Aircraft Components TRIZ Cases
- Aircraft Visual Display System Using Existing Cameras
Processor retrieves image streams from installed aircraft cameras to launch viewing applications, avoiding extra weight and cost.
- Gas Turbine Tie Shaft Flow Forming and Thread Rolling
Flow forming and thread rolling reduce machining needs for gas turbine tie shafts.
- Temperature-Dependent Reflectivity Coating for Hydrogen Tank Refueling
Remote interrogation of thermochromic coatings replaces fixed pressure ramps with dynamic flow control, reducing refueling time and energy consumption.
- Refueling Boom Optical Positioning System
Light emitting devices on the refueling boom project visible beams onto the receiver aircraft receptacle to provide precise visual alignment cues.
- Searchlight Beam Control for Constant Ground Speed
A searchlight controller adjusts elevation and azimuth angles to maintain a constant ground speed for the illumination spot.
- Powered Telescoping Knife Handle with Blank Cartridge Propulsion
A powered telescoping knife handle extends inner tubular members using a blank cartridge firing mechanism.
- Aerial Vehicle Discharge Apparatus External Container Mounting
External aerosol container mounting on aerial vehicle airframes via connecting tubes to discharge nozzles.
- Aerial Firefighting Nozzle with Hydrostatic Pressure Control
Segmented nozzle matrix uses hydrostatic pressure to target fire fronts, preventing waste on non-combusting areas.
- Aerostat Midair UAV Deployment Trigger Mechanism
Anti-weight aerostatic lift raises payloads while a spring hook enables midair separation, preserving UAV battery capacity for extended range.
- Virtual Magnifier for Aircraft Chart Readability
A virtual magnifying glass tool overlays a magnified chart region on the main display to enhance element visibility without losing overall context.
- Intrinsically Safe Drone EMAT Wall Thickness Measurement
An intrinsically safe drone uses an electromagnetic acoustic transducer to measure wall thickness without physical contact.
- Rotatable Control Units for Drogue Refueling Stability
Rotatable control units adjust fin orientations via sensor feedback to counteract turbulence and tanker wake effects during aerial refueling.
- 3D Antenna Array for Vertical Radiowave Direction Estimation
Multi-surface antennas detect radiowave intensity to estimate arrival direction, resolving the inability of planar arrays to determine vertical angles.
- Machine Tool Single Rail Transverse Arm Articulated Unit
An articulated motorized unit on a single longitudinal rail adapts to double-curvature surfaces, resolving the complexity of dual-rail systems.
- Reconfigurable Drone Modules for Stable Cargo Transport
Segmented propelling parts generate independent thrust vectors to move the assembly horizontally, preventing cargo inclination during directional changes.
- Flying Platform Traffic Warning System for Emergency Lane Clearance
An aerial traffic system uses image recognition to detect vehicles in emergency lanes and issues real-time warnings, clearing paths for special vehicles.
- Drone Payload Release Button with Sloping Aperture Edges
Sloping aperture edges guide a button to automatically eject a tag, ensuring safe package delivery without damage.
- Unmanned Delivery Aircraft Location Authorization System
An unmanned delivery aircraft receives authorization and precise location data from a portable user interface unit to execute autonomous package delivery.
- Aircraft Cockpit Display Chain Monitoring via CRC Comparison
Electronic monitoring device duplicates graphic commands to generate cyclic redundancy codes for display chain verification.
- Magnetometer Calibration via Theoretical Field Comparison
A magnetometer calibration method compares actual readings against theoretical magnetic field properties to determine gain and offset values.
