corresponding row name and column name.

[0059] Figure 3 and Figure 4 The schematic diagram and wiring diagram of the circuit breaker control device of the flight simulator according to the first embodiment of the utility model are disclosed respectively. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the controller has a total of 8 output points (Q0.0-Q0.7), among which the row output points (Q0.4-Q0.7) are consistent with the total number of rows [Y0, Y1, Y2, Y3] of the matrix circuit breaker, and the column output points (Q0.0-Q0.3) are consistent with the total number of columns [X0, X1, X2, X3] of the matrix circuit breaker.

[0060] The following uses the mathematical algorithm of the matrix to locate the circuit breaker. For the X0 column, the following expression can be obtained:

[0061]

[0062] It can be seen that for the column X0 of the matrix circuit breaker, combined with the rows [Y0, Y1, Y2, Y3] of the matrix circuit breaker, the pop-up of the circuit breakers K0, K4, K8, and K12 in the X0th column can be accurately located and controlled.

[0063] By analogy, the pop-up conditions of other columns of circuit breakers can be obtained, which conform to the following expressions:

[0064]

[0065]

[0066] It can be seen that through the combination of rows and columns and the matrix positioning method, the ejection of the circuit breaker can be accurately positioned and controlled. Table 1 discloses in detail the corresponding relationship between the controller output point and the matrix circuit breaker position.

[0067] Table 1

[0068]

[0069]

[0070] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the first embodiment shown, the circuit breaker control device for the flight simulator provided by the utility model adopts a relay output channel to control the circuit breaker.

[0071] More specifically, the output end of the controller is provided with a plurality of relays, including column relays and row relays:

[0072] The number of row relays is consistent with the total number of rows of the matrix circuit breaker;

[0073] The number of the relay columns is consistent with the total number of columns of the matrix circuit breaker;

[0074] The row relay has one end connected to the row output point and the other end connected to the first end of the circuit breaker of the corresponding row of the matrix circuit breaker;

[0075] The column relay has one end connected to the column output point, and the other end connected to the second ends of the circuit breakers of the corresponding column of the matrix circuit breaker.

[0076] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the output end of the controller is provided with 8 relays: including a series of relays J x0 To J x3 , Line relay J Y0 To J Y3 .

[0077] For example, relay J x0 One end is connected to the column output point (Q0.0), and the other end is respectively connected to the second ends of the circuit breakers K0, K4, K8, and K12 of the X0 column of the matrix circuit breaker.

[0078] Line relay J Y0 One end is connected to the row output point (Q0.4), and the other end is respectively connected to the first ends of the circuit breakers K0, K1, K2, and K3 of the corresponding Y0 row of the matrix circuit breaker.

[0079] Thus, the relay J can be controlled x0 With relay J Y0 The on and off of the circuit breaker K0 can be accurately positioned and controlled.

[0080] The first end and the second end of the circuit breaker are relative concepts, and both can be used as current input ends or current output ends according to actual circuit design.

[0081] In this embodiment, the positive voltage terminal of the controller is connected to the circuit breaker current input terminal of the corresponding column of the matrix circuit breaker through a column relay;

[0082] The negative voltage terminal of the controller is connected to the circuit breaker current output terminal of the corresponding row of the matrix circuit breaker through a row relay.

[0083] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the column relays of columns [X0-X3] are source outputs with a common terminal of +24VDC, and the row relays of rows [Y0-Y3] are sink outputs with a common terminal of 0VDC.

[0084] Therefore, in this embodiment, the first end of the circuit breaker is a current output end, and the second end is a current input end.

[0085] Q0.0~Q0.3 control column relays to connect to the positive terminal. The second terminal of the circuit breaker in the column corresponding to the matrix circuit breaker is the current input terminal, which is connected to the positive terminal through the column relay to output +24VDC;

[0086] Q0.4~Q0.7 control the row relay to connect the negative terminal. The first terminal of the circuit breaker corresponding to the row of the matrix circuit breaker is the current output terminal, and 0VDC is output through the row relay connected to the negative terminal.

[0087] The circuit breaker control device of the flight simulator provided by the utility model supplies power to the circuit breaker through the combination of rows and columns of the matrix circuit breaker, and controls the circuit breaker to pop out at a fixed point.

[0088] More specifically, the output signal of the controller controls the on and off of the corresponding relay and controls the pop-up of the corresponding matrix circuit breaker.

[0089] In this embodiment, the controller is a programmable logic controller (PLC), and the output signal of the controller is a digital signal.

[0090] When writing a PLC program, the action logic of each component is determined based on the matrix positioning method.

[0091] First, it is necessary to clarify the conditions that must be met for Q0.0 to be turned on:

[0092] When any circuit breaker in the X0 column is in the pop-up state, the X0 (i.e., Q0.0) output will be triggered to 1. This logic can be analogized to the programming of other rows and columns.

[0093] In order to achieve precise control of K0 to K15, row relays and column relays are used for automatic triggering, thereby achieving the purpose of fixed-point pop-up.

[0094] For example, to control the ejection of circuit breaker K0, you need to activate relay J x0 And line relay J Y0 The output of the circuit breaker K0 is controlled by such a logical combination.

[0095] In order to achieve effective connection of the circuit and ensure the stability of power flow, it is crucial to design the circuit according to the characteristics of the matrix.

[0096] In order to avoid energy flow jump, preferably, a diode is added to the current output end of the circuit breaker to cut off the current, and the positive electrode of the diode is connected to the current output end of the circuit breaker.

[0097] In this embodiment, the matrix circuit breaker is configured with a diode at the current output end of each circuit breaker to improve the stability and safety of the circuit.

[0098] As shown in Table 1, when K0 / K1 / K4 need to be triggered simultaneously, the controller needs to trigger [Q0.0 / Q0.1 / Q0.4 / Q0.5]. At this time, K5 may be triggered by mistake. As the number of circuit breakers that need to be triggered simultaneously increases, the probability of being triggered by mistake at the intersection will also increase accordingly.

[0099] In order to solve the above problem, in this embodiment, only one circuit breaker in the matrix circuit breaker responds to the output signal of the controller within a preset time.

[0100] In this case, the program is set in the simulator IOS system so that within a very short preset time, only one circuit breaker can be triggered at the same time, and after the control device collects the pop-up signal of the circuit breaker, the controller output signal of the corresponding point is immediately reset, and then the pop-up of other circuit breakers is controlled.

[0101] The circuit breaker control device of the flight simulator proposed by the utility model collects the status of the circuit breaker through the combination of rows and columns of the matrix circuit breaker, thereby realizing accurate collection of the status signal of the specific circuit breaker.

[0102] Furthermore, the output end of the controller is provided with a plurality of signal acquisition units, including a row signal acquisition unit and a column signal acquisition unit:

[0103] The number of the row signal acquisition units is consistent with the total number of rows of the matrix circuit breaker;

[0104] The number of the column signal acquisition units is consistent with the total number of columns of the matrix circuit breaker;

[0105] The row signal acquisition unit has one end connected to the row output point and the other end connected to the first end of the circuit breaker of the corresponding row of the matrix circuit breaker;

[0106] The column signal acquisition unit has one end connected to the column output point, and the other end connected to the second end of the circuit breaker of the corresponding column of the matrix circuit breaker.

[0107] The controller collects the photoelectric signal of the light emitting diode, and then obtains the pop-up state of the corresponding matrix circuit breaker.

[0108] Figure 5 and Figure 6 The schematic diagram and wiring diagram of the circuit breaker control device of the flight simulator according to the second embodiment of the utility model are disclosed respectively. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the controller has a total of 8 output points (I0.0-I0.7), among which the row output points (I0.4-I0.7) are consistent with the total number of rows [Y0, Y1, Y2, Y3] of the matrix circuit breaker, and the column output points (I0.0-I0.3) are consistent with the total number of columns [X0, X1, X2, X3] of the matrix circuit breaker.

[0109] In a 4×4 matrix, the pop-up status of 16 circuit breakers (M1 to M15) can be actually detected by collecting signals of 8 circuit breakers.

[0110] The following uses the mathematical algorithm of the matrix to locate the circuit breaker. For the column [X0, X1, X2, X3] of the matrix circuit breaker, the following expression can be obtained:

[0111]

[0112]

[0113] The position relationship between the output point of the controller and the matrix circuit breaker is shown in Table 2. The signal acquisition of the circuit breaker is controlled by the matrix positioning method. The program acquisition and control scheme of the controller are similar and will not be repeated here.

[0114] Table 2

[0115]

[0116] The output end of the controller is provided with a plurality of signal acquisition units, including a row signal acquisition unit and a column signal acquisition unit:

[0117] The number of the row signal acquisition units is consistent with the total number of rows of the matrix circuit breaker;

[0118] The number of the column signal acquisition units is consistent with the total number of columns of the matrix circuit breaker;

[0119] The row signal acquisition unit has one end connected to the row output point and the other end connected to the first end of the circuit breaker of the corresponding row of the matrix circuit breaker;

[0120] The column signal acquisition unit has one end connected to the column output point, and the other end connected to the second end of the circuit breaker of the corresponding column of the matrix circuit breaker.

[0121] In this embodiment, the signal acquisition unit is a light emitting diode:

[0122] The digital quantity acquisition circuit of the controller is designed with photoelectric isolation, which converts the voltage signal of the circuit into a light signal through the built-in light emitting diode and collects it into the controller.

[0123] The controller collects the photoelectric signal of the light emitting diode, and then obtains the pop-up state of the corresponding matrix circuit breaker.

[0124] The first end and the second end of the circuit breaker are relative concepts, and both can be used as current input ends or current output ends according to actual circuit design.

[0125] In this embodiment, the first end of the circuit breaker is a current input end, and the second end is a current output end.

[0126] The negative terminals of the LEDs in the control column I0.0~I0.3 are connected to 0VDC, and the second terminals of the circuit breakers in the corresponding column of the matrix circuit breaker are the current output terminals;

[0127] The positive terminals of the light emitting diodes in the control row of I0.4 to I0.7 are connected to +24VDC, and the first terminal of the circuit breaker in the row corresponding to the matrix circuit breaker is the current input terminal.

[0128] In this embodiment, eight light emitting diodes are arranged at the output end of the controller: a row of light emitting diodes D x0 To D x3 , LED D Y0 To D Y3 .

[0129] For example, the LED row D x0 One end is connected to the column output point (I0.0), and the other end is respectively connected to the second ends of the circuit breakers K0, K4, K8, and K12 of the X0 column of the matrix circuit breaker, and the corresponding circuit breaker signals are M0, M4, M8, and M12.

[0130] LED D Y0 One end is connected to the row output point (I0.4), and the other end is respectively connected to the first ends of the circuit breakers K0, K1, K2, and K3 of the corresponding Y0 row of the matrix circuit breaker, and the corresponding circuit breaker signals are M0, M1, M2, and M3.

[0131] By collecting the light emitting diodes D x0 And row light emitting diode D Y0 The circuit breaker signal actually detects the pop-up state M1 of the circuit breaker K0.

[0132] In order to achieve effective connection of the circuit and ensure the stability of power flow, it is crucial to design the circuit according to the characteristics of the matrix.

[0133] In order to avoid energy flow jump, preferably, a diode is added to the current input end of the circuit breaker to cut off the current, and the cathode of the diode is connected to the current input end of the circuit breaker.

[0134] In this embodiment, the matrix circuit breaker is equipped with a diode at the current input end of each circuit breaker to improve the stability and safety of the circuit.

[0135] Regarding the problem of false triggering of the collected signals, given that it is extremely rare for multiple circuit breakers to pop out at the same time in actual use, the probability of false triggering at the intersection is relatively low, so no special design processing is required.

[0136] The utility model proposes a circuit breaker control device for a flight simulator, which significantly reduces the number of control points required and greatly reduces the complexity of line layout and management, thereby realizing an efficient and economical control system design. For a 4×4 matrix structure, 8 output points can be configured to achieve effective control of 16 circuit breakers. If this matrix structure is expanded to a larger 10×10 scale, only 20 output points need to be increased to achieve precise control of 100 circuit breakers.
