    摘要: A strut (30) for an aeroplane wing (82) comprises a first part (32) adapted to be connected at one end portion (36) to a fuselage (81) of the aeroplane (80); a second part (34) connected at a first end portion (40) to a second end portion (38) of the first part (32) and adapted to be connected at a second end portion (42) to either a wing (82), a pylon or a nacelle of the aeroplane, the second part (34) being angled to the first part (32) to define an inverted gull-strut arrangement. Either the first part (32) or the second part (34) comprises a compartment (44) to house a landing gear (31) in a folded configuration (Cl).

    摘要: An aircraft assembly (14) comprising: a first part (18a); a second part (20b), the second part being movably mounted with respect to the first part; an electro-hydraulic actuator (42) coupled between the second part and a first anchor point (18a), the actuator comprising a cylinder defining a bore and a piston and rod assembly slidably mounted within the bore and an active chamber within which an increase in fluid pressure causes the actuator to change during a first phase between first and second extension states to move the second part relative to the first part. The electro-hydraulic actuator further comprises a hydraulic fluid supply circuit comprising a piezo-electric pump operable to supply pressurised fluid to the active chamber to change the actuator between first and second extension states.

    摘要: A retractable landing gear system for a vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft includes a rotational strut rotatably coupled to a fuselage of the VTOL aircraft. The rotational strut includes a first end, a second end, and an intermediate portion extending therebetween. A drag strut includes a first end portion pivotally connected to the rotational strut and a second end portion. A locking link includes a first end section pivotally connected relative to the fuselage, a second end section pivotally connected to the drag strut and an intermediate section having a hinge element. A retraction system is operatively connected to the rotational strut and the locking link. The retraction system is operable to pivot the drag strut about a first axis and rotate the rotational strut about a second axis that is distinct from the first axis.

    摘要: A landing gear 6 comprising a main strut 8 connected at one end to an aircraft 1 via a main joint is disclosed. The landing gear 6 further comprises an inboard sidestay assembly connected to the main strut 8. The inboard sidestay assembly comprises a forward stay 30a connected at one end to the aircraft 1, a rear stay 30b connected at one end to the fuselage, and a shear web 32 extending between the forward stay 30a and the rear stay 30b and configured to resist movement of the forward stay 30a relative to the rear stay 30b. The landing gear 6 is arranged such that when the landing gear 6 is extended substantially all the landing gear loads are transferred from the landing gear 6 to the aircraft 1 via one or more of the main joint, the forward stay 30a and the rear stay 30b.
