LOCK ACTUATION SYSTEM FOR AIRCRAFT

摘要

Described herein is a system that includes an actuator with a movable input, a first summing mechanism with an input, a first output, and a second output. The input of the first summing mechanism is movably driven by the movable input of the actuator and the first output of the first summing mechanism is movably coupled to a first actuatable element. The system also includes an end mechanism with an input and a first output. The input of the end mechanism is movably driven by the second output and the first output of the end mechanism is movably coupled to a second actuatable element. The system further includes a sensor that senses a position of the rotational input of the actuator. A status of the first and second actuatable elements is based on a sensed position of the movable input of the actuator.

1. A system, comprising:
an actuator providing a movable input; a first summing mechanism with an input, a first output, and a second output, the input of the first summing mechanism being movably driven by the movable input of the actuator and the second output of the first summing mechanism being movably coupled to a first actuatable element; an end mechanism with an input and a first output, the input of the end mechanism being movably driven by the first output of the first summing mechanism and the first output of the end mechanism being movably coupled to a second actuatable element; a sensor that senses a position of the movable input of the actuator; and a controller that determines a status of the first and second actuatable elements based on a sensed position of the movable input of the actuator.
