Dynamic simulation of flap mechanism considering assembly error

Abstract

The existence of assembly error will have an impact on the kinematic accuracy and dynamic performance of mechanical system, which can not be ignored. Therefore, a dynamic simulation method of flap mechanism considering assembly error is established. Firstly, the motion digital prototype of flap mechanism and the rigid flexible coupling dynamic model considering the deformation of flap wing surface are established, and then when the error direction is fixed, by setting the deviation values of the two driving shafts, the influence on the driving torque of the flap mechanism and the load of key components under the working conditions of 2mm, 4mm and 6mm is explored. Then, through the eight error directions defined by the deviation function, the influence of the direction error of the drive shaft assembly on the driving torque of the flap mechanism is obtained when the error size is 6mm fixed. The results show that when the assembly deviation of the two driving shafts is in the three working conditions with the selected size, the flap trajectory basically coincides, and the driving torque of the inner mechanism increases by 10.19% when the error is 6 mm; When the size of the assembly error remains fixed, the change of the error direction will increase the driving torque of the flap mechanism. The dynamic simulation study can provide some theoretical guidance for the manufacturing and assembly of this type of high-lift device.
