[0027] Example 1

[0028] A straight-through adapter structure for an aircraft hydraulic system, comprising:

[0029] The main body is designed as a cylindrical structure with a through hole inside. One end of the through hole in the main body is provided with an internal thread 4, which matches the air pressure sensor 7 connector.

[0030] The extension section is designed at the other end of the through hole of the main body. Its outer diameter is smaller than that of the main body. An external thread 3 is provided on the outer surface of the extension section to match the hydraulic system pipe joint 10.

[0031] The main body is provided with an external hexagonal boss 8, the external hexagonal boss 8 having a size of 1in×δ8mm.

[0032] The cross-section of the body is designed to be hexagonal or circular.

[0033] The extension section is the first mechanical interface 1, and its external thread 3 is a British 6-gauge external thread 3, which conforms to the standard AS4375E06.

[0034] One end of the body with internal thread 4 is a second mechanical interface 2. Its internal thread 4 is a British No. 6 internal thread 4, and the standard is AS5202-06.

[0035] A 4×45° recessed groove 5 is machined at the port of the second mechanical interface 2, and the O-ring 6 is placed exactly in the 4×45° recessed groove 5 for sealing.

[0036] The external hexagonal boss 8 is located on one side of the second mechanical interface 2, and has several fuse holes 9.

[0037] The fuse holes 9 consist of 3 sets, each with a diameter of φ1.2mm, and are machined using a φ1 CNC drill bit. Any one of the 3 sets of fuse holes 9 can be selected to form a double fuse with the fuse hole 9 built into the pressure sensor 7, thus disregarding the installation angle of the pressure sensor 7.

[0038] The through-connector structure is a machined integrated structure, and the material is 06Cr19Ni10, which is resistant to phosphate ester-based hydraulic oil.

[0039] Example 2

The first mechanical interface 1 has an external thread 3, and the second mechanical interface 2 has an internal thread 4. The second mechanical interface 2 has a 4×45° recessed groove 5 for accommodating an O-ring seal 6, ensuring a seal when mated with the external thread 3 of a pressure sensor 7. The direct-connector structure body has an external hexagonal boss 8, with a fuse hole 9 on the boss for double-strand safety with the pressure sensor 7.

[0041] During implementation, manually pre-tighten the first mechanical interface 1 to the hydraulic system pipe connector 10, and manually pre-tighten the second mechanical interface 2 to the pressure sensor 7. When tightening, ensure the O-ring 6 does not lift up. Use two open-end wrenches, one to hold the external hexagonal boss 8 of the straight-through adapter structure and the other to hold the hydraulic system pipe connector 10, to tighten the straight-through adapter structure. Use two open-end wrenches, one to hold the external hexagonal boss 8 of the straight-through adapter structure and the other to hold the pressure sensor 7, to tighten the pressure sensor 7.

[0042] Pass the fuse through fuse hole 9 to provide double-strand protection for the straight-through adapter structure and the pressure sensor 7.

[0043] Thus, the objective of this utility model has been achieved.
