    摘要: A rotary device assembly is provided and includes an input shaft coupled to a torque generating device, an output shaft and a rotary device disposed to transmit first torque from the input shaft to the output shaft and configured with no-back capability to prevent second torque applied to the output shaft from being transmitted to the input shaft in an event the second torque deceeds a torque-limiting threshold and the no-back capability and torsional lock-up capability to prevent an overload of the torque generating device in an event the second torque exceeds the torque-limiting threshold.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for determining a discrete position of a first surface of an aircraft is disclosed. The first surface and a second surface movable relative to the first surface are provided. A sensor is disposed on one of the first surface and a second surface and a magnetic field source disposed on the other of the first surface and the second surface. The sensor detects a local magnetic field related to the magnetic field source and generates a voltage indicative of strength of the local magnetic field. The strength of the local magnetic field and therefore the generated voltage is related to a relative position between the sensor and the magnetic field source. The relative distance between the first surface and the second surface is determined from the generated voltage.

    摘要: An integrated asymmetric brake system for an aircraft includes a housing and a control surface actuator arranged in the housing. The control surface actuator includes a torque limiter output member and is operable to selectively deploy and retract a control surface. An asymmetry brake system is arranged in the housing and is operably connected to the control surface actuator and the torque limiter output member. The asymmetry brake system is selectively operable to prevent deployment of the control surface by activating the torque limiter output member upon detecting an asymmetry event. An asymmetry brake test monitor switch is mounted in the housing and operably coupled to the asymmetry brake system. The asymmetry brake test monitor switch is monitored to confirm functionality of the asymmetry brake system prior to flight.

    摘要: A gear ratio mechanism includes an input shaft, a first planetary gear set, a second planetary gear set, and a carrier link associated with an output shaft. The carrier link is configured to couple the first planetary gear set and the second planetary gear set. The carrier link is selectively driven by the first planetary gear set and the second planetary gear set in response to rotation of the input shaft.
