Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of aircraft maintenance equipment, especially is used for electric filling device and interface structure thereof of helicopter hydraulic damper filling. BACKGROUND

[0002] Hydraulic damper is one of the core components in the rotor system of modern helicopters, and is widely used in the connecting structure between the hub and the blade. Its main function is to provide additional fluid damping force and a certain degree of flexible support for the flapping motion of the rotor blade, so as to suppress the beat vibration and phase difference fluctuation of the blade relative to the hub. Through the energy dissipation effect of the fluid flow in the damper, the coupling phenomenon between the inherent frequency of the structure and the external excitation is effectively alleviated, and dangerous resonance modes are prevented, especially to prevent "ground resonance" during take-off and landing and avoid "air resonance" during flight.

[0003] The hydraulic damper is composed of a high-strength sealed shell, a piston assembly, an internal oil cavity and a damping hole, and its performance is highly dependent on the filling state and sealing integrity of the internal hydraulic oil. With the increase of flight cycles and long-term operation under high-frequency variable load environment, the hydraulic damper is prone to problems such as oil consumption, oil temperature rise and seal aging, which in turn leads to internal hydraulic oil leakage or deficiency. Once the hydraulic oil level is not replenished in time, it will directly affect the damping force provided by the damper, reduce the damping performance of the rotor system, and further cause local strong vibration of the machine body, accelerate structural fatigue and flight safety hazards.

[0004] Therefore, during the daily maintenance and inspection of the helicopter, the hydraulic oil state of the hydraulic damper needs to be checked and maintained regularly. At present, the commonly used hydraulic oil filling method mainly relies on manual pump hydraulic device to complete. This kind of traditional equipment is usually large in size, complex in structure, inconvenient to carry and not suitable for operation in the field or limited space. In addition, such equipment generally lacks functions such as flow control, pressure feedback and oil display, and is prone to problems such as excessive oil filling and oil leakage during filling, which not only affects the maintenance efficiency, but also may contaminate the equipment. Especially when the maintenance support task needs to be quickly executed in the field, the traditional filling device has the disadvantages of complicated process, slow response and difficult docking, which is difficult to meet the efficient, reliable and precise support needs of modern aviation equipment.

[0005] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a portable hydraulic oil filling device with compact structure, light weight, strong adaptability and precise oil quantity control, which has the characteristics of handheld operation, electric drive, automatic stop and visual feedback, to meet the on-site rapid maintenance needs of the hydraulic damper in the rotor system of the helicopter, improve the filling efficiency and operation safety, and ensure the smooth execution of the flight task and the reliable maintenance of the equipment state.
