Detailed implementation manners

[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please refer to Figure 1-7, the present utility model provides a technical solution for a carrier bracket structure connected to an aircraft floor clip and a door frame structure: including an aircraft door frame 101, a door frame stop block 102, an aircraft floor 104, a floor clip 103 and a bracket main body. The bracket main body is clamped inside the door frame stop block 102. The bracket main body includes a transverse base 201, left and right longitudinal support frames 202 and a transverse connecting shaft 203. A carrier installation structure is provided outside the bracket main body. One end of the carrier installation structure is installed with a carrier device 105. The longitudinal support frame 202 is arranged above the transverse base 201. The transverse connecting shaft 203 is arranged inside the longitudinal support frame 202. Both sides of the transverse base 201 are clamped inside the floor clip 103. Stop block locking mechanisms are provided on both sides of the bracket main body. The left and right sides of the bracket main body are clamped inside the door frame stop block 102 through the stop block locking mechanisms.

[0024] Specifically, floor clip lock pins 301 are provided on both the left and right sides of the transverse base 201. The floor clip lock pins 301 are retractable lock pins. The floor clip lock pins 301 include a lock tongue 301B and a dial 301C. One end of the dial 301C is provided with a guide member 303. The guide member 303 is slidably connected inside the transverse base 201. A compression spring 302 is provided outside the guide member 303. One end of the floor clip lock pin 301 is slidably connected inside the aircraft floor clip 103 through the compression spring 302. The other end of the floor clip lock pin 301 is slidably connected inside the transverse base 201 through the compression spring 302.

[0025] Specifically, the stop block locking mechanism includes a limit card slot 401, a limit pin 402, a limit lock 403 and an unlocking handle 404. The limit card slots 401 are installed at both ends of the transverse connecting shaft 203. A V-shaped groove 401B is provided inside the limit card slot 401. The V-shaped groove 401B is clamped outside the door frame stop block 102. The unlocking handle 404 is provided at the top of the limit card slot 401. The unlocking handle 404 is movably connected inside the limit card slot 401 below. One end of the limit pin 402 is provided with an unlocking dial 402B. The limit lock 403 is located at one end of the limit pin 402. One end of the limit lock 403 is provided with a lock inclined surface 403B.

[0026] Specifically, the carrier installation structure includes a mounting seat 501, a connecting lock hook 502 and a lock hook rotating shaft 503. One end of the mounting seat 501 is provided with a mounting hole 501B. The mounting seat 501 is connected to the carrier device 105 through bolts. The connecting lock hook 502 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 501. A torsion spring 504 is provided outside the lock hook rotating shaft 503 to connect the lock hook 502 and the mounting seat for rotational connection.

[0027] In this implementation scheme, the transverse base 201 and the transverse connecting shaft 203 are connected by bolts to form an integral structure. The bottom surfaces of the transverse base 201 and the longitudinal support frames 202 are in contact with the aircraft floor 104. The aircraft floor 104 restricts the overall downward degree of freedom.

[0028] The floor clip locking pin 301 tends to move outward under the spring force of the compression spring 302. The floor clip locking pin 301 moves outward along the guide 303 until it fits against the inner wall of the transverse base 201. At this time, the locking tongue 301B extends into the floor clip 103. The floor clip 103 is fixed to the aircraft floor 104 by bolts on the aircraft. Under the restriction of the floor clips 103 on both sides of the aircraft door, the degrees of freedom of upward, inward, outward, leftward, and rightward movement of the overall structure formed by the clip locking pin 301, the transverse base 201, the transverse connecting shaft 203, and the transverse connecting shaft 203 are restricted. At this time, the connection and locking through the floor clip 103 are achieved.

[0029] The doorframe stop block 102 is installed on the aircraft doorframes 101 on both sides of the aircraft by bolts. The limit card slot 401 is fixedly connected to the transverse connecting shaft 203 by bolts. When the V-shaped grooves 401B installed on both sides of the transverse connecting shaft 203 are inserted into the doorframe stop block 102 at the same time, the degrees of freedom of inward, outward, leftward, and rightward movement of the overall structure formed by the limit card slot 401, the transverse bases 201 and 203, and the transverse connecting shaft 203 are restricted. The limit pin 402 tends to move outward under the action of the compression spring inside the transverse connecting shaft 203. The limit pin 402 moves outward along the inner wall of the transverse connecting shaft 203 until it is limited. At this time, the upper surface of the limit pin 402 extends below the doorframe stop block 102, and the degree of freedom of upward movement of the overall structure formed by the limit pin 402, the transverse base 201, the transverse connecting shaft 203, and the transverse connecting shaft 203 is formed through the lower side of the doorframe stop block 102. At this time, the connection and locking through the doorframe stop blocks 102 on both sides of the aircraft doorframe 101 are achieved.

[0030] The above-mentioned connection methods through the floor clip 103 and the doorframe stop block 102 are independent of each other. The operation of one connection does not affect the other connection; the structural compositions of the two connections are independent of each other. If one connection structure fails, it does not affect the other connection structure. Only when both the doorframe stop block 102 and the floor clip 103 fail at the same time, or the two connection structures involved in the present invention fail at the same time, can a functional failure occur.

[0031] The limit lock 403 is fixedly connected to the unlocking handle 404 by threads. The limit lock 403 passes through the inside of the limit card slot 401. A compression spring 302 is installed along the limit lock 403 inside the limit card slot 401. The limit lock 403 tends to move downward under the action of the compression spring 302 until it is limited by the inner wall of the limit card slot 401. At this time, the lock inclined surface 403B extends out of the outer surface of the limit card slot 401.

[0032] When connecting the bracket involved in the present invention to the aircraft, first push the unlocking levers 402B at both ends of the transverse connecting shaft 203 inward, overcoming the acting force of the compression spring inside the transverse connecting shaft 203. During the pushing process, the limit pins 402 contact the locking inclined surfaces 403B. Continue to push the unlocking levers 402B inward. Under the action of the limit pins 402, the limit locks 403 move upward against the spring force. Push the unlocking levers 402B until the unlocking levers 402B completely enter between the limit locks 403 and the transverse connecting shaft 203. The limit locks 403 descend under the action of the spring force and return to their original positions. At this time, the unlocking levers 402B are limited by the limit locks 403, and the two limit pins 402 remain in the non-protruding state.

[0033] Lift the overall structure and suspend it above the cabin floor. Align the V-shaped grooves 401B on both sides with the doorframe stop blocks 102, and place the overall structure downward along the doorframe stop blocks 102. At the same time, push the levers 301C inward until the floor clip locking pins 301 are limited by the transverse base 201 and cannot be pushed further. Place the overall structure on the aircraft floor 104, slightly adjust the position of the overall structure, release the levers 301C, and the floor clip locking pins 301 pop out under the action of the compression springs 302, and the locking tongues 301B extend into the floor clips 103. Then pull the unlocking handles 404 on both sides upward to release the limitation on the unlocking levers 402B. The limit pins 402 pop out under the action of the spring force, and the limit pins 402 extend to the lower side of the doorframe stop blocks 102 to complete the connection with the aircraft.

[0034] When disconnecting the bracket involved in the present invention from the aircraft, push the unlocking levers 402B at both ends of the transverse connecting shaft 203 inward, overcoming the acting force of the compression spring 302 inside the transverse connecting shaft 203. During the pushing process, the limit pins 402 contact the locking inclined surfaces 403B. Continue to push the unlocking levers 402B inward. Under the action of the limit pins 402, the limit locks 403 move upward against the spring force. Push the unlocking levers 402B until the unlocking levers 402B completely enter between the limit locks 403 and the transverse connecting shaft 203. The limit locks 403 descend under the action of the spring force and return to their original positions. At this time, the unlocking levers 402B are limited by the limit locks 403, and the limitation on the upward degree of freedom by the stop blocks is released.

[0035] At the same time, push the levers 301C on both sides inward until the floor clip locking pins 301 are limited by the transverse base 201 and cannot be pushed, at which time the degrees of freedom of the floor clip in the inward, outward, leftward, rightward, and upward directions are released.

[0036] Keep the levers 301C in their current positions, and lift the overall structure formed by the transverse base 201, the transverse connecting shaft 203, and the transverse connecting shaft 203 upward until the V-shaped grooves 401B disengage from the doorframe stop blocks 102. At this time, all degrees of freedom are released, and the connection with the aircraft is disconnected.

[0037] The mounting seat 501 is fixedly connected to the carrier 105 by bolts, so that the quick installation and quick removal of the mounting seat 501 can be achieved, and the quick installation and quick removal of the carrier 105 can be completed.

[0038] A lock hook shaft 503 is provided on the mounting seat 501 , and a torsion spring 504 is installed around the lock hook shaft 503 between the connecting lock hook 502 and the mounting seat 501 . The connecting lock hook 502 has an upward tendency when in use, that is, a locking tendency.

[0039] When the mounting base 501 needs to be connected to the transverse connecting shaft 203, the connecting lock hook 502 is pulled upward to overcome the spring force. Figure 6 The mounting seat 501 is rotated clockwise to a certain angle, and the positions of the mounting seats 501 on both sides are adjusted at the same time, and the connecting lock hook 502 is released. The connecting lock hook 502 rotates counterclockwise under the action so that it hooks the horizontal connecting shaft 203 to form a lock.

[0040] When the connection between the mounting seat 501 and the transverse connecting shaft 203 needs to be released, press Figure 6 The connecting lock hooks 502 on both sides are rotated clockwise to a certain angle so that the connecting lock hooks 502 are separated from the limit of the horizontal connecting shaft 203, and the mounting seat 501 is lifted to release the connection.

[0041] The mounting seat 501 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 501B at different positions. According to the requirements of different carriers for the mounting position, the mounting holes 501B at different positions can be selected for connection. Meanwhile, the mounting device 501C can be adaptively adjusted according to the connecting surface of the carrier 105. It can be a flat surface connection, a curved surface connection, or other adapter connection.

[0042] The aircraft is connected to the aircraft by two measures, namely, the aircraft floor clamp 103 and the door frame stop block 102. When one of the measures for connecting to the aircraft fails, the connection safety is not affected. The connection method with the aircraft is a quick installation and quick release connection. No additional tools are required and no operation on the aircraft is required. In addition, the type of the carrier 105 is not limited. The carrier 105 is fixedly connected to the carrier 105 through a variety of mounting seats 501 interfaces. It is suitable for a variety of carriers 105. The bracket is designed with double safety locking to improve the reliability and safety of the connection.

[0043] It should be noted that in this text, relational terms such as first and second are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the term "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device comprising a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or further includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. Without further limitation, an element defined by the statement "comprising an..." does not exclude the presence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article or device comprising said element.

[0044] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
