    摘要: An actuator assembly has two actuators mounted back-to-back such that their actuator rods are displaced in opposite directions. Each actuator has a spring embracing the rod between two slidable collars. The spring urges the collars apart towards stops on the rod and stops on the actuator housing, so that, on failure of the actuator, the rod is displaced to a central position. The rod is driven by a motor which also rotates two discs of different diameters. Each disc has a notch in its edge which align only at the central position of the rod and allow a roller to drop into the notch. When the actuator fails, a solenoid releases a locking arm which engages the rollers, keeping them in the notches thereby preventing rotation of the discs and displacement of the rod.

    摘要: A selector lever that comprises a shaft rotatably attached to a pivot and arranged between two detent plates, each of the detent plates having a plurality of slots arranged for receiving a detent pin located on the shaft. Each of the plurality of slots on each of the two detent plates is defined by a radial depth. One or more of the plurality of slots is a failure detection slot having an extended radial depth. When one of the detent pins has failed, the opposing detent pin is allowed to travel into the extended radial depth when placed in the failure detection slot. This action reveals a failure indicator, providing a visual indication that one of the detent pins has failed.

    摘要: A non-jamming fail safe flight control system with non-symmetric load alleviation capability includes a dual cable control system one for each side of control surface, like an elevator or an aileron, controlled by a pilot but driven by a driving system which allows control surfaces to even out the load from one side to the other without affecting pilots control while—if one side becomes jammed—enabling the pilot, with no extra action, to continue flying the aircraft utilizing the other side. In another embodiment an automatic lock feature ensures that a pilot is able to continue to complete the flight in case of severance of a control cable due to a discrete damage without interruption attributable to the control system. Yet another embodiment utilizing either the same or a separate locking feature enables the pilot to lock the surfaces upon parking the aircraft.

    摘要: A aircraft anti-theft device for immobilizing the yoke of an aircraft. The aircraft anti-theft device includes a device for immobilizing the yoke control of an aircraft. The yoke control has a gust lock hole for holding the yoke in a stationary position. The device has a sleeve for wrapping about the yoke control. The sleeve has an interior channel for receiving a portion of the yoke control. The sleeve is divided along its longitudinal axis to form a first and second sections. The first and second sections each have a pair of end edges, a first side edge, and a second side edge. A lock locks the first and second sections in a closed position. A pin for insertion into the gust lock is fixedly coupled to an interior surface of the first section of the sleeve. The pin protrudes from the interior surface of the sleeve. The first and second sections are placed around the yoke control such that the pin enters the gust lock.

    摘要: The use of a center lock bar which telescopingly receives two telescoping arms, each of which has a control column or shaft grip on its remote end is disclosed. The arms are secured to the parallel control columns by at least one gust lock pin. Provision is made for a throttle mixture lock plate to be secured to the lower portion of the radio lock pan which, in turn, has essentially parallel sidewalls with opposed openings through which the center lock bar passes. Optionally folding extension radio lock pans may be employed for a double stack installation. Finally, means are provided in the form of a lock, whether padlock or internally mounted, to lockingly secure the center lock bar to the two telescoping arms. The method of the invention looks to providing a lock for radios, throttles, and gust locks in a dual control aircraft by stabilizing the two control columns by means of a telescoping member which can accommodate differences in the distance between the parallel control columns of the aircraft. The step in addition to the foregoing of locking is done by securing at least one pin to one of the parallel control columns, and thereafter mounting a central radio stack and throttle control centrally of the central portion of the lock. Once these steps have been followed, a lock removably secures the center lock bar against movement relative to the radio lock pan and the flight controls as well as engine controls.

    摘要: An automatic neutral position locking system for a control surface of an aircraft. A hydraulic prime mover is provided for moving the control surface. A locking device is capable of locking the control surface against movement. A ratchet-and-pawl device is operatively associated with a rotary drive train between the prime mover and the control surface for actuating the locking device in response to the control surface reaching a neutral position. The ratchet-and-pawl device normally is maintained in inactive condition when hydraulic pressure exists in the prime mover. A pneumatic piston-and-cylinder device, when under pressure, maintains the ratchet-and-pawl device in normally inactive condition. With a loss of hydraulic pressure, the ratchet-and-pawl device is effective to actuate the locking device in response to the control surface itself reaching the neutral position as the control surface moves under external loads.

    摘要: A shield of rigid sheet metal is of a size and shape to substantially cover the instrument panel of an aircraft. A pair of shrouds on the bottom of the shield are spaced so that each fits over one of the control columns of the aircraft, and aligned holes in each shroud are adapted to receive a padlock to lock the shield in place. The shrouds are of a length to fit closely over the control columns when fully extended to prevent any significant movement of the control column axially and pins, which are secured to the shield, extent through openings in the control columns to prevent any accidental or unauthorized turning. A cylindrical housing open at one end is received over the throttle control, and a lock stem extending vertically from the housing is received in a tube, which is fixed to the shield, when the shield is possitioned on the instrument panel so that there can be no manipulation of the throttle.
