    摘要: A hydraulic cylinder includes: a cylinder tube; a piston; a piston rod; a pair of end covers; and a snubbing mechanism configured to reduce the moving speed of the piston after the piston reaches the vicinity of the end of its stroke. The snubbing mechanism includes: a supply/discharge port formed in an associated one of the end covers; a valve configured to open and close the supply/discharge port; a connector configured to connect the valve and the piston together; and at least one recess extending from the edge of the supply/discharge port. When the piston approaches the end of its stroke, the valve closes the supply/discharge port to form a throttle oil passage, and hydraulic oil is discharged through the throttle oil passage to reduce the moving speed of the piston.

    摘要: A landing gear lifting/lowering EHA system includes: a hydraulic actuator configured to lift and lower the leg of an aircraft; at least one electrically operated hydraulic pump; a hydraulic path; a pressure sensor attached to the hydraulic actuator or the hydraulic path and configured to output a measurement signal corresponding to hydraulic pressure; and a controller configured to output a control signal to the electrically operated hydraulic pump, wherein, when a state in which the hydraulic pressure exceeds a set pressure continues for a set time, the control unit stops the electrically operated hydraulic pump in operation and resumes the operation of the electrically operated hydraulic pump after the hydraulic pressure drops to or below a second set pressure after the electrically operated hydraulic pump is stopped.

    摘要: An EHA system (10) for lifting or lowering a leg of an aircraft includes a hydraulic circuit (101) having a hydraulic actuator (a hydraulic cylinder 2) configured to lift or lower the leg, at least one electric hydraulic pump (3), and a hydraulic path, a pressure sensor (38, 83), a temperature sensor (84), and a control unit (a controller 9) configured to output a control signal for operating the electric hydraulic pump in leg lifting or lowering. The hydraulic circuit includes a pressure increasing element. The control unit performs health monitoring regarding the performance of the electric hydraulic pump based on the pressure of hydraulic fluid, the temperature of hydraulic fluid, and the speed of the electric hydraulic pump during operation of the electric hydraulic pump.
