摘要:
An electromechanical braking system for an aircraft, including a first power conversion module (PCM) and a second power conversion module (PCM), each configured to receive power from a respective independent power source on the aircraft. The system further includes at least one brake system control unit (BSCU) for converting an input brake command signal into a brake clamp force command signal. At least a first brake control module (BCM) and a second brake control module (BCM) are provided, each configured to receive the brake clamp force command signal from the at least one BSCU and to output a primary brake clamp force command signal and an alternate brake clamp force command signal based on the received brake clamp force command signal. A first electromechanical actuator controller (EMAC) and a second electromechanical actuator controller (EMAC) are provided, each configured to convert a brake clamp force command signal to at least one electromechanical actuator drive control signal. The first EMAC is operative based on the primary brake clamp force command signal from the first BCM or, in the event of a failure disabling the first BCM, based on the alternate brake clamp force command signal from the second BCM. The second EMAC is operative based on the primary brake clamp force command signal from the first BCM or, in the event of a failure disabling the first BCM, based on the alternate brake clamp force command signal from the second BCM. The first EMAC receives its operating power from the first PCM, and the second EMAC receives its operating power from the second PCM.
摘要:
According to the present invention, an electromechanical braking system is provided. The braking system includes at least one brake system control unit (BSCU) for converting an input brake command signal into a brake clamp force command signal. In addition, the braking system includes a first electromechanical actuator controller (EMAC) and a second electromechanical actuator controller (EMAC) configured to receive the brake clamp force command signal from the at least one BSCU and to convert the brake clamp force command signal to at least one electromechanical actuator drive control signal. Further, the braking system includes at least one electromechanical actuator configured to receive the at least one drive control signal and to apply a brake clamp force to at least one wheel to be braked in response to the at least one drive control signal. Moreover, the first EMAC and the second EMAC are configured to perform antiskid control in relation to the at least one wheel to be braked.
