DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0021] See also Figure 1-3 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0022] A shock absorbing device for aircraft parts comprises a landing gear 1, wherein the landing gear 1 comprises two groups of tripods 2, two groups of cross beams 3 and two groups of connecting frames 4, and is connected to the aircraft through the connecting frames 4. The two groups of cross beams 3 are respectively arranged above the two groups of tripods 2, and shock absorbing components 5 for buffering the impact force generated when the aircraft lands are respectively arranged between the two groups of tripods 2 and the two groups of cross beams 3. The two groups of connecting frames 4 are respectively connected to the tops of the two groups of cross beams 3. The utility model sets the tripod 2, the cross beam 3 and the shock absorbing component 5 for coordinated use. The tripod 2, as the basic supporting structure of the shock absorbing device, can withstand the weight and impact force from the aircraft, and cooperates with the cross beams to form a stable frame, ensuring that the entire shock absorbing device is not easily deformed or damaged when impacted, thereby ensuring the overall stability and reliability of the shock absorbing device. The shock absorbing component is the core part of the shock absorbing device, which effectively reduces the impact force received by the aircraft when landing by absorbing and dispersing the impact force.

[0023] The shock absorbing assembly 5 includes two groups of fixed sleeves 501, the top ends of the two groups of fixed sleeves 501 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the cross beam 3, the insides of the two groups of fixed sleeves 501 are provided with cavities 502, the bottoms of the two groups of fixed sleeves 501 are slidably plugged with movable rods 503, and the outer walls of the movable rods 503 are slidably connected to the inner walls of the cavities 502, and the bottom ends of the movable rods 503 are fixedly connected to the top ends of the tripods 2;

[0024] It also includes a buffer spring 6, the top end of the buffer spring 6 is fixedly connected to the inner top of the cavity 502, and the bottom end of the buffer spring 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable rod 503;

[0025] It is worth noting that when the impact force acts on the buffer spring 6, the buffer spring 6 will be deformed by the force, and the kinetic energy of the impact force will be converted into elastic energy for storage. This energy conversion makes the compression or extension of the buffer spring 6 by the impact force more uniform, and the kinetic energy is stored in the buffer spring 6. When the impact force ends, the elastic energy stored in the buffer spring 6 is released, and the buffer spring 6 returns to its original state, transferring the stored energy to the outside in the form of buffer force, thereby achieving a shock absorbing effect.

[0026] It also includes a damper 7, the top end of the damper 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the beam 3, the bottom end of the damper 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the tripod 2, and the damper 7 is located between the two sets of fixed sleeves 501;

[0027] By adopting the above case, the damper 7 is a component that can reduce the vibration amplitude of the aircraft, which is mainly achieved by absorbing vibration energy or hindering the propagation of vibration. When the damper 7 is used in combination with the buffer spring 6, it can play a shock-absorbing role. When the buffer spring 6 is vibrated by an external force, the damper 7 absorbs the vibration energy and converts part of the kinetic energy into heat energy or other forms of energy dissipation, thereby reducing the amplitude and frequency of the vibration;

[0028] Both ends of the two sets of tripods 2 are respectively provided with upturned ends 8, and the outer walls of the two sets of tripods 2 are provided with wear-resistant layers 9. By providing the upturned ends 8, the design of the upturned ends 8 can make the tripods 2 form a certain angle when contacting the ground, so as to adapt to different terrains and slopes. This design increases the adaptability and stability of the aircraft under different terrain conditions;

[0029] The tops of the two groups of beams 3 are respectively provided with inclined surfaces 10, and the connecting frame 4 includes a plurality of groups of connecting rods 11, the bottom ends of the plurality of groups of connecting rods 11 are fixedly connected to the tops of the inclined surfaces 10, and reinforcing ribs 12 are respectively fixedly connected between two adjacent groups of connecting rods 11, which play a role in increasing the overall structural strength of the device;

[0030] An energy-absorbing rod 13 is fixedly connected between every two groups of reinforcing ribs 12. The energy-absorbing rod 13 is arranged in an arc shape. By setting the connecting frame 4 and the energy-absorbing rod 13 for coordinated use, the main function of the energy-absorbing rod 13 is to absorb the impact energy generated by the aircraft during the landing process. When the aircraft lands, the energy-absorbing rod 13 can be deformed quickly and absorb the impact energy, thereby reducing damage to aircraft parts.

[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
