Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to a transversely-folded propeller which can be widely applied to the fields of helicopters, gyroplanes, foldable unmanned planes, hovercars and the like which need to reduce the space occupied by the propeller.
Background
The aerospace industry is rapidly developing, and various new aircrafts such as flying automobiles, multi-rotor unmanned planes and the like emerge endlessly. To the aircraft that leans on the screw to provide lift, for example most hovercar, helicopter, many rotor unmanned aerial vehicle etc. often because the screw of its major diameter is in when idle, need occupy very big space, lead to space utilization low. Or the diameter of the propeller is forced to be reduced in pursuit of higher space utilization rate, so that the power of the aircraft is insufficient, the oil consumption rate of the aircraft is improved, and the service life of an engine is shortened.
For aircraft that provide thrust or drag by propellers, such as piston engines, turbine engines, and fixed wing aircraft driven by turboshaft engines, thrust tends to be proportional to the square of the diameter of the propeller, so large diameter propellers have greater thrust. However, considering the taking off and landing of the airplane, the increase of the diameter of the propeller is limited by the height of the airplane, so that the economy of the airplane can be greatly improved if the folded propeller can be used and unfolded at a proper time.
Currently, there are two types of existing folding propellers on the market: one is a longitudinal folding propeller, namely the propeller is folded towards the direction of a rotating shaft, so that the axial length is lengthened, and the space utilization rate is not substantially improved; the second is a folding fan type horizontal folding propeller, which is commonly found on military helicopters, but the length of the folding front and rear propellers is not changed, and thus the folding propeller cannot be applied to the problems mentioned above.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to overcome the problems in the prior art, the invention provides the transversely folded propeller, which can greatly reduce the storage length of a rotor wing.
A transversely-folded propeller sequentially comprises a base connected with a rotating shaft, an inner paddle positioned in the middle of a paddle, an outer paddle positioned on the outermost side and a connecting piece used for connecting the three parts; or comprises a base connected with the rotating shaft, an outer paddle and a connecting piece used for connecting the two parts; wherein, one end of the base, two ends of the inner paddle and one end of the outer paddle are respectively provided with three-page type connecting parts, the same position of each page is provided with a through hole, and the two three-page type connecting parts and a connecting piece are matched to form two hinge mechanisms.
The connecting piece is shaped like two crosses connected in series, and a through hole is respectively arranged at the left side and the right side of a cross in the middle of each cross.
The number of the inner paddles is one or more.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:
the base has the commonality, does not change traditional pivot screw connected mode, one end is equipped with three page formula connecting portions for carry out the supporting with the connecting piece.
The main part of the inner paddle is a common paddle, but three-leaf connecting parts are added at two ends of the paddle and are used for being connected with the base or the outer paddle in a matching way; in addition, the propeller can be matched with the inner propeller continuously, and the effective length of the propeller is prolonged.
The outer paddle is characterized in that the trunk part of the outer paddle is a common paddle, but a special mechanism three-leaf connecting part is additionally arranged at one end of the outer paddle and is used for being connected with the base or the inner paddle in a matching way, and the outer paddle can also be directly connected with the base and works under the condition that the folding efficiency is 50%.
The connecting piece is a mechanism specially designed for the folding paddle, can be connected with the base, the inner paddle, the outer paddle and the like, and has proper length to ensure that parts of each part can be kept parallel in a folded state without leaving too large gaps; at the same time, the components should be sufficiently small so as not to significantly affect the aerodynamic properties.
The transversely folded propeller has the advantages of small storage volume, simple structure, high effective wing area occupation ratio, high retraction and expansion speed and no need of manual intervention for expansion. The length of the effective paddle can be increased on the premise of not changing the storage space of the aircraft, or the space occupied by the aircraft storage can be reduced under the condition of keeping the length of the paddle unchanged.
