    Abstract: An aircraft landing gear assembly (50) comprising: a first structural member (52); a second structural member (54) pivotally coupled to the first structural member at an apex pivot point so as to be movable between a first angular condition and a second angular condition; a down-lock spring having a first end region pivotally coupled to a mounting structure and being arranged under tension to bias the first and second structural members to assume the first angular condition; and a linkage assembly, the linkage assembly comprising: an arm member (58) pivotally coupled to one of the first and second structural members at an arm pivot point, the arm having an first end region pivotally coupled to a second end region of the down-lock spring; and a control link (56) pivotally coupled to one of the first and second structural members at a first control link pivot point and pivotally coupled to the arm member at a second control link pivot point the such that, as the first and second structural members move relative to one another from the first angular condition towards the second angular condition, the first control link pivot point moves over centre, though an axis or plane bisecting the apex pivot point and the second control link pivot point.

    Abstract: Shield assemblies for an aircraft landing gear include an aerodynamic shield, a first support bracket assembly, and a second support bracket assembly. The first support bracket assembly is configured to couple with a structural member of the aircraft landing gear, to support a first end of the aerodynamic shield, and to have a first position that is fixed relative to the structural member in an x-direction, a y-direction, and a z-direction. The first support bracket assembly has a first clamp that is configured to fix the first support bracket assembly relative to the structural member in the x-direction. The second support bracket assembly is configured to support a second end of the aerodynamic shield and to have a second position that is fixed relative to the structural member in the y-direction and the z-direction.

    Abstract: Retraction of a landing gear assembly (4) on an aircraft (1) is actuated by a hydraulic actuator (12). The actuator (12) includes a piston (28) that travels within a cylinder (26) along a stroke length between a first position corresponding to the landing gear assembly when extended and a second position corresponding to the landing gear assembly when retracted. Movement of the piston (28) along its stroke length is snubbed at one end by a different amount according to the direction of travel, for example by use of an orifice plate (Fig 10; Fig 11) that has a discharge coefficient that is greater in one direction (Fig 13) than in the opposite direction (Fig 12). Asymmetric snubbing is thus provided, which enables the landing gear to retract faster.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for mechanically rotating an aircraft about its center-of-gravity (C G ) are disclosed. The system can enable the rear, or main, landing gear to squat, while the nose landing gear raises to generate a positive pitch angle for the aircraft for takeoff or landing. The system can also enable the nose gear and main gear to return to a relatively level fuselage attitude for ground operations. The system can include one or more hydraulically linked hydraulic cylinders to control the overall height of the nose gear and the main gear. Because the hydraulic cylinders are linked, a change on the length of the nose cylinder generates a proportional, and opposite, change in the length of the main cylinder, and vice-versa. A method and control system for monitoring and controlling the relative positions of the nose gear and main gear is also disclosed.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for mechanically rotating an aircraft about its center-of-gravity (C G ) are disclosed. The system can enable the rear, or main, landing gear to squat, while the nose landing gear raises to generate a positive angle of attack for the aircraft for takeoff or landing. The system can also enable the nose gear and main gear to return to a relatively level fuselage attitude for ground operations. The system can include one or more hydraulically linked hydraulic cylinders to control the overall height of the nose gear and the main gear. Because the hydraulic cylinders are linked, a change on the length of the nose cylinder generates a proportional, and opposite, change in the length of the main cylinder, and vice-versa. A method and control system for monitoring and controlling the relative positions of the nose gear and main gear is also disclosed.

    Abstract translation: 公开了用于机械地旋转飞机关于其重心(C G )的系统和方法。 该系统可以使后起落架或主起落架蹲下,同时前起落架升起,为飞机起飞或着陆产生正迎角。 该系统还可以使前起落架和主起落架返回到相对较高的机身姿态,以便进行地面作业。 该系统可以包括一个或多个液压连接的液压缸以控制前起落架和主起落架的整体高度。 由于液压缸是连接的,所以前端液压缸长度的变化会产生与主液压缸长度成正比和相反的变化,反之亦然。 还公开了一种用于监测和控制前起落架和主起落架的相对位置的方法和控制系统。
