Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a kind of pitot tube assemblies, specifically to a kind of airplane pitot tube assemblies. BACKGROUND

[0002] Pitot tube is important atmospheric data sensor of aircraft, which utilizes pitot tube principle to accurately measure the total pressure and static pressure when flying, and data computer is converted to the flight speed, lift speed and atmospheric pressure data required for flight control by Bernoulli total pressure equation formula etc. To prevent the small hole in front end of pitot tube from icing and blocking in flight, the pitot tube on general aircraft has electric heating device. When aircraft flies forward, airflow rushes into pitot tube, and the inductor at the end of pitot tube will feel the impact force of airflow, i.e. dynamic pressure. The faster aircraft flies, the greater dynamic pressure is. If the pressure when air is static, i.e. static pressure and dynamic pressure are compared, the rushing air can be known how fast, i.e. how fast aircraft flies. The tool for comparing two kinds of pressure is a hollow circular box with corrugated surface made of upper and lower two very thin metal sheets, called diaphragm box.

[0003] When aircraft stays on the ground, foreign matters such as insects and dust can enter pitot tube inside from pitot tube mouth, which increases the risk of pitot tube blocking, and if pitot tube is blocked, atmospheric data measurement result will be deviated, which may cause the value displayed on instrument panel in cockpit to be inconsistent with actual value, thereby affecting the navigation safety of aircraft.
