摘要:
The invention is intended to reduce the drag caused by a complex-section part in an airflow, for example the landing gear of an aircraft, making it possible to optimise the lift/drag ratio and to reduce the aerodynamic noise by reducing the local noise source combined with a global optimisation of the aeroplane related to the reduction in drag. To do so, the invention provides for the shaping of the complex part, masking its form with a special casing.According to one embodiment, the aero-acoustically optimised complex-section metal mechanical part is fitted with an aerodynamically shaped cover made of several longitudinal parts articulated with hinges to facilitate their installation. This cover is attached to at least two supports placed away from one another along the axis of the part, each support is bolted to the cover and mates with the section of the part. The external face of the cover is cylindrical and its internal face bears against the supports. The cover advantageously has a translucent part beside the walls of a remaining opaque part. Stops are provided on the part to limit the translational movement of the cover.

An aircraft landing gear assembly comprises a landing gear (10) arranged to be moveable between a stowed position and a deployed position. The assembly includes a removably mounted cover plate (20) that covers a void (12) defined by a part of the landing gear assembly. The plate (20) may have a substantially constant thickness, one or more fixing elements (22) on one side only of the plate, and a sealing element (34) that extends around substantially the entire perimeter (20a) of the plate (20).

An aircraft landing gear is arranged such that in its deployed position it is configured to reduce, during the approach on landing, the noise generated by the interaction of the landing gear and the air flowing past the landing gear. Various means are described to reduce the amount of turbulent air flow generated in the region of the landing gear, including inverting and fairing the nose-gear shock-absorbing leg, providing faired twin in-line oleos and providing fairings that produce shielding air curtains.

An aircraft noise reduction apparatus is provided which includes an aircraft landing gear assembly and a noise reduction fairing 12. The landing gear assembly comprises a landing gear 10 arranged to be moveable between a stowed position and a fully deployed position. The noise reduction fairing 12 may comprise a wrap-around fairing which, when the landing gear 10 is in its fully deployed position, wraps around the landing gear 10 and extends along the majority of the length of a landing gear leg 11. A landing gear bay door assembly 16, 17 comprising at least one door may also be provided. The fairing 12 may have a recess 24 for accommodating one of landing gear bay doors when the door 16 is in its fully open position.

The invention relates to aircraft noise reduction apparatus, in particular, but not exclusively, to noise reduction apparatus on an aircraft landing gear. The aircraft noise reduction apparatus comprises a noise reduction attachment for a landing gear of an aircraft. The noise reduction apparatus is movable between a first position in which it deflects air away from a noise inducing component of the landing gear and a second position in which it allows access to the noise inducing component. The movement of the noise reduction attachment between the first and second positions is actuated by a part of the landing gear.

An aircraft noise-reduction apparatus (10) for a landing gear (20) comprises a skeleton structure (14), which supports and acts to maintain the profile of a noise-reducing layer. The skeleton structure may comprise blades (16). The noise-reducing layer may have more than 10 apertures through which, in use, air can pass and may be in the form of a deformable mesh (12).

An aircraft landing gear (1, 21) is arranged such that in its deployed position it is configured to reduce, during the approach on landing, the noise generated by the interaction of the landing gear (1, 21) and the air flowing past the landing gear. Various means are described to reduce the amount of turbulent air flow generated in the region of the landing gear (1, 21), including inverting and fairing the nose-gear shock-absorbing leg (3, 4), providing faired twin in-line oleos (2a, 2b,) and providing fairings (11) that produce shielding air curtains (24).

There is provided an acoustically treated landing gear door for reducing noise from a landing gear of an aircraft. The acoustically treated landing gear door includes a landing gear door for attachment to the aircraft. The landing gear door includes an acoustic treatment assembly integrated on an inner mold line of an interior side, and extending within an interior cavity of the landing gear door. The acoustic treatment assembly includes a core structure having a first side and a second side, a plurality of core cells extending between the first side and the second side, and a drainage system. The acoustic treatment assembly further includes an acoustic facesheet and a nonporous backsheet. The acoustically treated landing gear door reduces the noise from the landing gear, when the landing gear is in a deployed position, by attenuating acoustic waves emanating from the landing gear and reflected off the acoustic treatment assembly.

A wheel well fairing for reducing drag on an aircraft fuselage configured with an open wheel well for stowing landing gear of the aircraft. The wheel well fairing includes a Coanda fairing having a convex-shaped lower portion and an upper portion. The upper portion is configured for positioning adjacent an interior vertically-orientated sidewall of the wheel well, and the convex-shaped lower portion has a bottom surface configured to extend substantially parallel to and positioned adjacent with an outer hull surface of the fuselage. The convex-shaped lower portion is curved inwardly within the wheel well between the upper portion and bottom surface. The Coanda fairing is positioned at an aft portion of the wheel well to redirect airflow out of the wheel well in a rearward direction along the bottom hull surface of the fuselage.
