Description
Technical Field
The patent relates to an aircraft design technology, in particular to an aircraft landing gear position indicating mechanism and an indicating method.
Background
The landing gear is a take-off and landing device of the airplane, and has the functions of ensuring take-off running and landing sliding of the airplane and absorbing impact and jumping energy generated during landing and ground movement. When an airplane takes off and lands or flies, a pilot needs to timely and accurately acquire the position information of the undercarriage. The position indicating mechanism of the aircraft landing gear triggers the indicating mechanism to act to send out an in-place signal after the rotating angular displacement of the landing gear reaches a set value, and is suitable for indicating the position of the aircraft landing gear and indicating the in-place position of other angular displacements.
The aircraft landing gear position indicating mechanism is arranged in a landing gear cabin and extends to an outer skin of an aircraft, and a pilot observes whether an indicating rod extends out of the skin at a side window of the aircraft to judge whether the landing gear is put down in place. When the airplane is in a flying state, the landing gear indicator rod retracts into the airplane skin; when the aircraft lands, after the pilot carries out the operation of putting the landing gear in place, if the normal indication system of the aircraft landing gear fails, the pilot can carry out normal landing at the moment if the indication rod extends out of the skin of the aircraft to indicate that the landing gear is put down in place; if the indication rod does not extend out of the skin of the airplane, indicating that the landing gear is not put down in place, emergency measures should be taken for landing.
In general, a micro-electric door is arranged at the landing gear lowering position, when the landing gear is lowered in place, the electric door is connected, a landing gear lowering indicator lamp positioned in a cockpit is lighted, and a pilot receives the landing gear lowering in-place information. When the aircraft loses power supply or the micro-switch is in failure, the pilot can not judge whether the undercarriage is put down, and can only land according to the command of the airport tower at the moment, however, the tower can not judge whether the undercarriage is in place at the put-down position, and the undercarriage is pressed and retracted during the landing process possibly caused by the landing at the moment, so that flight accidents are caused. Therefore, a set of standby undercarriage down position mechanical indicating mechanism needs to be designed, and it is guaranteed that a pilot can effectively judge whether the undercarriage is down to the position or not by observing an indicating rod arranged on an outer skin of the airplane under the emergency condition.
