摘要:
Aircraft isolator devices, systems, and methods for isolating a structural component within an aircraft can include an engine interface, airframe, and one or more (e.g., a plurality of) isolator devices attached to the engine interface and the airframe. In some aspects, the isolator devices have a housing, which has a first surface and a second surface that together at least partially define a perimeter of the housing and is configured for attachment to the airframe; an engine attachment component configured for attachment to the engine interface and disposed at least partially inside of the housing; and a plurality of elastomeric elements disposed on or over each of the first and second surfaces of the housing The plurality of elastomeric elements are spaced apart from the engine attachment component via the housing for improved heat dissipation from the engine, reducing operational temperatures of the elastomeric elements to prolong their use.

摘要:
Helicopter rotating hub mounted vibration control system for a rotary wing hub having periodic vibrations while rotating at an operational rotation frequency. The vibration control system includes a housing attachable to the rotary wing hub and rotating with the hub at the operational frequency. The housing is centered about the rotary wing hub axis of rotation and has an electronics housing cavity subsystem and an adjacent rotor housing cavity subsystem. The rotor housing cavity contains a first coaxial ring motor with a first rotor and imbalance mass and a second coaxial ring motor with a second rotor and imbalance mass. The electronics housing cavity contains an electronics control system which receives sensor outputs and electrically controls and drives the first motor and the second motor such that the first imbalance mass and the second imbalance mass are driven at a vibration canceling rotation frequency greater than the operational rotation frequency wherein the helicopter rotary wing hub periodic vibrations are reduced.
