摘要

A swashplate of a blade pitch control assembly is provided including a metal component having one or more interfacing features. The metal component includes a hollow first cylinder having a first flange extending outwardly from a first end thereof and a second flange extending outwardly from a second end thereof. A sidewall extends between the first and second flanges such that a cavity is defined between the first flange, the second flange, and the sidewall. A plurality of connecting members is connected to a portion of the first flange and the second flange and is spaced about a periphery of the first cylinder. A tubular composite component is arranged at least partially within the cavity between adjacent pairs of the connecting members.
