A vacuum system is connected in fluid communication with the plurality of suction cups and is capable of providing vacuum pressure to the plurality of suction cups, whereby the vacuum pressure generates suction forces between the plurality of suction cups and the leading-edge sheath when the opposed carriage members are in the engaged position. An upper assembly is disposed in combination with the lower assembly, and comprises a plurality of stanchions connected to the base of the lower assembly, and a contour clamp connected to each of the stanchions capable of translational movement relative to the leading-edge sheath contour nest. The contour clamps are configured for supporting the helicopter main rotor blade subassembly and function to facilitate insertion of the helicopter main rotor blade subassembly into the leading-edge sheath.

    摘要: A method for fabricating a helicopter blade subassembly includes the steps of providing a blade compaction apparatus having a lower assembly configured for mating with an upper assembly. The lower assembly includes a base having a contoured upper airfoil nest with at least two guide ramps and a plurality of leading-edge pusher cams disposed proximal thereto. The upper assembly includes a support structure supporting a flexible impervious membrane, wherein the flexible impervious membrane and the contoured upper airfoil nest define a molding cavity therebetween upon mating of the upper assembly to the lower assembly. The method further includes disposing the upper airfoil skin and the core in combination with the contoured upper airfoil nest, and then connecting a tip end support insert and a root end support insert in combination with the spar assembly, wherein each of the support inserts include guide members. The spar assembly is located in chordwise alignment in the contoured upper airfoil nest by driving the guide members into conics in the guide ramps and driving the spar assembly into a core conic with the leading-edge pusher cams. The lower airfoil skin is then disposed in combination with the core and the spar to form the helicopter blade subassembly, and then the upper assembly is mated to the lower assembly. The air within the molding cavity is then evacuated such that evacuating the air causes the flexible impervious membrane to apply compaction forces to the helicopter blade subassembly.

    摘要: Apparatus and methods for fabricating a helicopter main rotor blade include a compaction fixture for assembling and compacting blade subassembly components and a sheath spreading/insertion apparatus for spreading and inserting a leading-edge sheath onto the blade subassembly during the compaction process. The compaction fixture includes a lower assembly having a contoured upper airfoil nest mounted in combination with a support structure and an upper assembly having a pressure bag affixed in sealed combination to a contoured backplate affixed in combination to a structural support truss. The contoured upper airfoil nest includes a plurality of tooling pins for locating an upper composite skin in aligned combination on the contoured upper airfoil nest and a plurality of pusher pins for chordwise alignment of a spar assembly in the contoured upper airfoil nest. Spar stanchions affixed to the support structure provide spanwise alignment of the spar assembly in the contoured upper airfoil nest. With the upper and lower assemblies in locked combination, the pressure bag is pressurized to compact the assembled blade subassembly components. The sheath spreading/insertion apparatus includes a movable stanchion, upper and lower elongate carriage members mounted in synchronized movable combination with the stanchion, and a row of suction cups mounted in combination with each carriage member. Pneumatic cylinders are mounted in combination with the stanchion and the respective carriage members.
