AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, the main struts intersect with the structure at the intersection of the frame beams, resulting in a large number of connection joints and heavy weight, which cannot meet the space constraints and weight requirements.
The main strut connection structure adopts a tension-torsion integrated design. By integrating the main strut with the main strut connecting plate, skin, platform and bilge components, the number of connection joints is reduced. The installation is optimized by adjusting shims and self-lubricating spherical bearings. High-strength steel materials and new bolt anti-loosening methods are used.
This reduces the number of connection joints, lowers weight, improves installation accuracy, avoids lateral loads, meets tension-torsion integration requirements, and reduces structural weight.

[0049] In an embodiment, the main reduction joint is made of high-strength steel material, so that the weight can be effectively reduced.
[0050] In an embodiment, the top surface and the side surface of the main reduction left front joint 1 are connected with the main reduction front support frame 5 and one main reduction connecting strap plate 9 through bolts,
[0051] The top surface and the side surface of the main reduction left rear joint 2 are connected with the main reduction rear support frame 6 and one main reduction connecting strap plate 9 through bolts,

[0059] 2. Can adapt to two two intersection strut connection.
[0060] 3. Can adapt to pull twist integrated main reduction strut connection.
[0061] 4. A semi-closed cavity is not convenient to open the mechanical relaxation mode of the mouth pin.
[0062] 5. In the strut connection place, design self-lubricating joint bearing to avoid the strut from receiving lateral load.
[0063] 6. Design adjusting gasket on both sides of the main reduction joint, which is convenient for adjusting the installation center point of the strut.
[0064] 7. The main reduction joint adopts high-strength steel material, which can effectively reduce the weight.
[0065] 8. High-strength steel adopts cadmium titanium plating process, which can effectively avoid brittle fracture of high-strength steel.
[0066] 9. Lateral load is mainly transmitted by shear of top surface bolt, and vertical load is mainly transmitted by shear of side surface bolt, which can effectively avoid the problem that in traditional design, vertical load is mainly transmitted by tension of bolt, so that the bolt needs to be provided with larger tightening torque, and then the bolt diameter needs to be increased, and then the weight and space are increased.
[0067] 10. The bolt is only connected with the belt plate and the frame, and is not directly extruded with the skin, the belt plate is connected with the skin and the platform through multiple rivets to diffuse the load, which can avoid the extrusion damage of the platform and the skin caused by excessive concentrated load.
[0068] The above only expresses the embodiment of the utility model, and the description is more specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as the limitation of the patent scope. It should be noted that for ordinary skilled persons in the art, without departing from the concept of the utility model, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, which belong to the protection scope of the utility model. In addition, the parts not described in the utility model are conventional technology.
