Research according to airplane accident records shows that a great part of casualties are caused by fires after accidents, and the survival chances of airplane passengers are greatly reduced once ignition occurs under the condition that a large amount of fuel overflows. The crash resistance of the fuel system is therefore of great importance to the safety of aircraft, in particular helicopters. A key technology for realizing the crash resistance of the fuel system is that a self-sealing and self-separating joint is arranged between the fuel tank and the fuel tank, between the fuel tank and the pipeline and between the pipeline and the pipeline. When the aircraft is in violent collision or crash, the joint can automatically seal the oil way and separate under various stress and deformation conditions, so that the flow of fuel oil in the oil tank and the pipeline is cut off, the fuel oil leakage between the oil tank, the pipeline and other elements is ensured not to be generated, and the sufficient escape time is provided for passengers. The prior art realizes the separation between the oil tank and the pipeline by breaking or breaking the fragile elements (such as a safety pin, a fragile section, a fuse and the like) through the force and the deformation generated under the collision condition, and the technology of realizing the separation through the structural damage has the following defects:
1) due to the fact that the stress and deformation conditions under the collision condition are complex, the failure mode of realizing separation through structural damage is not always predictable, the fragile element is broken, the joint is separated, but the self-sealing mechanism cannot be started and is still possibly in an open state, the oil way cannot be cut off under the condition, and fuel oil still leaks.
2) The prior art considers the separation modes under various potential acting forces such as stretching, shearing and bending, but does not consider the torsional deformation between the oil tank and the pipeline.
3) The self-separation function under various different acting forces is realized through the damage of a single fragile element, the setting of the separation force needs to be verified through a large number of tests, the technical difficulty is high, and the cost is high.
4) After the joint is broken, the joint can not be reused.

The working principle of the present invention is as follows,
when axial tension is transmitted to the female joint through a fuel pipeline, the female joint is driven to move outwards along the axis, the male joint shell is also driven to move, the male joint shell drives the male joint end cover to move, a guide block on the male joint end cover is arranged in a linear motion section of a Z-shaped cutting groove on the side surface of a male joint shaft core in the earlier stage, so that a compression spring is compressed, after the guide block moves into a directional rotation section, the male joint shell and the male joint shaft core start to rotate relatively, the rotation of a pressing mechanism is consistent with that of the male joint shell due to the existence of a limiting mechanism, meanwhile, due to the guiding effect of an inclined plane arranged on the pressing mechanism, a stop block enters a through part along with the guide rotation so as to be gradually separated from the pressing and pressing mechanism, along with the fact that the female joint continues to move outwards along the axis, the whole male joint shaft core is separated from the male joint shell under a guide line of the guide block and the second section of the Z-shaped cutting groove, the through groove on the male cover plate enables the stop block not to be blocked, and therefore self-separation of the connector is achieved. At the beginning of the process, the sealing shafts on the male shaft core and the female joint are separated, and the self-sealing is completed respectively.
In some embodiments of the present invention, if the pulling force transmitted by the fuel line exceeds the separating force set by the separating mechanism between the male connector and the female connector, the male connector and the female connector will separate quickly before the rotation of the male housing is completed, and the sealing shaft on the male shaft core and the sealing shaft on the female connector complete self-sealing simultaneously. This achieves a double assurance of the joint in the pull-apart mode.
In some embodiments of the present invention, when the connector is suddenly pressed during normal operation, the male shaft core is further pressed against the female shaft core, when the pressure exceeds a separating force set by a directional separating mechanism disposed between the female shaft core and the female connector housing, the female shaft core is separated from the female housing and can freely move and rotate in the female housing, and at this time, the female shaft core moves along the axis to a side far away from the male shaft core under the action of a separating elastic member, and as when the connector is pulled, during the moving process, the male shaft core and the female shaft core are firstly self-sealed, and then the male housing and the female housing are completely separated, and at this time, the female housing and the male housing are not yet separated.
In another embodiment, when the female housing is subjected to a torque, the male housing, the male shaft core and the female shaft core do not move relatively due to the existence of the rotating mechanism, the convex column of the male shaft core is inserted in the corresponding hole of the female shaft core, and the male shaft core is firmly fixed on the guide block of the male end cover due to the side Z-shaped cutting groove, so that the female shaft core cannot rotate along with the female housing, relative rotation can be generated between the female shaft core and the female shaft core, and when a shearing force generated by the torque exceeds a separating force set by the directional separating mechanism arranged between the female shaft core and the female housing, the self-sealing function of the male shaft core and the female shaft is realized as when the torque is transversely applied. The torque only enables the male connector and the female connector to rotate mutually and triggers self-sealing starting.
In some embodiments of the present invention, when the pressure applied to the joint exceeds the critical pressure, the pipeline starts to bend and deform, and the joint surface of the male joint and the female joint is a dangerous section of bending and deformation. The tensile stress generated by bending deformation exceeds the separating force of the spring locking pin structure in the double lug piece central hole at one end of the female shell, the double lug pieces on the female shell and the single lug piece of the male shell are separated at the Z axis, at the moment, the stop block going out of the male shaft core presses on the check ring at one end of the male shell and cannot move further, and the male shaft core is far away from the female shaft core due to the effect of the separating elastic piece, so that enough space is provided for separating the male joint from the female joint at the joint surface. Under the action of pressure, the male connector and the female connector are separated at the joint surface, then the pipeline where the connector is located is further bent around the Y axis, and finally the male connector and the female connector are separated at the Y axis, so that the self-separation function of the connector is realized.
The self-sealing separating type joint disclosed by the invention can realize the self-sealing and self-separating functions, and ensures that fuel cannot leak when being violently collided or crashed. The self-sealing separating joint is applied to the crash-resistant performance design of an aircraft fuel system, the crash-resistant performance of the aircraft fuel system can be simulated through computer software in the early stage of the aircraft design, fault modes and damages generated when the aircraft collides or crashes are simulated under various conditions, which places among fuel pipelines, between pipelines and an oil tank, between the oil tank and the oil tank can be damaged during the collision or crash, which places need to be damaged and which places need to be controlled to be damaged, and the self-sealing separating joint is installed in the places which are large in displacement, easy to damage, need to be damaged in advance and need to be controlled to be damaged according to the simulation result. By adjusting the parameters such as the elastic coefficient of a compression spring, the shape of an inclined plane, the eccentric distance and the like of the joint, the requirements of various fault modes generated during collision or crash and separation force and deformation required by damage can be met, and finally, the fuel system crash resistance test is used for verification. The joint separation force is convenient and simple to set, is suitable for different fuel systems and different fault modes, has safe and reliable performance, realizes non-self-destruction separation under the action of external force, is not damaged, and can be recycled possibly. The method is very suitable for the crash-resistant design of the aircraft fuel system, and has high practical application value.

As shown in fig. 12, 13 and 14, blind holes are formed on both sides of the female shaft core 201, a through hole aligned with the blind holes is formed in the female housing 2002, a spring locking pin structure is disposed in the through hole, and includes a female plug nut 212, a female locking compression spring 211 and a female spring locking pin 210, the female plug nut 212 plugs the outer opening of the through hole through threaded connection, and the female spring locking pin 210 is pressed at the inner opening edge of the through hole by the female locking compression spring 211 located between the female spring locking pin 210 and the female plug nut 212, so that the spring keeps a compressed state; the shoulder that sets up on female head spring locking pin 210 offsets with locking compression spring 208 on the one hand, and on the other hand is connected along forming the hook with the inboard mouth of through-hole, restricts female head spring locking pin 210's position, and female head spring locking pin 210's arc end stretches out the through-hole again, enters into in the blind hole on female head mandrel 201. The fixing and the separation of the female shaft core 201 in the female shell 202 are realized by controlling the radian of the head of the female spring locking pin 210, the shape of the inclined arc surface corresponding to the female shaft core 201 and the spring coefficient of the female locking compression spring 211, and the force required by the separation is controlled. The mode of separating the female mandrel 201 from the female housing 202 is two, one is to separate the male housing away from the female housing along the axis, and the other is to separate the female housing away from the male housing after rotating around the female mandrel 201. The situation that the separation is separated along the axis in the direction of the male head does not exist, because as shown in FIG. 15, a corresponding inclined cambered surface is not arranged in the blind hole on the shaft core 201 of the female head; like the male mandrel, the female mandrel 201 is self-sealing after separation. As shown in fig. 14, a stop 1053 extends inwardly from the mouth edge of the male housing 105 toward the female side to limit further forward movement of the stop.
The female end cover 205 is fixedly connected with the female housing 202 through four bolts 103 and the spring washer 104. The female end cap 205 has another flared fitting 101 eccentrically mounted thereon, the eccentrically located flared fitting 101 being in the same diametrical direction as the binaural piece. The flared fitting 101 is in threaded communication with the female end cap 205. Thus, the flared fitting 101 at each end of the self-sealing split fitting are not coaxial.
As shown in fig. 2, the stopper is tightly pressed by the pressing plate 109 through the spring compression force provided by the compression spring 113, so that the male shaft core 112 is tightly matched with the fixed female shaft core 201 to realize sealing, meanwhile, the male shaft core 112 and the female shaft core 201 are mutually abutted and cannot reach a self-sealing position, the sealing compression springs 116 on both sides are in a compression state, and since the sealing supports 115 on both sides are hollowed out, fuel can circulate between the male and female heads as exemplified by arrows in fig. 2; on the other hand, the stopper is just located in the groove 1091 of the pressing plate 109, and the surface of the groove of the pressing plate 109 is set to be an inclined plane, so that when the male shaft core 112 is under tension, the stopper rotates by a certain angle to separate from the pressing plate 109 under the action of the shape of the Z-shaped cutting groove, and is completely separated from the female joint 200, and the angle and the shape of the inclined plane can meet the tension requirements required by different tension separation modes.
The working principle of the embodiment is as follows:
first, mounting mode
As shown in fig. 16, the self-sealing breakaway fitting can be mounted on a fuel tank wall or fuselage structural frame. At this time, the protective cover 300 of the joint body needs to be made on the oil tank or the frame of the body structure, so as to prevent the self-sealing separation type joint from being damaged by the action of the transverse force. Or may be connected directly to the fuel line 400 as shown in figure 17.
Second, normal operation
The oil path in normal operation of this embodiment is shown by the arrow in fig. 2. At this time, the seal shafts 118 of the male and female connectors 100 and 200 are pressed against each other, the compression seal compression springs 116 are opened, the oil passage is a passage, and the male shaft core seal 206 and the female seal 204 complete the sealing of the oil passage. If the male mandrel 112 is separated from the female mandrel 201 by a certain distance, the two sealing shafts 118 are closed due to the rebound of the sealing compression spring, and the oil path is closed.
Three, separation mode
The present embodiment is mounted on the tank wall or the frame of the fuselage structure to mainly bear the potential forces of tension, compression, torsion, and transverse force. The direct connection with the pipeline mainly bears the potential acting forces such as tension, pressure and torque. Therefore, the self-sealing separation type joint in the embodiment can realize self-sealing and self-separation of the fuel pipeline without damage of parts through structural design according to the specific stress form and deformation of the self-sealing separation type joint under the collision condition, ensures self-sealing before separation, and achieves zero leakage. The specific separation modes include the following modes:
1. pull force disengagement mode
Install on fuel tank wall or fuselage structure frame: the male shaft core 112 is fixed on the wall of the oil tank or the frame of the machine body structure and can not move, the pulling force is transmitted to the flared connector of the female shell 202 through the fuel pipeline during collision to drive the female shell 202 to move outwards along the axis, the double lugs on the female shell 202 are connected with the single lugs of the anti-torsion bearing sleeve 106 on the male shell 105 through the spring locking pin structure to drive the male shell 105 to move, the male shell 105 drives the male end cover 102 to move, since the pressure plate 109 and the push ring 111 are still in the stop position, the compression spring 113 is compressed by the movement of the male end cap 102, the male end cap 102 is guided by the guide blocks on the male end cap 102 and the Z-shaped slots on the side of the male mandrel 112, after the guide block moves into the directional rotation section, the male housing 105 is directionally rotated around the anti-torsion bearing sleeve 106, and the compression plate 109 is driven to directionally rotate through the structural connection. Meanwhile, due to the guiding effect of the inclined plane arranged on the pressing plate 109, the four stoppers on the outer side of the male head shaft core 112 are gradually separated from the pressing plate 109 along with the guiding rotation, and when the four stoppers on the outer side of the male head shaft core 112 are positioned in the through groove on the pressing plate 109, the whole male head shaft core 112 can be separated from the male connector 100, so that the self-separation of the connector is realized. In the process, the guide block on the male end cap 102 starts to move along the Z-shaped cutting groove linear moving section on the side surface of the male axial core 112, when the convex column of the male axial core 112 is disconnected with the female axial core 201, the guide block on the male end cap 102 enters the Z-shaped cutting groove directional rotating section on the side surface of the male axial core 112 to rotate, at the moment, the female axial core 201 cannot rotate along with the male axial core 112, when the guide block on the male end cap 102 rotates along with the Z-shaped cutting groove directional rotating section on the side surface of the male axial core 112, the male axial core 112 is disconnected from the sealing shaft 118 of the female axial core 201, self-sealing is respectively completed, at the moment, the male axial core 112 is still in the sealing cavity of the female axial core 201 formed by the male axial core sealing ring 206, and self-sealing of the male joint 100 and the female joint 200 is completed before separation.
If the pulling force transmitted from the fuel pipeline exceeds the separation pulling force set by the spring locking pin structure on the double lug plate 2001, at this time, the male connector 100 and the female connector 200 will be separated quickly before the male housing 105 does not complete rotation, and the male shaft core 112 and the female shaft core 201 are self-sealed and self-separated as above. This achieves a dual assurance of the connector in the pull-apart mode, while providing design convenience and feasibility for the separation pull (mainly bending deformation) of the spring locking pin structure on the female housing 202 and the separation pull in the pull-apart mode.
The mode of disconnection of the connector in this installation mode, when directly connected to the pipeline, is substantially similar to the installation of the connector on the tank wall or fuselage structural frame, except that under bi-directional tension, the male luer 112 is not fixed and therefore moves outwardly, which makes disconnection of the connector faster and less time consuming.
2. Pressure separation mode
The separation mode of installation on the tank wall or fuselage structural frame and direct connection to the pipeline is substantially identical:
this joint is pressurized suddenly when normal work, public first axle core 112 further atress top is to female first axle core 201, exceed the separating force of the spring locking round pin structure that female first axle core 201 both sides limit set up when pressure, then female first axle core 201 will separate with female first shell 202, can be at female first shell 202 free movement and rotation, female first axle core 201 is under the separating spring 203 effect this moment, move to keeping away from public first axle core 112 one side along the axis, it is the same with pulling force separation mode, female first axle core 201 is at the in-process that removes, accomplish public first axle core 112 and female first axle core 201 self sealss earlier, then both break away from completely. The female housing 202 is not separated from the male housing 105 at this time. When the pressure applied to the joint exceeds the critical pressure of the section of the compressed pipeline, the pipeline begins to bend and deform, the joint surface of the male joint 100 and the female joint 200 is a dangerous section of bending and deformation, the flared joint 101 on the female end cover 205 is eccentrically arranged, the eccentric direction is consistent with the Y axis of the center hole of the double lug piece at one end of the female shell 202, and the flared joint 101 on the male end cover 102 is consistent with the whole center of the joint, so that the pressure applied to the joint is simplified to the joint surface, an eccentric bending moment can be generated, and the bending moment can guide the male joint 100 and the female joint 200 to bend and deform around the Y axis at the joint surface. The tensile stress generated by bending deformation exceeds the separating force of the spring locking pin structure in the center hole of the double lug piece at one end of the female shell 202, the double lug pieces of the female shell 202 and the single lug piece of the male shell 105 are separated at the Z axis, at the moment, four stop blocks going out of the male shaft core 112 are pressed on the retaining ring 1053 at one end of the male shell 105 and cannot move further, and the female shaft core 201 is far away from the male shaft core 112 due to the action of the separating spring 203, so that enough space is provided for separating the male joint 100 and the female joint 200 at the joint surface. Under the action of pressure, after the male connector 100 and the female connector 200 are separated at the joint surface, the pipeline where the connectors are located is further bent around the Y axis and finally separated at the Y axis, so that the self-separation function of the connectors is realized.
3. Transverse force separation mode
The fitting is mounted to the tank wall or fuselage structural frame and may be subjected to lateral forces during a collision, causing the fitting to flex. As shown in fig. 18, since the flared joint 101 on the female end cap 205 is eccentrically arranged, when a lateral force is applied to the flared joint 101, the lateral force can be decomposed into two forces, that is, Ft and Fn, where Ft drives the flared joint 101 to rotate around the joint central axis until the angle θ is zero, the Ft component force disappears, and F and Fn coincide, and at this time, the direction F, the eccentric direction of the flared joint 101, and the direction of the two lug pieces at one end of the female housing 202 are in the same orientation. In the process, the flared joint 101 drives the female housing 202 and the anti-torsion bearing sleeve 106 to rotate together, because the male shaft core 112 and the female shaft core 201 do not move relatively, the convex column of the male shaft core 112 is still inserted into the corresponding hole of the female shaft core 201, and the male shaft core 112 is firmly fixed on the guide block of the male end cover 102 due to the side Z-shaped cutting groove, therefore, the female shaft core 201 cannot rotate with the female housing 202, and relative rotation can be generated between them, when the separation force of the relative rotation of the female shaft core 201 and the female housing 202 caused by Ft is larger than the separation force of the spring locking pin structures at both sides of the female shaft core 201, the female shaft core 201 and the female housing 202 can be separated, can freely move and rotate at the female housing 202, at this time, the female shaft core 201 moves away from the male shaft core 112 along the axis under the action of the separation spring 203, as in the tensile separation mode, in the moving process of the female mandrel 201, the male mandrel 112 and the female mandrel 201 are self-sealed, and then the two are completely separated. Then the joint bears bending moment in a longitudinal plane shared by the direction F, the eccentric direction of the flared joint 101 and the direction of the double lugs at one end of the female shell 202 under the action of F, the joint surface of the male joint 100 and the female joint 200 is a dangerous section of bending deformation, and the male joint 100 and the female joint 200 are bent and deformed around the Y axis or the Z axis at the joint surface, and the same as the pressure separation mode is carried out until the male joint 100 and the female joint 200 are completely separated. In this mode, if the θ angle is zero or small, the female axial core 201 cannot be automatically separated from the female housing 202, and therefore, it is necessary to set the θ angle to be larger than a certain value by a pipe connected to the flared fitting 101 when mounting. For example, as shown in fig. 19 and 20, the pipes are arranged in an L-shape, the axes of the pipes form an angle θ (the angle θ must be larger than the angle required to separate the female axial core 201 from the female housing 202) with the common longitudinal plane, and the transverse force F is mainly transmitted to the flared fitting 101 by the pipes, so that the female axial core 201 is ensured to be separated from the female housing 202 when the fitting is subjected to the transverse force.
4. Torsional decoupled mode
The separation mode of installation on the tank wall or fuselage structural frame and direct connection to the pipeline is substantially identical:
when the connector is subjected to the torque shown in fig. 16 and 17, the flared connector 101 drives the female housing 202 and the anti-torsion bearing sleeve 106 to rotate together under the action of the torque, because the male shaft core 112 and the female shaft core 201 do not move relatively, the convex column of the male shaft core 112 is still inserted into the corresponding hole of the female shaft core 201, and the male shaft core 112 is firmly fixed on the guide block of the male end cover 102 due to the side Z-shaped cutting groove, so the female shaft core 201 cannot rotate together with the female housing 202, relative rotation can be generated between the two, and when the shearing force generated by the torque exceeds the separation force of the spring locking pin structures arranged at the two sides of the female shaft core 201, the self-sealing function of the male shaft core 112 and the female shaft core 201 is realized as in the transverse force separation mode. The moment of torsion only can make male joint and female joint rotate each other and trigger self sealss and start, still need to cooperate other atresss and deformation can accomplish the separation. Based on the separation modes, the self-sealing separation type joint disclosed by the invention can realize the self-sealing and self-separating functions, and ensures that fuel cannot leak when being violently collided or crashed. As can be seen from the description of the separation structure and the separation principle of the separation modes, even under the combined action of various stresses and deformation, the separation modes are not interfered with each other, and who reaches the separation condition first and finishes the separation mode first.
The crash resistance of an aircraft fuel system plays a crucial role in the safety of the aircraft. By applying the self-sealing split type joint in the embodiment to the crash-resistant performance design of the aircraft fuel system, the crash-resistant performance of the aircraft fuel system can be simulated through computer software in the early stage of the aircraft design, the failure modes and the damage generated when the aircraft collides or crashes are simulated under various conditions, which places among fuel pipelines, between the pipelines and the oil tank, and between the oil tank and the oil tank can be damaged in the collision or crash, which places need to be damaged and which places need to be controlled to be damaged, and the self-sealing split type joint is installed in the places which are large in displacement, easy to damage, need to be damaged in advance and need to be controlled to be damaged according to the simulation result. By adjusting the parameters such as the elastic coefficient of a compression spring, the shape of a guide surface, the eccentric distance and the like of the joint, the requirements of various fault modes generated during collision or crash and separation force and deformation required by damage can be met, and finally, the joint is verified through a crash resistance test of a fuel system. The joint separation force is convenient and simple to set, is strong in applicability to different fuel systems and different fault modes, is convenient to disassemble and assemble, is low in cost, and is safe and reliable in performance. The self-sealing separation type joint is very suitable for the crash-resistant design of an aircraft fuel system, and has high practical application value.
