Description
- 1. Technical Field
- The present invention relates generally to heat resistant covers for projecting devices, and more particularly to pitot tube covers for use with pitot tubes as commonly found on aircraft.
- 2. Related Art
- Pitot tubes are used on aircraft to measure speed and altitude. A typical pitot tube found on an aircraft measures around 25 centimeters long and has a 1 centimeter diameter. Several small holes are drilled around the outside of the pitot tube and a center hole is drilled down the long axis of the pitot tube. The outside holes are connected to one side of a pressure transducer. The center hole in the tube is kept separate from the outside holes and is connected to the other side of the pressure transducer. The pressure transducer measures the difference in pressure in the two groups of tubes by measuring the strain in a thin element using, for example, an electronic strain gauge. The pitot tube is mounted on the aircraft so that the center of the pitot tube is always pointed in the direction of travel and the outside holes are perpendicular to the center tube. On some airplanes the pitot tube is put on a longer boom sticking out of the nose of the plane, or affixed to the wing.
- Pitot tubes are delicate instruments and are generally covered when the aircraft is on the ground for a significant amount of time to prevent introduction of foreign matter into the pitot tube. Pitot tube covers must be removed before the aircraft is flown to ensure proper operation of the pitot tube measurement system.
- Aircraft are typically provided with means to heat the pitot tube to prevent ice formation inside the pitot tube or along the outside holes. During flight, the flow of air past and through the pitot tube can also generate high temperatures, such as, for example, up to 800° F. These temperatures pose a threat to aircraft maintenance personnel and equipment. Moreover, a pitot tube must be protected from ground based debris as soon as possible after the aircraft has landed, reflecting an appreciable concern in today's increasingly crowded airports. Therefore, there exists a need for a pitot tube cover which can be easily and securely emplaced on a hot pitot tube, and which is composed of material that capable of withstanding the high temperatures found on a pitot tube.
- It is therefore a feature of the present invention to overcome the above shortcomings related to known pitot tube covers, by providing a pitot tube cover which can be easily and securely emplaced on a hot pitot tube, and which is composed of material capable of withstanding the high temperatures found on a pitot tube.
- In a first general aspect, the present invention provides a heat resistant pitot tube cover comprising: a body of heat resistant material; an opening for accommodating an end of the pitot tube; a fastening mechanism to secure said body to the pitot tube; and wherein said body covers substantially the entire pitot tube.
- In a second general aspect, the present invention provides a method of protecting a pitot tube with a heat resistant pitot tube cover, said method comprising: providing a body of heat resistant material and of sufficient size to substantially cover the entire pitot tube; providing an opening for accommodating an end of the pitot tube; and providing a fastening mechanism to secure said body to the pitot tube.
- In a third general aspect, the present invention provides an aircraft comprising: a pitot tube assembly; and a heat resistant pitot tube cover, wherein said pitot tube cover further comprises a multilayer body including heat resistant material; an opening for accommodating an end of the pitot tube; a fastening mechanism to secure said multilayer body to the pitot tube; and wherein said body covers substantially the entire pitot tube.
- The foregoing and other features of the invention will be apparent from the following more particular description of embodiments of the invention.
- The features and inventive aspects of the present invention will become more apparent upon reading the following detailed description, claims, and drawings, of which the following is a brief description.
- FIG. 1 is an exploded view of an unassembled pitot tube cover in accordance with the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a pitot tube cover with an open cover flap in accordance with the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a pitot tube cover with a closed cover flap in accordance with the present invention.
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view of an outer layer of a pitot tube cover in accordance with the present invention.
- FIG. 5 is a perspective view of an inner layer of a pitot tube cover in accordance with the present invention.
- FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a typical pitot tube for an aircraft with a pitot tube cover, in accordance with the related art, in place.
- The following is a detailed explanation of the pitot tube cover, and a method for using the improved pitot tube cover in embodiments of the present invention with reference to the attached drawings. It should be noted that the same reference numbers are assigned to components having approximately the same functions and structural features in the following explanation and the attached drawings to preclude the necessity for repeated explanation thereof.
- FIG. 6 shows an embodiment of a typical
pitot tube assembly 600 having apitot tube 610, wherein the proximal end of the pitot tube is mounted to aflange 630. The pitot tube/flange assembly is mounted to an aircraft fuselage via amounting plate 620. The distal end of thepitot tube 610 is freestanding to facilitate contact with the air during flight. Also shown is apitot tube cover 640 according to the related art. - Referring to FIG. 1, an embodiment of the heat resistant
pitot tube cover 100 of the present invention is shown.

Foldingtab section 160 is designed to mate, when folded over, withstationary tab section 150. A fastening mechanism, such as, inter alia, a two-part fastening mechanism which includes amale snap 155 and afemale snap 165, but which could also be a hook and loop fastening system (not shown) or a mechanical fastening system, is located on corresponding portions ofstationary tab section 150 andfolding tab section 160. The fastening mechanism is located so as to secure the heat resistantpitot tube cover 100 to a pitot tube (not shown). - First
intermediate layer 120 is constructed of a heat resistant material such as, inter alia, KEVLAR fabric, silica fabric, or carbon fabric. Typical carbon fabrics are capable of withstanding temperatures up to about 3000° F., while typical KEVLAR fabric is able to withstand temperatures up to about 650° F. Typical silica fabric is capable of withstanding temperatures up to about 2300° F. Secondintermediate layer 130 is also constructed of a heat resistant material such as, inter alia, KEVLAR fabric, silica fabric, or carbon fabric. Similarly,inner layer 140 is also constructed of heat resistant material such as, inter alia, KEVLAR fabric, silica fabric, or carbon fabric. The firstintermediate layer 120, secondintermediate layer 130, andinner layer 140 may be constructed from the same or different materials. - The heat resistant
pitot tube cover 100 is formed whenouter layer 110, firstintermediate layer 120, secondintermediate layer 130, andinner layer 140 are combined to form a single multilayer composite. Theselayers - The multilayer composite is folded along axis A-A to form the heat resistant
pitot tube cover 200 shown in FIG. 2. A fastening method, such as that used to combine thevarious layers edge 210 of the heat resistantpitot tube cover 200 from aboutpoint 220 to aboutpoint 230. A pocket is thus formed into which a pitot tube may be inserted, which protects the pitot tube from damage and which also protects personnel and equipment from the high temperature surface of the pitot tube. This construction leaves an opening (not shown) underfolding tab section 160 through which a pitot tube (not shown) can be inserted into the heat resistantpitot tube cover 200. - Once a pitot tube has been inserted into the heat resistant
pitot tube cover 200,folding tab section 160 may be folded over and secured via a fastening mechanism as described supra, resulting in the heat resistantpitot tube cover 300 represented in FIG. 3. Thus, the pitot tube and its mounting flange are substantially completely enclosed by the heat resistantpitot tube cover 300, and potential damage to personnel or equipment from the hot surfaces of the pitot tube is minimized. - In one embodiment, the first
intermediate layer 120, secondintermediate layer 130, andinner layer 140 are each formed in the pattern shown in FIG. 5. Theouter layer 110 is formed in the pattern shown in FIG. 4. Note that in this embodiment, thefolding tab section 160 is formed only in theouter layer 110. In an alternative embodiment, any or all of the firstintermediate layer 120, secondintermediate layer 130, andinner layer 140 could be formed in the same pattern as theouter layer 110. - Embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed.
