Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of special tools for aircraft maintenance, and in particular to a tool for preventing aircraft dust caps from falling off. Background Art
[0002] The dust cap of the aircraft is located in a small area of the wheel hub. When removing the dust cap, it often falls into the wheel hub. Due to the small space of the maintenance port, it is very difficult to remove the dust cap if it falls into the wheel hub. The aircraft tire needs to be removed, which delays the maintenance time and reduces the maintenance efficiency. If it is left in the wheel hub, it may even cause a serious accident during the take-off and landing of the aircraft. Utility Model Content
[0003] The main purpose of the present application is to provide an aircraft dust cap anti-falling tool, aiming to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0004] The technical solutions adopted in this application are as follows:
[0005] A tool for preventing an aircraft dust cap from falling off comprises a receiving basket, wherein the receiving basket can enter a wheel hub from a maintenance port, the receiving basket is provided with a bag drop hole, a storage bag is provided at the bag drop hole, a hand-held handle is provided on the receiving basket, a pickup port is provided on the storage bag, and a zipper is sewn at the pickup port.
[0006] Optionally, the end of the hand-held handle is connected to an indicator ribbon via a silk thread, and the indicator ribbon is printed with "Remove before takeoff".
[0007] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are:
[0008] An embodiment of the present application proposes a tool to prevent aircraft dust caps from falling off. A receiving basket with a storage bag is provided, and the receiving basket is extended from a maintenance port into the wheel hub to catch the dust cap that falls during disassembly, and the fallen dust cap is allowed to enter the storage bag from the bag drop port, thereby preventing the dust cap from falling into the wheel hub during disassembly, thereby significantly improving the maintenance efficiency to a certain extent. If the dust cap is left in the wheel hub, it may even cause a serious accident during take-off and landing of the aircraft. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0010] Description of the reference numerals in the accompanying drawings:
[0011] 1- receiving basket, 2- pocket hole, 3- storage bag, 4- zipper, 5- hand handle, 6- indicator ribbon. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0012] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0013] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present application (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.
[0014] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixation", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" 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 an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0015] In addition, if there are descriptions involving "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the present application, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In addition, the meaning of "and / or" appearing in the full text includes three parallel schemes. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes scheme A, or scheme B, or a scheme that satisfies both A and B. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in the field to implement. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this application.
[0016] Refer to the attached Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an aircraft dust cap anti-falling tool, including a receiving basket 1, wherein the contour of the receiving basket 1 is smaller than the wheel hub inspection port, so that the receiving basket 1 can enter the wheel hub from the inspection port and approach the dust cap, so that when the dust cap is removed, the receiving basket 1 is used to catch the dust cap that falls during the removal, thereby preventing the dust cap from falling into the wheel hub.
[0017] In the above, a bag drop hole 2 is provided at the bottom of the receiving basket 1, and a storage bag 3 is provided at the bag drop hole 2. The storage bag 3 is located outside the receiving basket 1. After the dust cap falls into the receiving basket 1, the maintenance personnel can operate the receiving basket 1 to make the dust cap roll from the bag drop hole 2 into the storage bag 3 for caching, thereby avoiding the situation of having to take out a dust cap when disassembling one dust cap, which can effectively improve the maintenance efficiency.
[0018] In addition, in order to facilitate the removal of the dust cap in the storage bag 3, Figure 1 As shown, the storage bag 3 is provided with a taking-out opening, and a zipper 4 is sewn at the taking-out opening. The dust cap in the storage bag 3 can be taken out by opening the zipper 4, which is very convenient.
[0019] In a preferred embodiment, in order to facilitate the operation of holding the receiving basket 1, see Figure 1 As shown, a hand-held handle 5 is provided on the receiving basket 1, for maintenance personnel to hold the hand-held handle 5 to operate the receiving basket 1. Of course, in order to hold the hand-held handle 5 with one hand and conveniently hold the maintenance tool with the other hand for operation, the length of the hand-held handle 5 should not be too long, and can generally be (1 / 2 to 1) times the long axis length of the receiving basket 1.
[0020] At the same time, due to strict requirements on the removed parts, an indicator ribbon 6 is connected to the end of the middle handle 5 by a silk thread, and the indicator ribbon 6 is printed with Chinese and English translations of "Remove before takeoff" to remind that the dust cap in the tool is a part removed from the aircraft to avoid confusion.
[0021] In summary, the invention provides an aircraft dust cap anti-falling tool, and its method of use is:
[0022] The maintenance personnel holds the handle 5 in one hand to send the receiving basket 1 from the inspection port into the wheel hub and approach the dust cap. The maintenance personnel holds the maintenance tool in the other hand to remove the dust cap. The removed dust cap falls into the receiving basket 1. The maintenance personnel operates the receiving basket 1 to make the removed dust cap fall from the bag drop hole 2 into the storage bag 3 for buffering. After the inspection is completed, the maintenance personnel can open the zipper 4 to take out the removed dust cap.
[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
