RAM AIR TURBINE GENERATOR ASSEMBLIES

摘要

A ram air turbine having a turbine with one or more blades, a strut having a drive section and a generator adapter section, a turbine shaft and bevel gear located within the drive section, a generator positioned within the generator adapter section of the strut and comprising an exciter and permanent magnet generator in the a turbine side, and a driveshaft having a pinion gear that engages with the bevel gear, wherein the driveshaft is removably coupled to the generator. The strut includes a cone positioned between the drive section and the generator adapter section, and the permanent magnet generator and the exciter are positioned inside of the cone of the strut. The generator utilizes a generator cover and a generator bearing, and the bearing engages with the driveshaft and the generator. The permanent magnet generator and the exciter are positioned within the cone of the generator cover.

主权项

1. A ram air turbine comprising:
a turbine comprising a blade; a strut removably coupled to the turbine and comprising a drive section and a generator adapter section, wherein the strut comprises a turbine shaft and bevel gear located within the drive section; a generator positioned within the generator adapter section of the strut and comprising a turbine side, wherein an exciter is positioned at the turbine side of the generator, and wherein a permanent magnet generator is located at least partially within a stator of the exciter, and a driveshaft having a pinion gear that engages the bevel gear, wherein the driveshaft is removably coupled to the generator.
