Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aircraft landing gear design technology, specifically a landing gear structure for a manned aircraft. Background Technology
[0002] A manned aircraft is a means of transportation that can carry passengers in the air. Through highly integrated technologies, it can perceive, make decisions and control the environment. As an important component of the aircraft, the landing gear not only affects its operational safety, but also relates to the aircraft's applicability and terrain adaptability.
[0003] In existing technologies, landing gear is mostly fixed or simply folding, which is difficult to meet the take-off and landing requirements of complex terrain. In addition, it has the problems of excessive impact force and poor stability during ground taxiing and landing, which have limitations.
[0004] The reason for this problem is that fixed landing gear, due to its fixed structure, is prone to fuselage tilting, tire slippage, or getting stuck in the ground when taking off and landing on uneven, sloping, or soft ground, which seriously affects the stability and safety of the aircraft. On the other hand, simple folding landing gear is still too large in complex terrain, such as narrow valleys or dense urban areas, even when folded, and cannot meet the requirements for takeoff and landing, thus limiting the application range of the aircraft. Fixed and simple folding landing gear cannot effectively absorb and disperse landing impact loads during taxiing and landing, resulting in the aircraft structure bearing greater stress and increasing the risk of structural damage and failure. Therefore, we propose a landing gear structure for manned aircraft to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0027] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0028] Example 1
[0029] This utility model discloses a landing gear structure for a manned aircraft. According to the appendix... Figure 1-2 As shown, it includes a frame 1, a support wheel 2 is provided on one side of the frame 1, and a hydraulic shock absorption unit 3 for aircraft shock absorption is provided at the connection between the frame 1 and the support wheel 2. The hydraulic shock absorption unit 3 includes a landing gear strut 31, a hydraulic component 32 and a shock absorption component 33.
[0030] The landing gear strut 31 is located on one side of the frame 1. The landing gear strut 31 has a segmented structure and is rotatably connected to the frame 1. The hydraulic component 32 is located above the landing gear strut 31 and is drivenly connected to the landing gear strut 31. The hydraulic component 32 is used to drive the landing gear strut 31 to move toward or away from the frame 1. The shock absorber 33 is located inside the landing gear strut 31 and is used to reduce the vibration and impact when the aircraft lands.
[0031] The landing gear strut 31 includes a first strut 311 and a second strut 312; the first strut 311 is located at the upper end of the frame 1; the second strut 312 is located at the lower end of the frame 1. The hydraulic component 32 includes a fixing block 321 and a hydraulic cylinder 322; the hydraulic cylinder 322 is located below the fixing block 321 and is used to push the landing gear strut 31 to move. A fixing rod 34 is provided on one side of the first strut 311, and the fixing rod 34 is fixedly assembled with the first strut 311. The hydraulic component 32 is rotatably connected to the fixing rod 34. A fixing plate 35 is provided on one side of the support wheel 2, and the support wheel 2 is rotatably connected to one side of the fixing plate 35. The other side of the fixing plate 35 is rotatably connected to the landing gear strut 31.
[0032] In this embodiment, the device fixing block 321 is installed on the aircraft, and the frame 1 is set under the guide block 331 and is also fixedly assembled with the aircraft. When landing is required, the hydraulic cylinder 322 is activated, and the hydraulic cylinder 322 pushes the fixing rod 34, which drives the landing gear strut 31 to flip to one side, so that the support wheel 2 contacts the ground downwards, achieving the purpose of landing. After the aircraft takes off, the hydraulic cylinder 322 is activated, and the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 322 retracts, which drives the landing gear strut 31 to flip back to its original position, so that the support wheel 2 is raised and retracted into the interior of the aircraft, completing the landing gear retraction.
[0033] Example 2
[0034] This utility model discloses a landing gear structure for a manned aircraft. More specifically, based on Embodiment 1, it is provided according to the appendix... Figure 1 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, the aircraft includes a frame 1, a support wheel 2 on one side of the frame 1, and a hydraulic shock absorption unit 3 for aircraft shock absorption at the connection between the frame 1 and the support wheel 2. The hydraulic shock absorption unit 3 includes a landing gear strut 31, a hydraulic component 32, and a shock absorption component 33.
[0035] The landing gear strut 31 is located on one side of the frame 1. The landing gear strut 31 has a segmented structure and is rotatably connected to the frame 1. The hydraulic component 32 is located above the landing gear strut 31 and is drivenly connected to the landing gear strut 31. The hydraulic component 32 is used to drive the landing gear strut 31 to move toward or away from the frame 1. The shock absorber 33 is located inside the landing gear strut 31 and is used to reduce the vibration and impact when the aircraft lands.
[0036] The shock absorber 33 includes a guide block 331 and a guide groove 332. The guide block 331 is disposed inside the left landing gear strut 31. The guide groove 332 is formed inside the right landing gear strut 31. The guide block 331 is slidably connected inside the guide groove 332. The shock absorber 33 also includes a positioning block 333, a spring 334, and a limiting block 335. The positioning block 333 is fixedly assembled inside the guide groove 332. The spring 334 is disposed inside the guide groove 332. One end of the spring 334 is fixedly assembled to the positioning block 333, and the other end of the spring 334 is fixedly assembled to the guide block 331. The limiting block 335 is fixedly assembled to one side of the positioning block 333. The limiting block 335 abuts against the guide block 331 and is used to prevent the guide block 331 from falling out of the guide groove 332.
[0037] In this embodiment, when the ground contacts the support wheel 2, the guide block 331 slides into the guide groove 332. At this time, the spring 334 tightens. The spring 334 is a high-strength spring 334. When the spring 334 deforms, the impact force generated when the ground contacts the support wheel 2 is dissipated, which reduces the impact force and ensures the safety of the machine body components. Since a limit block 335 is installed inside the guide groove 332, its end abuts against the guide block 331 to prevent the guide block 331 from falling out of the guide groove 332, thus meeting the user's needs.
[0038] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
