Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aircraft equipment technology, and in particular to a lifting mechanism for the back of an aircraft luggage compartment. Background Technology
[0002] Aircraft baggage compartments are facilities designed for passengers to store their carry-on luggage, typically located within the aircraft cabin. These compartments have a large load capacity and must withstand flight loads, vibrations during operation, ground loads, and loads associated with emergency landings. Therefore, the baggage compartments need to be securely connected to the aircraft structure. Furthermore, safety requirements on civil aircraft are higher than for ordinary equipment, necessitating more safety redundancy in the design of the baggage compartment's installation.
[0003] To address these issues, a rear-mounted mechanism for aircraft luggage is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a rear-mounting mechanism for aircraft luggage, solving the technical problem of securely locking the luggage.
[0006] (II) Technical Solution
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0008] An aircraft overhead luggage rack mounting mechanism, including
[0009] The base assembly and the lifting assembly are fixed to the luggage compartment body by screws and inserts. The upper end of the lifting assembly is embedded in the C-shaped groove of the aircraft frame to achieve a stable and secure installation of the luggage rack on the aircraft frame. The lifting assembly is snapped into the base assembly. The base assembly is equipped with a shock-absorbing component to buffer the vertical vibration of the luggage compartment body.
[0010] A vertical rack and pinion assembly is provided between the hoisting assembly and the base assembly to buffer the horizontal vibration of the suitcase body.
[0011] The base assembly consists of a shock-absorbing mechanism bracket, a metal inner ring, shock-absorbing rubber, and a shock-absorbing mechanism base plate.
[0012] The shock-absorbing mechanism bracket has a shock-absorbing rubber in the middle. The inner side of the shock-absorbing rubber has a concave shape that matches the outer protrusion of the metal inner ring. The two parts are assembled and then placed inside the shock-absorbing mechanism bracket. The shock-absorbing mechanism base plate is then assembled from the bottom side of the shock-absorbing mechanism bracket. The shock-absorbing rubber is a high-strength rubber that fixes the metal inner ring and the shock-absorbing rubber in the middle. It can absorb shock when subjected to vertical impact, avoiding collisions and abnormal noises. The entire base assembly is fixed to the luggage box body with screws and inserts.
[0013] Preferably, the metal inner ring and the shock-absorbing rubber adopt a concave-convex interlocking structure design, which realizes vertical impact buffering through the deformation characteristics of elastic rubber. During assembly, the pre-assembled metal inner ring and shock-absorbing rubber module are placed into the bracket cavity, and the bottom is fixed in a closed manner through the assembly base plate to form a sandwich structure shock-absorbing unit. This component is connected to the luggage box body through a double mechanical fixing method to ensure installation stability.
[0014] Preferably, the hoisting assembly consists of shock absorber pins, shock absorber toothed plates, hex socket screws, fixing nuts, pins, and end caps.
[0015] Preferably, after the shock absorber pin passes through the shock absorber toothed plate, the top of the shock absorber pin is flush with the shock absorber toothed plate. The upper end of the shock absorber pin and the shock absorber toothed plate are embedded in the C-shaped groove of the aircraft frame. The internal hexagon screw passes through the mounting holes on both sides of the shock absorber toothed plate and is then fixed to the C-shaped groove by the internal hexagon screw.
[0016] Preferably, the shock absorber pin passes through the entire base assembly and is fixed by a washer and a nut. A pin hole is provided at the bottom of the shock absorber pin, and then a pin is inserted into the pin hole to prevent the nut from rotating and falling off, thus achieving a self-locking function. Finally, the end cover is installed on the base plate of the shock absorber mechanism to avoid exposing the internal parts.
[0017] Preferably, the metal inner ring has a toothed structure at its top and the shock absorber toothed plate has a toothed structure at its lower end, which meshes the metal inner ring with the shock absorber toothed plate, increases the friction in the yaw direction, and prevents the shock absorber mechanism from being damaged by too much lateral force. The shock absorber toothed plate structure facilitates the adjustment of the toothed plates on both sides in the yaw direction during installation. The tooth spacing between the toothed plates is 1mm, and the adjustment accuracy is high.
[0018] Preferably, the shock absorber pin passes through the base assembly and is fixed by a double-locking mechanism. The end of the shock absorber pin is equipped with an anti-reverse pin to achieve mechanical self-locking. The upper part of the toothed adjustment plate is connected to the C-groove of the aircraft frame through a multi-point positioning device, and the lower part adopts a detachable end cap to achieve protective encapsulation of the internal components. The specially designed bidirectional meshing mechanism precisely meshes the top teeth of the metal inner ring with the lower teeth of the adjustment plate to form a yaw friction enhancement system, which effectively resists lateral load impact.
[0019] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0020] 1. An innovative composite shock absorption system with shock absorption components effectively absorbs impact energy through the synergistic effect of elastic materials and mechanical structures, preventing the suitcase from colliding or making abnormal noises when it is subjected to vibration during flight;
[0021] 2. The bidirectional toothed meshing mechanism significantly improves the yaw friction coefficient, constructs an anti-displacement safety barrier, and avoids damage caused by excessive displacement of the base assembly and hoisting assembly in the yaw direction when subjected to impact. The modular adjustment tooth plate, combined with the precision tooth pitch design, enables high-precision fine-tuning of the installation position.
[0022] 4. The multi-safety locking system integrates mechanical self-locking and anti-loosening devices. The locking structure uses a fixed nut and a pin to achieve the self-locking function and prevent the base assembly and the hoisting assembly from separating.
[0023] The mechanism consists of a base assembly and a hoisting assembly forming a collaborative working system. The base assembly adopts a multi-layer composite shock-absorbing structure, and the hoisting assembly is equipped with a self-locking fixing device. The two form a multi-dimensional stability system through a meshing linkage mechanism. The structural design fully considers the special operating conditions of aircraft. Through mechanical optimization and modular design, it achieves the organic unity of shock absorption, multi-dimensional positioning and long-term stability in a limited space, providing an innovative solution for the installation of onboard equipment.

[0038] The base assembly 1 and the mounting assembly 2 are used. The base assembly 1 is fixed to the luggage compartment body with screws and inserts. The upper end of the mounting assembly 2 is embedded in the C-shaped groove of the aircraft frame, thus achieving a stable and secure installation of the luggage rack onto the aircraft frame (e.g., Figure 5 As shown), the hoisting component 2 is snapped into the base component 1.

[0041] A damping rubber 13 is provided in the center of the damping mechanism bracket 11. The damping rubber 13 has a concave inner side that matches the convex outer side of the metal inner ring 12. The two parts are assembled and then placed inside the damping mechanism bracket 11. The damping mechanism base plate 14 is then assembled from the underside of the damping mechanism bracket 11. The damping rubber 13 is a high-strength rubber (deforms 1mm per 800N). The metal inner ring 12 and the damping rubber 13 are fixed in the middle (e.g., Figure 4 As shown), it can absorb shock when subjected to vertical impact to avoid collisions and abnormal noises.
