摘要:
A clamp-hubcap assembly is provided. The assembly may include a clamp (130; 230; 330; 430), a hubcap (120; 220; 320; 420), and a retaining device (140; 240A; 240B; 240C; 340D; 340E; 440). The retaining device (140; 240A; 240B; 240C; 340D; 340E; 440) may be any suitable structure capable of coupling the clamp (130; 230; 330; 430) and the hubcap (130; 230; 330; 430) together.
摘要:
Methods for testing the operation of an aircraft braking system utilize the steps of applying a predetermined electrical energy level to an electromechanical actuator attached to a brake assembly, followed by discontinuing electrical energy to the electromechanical actuator. In some test methods, an actuation level of the electromechanical actuator is determined and used to evaluate braking performance. In other tests, a voltage generated by an electric motor in an actuator is measured and used to evaluate braking performance.
摘要:
Tire pressure monitoring systems and methods for detecting a tire burst are disclosed. The system (100) may include a tire pressure sensor (110), a tire pressure monitor (120), and a tire burst indicator (130). The tire pressure sensor (110) may measure tire pressure in an aircraft tire. The tire pressure monitor (120) may analyze data from the tire pressure sensor (110) to detect a tire burst. A tire burst may be detected in response to a rapid decrease in tire pressure. In response to detecting a tire burst, the tire pressure monitor (120) may transmit a tire burst message to the tire burst indicator (130). The tire burst indicator (130) may indicate to a pilot that a tire burst has been detected.
