Detailed Description
Referring to fig. 1-6, the present invention provides an inertia variable-pitch rotor and a control method thereof.
The inertia variable-pitch rotor wing comprises a motor 1, a central hub 2, a forward variable-pitch gear set 3, a reverse variable-pitch gear set 4, a paddle clamp 5, blades 6, a phase sensor 7, a first gear 8, a second gear 9, a third gear 10 and a rotating speed controller.
In the embodiment of the application, the central hub is arranged on the motor, and one end of the variable pitch gear set is arranged on the central hub; the paddle is arranged on the paddle clamp; the paddle clamp is connected with the variable pitch gear set and can rotate along with the variable pitch gear set. The pitch-variable gear set includes: a first gear fixedly connected with the hub and non-rotatable; and the second gear is meshed with the first gear.
In the embodiment of the application, in the process that the motor rotates at a constant speed according to the basic rotating speed required by the lift force, the blades drive the pitch-variable gear set to keep static relative to the central propeller hub under the action of centrifugal force, the blade pitches on two sides are the same, the lift force is consistent, and the lift force direction is parallel to the main shaft.
In the embodiment of the application, when the motor tends to accelerate, the variable pitch gear set and the blades connected with the variable pitch gear set are accelerated and lagged behind the motor under the action of inertia. In the forward pitch-variable gear set, the forward pitch-variable gear set rotates backwards relative to the motor, and because the first gear is meshed with the second gear and fixedly connected with the propeller hub, the second gear rotates under the action of the first gear to drive the pitch to be increased, and the third gear rotates along with the second gear without influencing the pitch variation. In the reverse pitch-variable gear set, the reverse pitch-variable gear set rotates backwards relative to the motor, and because the first gear is meshed with the second gear and is fixedly connected with the propeller hub, the second gear rotates under the action of the first gear to drive the pitch to be reduced, and the third gear rotates along with the second gear without influencing the pitch variation.
In the embodiment of the application, when the motor tends to rotate at a reduced speed, the pitch gear set and the blades connected thereto are decelerated and lagged behind the motor by inertia. In the positive pitch-variable gear set, the positive pitch-variable gear set rotates forwards relative to the motor, and because the first gear is meshed with the second gear and fixedly connected with the propeller hub, the second gear rotates under the action of the first gear to drive the pitch to be reduced, and the third gear rotates along with the second gear without influencing the pitch variation. In the reverse pitch-variable gear set, the reverse pitch-variable gear set rotates forwards relative to the motor, and because the first gear is meshed with the second gear and is fixedly connected with the propeller hub, the second gear rotates under the action of the first gear to drive the pitch to increase, and the third gear rotates along with the second gear without influencing the pitch change.
The phase sensor arranged at the bottom of the motor detects the rotating phase of the paddle in real time and sends an acceleration and deceleration signal to the rotating speed controller. When the lift force needs to be generated to deflect in a specific direction, the rotating phase of the blade takes a lift force deflection moment axis as a bisector, and when the phase sensor detects that the blade connected with the positive pitch-variable gear set is in the first half-circle phase, an acceleration signal is sent to the rotating speed controller, and the motor accelerates to rotate. When the phase sensor detects the phase of the rear half circle of the paddle connected with the forward pitch-variable gear set, a speed reduction signal is sent to the rotating speed controller, and the motor rotates in a speed reduction mode. The motor is subjected to acceleration and deceleration control periodically, so that the pitch is always increased in the phase of the front half circle and decreased in the phase of the rear half circle no matter the blades connected with the forward variable-pitch gear set or the blades connected with the reverse variable-pitch gear set, the lift force is deflected in the preset direction, and the periodic variable-pitch control is realized.
Meanwhile, the acceleration and deceleration amplitude of the motor is based on the basic rotating speed of the motor, and the acceleration and deceleration are completed within one rotation of the motor, so that the average rotating speed of the motor is kept unchanged, and the average rotating speed of the rotor wing is not influenced.
Through the structure and the control mode, the invention can realize the periodic variable pitch control of the paddle only by slightly changing the rotating speed of the motor at a specific phase according to a specific frequency.
The inertia variable-pitch rotor wing can be electrically driven or fuel-powered.
Further, the pitch-variable wave box is essentially used for converting the inertial rotating motion of the blade into the pitch-variable rotating motion of the blade, and the form of the pitch-variable wave box is not limited to gear transmission as long as the same effect is achieved.
Furthermore, the inertia variable-pitch rotor blade can be two blades or even blades larger than the two blades, and the blades are symmetrically arranged in pairs.
Furthermore, the inertia variable-pitch rotor wing can be used independently or in combination.
As shown in fig. 1, 2, and 3, the main components of the structure include: the system comprises a motor, a central propeller hub, a forward variable-pitch gear set, a reverse variable-pitch gear set, a propeller clamp, a propeller blade and a phase sensor.
As shown in fig. 4, the first gear of the forward and reverse pitch gear sets is in the opposite position and is fixed and non-rotatable with the hub; the third gear is opposite in position and can rotate freely, so that the lifting capacity balancing function is realized; the second gear is fixed with the paddle clamp and meshed with the first gear and the third gear. It is understood that when the paddle swings, the second gear rotates under the action of the first gear, the paddle clamp is driven to rotate to achieve the pitch changing effect, and the third gear does not influence the pitch changing movement.
As shown in fig. 5, when the motor tends to accelerate, the pitch gear set and the blades connected thereto are accelerated by inertia to lag behind the motor. In the forward pitch-variable gear set, the forward pitch-variable gear set rotates backwards relative to the motor, and because the first gear is meshed with the second gear and fixedly connected with the propeller hub, the second gear rotates under the action of the first gear to drive the pitch to be increased, and the third gear rotates along with the second gear without influencing the pitch variation. In the reverse pitch gear set, the reverse pitch gear set rotates backwards relative to the motor, and since the first gear is meshed with the second gear and the first gear is fixedly connected with the hub, the second gear rotates under the action of the first gear, and the driving pitch is reduced.
As shown in fig. 6, when the motor tends to rotate at a reduced speed, the pitch gearset and the blades attached thereto slow down behind the motor under the influence of inertia. In the positive pitch-variable gear set, the positive pitch-variable gear set rotates forwards relative to the motor, and because the first gear is meshed with the second gear and fixedly connected with the propeller hub, the second gear rotates under the action of the first gear to drive the pitch to be reduced, and the third gear rotates along with the second gear without influencing the pitch variation. In the reverse pitch gear set, the reverse pitch gear set rotates forwards relative to the motor, and as the first gear is meshed with the second gear and the first gear is fixedly connected with the propeller hub, the second gear rotates under the action of the first gear, and the pitch of the driving propeller is increased.
The phase sensor arranged at the bottom of the motor detects the rotating phase of the paddle in real time and sends an acceleration and deceleration signal to the rotating speed controller. When the lift force needs to be generated to deflect in a specific direction, the rotating phase of the blade takes a lift force deflection moment axis as a bisector, and when the phase sensor detects that the blade connected with the positive pitch-variable gear set is in the first half-circle phase, an acceleration signal is sent to the rotating speed controller, and the motor accelerates to rotate. When the phase sensor detects the phase of the rear half circle of the paddle connected with the forward pitch-variable gear set, a speed reduction signal is sent to the rotating speed controller, and the motor rotates in a speed reduction mode. Therefore, the motor is periodically subjected to acceleration and deceleration control, no matter the blades connected with the forward variable-pitch gear set or the blades connected with the reverse variable-pitch gear set, the blade pitch is always increased in the phase of the front half circle, and the blade pitch is reduced in the phase of the rear half circle, so that the lift force deflects according to the preset value, and the periodic variable-pitch control is realized.
Meanwhile, the acceleration and deceleration amplitude of the motor is based on the basic rotating speed of the motor, and the acceleration and deceleration are completed within one rotation of the motor, so that the average rotating speed of the motor is kept unchanged, and the average rotating speed of the rotor wing is not influenced.
The inertia variable-pitch rotor wing is simple and reliable in structure and low in manufacturing cost, is a simple and effective method for realizing periodic variable-pitch control, can simply and conveniently realize the periodic variable-pitch control through the inertia variable-pitch rotor wing structure and the control method, greatly reduces the difficulty of the periodic variable-pitch technology, reduces the difficulty of using and maintaining a helicopter, and is beneficial to popularization and application of the helicopter.
