Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of flutter models, in particular to a dual-purpose mold for manufacturing and assembling a flutter model of a wooden partition frame structure. Background Art

[0002] Flutter is a self-excited vibration phenomenon caused by the interaction of aerodynamic, inertial, and elastic forces when an aircraft moves in airflow. When the flight speed exceeds the flutter speed, the aircraft's structure will be damaged, affecting aircraft safety. Therefore, during aircraft development, based on the requirements of similarity in aerodynamics, structural dynamics, and geometry, a scaled-down flutter model is used in wind tunnels to study the influence of structural parameters on flutter characteristics. This is used to verify the flutter characteristics of designed aircraft and validate theoretical calculation methods.

[0003] In the prior art, flutter models mostly use a wooden frame structure. For example, the applicant provides a dimensional box and a flutter wing wind tunnel model in the patent publication number "CN117606742A". The flutter model includes a supporting beam frame and several dimensional boxes, such as Figure 1 As shown, the dimensional box consists of four side ribs that form a main body with open ends. The skin is bonded to the open ends of the main body. A central rib is also located in the middle of the main body. The tops of the side and central ribs are each provided with a notch for mounting a support beam. The support beam is installed behind the notch, which is then sealed with a sealing plate. Currently, this type of model typically only has a dedicated mold for skin manufacturing, without a corresponding assembly mold, making it difficult to control the installation dimensions of the assembled model.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] refer to Figure 1 A dual-purpose mold for manufacturing and assembling a flutter model for a wood bulkhead structure includes a mold body 1 having an inner profile 101. Inner profile 101 matches the flutter model's skin. This means that the size and shape of inner profile 101 are consistent with the flutter model's skin. During skin manufacturing, the skin is applied to inner profile 101 and trimmed along the edges of inner profile 101 to the desired flutter model skin size. Furthermore, in this embodiment, inner profile 101 has a step formed on the mold body 1 to facilitate skin application.

[0030] refer to Figure 2The inner surface 101 is provided with a number of crisscross limiting grooves 102 (it should be understood that the application of the skin should be before the limiting grooves 102 are processed). The limiting grooves 102 divide the inner surface 101 into a number of mounting surfaces 103 for carrying the dimensional box 8. The size of the mounting surface 103 matches the outer dimensions of the dimensional box 8. The width of the limiting groove 102 is equal to the gap width between adjacent dimensional boxes 8. A limiting plate 6 for limiting the position of the dimensional box 8 is provided in the limiting groove 102. It should be understood that the width of the limiting plate 6 is also equal to the gap width between adjacent dimensional boxes 8. After the dimensional box 8 is placed on the mounting surface 103, there are limiting plates 6 on all four sides to limit the degree of freedom of the dimensional box 8 (reference Figure 8-Figure 9 ).

[0031] refer to Figure 3 , several mounting surfaces 103 are provided with mounting grooves 104, and the mounting grooves 104 are provided with beam positioning blocks 2 for carrying the support beam 9. The beam positioning blocks 2 are detachably connected with a clamping structure for clamping them. This arrangement facilitates limiting the degree of freedom of the support beam 9.

[0032] It can be seen that the mold provided in this application can not only be used to apply the skin, but also can limit the degrees of freedom of the dimensional box 8 and the supporting beam 9 when assembling the flutter model, so as to facilitate the control of the installation size of the flutter model after assembly. Moreover, since the skin application and model assembly are carried out on the same mold body 1, the consistency and overlap of the skin and the dimensional box 8 can be guaranteed.

[0033] There is no limit to the number of positioning blocks 2, and the number can be more or less as long as it can define the full degree of freedom of the support beam 9. There is no limit to the fixing method of the positioning blocks 2, as long as they can be relatively fixed to the mold body 1. For example, the positioning blocks 2 can be bonded to the mold body 1 or connected with fasteners (such as screws).

[0034] In this embodiment, two types of compression structures are provided. The first compression structure (refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 ) includes a fastening screw 3, the support beam 9 and the beam positioning block 2 are connected by the fastening screw 3, that is, a through hole is preset on the support beam 9, and a threaded hole is set on the mold body 1. After the support beam 9 is installed, the fastening screw 3 is connected to limit the freedom of the support beam 9.

[0035] The second compression structure (reference Figure 4 and Figure 5) includes connecting screws 4 and a pressing plate 5. The positioning block 2 is provided with a beam retaining groove 201 for mounting the support beam 9. The pressing plate 5 is connected to the positioning block 2 via the connecting screws 4, and the pressing plate 5 compresses the support beam 9. That is, at least two through holes are provided on the pressing plate 5, and corresponding threaded holes are provided on the mold body 1. After the support beam 9 is installed in the beam retaining groove 201, the pressing plate 5 is connected via the connecting screws 4 to compress the support beam 9. Furthermore, the depth of the beam retaining groove 201 is less than or equal to the thickness of the support beam 9, ensuring that the support beam 9 can be compressed.

[0036] It is easy to understand that in actual application, only the first clamping structure or the second clamping structure can be used to limit the degree of freedom of the support beam 9. Of course, the two clamping structures can also be used in combination. It should be understood that for different clamping structures, the structure of the positioning block 2 is also different.

[0037] refer to Figure 6 (It should be noted that, in this figure, for ease of observation, the height of the limit plate 6 and the side baffle 7 are shown to be higher than the dimensional box 8; and only part of the limit plate 6 is shown). When one end of the flutter model is flush with the side of the inner surface 101, the side of the inner surface 101 is connected to the side baffle 7 for limiting the position of the dimensional box 8 through a fastener (such as a screw). It is easy to understand that the side baffle 7 acts as the limit plate 6, that is, it limits the degree of freedom of the dimensional box 8.

[0038] In this embodiment, the limit plate 6 is placed in the limit groove 102 for quick removal. Further, the height of the limit plate 6 and the height of the side baffle 7 are less than the minimum height of the dimensional box 8, which is convenient for applying the skin after assembly.

[0039] Based on the above, the assembly process of the flutter model is as follows:

[0040] S1. Assemble the side ribs 801 and the middle ribs 802 of each dimensional box 8 (usually, adjacent side ribs 801 and the side ribs 801 and the middle ribs 802 are connected by mortise and tenon structures), and place them on the corresponding mounting surface 103 of the mold body 1;

[0041] S2. After the dimensional box 8 is correctly placed, the limiting plate 6 is inserted into the limiting groove 102 so that each dimensional box 8 has a limiting plate 6 on all four sides; at the same time, the side baffle 7 is connected, and the limiting plate 6 and the side baffle 7 jointly limit the degree of freedom of each dimensional box 8 (reference Figure 7 and Figure 8 );

[0042] S3, install the support beam 9, the support beam 9 is supported by the positioning block 2, and is fixed by the compression structure to limit its freedom (refer to Figure 9 );

[0043] S4, after confirming that the gap and relative position between the dimensional box 8 and the supporting beam 9 are correct, glue the remaining part of the dimensional box 8 (refer to Figure 10 );

[0044] S5, bonding the model skin and trimming the skin according to the boundary line of the upper limit groove 102 on the mold body 1;

[0045] S6. Take out the limiting plate 6 and remove the flutter model from the mold body 1. The assembly is completed.

[0046] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the present invention is susceptible to various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
