Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of aircraft parts, and in particular to an aircraft main landing gear structure. Background Technology

[0002] Landing gear is an important component of an aircraft that provides load-bearing capacity and ground steering control. It is an essential support system for aircraft takeoff, landing, taxiing, ground movement, and parking. It can withstand the impact load during landing and smoothly absorb collision energy.

[0003] Currently, most aircraft on the market use main landing gear. During takeoff, landing, or taxiing, the aircraft experiences a significant impact from contact with the ground, resulting in a large load. Consequently, the main landing gear connection points bear considerable force, causing significant damage. Because aircraft need to reduce wind resistance during flight, they are designed with special streamlines. To further reduce wind resistance, during taxiing, the lower wind resistance causes the aircraft to taxi a longer distance, making it difficult to stop in time. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an aircraft main landing gear structure, which aims to solve the technical problem that the aircraft has low wind resistance and therefore a long taxiing distance.

[0006] The outer support is divided into two parts: the main landing gear plate and the main landing gear inner frame. The main landing gear plate is movably connected to both sides of the main landing gear inner frame by bolts. The main landing gear inner frame is fixed to the fuselage. A wheel hub brake assembly is installed at the bottom of the main landing gear plate. A fixed side frame is also fixed to the main landing gear plate to increase the stability of the outer support.

[0007] Preferably, the fixed side frame and the main landing gear plate are fixed together to the inner frame of the main landing gear with bolts, and the interior of the fixed side frame is hollow.

[0008] Preferably, the main landing gear plate and the main landing gear inner frame are slidably connected, wherein the two end faces of the main landing gear inner frame are respectively provided with an outer groove and an inner groove, the main landing gear plate slides in the inner groove, and the outer groove and the inner groove are connected by a sliding hole.

[0009] As preferred, the both side end faces of the outer groove are rotationally connected with a baffle, a torsion spring is used on the rotation axis of the baffle, and a plurality of main opening blocks are fixed on the one side end face of the baffle and arranged in a semi-arc shape.

[0010] As preferred, a connecting protrusion is fixed on the end face of the main landing gear plate, the connecting protrusion slides in the sliding hole, a connecting plate is arranged in the outer groove, the connecting plate is fixed on the connecting protrusion through bolts, a plurality of auxiliary opening blocks are fixed on the one side edge of the connecting plate and arranged in a semi-arc shape.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the aircraft main landing gear structure has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. The pressure on the fuselage can be distributed on the two fixed side frames through the support of the two fixed side frames, so that the damage to the connection between the main landing gear plate and the main landing inner frame is effectively reduced, and the service life is prolonged.

[0013] 2. The aircraft can be quickly stopped and the sliding distance is shortened during the sliding process of the fuselage landing through the additional wind resistance of the baffle.
