In addition, during the test, the piston rod of the landing gear not only undergoes a compression movement but also rotates simultaneously. According to the test requirements, it is difficult to accurately measure the rotation angle and compression amount of such a piston rod at the same time. For this reason, a landing gear angle measuring device is proposed. Content of the Utility Model

Detailed implementation mode
[0024] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.
[0025] The following describes the specific implementation of the present utility model in detail with reference to specific embodiments.
[0026] As Figures 1-4 shown, a landing gear angle measuring device provided by an embodiment of the present utility model includes:
[0027] The telescopic amount measuring part includes a laser displacement sensor bracket 1, a laser displacement sensor 2, a first screw 3, a clamp 11, a third screw 12 and a fourth screw 13.
[0028] The angle measuring part includes a nut 4, an induction block fixing seat 5, a bearing 6, a rocker arm 7, a second screw 8, an angle sensor 9, a cushion block 10, an angle sensor base 14, a fifth screw 15, a hoop 16, a sixth screw 17 and a cylindrical pin 18.
[0029] The laser displacement sensor bracket 1 is composed of a laser displacement sensor mounting seat and a guide groove; the laser displacement sensor 2 is fixed on the landing gear outer cylinder through the laser displacement sensor bracket 1; the laser reflection surface of the laser displacement sensor 2 is a fan-shaped plane on the angle sensor base 14.
[0030] The angle sensor base 14 is fixed on the landing gear piston rod through a fifth screw 15, a hoop 16, a sixth screw 17 and a cylindrical pin 18; an installation hole is provided in the angle sensor base 14. Since the angle sensor base 14 is fixed on the landing gear piston rod, the displacement of the laser reflection surface is the contraction displacement of the landing gear piston rod, and thus the telescopic amount of the landing gear piston rod can be directly measured.
[0031] The rocker arm 7 is composed of a hollow rotating shaft, a lever and a rocker arm body. The hollow rotating shaft is fixed in the installation hole of the angle sensor base 14 through a bearing 6, so that the rocker arm 7 can swing flexibly around the hollow rotating shaft. The lever is stuck in the guide groove of the laser displacement sensor bracket 1, and the lever can slide flexibly in the guide groove when the landing gear piston rod rotates.
[0032] The angle sensor 9 is a non-contact inductive angle sensor, which consists of an induction block and a sensor body. The induction block is fixed on the induction block fixing seat 5 by screws. The rotating shaft on the induction block fixing seat 5 passes through the hollow hole of the hollow rotating shaft and is fixed by a nut 4, so that the rotating shaft on the induction block fixing seat 5 can rotate synchronously with the hollow rotating shaft. The sensor body is fixed on the lower surface of the angle sensor base 14 by a cushion block 10 and a second screw 8. After assembly, the distance between the sensor body and the induction block is 2-4 mm. At this time, the angle sensor 9 can measure the rotation angle of the rocker arm 7 around the hollow rotating shaft.
[0033] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the working principle of the telescopic amount measurement is as follows:
[0034] The laser displacement sensor 2 emits a laser beam onto the fan-shaped plane (laser reflection surface) on the angle sensor base 14. When the landing gear piston rod expands and contracts, the angle sensor base 14 (fixed on the landing gear piston rod) moves accordingly, resulting in the displacement of the laser reflection surface. The displacement of the laser reflection surface is the contraction displacement of the landing gear piston rod. Thus, the telescopic amount of the landing gear piston rod can be directly measured.
[0035] The working principle of the angle measurement is as follows:
[0036] When the landing gear piston rod rotates, the angle sensor base 14 rotates accordingly. At this time, the shift lever slides in the guide groove. Since the distance from the hollow rotating shaft of the rocker arm 7 (i.e., the input shaft of the angle sensor 9) to the rotation axis of the landing gear piston rod is equal to the distance to the axis of the shift lever, an isosceles triangle is formed between the swing arm of the shift lever and the angle sensor base 14, as Figure 5 shown. The point where the hollow rotating shaft is located is the vertex B of the isosceles triangle, and α is the angle measured by the angle sensor 9. The angle through which the landing gear piston rod rotates is the base angle β of the isosceles triangle. From the geometric relationship of the isosceles triangle, it is easy to obtain that α = 2β. Thus, the rotation angle of the landing gear piston rod can be measured as α / 2.
[0037] As Figure 1 and 2 shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the laser displacement sensor 2 is fixed on the laser displacement sensor bracket 1 by a first screw 3, and the laser displacement sensor bracket 1 is fixed on the landing gear outer cylinder by a clamp 11, a third screw 12 and a fourth screw 13, and its relative position with the landing gear piston rod is fixed.
[0038] The working principle of the present utility model is:
[0039] For the landing gear angle measuring device, when the landing gear piston rod rotates, the angle sensor base 14 rotates accordingly. At this time, the lever slides in the guide groove. Since the distance from the hollow rotating shaft of the rocker arm 7 (i.e., the input shaft of the angle sensor 9) to the rotation axis of the landing gear piston rod is equal to the distance to the axis of the lever, an isosceles triangle is formed between the swing arm of the lever and the angle sensor base 14. The point where the hollow rotating shaft is located is the vertex B of the isosceles triangle, and α is the angle measured by the angle sensor 9. The angle through which the landing gear piston rod rotates is the base angle β of the isosceles triangle. From the geometric relationship of the isosceles triangle, it is easy to obtain that α = 2β. Thus, the rotation angle of the landing gear piston rod can be measured as α / 2.
[0040] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several modifications and improvements can still be made, which should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention, and these will not affect the implementation effect of the present invention and the practicability of the patent.
