Aircraft Components TRIZ Cases
- Rolling Airbag Ejection Mechanism for Non-Circular Launch Tubes
Gas-driven rolling convolutions eject items without pistons or seals, cutting drag and enabling reliable release from non-circular tubes.
- UAV Winch Brake Mechanism for Power-Free Spool Holding
A lockable winch brake holds the delivery spool without continuous motor power, reducing battery drain while enabling controlled parcel lowering.
- Retractable Seaplane Radar Assembly for Water Damage Protection
A retractable lift-mounted radar lets seaplanes stow the unit inside the airframe, avoiding seawater damage while preserving target detection.
- Aircraft GPS Anomaly Mapping Using ADS-B Position Data
ADS-B data from nearby aircraft is used to detect GPS jamming or spoofing in real time and map compromised locations for route changes.
- Autonomous Towed Aircraft Fleet for Cargo Capacity and Fuel Efficiency
Multiple autonomous towed aircraft increase cargo capacity while adjustable towing and autopilot control cut fuel use and structural load.
- Aircraft Hose Reel Spring Mechanism for Stable Mid-Air Refueling
A constant-force spring hose reel expands the refueling envelope, takes up slack, and reduces hose whipping without hydraulic or electrical drive.
- Detachable UAV Payload Assembly for Fast Battery and Tank Swaps
A combined battery and spray tank with guided latching cuts UAV servicing to under a minute while reducing heavy manual handling.
- Rotor-Model Airspeed Determination Without Pitot Tube Dependence
Rotor operating parameters are used to infer airspeed, avoiding pitot tube icing errors while adding redundant measurement for safer flight.
- Solid-State Airspeed Sensing Using Charged Particle Transit Time
Charged particles pulsed between exposed electrodes estimate vehicle speed without fragile mechanical probes, improving reliability in icing and strike conditions.
- Lateral Payload Mounting for Paramotor Balance and Pilot Mobility
Lateral airframe-mounted payload arms shift weight off the pilot, preserving balance, mobility, and forward visibility during launch and flight.
- Predictive Image Navigation Aiding Against GPS Spoofing
Pre-generated geo-sequenced images help pilots and control systems navigate when GPS and FMV are spoofed, jammed, or unreliable.
- Nonuniform Laser Beam Scanning for Flight Path Debris Clearing
Adaptive laser scanning varies beam power and path to clear insects and other debris from aircraft flight paths while preserving aerodynamics and sensor accuracy.
- Wind-Compensated Directional Crop Spraying for Precise Deposition
Photometric targeting and real-time wind sensing adjust nozzle aim, flow, and droplet size to cut spray drift and improve patch-level deposition.
- Hybrid Adhesive Sandwich Structures for Low-Temperature Aerospace Curing
A hybrid epoxy-phthalonitrile adhesive enables sandwich panels to cure below 350°F while improving thermo-oxidative stability for aerospace use.
- Solid-State Airspeed Sensing Using Charged Particle Time-of-Flight
Charged particles in ambient airflow are timed between emitter and collector electrodes to estimate vehicle speed with less icing and turbulence risk.
- Predictive Navigation Images for GPS-Denied Inertial Aiding
Offline-generated geo-sequenced images help pilots and control systems navigate through spoofing, jamming, and changing terrain.
- Hybrid Adhesive Sandwich Structures With Low-Temperature Cure
A hybrid epoxy-phthalonitrile adhesive improves thermo-oxidative stability in sandwich panels while curing below 350 °F in under 3 hours.
