摘要:
A thrust reverser actuation system for a jet engine having a turbine engine surrounded by a nacelle to define an annular air flow path between the turbine engine and the nacelle, with a thrust reverser having a movable element to reverse the direction of at least a portion of the air flow along the air flow path, where the thrust reverser actuation system includes a hydraulic actuator configured to be operably coupled to the movable element, and a remote actuator that controls the inhibit function of the hydraulic system.

In some aspects, an aircraft engine thrust reverser lock system includes a pin-capturing member. The pin-capturing member includes a body that is rotatable about an axis defined by a pivot extending through the body. The body includes an interior surface that defines a slot. The slot has an opening that is sized to receive a pin into the slot. One side of the slot includes a protruded sidewall surface that protrudes into the slot toward an another sidewall surface of the slot. The protruded sidewall surface defines an apex between the open and closed ends of the slot. Between the apex and the closed end of the slot, the protruded sidewall surface faces the rotational axis.

An improved technique for controlling an electro-mechanical actuator combines a sliding mode of control with a second mode of control. An error signal is generated based on the difference between an input position signal and a feedback position signal. When the error signal is above a predetermined threshold, the actuator is controlled in the sliding control mode. When the error signal is below the predetermined threshold, the actuator is controlled in the second control mode. The combination of the sliding control mode with the second control mode yields a robust controller that can tolerate large parameter variations and uncertainties without sacrificing precise steady state tracking.

A torque motor has a mechanical reference member, an armature, and a field assembly. The field assembly includes field pole pieces defining a pole opening, and the armature is mounted to the mechanical reference member for rotation about a motor axis and extends into the pole opening with respective gaps to the field pole pieces. The field assembly is secured to the mechanical reference member and spaced therefrom by elastically deformable flexures, deformed sufficiently to locate the armature at a predetermined position within the pole openings with corresponding lengths of the gaps. During manufacture, a load can be applied to move the field assembly relative to the mechanical reference member against the deformation force of the flexures to locate the pole opening relative to the armature pole piece such that the gaps of desired lengths are formed.

A method of locking a linear output member in a retracted position within a linear actuator, where the linear output member is capable of axial motion within a housing of the linear actuator, includes rotating a generally tubular rotor disposed within a rotary lock assembly of the actuator to a first rotor position, and shifting a lock capable of radial displacement within the rotary lock assembly based on rotating the rotor to the first position. The lock engages a radial groove of the linear output member when the linear output member is in a retracted position. The rotary lock assembly is constrained from axial motion. The radial groove of the linear output member includes an axially angled, substantially planar surface. The lock is configured to include an axially angled surface shaped complimentary to the axially angled, substantially planar surface of the radial groove.
