Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aircraft maintenance technology, specifically a leveling and positioning hole-making device for an aircraft pitot tube support rod. Background Technology

[0002] The pitot tube, mounted on the nose or wing of an aircraft and pointing directly forward, is a crucial atmospheric data sensor. It utilizes the pitot tube principle to accurately measure total atmospheric pressure and static pressure during flight. The computer then uses formulas such as Bernoulli's total static pressure equation to calculate the flight speed, climb rate, and atmospheric pressure required for flight control. Because the pitot tube is affected by airflow interference during operation, the longer the pitot tube and the greater the distance between the front pressure measuring port and the fuselage, the closer the measured static pressure will be to the true atmospheric static pressure. Therefore, to ensure accuracy and reliability, the pitot tube requires support from a forward-extending pitot tube strut, and its axis must be parallel to the airflow direction.

[0003] When replacing a damaged pitot tube strut during aircraft maintenance, it is necessary to drill a hole in situ at the front end of the newly replaced strut according to the design drawings and with reference to the structure of the damaged strut. This ensures that the central axis of the pitot tube after assembly is parallel to the aircraft's horizontal reference plane, thereby restoring the pitot tube's performance parameters. (See attached diagram) Figures 1 to 3 The diagram shows a support rod 1 for an aircraft pitot tube. It has two sets of assembly holes at the front of the rod body. Each set of assembly holes includes three circular holes 1-1 evenly arranged circumferentially. The two sets of assembly holes are arranged in a staggered manner at a fixed angle. After the support rod 1 is assembled with the aircraft body, the positions of the two sets of assembly holes must meet the set angle requirements. Therefore, in-situ hole making can only be carried out after the assembly process of the support rod 1 and the aircraft is completed. For this reason, it is necessary to design an innovative special device for leveling, positioning and hole making of the aircraft pitot tube support rod that is simple in structure, quick to operate and suitable for on-site assembly. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides a leveling and positioning hole-making device for an aircraft pitot tube support rod. It aims to accurately position and fix the outer sleeve to the front of the support rod through the cooperation of a spring sleeve, a screw plug, a level sleeve and a level instrument, and to make in-situ holes on the support rod by a drill sleeve set on the outer sleeve, so as to realize that the axis of the pitot tube installed on the support rod is parallel to the aircraft's reference horizontal plane, so as to keep the performance parameters of the pitot tube stable and achieve the purpose of ensuring safe flight after aircraft maintenance.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A device for leveling and positioning holes for an aircraft pitot tube support rod includes an outer sleeve, a drill sleeve, a spring sleeve, a screw plug, and a horizontal sleeve. The outer sleeve is a cylindrical sleeve, and the inner wall of the outer sleeve matches the outer wall of the support rod. The support rod can be inserted into the inner cavity of the outer sleeve.

The expansion part can extend backward through the outer annular retaining ring into the inner cavity of the support rod. A screw plug is installed inside the spring sleeve. One end of the screw plug can be screwed into the expansion part of the spring sleeve, squeezing the expansion part of the spring sleeve to expand outward, so that the outer wall of the support rod fits and presses tightly against the inner wall of the outer sleeve. One end of the horizontal sleeve is fitted over the outer sleeve, located at the end where the outer sleeve mates with the spring sleeve. The other end of the horizontal sleeve is cut off in half to form a horizontal reference plane parallel to its central axis.

[0006] In the aforementioned aircraft pitot tube support rod leveling and positioning hole-making device, the expansion part of the spring sleeve is a thin-walled sleeve, the inner wall of the thin-walled sleeve is a conical surface structure, and several expansion grooves are evenly opened on the thin-walled sleeve along the circumference. The expansion grooves extend along the axial direction to form an opening groove that communicates with the outer edge of the expansion part.

[0007] The aforementioned aircraft pitot tube support rod leveling and positioning hole-making device has a connecting plate and a threaded sleeve at the fixing part of the spring sleeve. One side of the connecting plate is connected to the expansion part, and the other side is connected to the threaded sleeve. The inner wall of the threaded sleeve is provided with internal threads.

[0008] The aforementioned aircraft pitot tube support rod leveling and positioning hole-making device includes a screw plug comprising a screwing part, a threaded connection part, and an expansion core; the expansion core is a truncated cone structure that mates with the expansion part of the spring sleeve, and its large-diameter end is connected to the screwing part through the threaded connection part; the threaded connection part is provided with an external thread that matches the internal thread of the threaded sleeve of the spring sleeve; the screwing part is a polygonal prism structure.

[0010] In the aforementioned aircraft pitot tube support rod leveling and positioning hole-making device, the outer sleeve and the horizontal sleeve are circumferentially positioned by a positioning plate. A first positioning groove is provided at one end of the annular retaining ring of the outer sleeve, and a second positioning groove is provided at the assembly end of the horizontal sleeve and the outer sleeve. The first positioning groove is a long groove extending axially along the outer sleeve to communicate with the outer edge of the annular retaining ring of the outer sleeve. The second positioning groove is a long groove extending axially along the horizontal sleeve to communicate with the inner edge of the horizontal sleeve, and the central axis of the second positioning groove is located on the horizontal reference plane of the horizontal sleeve. The positioning plate is inserted into the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove.

[0011] In the above-mentioned aircraft pitot tube support rod leveling and positioning hole-making device, the outer sleeve and the horizontal sleeve are locked and fixed by set screws. A set screw mounting thread hole is provided on the outer cylindrical surface of the horizontal sleeve and the outer sleeve assembly end, and a set screw is installed in the set screw mounting thread hole.

[0015] This invention provides a device for leveling, positioning, and drilling holes on an aircraft pitot tube support rod. It is used for in-situ hole drilling on a new support rod during aircraft maintenance and replacement. One end of the new support rod, to which the hole is to be drilled, is fixedly mounted to the aircraft fuselage, while the other end is free. When drilling holes in the support rod using this invention, firstly, an outer sleeve is fitted onto the free end of the support rod. A spring sleeve and a horizontal sleeve are then fitted onto the outer end of the outer sleeve. The fitting angle of the outer sleeve is adjusted, and a level is used to verify the horizontal reference surface on the horizontal sleeve, ensuring consistency between the position of the drill sleeve on the outer sleeve and the position of the hole to be drilled. Then, the outer sleeve is clamped and fixed in place by a screw plug, spring sleeve, and support rod. The hole drilling operation on the support rod is then completed under the guidance of the drill sleeve fitted onto the outer sleeve. As can be seen, this utility model accurately positions and fixes the outer sleeve to the front of the support rod through the cooperation of the spring sleeve, screw plug, level sleeve and level instrument, and then guides the in-situ drilling on the support rod through the drill sleeve set on the outer sleeve. This achieves the parallelism of the pitot tube axis with the aircraft reference horizontal plane, maintains the stability of the pitot tube performance parameters, and achieves the purpose of ensuring safe flight after aircraft maintenance.
