Description

Variable camber airfoil structure with deformation feedback
Technical Field
The invention relates to a camber-changing wing structure with deformation feedback, and belongs to the technical field of aviation products.
Background
The aircraft wing camber technology can adjust the wing camber in real time to improve the flight efficiency so as to adapt to complex and changeable task environments, and is considered to be one of the future aviation technology research directions. The existing bending design at home and abroad mainly adopts novel functional materials such as a compliant mechanism, piezoelectric ceramics, memory alloy and the like and a driving mechanism to realize the function of changing the bending of the wing. However, the above-mentioned technology still has many problems in practical application, such as insufficient maturing technology of compliant mechanism, small driving force provided by piezoelectric ceramics, low deformation efficiency of memory alloy due to structural heat dissipation problem, etc. Rigid mechanisms are currently the first choice to achieve a wing camber design from a technical maturity and reliability perspective.
The existing camber-changing wing generally lacks of real-time shape deformation detection and feedback, only a camber-changing driving structure is designed, and the system is an open-loop control system. The design considers that the deformation effect of the wing steering engine is unchanged after the wing steering engine is subjected to pneumatic load, and the actual situation is quite different, so that the wing steering engine cannot accurately adjust the wing camber according to the flight state and the flight condition. Therefore, in order to ensure higher precision and reduce the influence of external disturbance and system parameter variation on the system, it is necessary to configure corresponding angle sensors in the camber wing to form a complete deformation feedback control system.

And at the rotating shaft, the outer sides of the two connecting pieces are respectively and tightly connected with two common ribs. The front middle part, the rear middle part and the rear edge structural section of the wing are controlled in a rotating mode through a rotating mechanism, the angle sensor is connected with a rotating shaft on the wing rotating device through a driving wheel, and the actual rotating angle of the steering engine is calculated by utilizing data of the sensor and the transmission proportion of the driving wheel, so that feedback and adjustment of wing camber are achieved.
The bending feedback control process of the scheme is as follows: the wing bending degree is expected, the flight control device outputs corresponding signals, the steering engine receives the signals from the flight control device, and the rotating shaft drives the reinforcing ribs connected with the steering engine to rotate under the driving of the steering engine, so that the wing structural section connected with the steering engine realizes the rotation function. Meanwhile, the steering engine drives an angle sensor connected with the steering engine to rotate, and the angle sensor reads the rotation angle of the steering engine and converts the rotation angle into corresponding electric signals to be transmitted to the flight control device, so that a complete angle feedback system is formed.

The longitudinal wall is an internal structure of the wing and is connected with each wing rib section along the wingspan direction. At the rotating shaft, the longitudinal wall is split, so that a sufficient rotating space is reserved for the rotating shaft.
The connecting piece connects the rib and the rotating shaft at the joint of the rib and the rotating shaft through the consolidation of the rib, and the connection mode of the connecting piece and the rib is determined according to the mode of selecting materials.
The steering engine and the rotating shaft form a rotating system to realize the camber change of the wing, and meanwhile, the rotating shaft bears a certain load, and the connecting mode between the steering engine and the rotating shaft is determined according to the structure of the steering engine and the material of the rotating shaft.

The form of the driving wheel is selected according to the structure of the wing, and is a gear, a rubber wheel or other forms.
