Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of aerospace equipment, in particular to a test fixture and a test device for an aircraft bonding support. Background Art

[0002] In modern aircraft design, the safety and reliability of the electrical wiring system (EWIS) is critical to the overall flight safety. The EWIS system usually consists of multiple cables, which need to be fixed to the aircraft structure through adhesive supports. During takeoff and landing, and when encountering severe weather conditions such as gusts, the aircraft structure will vibrate and shake violently, causing corresponding dynamic stress in the cables and harnesses. This stress is mainly manifested as an out-of-plane tensile load on the adhesive support, that is, a tensile force perpendicular to the bonding surface.

[0003] Traditionally, bonded mounts are designed to withstand and distribute the dynamic and static loads from cables to prevent them from shifting or being damaged during flight. However, if the bond between the bonded mount and the aircraft structure is not strong enough, the cable may fall out of the mount or even break under the out-of-plane tensile load, which poses a serious threat to the safe operation of the aircraft.

[0004] Although the importance of this issue has been widely recognized, the existing technology still lacks a method to evaluate the bond strength of bonded bearings under out-of-plane tensile loads.

[0036] The technical solution of the utility model is further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0037] See also Figures 1 to 3 The test fixture for aircraft adhesive supports provided by the embodiment of the utility model includes a support assembly 10, a connection assembly 20 and a stretching assembly 30. The support assembly 10 includes a receiving space and a placement opening 11, the placement opening 11 is connected to the receiving space, and the adhesive support can be placed in the receiving space through the placement opening 11; a first connecting rod 13 is provided on the support assembly 10, the first connecting rod 13 extends along the first straight line direction, and the first connecting rod 13 can be connected to the test machine 100; a connection opening 12 is provided on the support assembly 10, the connection opening 12 is connected to the receiving space, and one end of the connection assembly 20 can pass through the connection opening 12 and be detachably connected to the adhesive support; the stretching assembly 30 includes a stretching joint 31 and a second connecting rod 32, the stretching joint 31 can connect one end of the connection assembly 20 away from the adhesive support, and a second connecting rod 32 is provided on the stretching joint 31, the second connecting rod 32 extends along the first straight line and in the opposite direction to the first connecting rod 13, and the second connecting rod 32 can be connected to the test machine 100.

[0038] Adhesive supports can be used at the corners of aircraft structures to achieve connection. They not only have the advantages of simple process, convenient installation, and low structural weight gain, but also have strong adaptability to the bonding position and are suitable for the EWIS system of composite aircraft. Adhesive supports are common basic equipment in this field, and their specific structure and working principle will not be described in detail here.

[0039] In this embodiment, the support assembly 10 is horizontally arranged, and the first straight line direction is defined as the vertical direction. For the convenience of description in conjunction with the drawings, the directions below are described in accordance with the directions shown in the drawings, but are not limited thereto.

[0040] When in use, first connect the bonding support to the connection assembly 20, and clamp the first connecting rod 13 of the support assembly 10 through a clamping head 101 of the testing machine 100; then, install the bonding support together with the connection assembly 20 in the accommodation space, and make one end of the connection assembly 20 pass through the connection port 12 and connect with the tensile joint 31; finally, adjust the relative position between the two clamping heads 101 of the testing machine 100 so that the second connecting rod 32 on the tensile joint 31 is clamped by the other clamping head 101 of the testing machine 100. After the connection is completed, the tensile strength test is carried out. First, the tensile program of the testing machine 100 is set, and the clamping head 101 of the testing machine 100 is driven to move so as to apply a tensile load to the bonding support, and the load is collected and recorded at the same time until the bonding support is destroyed. After the test is completed, the peak load measured by the testing machine 100 is read to obtain the out-of-plane tensile strength of the bonding support. By setting an accommodation space on the support assembly 10, the test fixture can be conveniently placed and fixed on the bonding support to ensure stability and repeatability during the test. The size and shape of the accommodating space can be precisely manufactured according to the actual size of the bonding support to ensure the correct position and direction of the bonding support during the test, thereby improving the accuracy of the test results. By applying forces in different directions through the first connecting rod 13 and the second connecting rod 32, the out-of-plane tensile load on the bonding support when the aircraft encounters gusts or other dynamic stresses is simulated, thereby more accurately simulating and evaluating the performance of the bonding support in actual use.

[0041] Regarding the connection assembly 20, the connection assembly 20 includes a bearing column 21 and a connector 22. One end of the bearing column 21 is fixedly connected to the support assembly 10, and the other end of the bearing column 21 is connected to the tensile joint 31. The connector 22 can be connected to the bearing column 21 and detachably connected to the adhesive support. The bearing column 21 makes the structure of the entire test fixture more stable, ensuring that when performing a tensile test, the entire test fixture can stably withstand a large tensile force and reduce test errors caused by structural instability. The connector 22 can be detachably connected to the bearing column 21, thereby improving flexibility. The operator can select or adjust different connectors 22 according to different types and sizes of adhesive supports to meet various testing requirements.

[0042] See also Figure 4Specifically, the connecting member 22 includes a connecting plate 221 and an adhesive plate 222, and the connecting plate 221 and the adhesive plate 222 are integrally formed. The connecting plate 221 can be inserted into the connecting port 12 and detachably connected to the bearing column 21, and the adhesive plate 222 can be bonded to the adhesive support. The integrally formed design of the connecting plate 221 and the adhesive plate 222 improves the strength and durability of the overall structure. The bonding of the adhesive plate 222 to the adhesive support thereby improves the applicability, so that the connecting member 22 can be connected to a variety of adhesive supports. In other embodiments, it can also be set to be magnetically connected to the adhesive support, bolted, etc., which is not limited here.

[0043] In order to prevent the connecting plate 221 from driving the adhesive plate 222 during the test so that the adhesive support falls out of the connecting port 12, affecting the test process and posing a safety hazard, in this embodiment, the cross-sectional area of ​​the adhesive plate 222 is larger than the area of ​​the connecting port 12, so that the adhesive plate 222 can also play a limiting role, preventing the adhesive support from falling out of the connecting port 12.

[0044] More specifically, the connection assembly 20 includes a locking bolt, a connection hole is provided on the connection plate 221, and a threaded hole is provided at a corresponding position of the bearing column 21, and the locking bolt can pass through the connection hole and be threadedly connected with the threaded hole. The use of the locking bolt through the threaded connection of the connection hole and the threaded hole improves the stability and vibration resistance of the connection assembly 20, and can prevent the connection plate 221 from falling off from the bearing seat due to vibration or tensile force during the test, thereby ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the test. In other embodiments, the connection plate 221 can also be connected to the bearing column 21 by a pin, a snap-on connection, etc., which is not limited here.

[0045] See also Figure 5 Regarding the specific structure of the bearing column 21, in this embodiment, the bearing column 21 includes a first vertical plate 211, a second vertical plate 212 and a horizontal plate 213, which are integrally formed. The first vertical plate 211 and the second vertical plate 212 are arranged in parallel and connected by the horizontal plate 213. The first vertical plate 211 is fixedly connected to the support assembly 10, and the extension direction of the second vertical plate 212 coincides with the first straight line and can be connected to the tension joint 31. The first vertical plate 211 and the second vertical plate 212 are integrally formed and connected by the horizontal plate 213, which enhances the structural stability and rigidity of the entire bearing column 21, so that the bearing column 21 can withstand higher loads and has better stability. The extension direction of the second vertical plate 212 coincides with the first straight line, thereby ensuring that the tension joint 31 and the second connecting rod 32 also coincide with the first straight line, so that the second connecting rod 32 is coaxially arranged with the first connecting rod 13, ensuring that a uniform and symmetrical tension can be applied to the bonding support during the stretching process, thereby more accurately simulating and evaluating the performance of the bonding support in actual use.

[0046] In actual situations, sometimes the directions of the forces on both sides of the bonding support are not in the same straight line. Therefore, in order to improve the realistic effect of the test fixture simulation, a positioning groove 311 is provided on the tensile joint 31, and the bearing column 21 can be inserted into the positioning groove 311 and hinged to the tensile joint 31. The positioning groove 311 and the hinge design allow the tensile joint 31 to be rotated as needed during use, thereby changing the direction of the first connecting rod 13, so that the test fixture can simulate forces in different directions and more realistically simulate the dynamic loads on the bonding support in actual flight.

[0047] See also Figure 2 and Figure 6 Specifically, through holes are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the positioning groove 311, and a through hole is arranged at one end of the second vertical plate 212. The pin can be inserted into the through hole and the through hole to connect the bearing column 21 and the stretching joint 31. When in use, the stretching joint 31 can be pushed according to demand, so that the stretching joint 31 rotates around the pin, so that the direction of the first connecting rod 13 can be adjusted to change the load direction of the bonding support. In other embodiments, the second vertical plate 212 can also be bolted to the positioning groove 311, which is not limited here.

[0048] In order to improve the adaptability of the test fixture so as to be suitable for different types of test machines 100, the first connecting rod 13 and / or the second connecting rod 32 can be extended and retracted along their own axis. Thus, the lengths of the first connecting rod 13 and the second connecting rod 32 can be adjusted as required to facilitate connection with the test machine 100, which has high flexibility.

[0049] In addition, in order to prevent debris from splashing into the equipment gap after the adhesive support is destroyed, causing damage to the equipment. In this embodiment, a transparent blocking door is provided on the support assembly 10, and the transparent blocking door is movably connected to the support assembly 10, and the transparent blocking door can open or close the placement port 11. The transparent blocking door is provided on the side wall of the placement port 11 and is hinged to the side of the placement port 11, so as to facilitate opening and closing of the transparent blocking door. When the adhesive support needs to be installed, the transparent blocking door is opened to place the adhesive support into the accommodating space from the placement port 11; when the test starts, the transparent blocking door is closed to prevent debris from splashing. In addition, the transparent blocking door makes it convenient for the operator to observe the test status of the adhesive support in the accommodating space from the outside.

[0050] Embodiment 2

[0051] The embodiment of the utility model also provides a testing device, including a testing machine 100 and the above-mentioned test fixture for aircraft adhesive supports, the testing machine 100 includes a driving unit and two clamping heads 101, the two clamping heads 101 can clamp the first connecting rod 13 and the second connecting rod 32 respectively, and the driving unit can drive the two clamping heads 101 to move in opposite directions respectively. By independently driving the two clamping heads 101, the actual force exerted on the adhesive support in situations such as aircraft takeoff, landing and encountering gusts during flight can be accurately simulated, thereby providing more accurate test results. The two clamping heads 101 can clamp the first connecting rod 13 and the second connecting rod 32 of the test fixture respectively, which not only makes the testing device applicable to adhesive supports of various sizes and designs, but also can cope with a variety of test situations, such as tensile tests at different angles and directions. It can be understood that the testing machine 100 uses existing mechanical equipment, and its specific structure and working principle will not be repeated here.
