[0002] pylon 1 is primarily used for suspending and launching various airborne weapons, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the upper front and rear ends of the bracket 1 are fixed and have fixing holes 3. The lugs 21 at the lower part of the hanging beam 2 are provided with mounting holes 4. After the fixing holes 3 of the bracket 1 are aligned with the mounting holes 4 of the hanging beam 2, the bracket 1 can be installed in the lugs 21 at the lower end of the hanging beam 2 by bolts passing through the fixing holes 3 and mounting holes 4, so as to achieve the purpose of hanging the machine.

[0003] The mounting bracket needs to be disassembled and reassembled frequently during inspection or replacement. Because the fit between the mounting bracket and the lower end lug of the mounting beam is too tight, and the mounting bracket weighs tens of kilograms, it requires three people to disassemble and reassemble it. Heavier mounting brackets even require four people to install.

[0004] During installation, two or three people lift the bracket, one in front and one behind, and insert both ends of the bracket into the lugs at the bottom of the hanging beam. During the installation process, the people in front and behind are responsible for moving the bracket up and down or back and forth, while one person is responsible for visually observing the alignment between the holes on the upper part of the bracket and the holes on the lugs. After the holes are aligned, the bolts are inserted, and the installation of the bracket is completed.

[0005] Because of the significant friction between the upper surface of the bracket and the lugs, considerable force is required to move it back and forth or up and down to align it with the holes. During this movement, it is difficult to control the displacement and force, leading to repeated attempts and making the installation process time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, designing a bracket installation and positioning tool is essential to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0036] To make the technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the exemplary embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not an exhaustive list of all embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0037] This utility model embodiment provides a hanger installation and positioning tool, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the mounting and positioning tool includes a front positioning tool 5 mounted on a pair of ear plates 21 and a rear positioning tool 6 mounted on the other pair of ear plates 21; as Figure 4 As shown, the front positioning tool 5 and the rear positioning tool 6 have a symmetrical structure, and the front positioning tool 5 and the rear positioning tool 6 respectively cooperate with a pair of lugs 21 at the lower end of the hanging beam 2, as shown. Figure 3As shown, the front positioning tool 5 is installed between a pair of lugs 21 on the left side, and the rear positioning tool 6 is installed between another pair of lugs 21 on the right side. Since the front positioning tool 5 and the rear positioning tool 6 are symmetrical structures, in this embodiment, only the front positioning tool 5 will be described as an example. The front positioning tool 5 and the rear positioning tool 6 are respectively placed in the lugs 21 on the lower sides of the front and rear ends of the hanging beam 2. The front positioning tool 5 and the rear positioning tool 6 can restrict the forward and backward and up and down movement of the hanging bracket 1, achieving the purpose of rapid positioning. They also enable the fixing hole 3 of the hanging bracket 1 to be quickly aligned with the mounting hole 4 of the hanging beam 2, facilitating the installation of the bolts connecting the lugs 21 and the hanging bracket 1.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, the front positioning tool 5 includes a filler 51 and a fixing plate 52 fixedly connected to the outer end face of the filler 51. The filler 51 fills the upper space between the two ear pieces 21. The filler 51 can prevent the upward movement of the hanger 1, so as to achieve vertical positioning of the hanger 1. The upper part of the filler 51 matches the shape of the space between the two ear pieces 21, so that the filler 51 can be stably and reliably installed between the two ear pieces 21, avoiding the filler 51 from shaking in the vertical and longitudinal directions. The filler 51 is used to limit the top of the hanger 1. The bottom surface of the filler 51 matches the shape of the top surface of the hanger 1, and the bottom surface can be a plane. The inner end face of the filler 51 is a plane, that is, the inner end face is... Figure 4 The surface marked with through hole 53 in the attached drawing.

[0039] The fixing plate 52 has a flange protruding from the filler 51. The side of the flange facing the filler 51 is in contact with the outer end face of the ear piece 21, which is used to realize the installation and positioning of the filler 51 in the ear piece 21 and the end positioning of the hanger 1. The inner end face of the flange is in contact with the outer end face of the ear piece 21 to position the front positioning tool 5 between the ear pieces 21. The flange can be used to directly determine whether the front positioning tool 5 is installed in the lateral direction. One side of the filler 51 is the fixing plate 52. The shape of the fixing plate 52 is consistent with the shape of one side of the filler 51. The size of the fixing plate 52 is slightly larger than the outer size of the filler 51 so that the fixing plate 52 is in contact with one side of the ear piece 21 to realize the horizontal fixation of the positioning tool. At the same time, there is a certain distance between the lower end of the fixing plate 52 and the side of the filler 51. The lower end of the fixing plate 52 can prevent the horizontal movement of the hanger 1 to achieve the horizontal positioning of the hanger 1.

[0040] The filler 51 and the fixing plate 52 are fixedly installed on the two ear pieces 21. By fixing the front positioning tool 5 between the ear pieces 21, it is convenient to position the bracket 1 horizontally, vertically and longitudinally using the front positioning tool 5.

[0041] To achieve the fixed installation of the filler 51 and the fixing plate 52 between the ear piece 21, welding, fasteners, or other methods can be used. In this embodiment, to facilitate the disassembly and replacement of the front positioning tool 5, the filler 51 and the fixing plate 52 are installed on the ear piece 21 using fasteners. The fasteners can be rivets, or threaded bolts 7 and nuts 8. When using bolts 7 and nuts 8, washers 9 can also be added. The filler 51 and the fixing plate 52 are provided with through holes 53 extending horizontally, allowing the bolts 7 to pass through. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, bolt 7 passes through through hole 53 and is threadedly connected to nut 8. The head of bolt 7 is located on the side of fixing plate 52 away from filler 51, that is, the head of bolt 7 is located on the outside of ear piece 21. Nut 8, which is threadedly connected to bolt 7, is located on the side of filler 51 away from fixing plate 52, that is, nut 8 is located on the inside of ear piece 21. Washer 9 is sandwiched between nut 8 and filler 51 and is pressed by nut 8 against the inner end face of filler 51 and ear piece 21. The filler 51 is confined between ear pieces 21 by washer 9 and fixing plate, and the threaded connection between bolt 7 and nut 8, through washer 9 and fixing plate 52, presses the filler 51 between ear pieces 21.

[0042] In order to press the gasket 9 against one end face of the ear piece 21, the through hole 53 provided on the filler 51 and the fixing plate 52 is eccentrically positioned, and the through hole 53 is positioned on the side close to one of the ear pieces 21. In this way, the gasket 9 does not need to have a large diameter to fit against the end face of the ear piece 21.

[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, the fixing plate 52 is an integral structure that can be divided into two parts, including an upper fixing plate 52 located above the bottom surface of the filler 51 and a lower fixing plate 52 located below the bottom surface of the filler 51; the thickness of the upper fixing plate 52 is greater than the thickness of the lower fixing plate 52. The outer end faces of the upper fixing plate 52 and the lower fixing plate 52 are flush, thereby forming a groove on the lower inner side of the fixing plate 52, and the top surface of the groove is flat and coplanar with the bottom surface of the filler 51, so that the hanger 1 can be positioned through the two planes of the groove.

[0044] To minimize the added weight, both the filler 51 and the fixing plate 52 are made of aluminum alloy, thus reducing the mass while meeting the structural strength requirements.

[0045] Taking the positioning tool 5 as an example, there is a certain distance between the fixing plate 52 and one side of the ear piece 21. This distance is equal to the distance between the hanging bracket 1 and one side of the ear piece 21 after hanging the machine. The fixing plate 52 can prevent the hanging bracket 1 from moving forward after hanging the machine. Similarly, the fixing plate 52 of the positioning tool 6 can prevent the hanging bracket 1 from moving backward after hanging the machine. After the two are installed together, the horizontal positioning of the hanging bracket 1 can be achieved, and the vertical positioning of the hanging bracket 1 can also be achieved, that is, the purpose of quickly positioning and hanging the machine with the hanging bracket 1 can be achieved.

[0046] Although preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described, those skilled in the art, upon learning the basic inventive concept, can make other changes and modifications to these embodiments. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments as well as all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the present invention.

[0047] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
