Currently, some airplanes use touch screens to replace traditional physical keys on the cockpit. Based on the development of new technology and the urgent need of continuously improving the competitiveness of the airplane, research and development personnel classify physical control keys on a cockpit top plate and integrate the physical control keys on a touch screen. Considering that the space of the cockpit of the airplane is limited, the unreasonable setting position of the touch screen causes inconvenience for the operation of a driver, and further causes the safety problem of flight.
For example, in some aircraft, the touch screen is disposed in the top panel area of the cockpit, and there may be three touch screens, which are independent of each other, and may interact with each other. However, this arrangement has poor visibility, and it is difficult for the driver to read the relevant information in time when the control device of the roof panel gives an alarm. When the airplane needs to be controlled by a single unit in an extreme situation, the single unit can increase the workload of the unit when the airplane is controlled and the top alarm information is processed simultaneously, and the safety of airplane driving is reduced.
As another example, in some other aircraft, a portable tablet computer may be installed in the cockpit. For the installation of a portable tablet computer, one approach is to mount a detachable bracket on the sill of the cockpit. The second method is to mount a bracket on the steering wheel and fix the touch tablet computer. However, the two modes can only read information on the portable tablet computer by the explosive unit, and have the problems of limited circuit and communication interface, so that the operation of the unit on the read information of the portable touch tablet computer is difficult to realize, and further, the touch operation of the touch tablet and the flight driving interactive operation of the airplane cockpit are realized.
In order to solve the above problem, embodiments of the present application provide a steering wheel of an aircraft and an aircraft, which will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a first structural schematic diagram of an aircraft according to an embodiment of the present invention. The embodiment of the application provides an aircraft 1, and the aircraft 1 may include a cockpit 10 and a steering wheel 20, where the cockpit 10 has an accommodating space 11, and the steering wheel 20 is disposed in the accommodating space 11. By way of example, the aircraft 1 may comprise a cockpit 10 and a passenger cabin, or the aircraft 1 may comprise a cockpit 10 and a cargo compartment, or the aircraft 1 may also comprise only a cockpit 10. The cockpit 10 is used to accommodate a pilot, and the pilot can perform flight control of the aircraft 1 within the cockpit 10 so that the aircraft 1 can travel from a departure point to a destination. The steering wheel 20 may be used by a pilot to control the operation of the aircraft 1. For example, the pilot may control the flight direction of the aircraft 1 by controlling the steering wheel 20. Since the steering wheel 20 is located closer to the pilot, the pilot can easily operate the steering wheel 20 to control the flying state of the aircraft 1. Therefore, the touch screen is disposed on the steering wheel 20 in the embodiment of the present application, so that the pilot can view and control part of the functional components of the aircraft 1 while operating the flight state of the aircraft 1. Compared with the scheme that the touch screen is arranged on the top plate of the cockpit 10, the touch screen is arranged on the steering wheel 20 in the embodiment of the application, so that the operation of the pilot is more convenient, and meanwhile, the safety of the pilot for operating the airplane 1 is improved.
In order to more clearly explain the structure of the steering wheel 20 according to the embodiment of the present application, the steering wheel 20 will be explained below with reference to the drawings.
Illustratively, referring to fig. 2 in conjunction with fig. 1, fig. 2 is a schematic view of a first angle of a first configuration of a steering wheel in the aircraft shown in fig. 1. The embodiment of the application provides a steering wheel 20 of an airplane, and the steering wheel 20 may include a wheel body 21 and a first touch screen 23. The tray 21 is disposed in the cockpit 10 of the aircraft 1. The first touch screen 23 is mounted on the tray body 21, and the first touch screen 23 can display information and receive touch operation of a user. By arranging the first touch screen 23 on the disc body 21 of the steering wheel 20 of the aircraft 1, the display information on the first touch screen 23 can be read or the first touch screen 23 can be touched while the pilot operates, so that the convenience of interaction between the pilot and the first touch screen 23 is improved, and the safety of the pilot in flying the aircraft 1 is improved.
The tray 21 may be mounted to the cockpit 10, for example, the tray 21 may be rotatably mounted in the cockpit 10, and a pilot may control the flight direction of the aircraft 1 by rotating the tray 21. For another example, the tray 21 may be fixedly connected to the cockpit 10, and a plurality of control buttons may be disposed on other portions of the cockpit 20, so as to control the flight status of the aircraft 1 by operating the control buttons on the cockpit 20.
Illustratively, the steering wheel 20 may further include a first grip 27 and a second grip 29, the first grip 27 and the second grip 29 being disposed on opposite sides of the tray body 21. The first grip 27 and the second grip 29 are used to provide a hand-operable base for a user to facilitate the user's manipulation of the steering wheel 20. For example, one end of the first holding rod 27 may be a free end, and the other end of the first holding rod 27 may be fixedly connected to the tray body 21, and the first holding rod 27 and the tray body 21 may be integrally formed during manufacturing. The first holding rod 27 may be in the shape of a circular arc recessed away from the tray body 21, and the curvature of the circular arc of the first holding rod 27 may be designed to match the size of the tray body 21, which is not limited herein. The first holding rod 27 and the disc body 21 have a special-shaped space between them. Since the width of the first holding rod 27 is different from the width of the tray body 21, the first holding rod 27 is arranged at one end of the tray body 21 in the width direction, so that the appearance of the steering wheel 20 can be more neat, and the aesthetic property of the steering wheel 20 can be improved. The first holding rod 27 is in transition connection with the tray body 21, thereby forming a special-shaped space between the first holding rod 27 and the tray body 21. The second holding rod 29 may be symmetrically disposed on the left and right sides of the tray body 21 with the first holding rod 27, for example, the first holding rod 27 is disposed on the left side of the tray body 21, the second holding rod 29 is disposed on the right side of the tray body 21, and the two holding rods may be disposed to correspond to the left and right hands of the user respectively for operating the same. The structure of the second grip 29 can refer to the description of the first grip 27, and will not be described herein.
For example, please refer to fig. 3 in combination with fig. 1 and fig. 2, and fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a second angle of the steering wheel shown in fig. 2. The tray body 21 is provided with a mounting hole 212, and the first touch screen 23 is mounted in the mounting hole 212. It can be understood that the shape of the mounting hole 212 is adapted to the first touch screen 23, for example, please refer to fig. 4 and 5 in combination with fig. 2, and fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of a first angle of a second structure of the steering wheel in the aircraft shown in fig. 1; fig. 5 is a structural view of the steering wheel shown in fig. 4 at a second angle. The first touch screen 23 may be square, rectangular, circular or irregular, for example, the first touch screen 23 shown in fig. 2 is rectangular, and the first touch screen 23 shown in fig. 4 and 5 is in a structure of a rectangle plus a semicircle. The shape of the first touch screen 23 may be designed as required. Correspondingly, the shape of the mounting hole 212 may also be square, rectangular, circular or irregular. Where the mounting hole 212 may be located at an end of the tray 21 remote from the driver, it will be appreciated that the tray 21 is arranged with one end near the driver and the other end opposite the one end, i.e. the other end remote from the driver. For example, the mounting hole 212 may be disposed at a middle position of the end of the tray body 21 away from the driver to improve the aesthetic appearance of the steering wheel 20.
It should be noted that there are various ways to mount the first touch screen 23 on the mounting hole 212, and the hole wall shape of the mounting hole 212 is different in each case, and the first touch screen 23 can be set as required, so that the first touch screen 23 can be stably mounted. For example, the hole wall of the mounting hole 212 may be stepped, and the edge of the first touch screen 23 contacts with the stepped structure to prevent the first touch screen 23 from falling.
For example, please refer to fig. 6 in combination with fig. 1 to 3, and fig. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of a third angle of the steering wheel shown in fig. 2. The steering wheel 20 may further include a cover 25, and the cover 25 may be mounted to the wheel 21 and cover the back surface of the first touch screen 23. The cover 25 and the tray body 21 may be connected by screws, for example, threaded holes are provided at corresponding positions of the tray body 21 and the cover 25, and the cover and the tray body 21 are connected by screws inserted into the threaded holes. Of course, the cover 25 may be connected to the tray 21 in other ways, which are not illustrated here. It is understood that the first touch screen 23 may have a display surface and a non-display surface opposite to the display surface, the non-display surface may be provided with components such as a wire and a control board of the first touch screen 23, and when the first touch screen 23 with the wire and the control board is disposed on the tray 21, in order to improve the aesthetic property of the tray 21, a cover 25 may be disposed to cover the back surface of the first touch screen 23, so as to hide the components such as the wire and the control board of the first touch screen 23.
The tray body 21 may further include a plurality of through holes 214, and each of the through holes 214 is spaced apart from the mounting hole 212. A plurality of vias 214 may be used for routing the first touch screen 23 and the tray 21. For example, the tray body 21 may be a hollow structure to reduce the weight of the tray body 21, and at the same time, the tray body 21 may accommodate a part of the components, for example, the tray body 21 may accommodate a wire or a control board of the first touch screen 23. The through holes 214 may be disposed on a side of the tray body 21 away from the display surface of the first touch screen 23, and the through holes 214 may all communicate with the hollow structure. That is, the plurality of through holes 214 are not found in an area that can be observed by a user, so as to enhance the aesthetic appearance of the steering wheel 20. For example, one of the through holes 214 may be a first size, and the through hole 214 may be provided with a wire having a larger diameter. In addition, a plurality of small holes can be arranged on the wall of the through hole 214 with the first size, and the small holes can fix part of wires with smaller diameters. Two vias 214 of the plurality of vias 214 may each be a second size, the second size being smaller than the first size, and the second size of vias 214 may be disposed around the first size of vias 214 to facilitate routing. The through holes 214 may be disposed in a middle area of the tray 21 corresponding to the first touch screen 23, so as to facilitate positioning of the through holes 214 during manufacturing. There may be other ways to provide the plurality of through holes 214, and the above description is only illustrative and should not be construed as limiting the plurality of through holes 214.
There are many situations in the installation position of the steering wheel 20 with the first touch screen 23. For example, please refer to fig. 7 in combination with fig. 1 to 6, and fig. 7 is a schematic structural diagram of an aircraft according to an embodiment of the present invention. A main cockpit 13 and a secondary cockpit 15 may be provided in the accommodation space 11 of the cockpit 10. For example, the primary pilot 13 is used by a primary pilot, and the secondary pilot 15 is used by a secondary pilot, the primary pilot being a pilot that is primarily responsible for the operation of the aircraft 1, and the secondary pilot assists the primary pilot in controlling the operation of the aircraft 1 to maintain stable operation of the aircraft 1.
In the first case, the aircraft 1 has only one first touch screen 23. This can be understood as: the steering wheel 20 with the first touch screen 23 is disposed in the main driving seat 13 or the sub-driving seat 15. Illustratively, one steering wheel 20 is provided at the main driving seat 13. Considering that the aircraft 1 is controlled mainly by the primary driver, the steering wheel 20 with the first touch screen 23 may be provided only on the primary driver's seat 13. However, in this case, when the first touch screen 23 fails, if no other standby touch screen or standby physical key is provided, some functional components of the aircraft 1 will malfunction, which is not favorable for the safety of the aircraft 1 in flight.
In the second case, the aircraft 1 has two first touch screens 23. It can be understood that the two first touch screens 23 can be independent of each other and can interact with each other, for example, when a touch operation is performed on one first touch screen 23, the other first touch screen 23 displays synchronously, and at this time, the other first touch screen 23 can also be operated. Two first touch screens 23 can be interacted with each other, or one first touch screen 23 is used as a standby touch screen, and when one first touch screen 23 is in failure, the other first touch screen 23 is started to operate, so that part of functional components cannot operate and malfunction. For example, one steering wheel 20 with a first touch screen 23 may be disposed at the primary pilot position 13, another steering wheel 20 with a first touch screen 23 may be disposed at the secondary pilot position 15, the two first touch screens 23 are backup to each other, or the two first touch screens 23 cooperate to control stable operation of the aircraft 1.
Illustratively, the aircraft 1 may also include a processor 30. When the processor 30 detects that the first touch screen 23 of the primary driver seat 13 is faulty, the processor 30 may control the first touch screen 23 of the secondary driver seat 15 to display and accept touch operations. In actual operation, the two first touch screens 23 can simultaneously display the same information and can both accept touch operations of a user, and a cooperative control logic can be designed for the processor 30 to control the display and touch operations of the two first touch screens 23. The above merely illustrates one way of processing by the processor 30.
It is understood that, in summary of the first case, the steering wheel 20 with the two first touch screens 23 can be disposed in the main driving seat 13 and the auxiliary driving seat 15 respectively. In actual operation, the main driver seat 13 and the auxiliary driver seat 15 are both provided with a driver panel, but the user can select which driver panel the first touch screen 23 is provided on as required. For example, the first touch screen 23 may be disposed only in the main driving seat 13. For another example, the first touch screen 23 is provided only in the passenger compartment 15. For example, one of the two first touch screens 23 is disposed at the main cab 13, and the other is disposed at the sub-cab 15.
In the third case, two touch screens capable of displaying the same information may be disposed on the aircraft 1. The two touch screens can be interacted, or one touch screen is used as a standby touch screen, and when one touch screen is in fault, the other touch screen is started to operate, so that the failure of part of functional components due to the incapability of operation is prevented. Illustratively, a steering wheel 20 with a first touch screen 23 is disposed at the main driving seat 13, and the first touch screen 23 may be a touch screen for performing a main operation. The cockpit 10 may further have a second touch screen 17 disposed therein, and the second touch screen 17 may display the same information as the first touch screen 23 and may receive a touch operation of a user. Illustratively, the cockpit 10 may include a roof panel 19, and the second touch screen 17 may be mounted to the roof panel 19. For example, the second touch screen 17 may be disposed at a position corresponding to the middle of the main driving seat 13 and the assistant driving seat 15 of the top board 19, so that the driver of the main driving seat 13 can operate the second touch screen 17 conveniently, and the driver of the assistant driving seat 15 can operate the second touch screen 17 conveniently, thereby improving the portability of the operation.
It can be understood that the second touch screen 17 can be used as a standby touch screen of the first touch screen 23, and the second touch screen 17 can also cooperate with the first touch screen 23 to realize the operation control of the stable operation of the aircraft 1. Illustratively, when the processor 30 detects that the first touch screen 23 is faulty, the processor 30 controls the second touch screen 17 to display and accept touch operations of the user. Of course, a failure maintenance system may also be provided for the first touch screen 23, for example, when the second touch screen 17 fails, the processor 30 controls the failure maintenance system to enhance risk troubleshooting on the first touch screen 23, so as to prevent the first touch screen 23 from failing again. The above is merely an example of the processing scheme when the touch screen fails, and it should not be understood that the processor 30 can only perform the above operations.
It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application do not show diagrams corresponding to the three cases. The three cases described above can be set for the installation position of the touch panel with reference to the structure of the cockpit 10 shown in fig. 7.
In a fourth case, the aircraft 1 may have three touch screens, the three touch screens may be independent from each other and may interact with each other, when one of the touch screens is touched, the remaining two touch screens may display synchronously, and the remaining two touch screens may also perform touch operations. Illustratively, one of the touch screens may be a primary touch screen, the other two touch screens may be standby touch screens of the primary touch screen, and the three touch screens work together to maintain stable operation of the aircraft 1. For example, referring to the schematic structure shown in fig. 7, one steering wheel 20 with a first touch screen 23 may be disposed at the primary cab 13, another steering wheel 20 with a first touch screen 23 may be disposed at the secondary cab 15, and a second touch screen 17 may be disposed at the cab 10, for example, the second touch screen 17 is disposed at the top plate 19 of the cab 10 and located at a position between the two first touch screens 23. The operating systems of the three touch screens can be set to be the same, and the difference is that the setting positions are different, and the assembly structures matched with the positions are different.
In actual operation, when the processor 20 detects that the first touch screen 23 of the primary driver seat 13 is failed, the processor 30 may control the first touch screen 23 of the secondary driver seat 15 to be enabled, or the processor 30 may control the second touch screen 17 to be enabled. When the processor 20 detects that both first touch screens 23 are malfunctioning, the processor 30 may control the second touch screen 17 to be enabled to prevent a risk to the operation of the aircraft 1 due to the malfunction of the operation. It should be noted that the control logic of the processor 30 can be set as required, and the above description is only for example and should not be construed as limiting the control logic of the processor 30.
The first touch screen 23 is disposed on the tray body 21 of the steering wheel 20, and the size of the first touch screen can be designed to adapt to the size of the tray body 21. For example, considering the size of the tray 21, the size of the first touch screen 23 may be 7.2 inches.
The first touch screen 23 may be integrated with functional devices corresponding to partial functions of the aircraft 1. For example, please refer to fig. 8 in combination with fig. 1 to 7, and fig. 8 is a schematic view of a display structure of a first touch screen in the steering wheel shown in any one of fig. 1 to 7. The aircraft 1 may also include functional components (not shown) electrically connected to the first touch screen 23, which may include fuel, power, environmental control, hydraulics, and external lighting. By environmental control is understood an environmental control system in the cockpit 10, for example, the temperature in the cockpit 10 may be adjusted by the environmental control system. Hydraulic pressure is understood to mean the manner in which parts of the aircraft 1 are driven. External lighting may be understood as lighting lamps outside the aircraft 1. Certainly, the functional components may further include devices for implementing other functions, in the embodiment of the present application, the functional components include fuel, a power supply, an environmental control device, a hydraulic pressure device, and an external lighting device, and these functional components are not the main functions of the aircraft 1, and do not affect the safety of the aircraft 1, and are commonly used, so that the devices with the above five functions are selected to be connected. Of course, with the development of technology and the improvement of the interior of the aircraft 1, there may be other functional components electrically connected to the first touch screen 23, which is not limited herein. The first touch screen 23 can be electrically connected with the functional component, and the first touch screen 23 can display preset information corresponding to fuel oil, a power supply, environment control, hydraulic pressure and external illumination, and can accept touch operation of a user. For example, there may be five touch keys corresponding to fuel, power, environment control, hydraulic and external lighting on the display interface of the first touch screen 23, as shown in fig. 8, in the touch key area 40, there are a fuel key 41, a power key 42, an environment control key 43, a hydraulic key 44 and an external lighting key 45. The five touch keys may be located at the bottom of the first touch screen 23. When the fuel button 41 corresponding to the fuel is touched, the remaining portion of the first touch screen 23 may display preset information of the fuel, for example, a remaining amount of the fuel. Similarly, when the touch key corresponding to the other functions is touched, the first touch screen 23 displays preset information of the corresponding function, and the user can perform touch operation on the button corresponding to the preset information.
For the display and touch operation of the second touch screen 17, reference may be made to the above description of the first touch screen 23, where the second touch screen 17 is different from the first touch screen 23 in the setting position, and since the second touch screen 17 is disposed on the top plate 19 of the cockpit 10, the size of the second touch screen 17 is not limited too much, and therefore, the size of the second touch screen 17 may be larger than that of the first touch screen 23, so as to be convenient for the user to view.
In the steering wheel 20 of the aircraft and the aircraft 1 provided in the embodiment of the application, the steering wheel 20 may include a wheel body 21 and a first touch screen 23. The tray 21 is disposed in the cockpit 10 of the aircraft 1. The first touch screen 23 is mounted on the tray body 21, and the first touch screen 23 can display information and receive touch operation of a user. By arranging the first touch screen 23 on the disc body 21 of the steering wheel 20 of the aircraft 1, the display information on the first touch screen 23 can be read or the first touch screen 23 can be touched while the pilot operates, so that the convenience of interaction between the pilot and the first touch screen 23 is improved, and the safety of the pilot in flying the aircraft 1 is improved.
