舰载机弹射起飞过程中,由于牵制载荷突卸而产生的前起落架沿航向的快速振动会给机体结构和设备都带来严重的疲劳问题,为研究该振动现象并提出解决方案,建立了舰载机弹射起飞动力学模型,分析计算了前起落架的受载情况,并详细论述其动力学成因,推导了消除前起落架振动现象的充分必要条件。研究结果表明:牵制载荷沿下扭力臂轴向的载荷分量所造成的缓冲器活塞杆的向后弯曲是导致牵制载荷突卸后前起落架振动的主要原因;牵制载荷突卸后,起落架的前后振动导致起落架与机身铰接处的载荷快速、大幅的振荡,对机体结构以及机载设备的寿命和使用安全都会产生不利影响;牵制杆的长度直接影响牵制载荷沿下扭力臂轴向的载荷分量,降低该载荷分量可以有效地解决前起落架由于牵制载荷突卸所带来的振动问题。
The vibration of a nose landing gear caused by the sudden discharge of holdback load during the catapult launch of a carrier-based aircraft could bring serious fatigue both to the structure of the launch and the airborne equipment. To investigate the vibration and seek a solution, a dynamic model of the catapult launch is established. The load of the nose landing gear is calculated, while the kinetics and the way to deal with the phenomenon is also discussed in detail. From the catapult launch calculation, three important conclusions are obtained: during the tension stage, there is a long stroke and aft bending of the nose landing gear; once the holdback load suddenly discharges, the landing gear strut extends and springs forward rapidly; the fore-aft vibration of the nose landing gear produces a rapid and drastic load change at the joint of the gear and the fuselage. This vibration load has an adverse effect on the life and safety of the structure and the equipment of the aircraft. The length of the holdback bar influences the load along the lower torque link directly, and reducing this load has an obvious effect on the reduction of the vibration after a sudden discharge of the holdback load.
