The V-22 incorporates a blade-fold/wing-stow (BF/WS) system to meet this stowing requirement. In this paper, the control system and individual components that perform the BF/WS operations are described, as well as the functional requirements for the …

Aug 13, 2013 · The Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey is an American multi-mission, military, tiltrotor aircraft with both a vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL), and short takeoff and landing (STOL) capability. It is...

Blade Fold/Wing Stow Sequence. The V-22 is fully shipboard compatible with the world’s first complete blade fold and wing stowage system. It is able to operate off all US Navy L-class amphibious ships, the LHA/LHD assault carriers, and can be stowed on full size CV/CVN carriers.

Provides mounting of blade fold linkages. Converts hydraulic fluid pressure into mechanical force to power the manual drive unit. Mounted on the manual drive unit. Four actuators provide kicking and unlocking of wing to enable rotation to flight and stowed position. Can unlock manually. can not manually lock.

The aircraft is required to fold compactly for ship­ board compatibility. This is accomplished by fold­ ing the rotor blades inboard above the wing with the nacelles at 90 degrees (Figure 2c). The nacelles are then rotated to cruise position (0 degrees) and the wing is swiveled over the fuselage. The V-22 uses an advanced digital fly-by-wire

V-22 CAMRAD I1 Model The V-22 rotor is stiff in-plane with a gimbaled hub and -15 deg pitch-flap coupling (a3). The structure is mostly composite, with a coning flexure and blade-fold hinges. The aerodynamic sections start with a 36-in chord at 5% radius, linearly tapering to a 22-in chord at the tip. The taper is

The V-22 propulsion design is the first design to meet operational requirements as outlined in rigid NAVAIR specifications. Fly-by-wire control tech­ nology simplifies the mechanical design, and use of composite materials achieves significant weight savings and …

The V-22 is fully shipboard compatible, with the world's first complete blade fold and wing stowage system. It is able to operate off all US Navy amphibious ships and assault carriers. For stowage, the wings are rotated to lie above and parallel to the fuselage to create a compact rectangular volume.

Sep 28, 2023 · The blades fold inward (top left and right); the wings turn up (bottom left); the wings fold back (bottom right).
