Description
Split type connection structure of engine thrust joint and torque installation section Technical Field The application belongs to the technical field of aeroengine mounting structure design, in particular to a split type connecting structure of an engine thrust joint and a torque mounting section, and particularly relates to a split type design for completely decoupling an engine thrust transmission function, a torque and a torque balance function in structure. Background In an active aircraft, the engine is connected to the wing by a pylon, the connection of which must be capable of transmitting the great thrust, gravity, inertial and aerodynamic loads of the engine, while accommodating the relative displacement between the engine and the pylon due to thermal expansion. Conventional engine rear mounting sections often employ an integrated or semi-integrated design in which the thrust transmission path and torque reaction path are implemented by a compact, structurally coupled main engine rear mounting section. This conventional design has inherent limitations: 1. the load path coupling and the stress are complex, namely the thrust and the torque load are transmitted on the same main structure, so that a complex composite stress state is caused, the accurate analysis is difficult, and fatigue cracks are easy to initiate at a stress concentration point. 2. Design compromises and weight penalties-a single structure needs to meet both thrust and torque demanding requirements, often resulting in "overstock," i.e., increasing the overall weight to meet local high strength or stiffness requirements, which is detrimental to aircraft weight loss. 3. The maintenance performance is poor, when the integrated structure is overhauled and replaced, the whole rear mounting section is often required to be taken as a whole or a main component for dismounting, the process is complex, and the time and the labor are consumed. 4. The integrated structure is sensitive to manufacturing and assembly errors, the compact integrated structure has extremely high requirements on the machining precision and the assembly precision of parts, and small errors can lead to assembly stress and abnormal stress of the parts, so that the service life of the structure is influenced. 5. The lack of modularity and upgrade flexibility-any improvement to the thrust or torque transfer system may lead to a full body, requiring redesign of the entire connection structure.
