Title: Compact load path swashplate assembly
Inventor: SCHMALING DAVID N
IPC: B64C27/32
Filed: 2006-10-17
Granted: 2011-06-21
Abstract: A swash plate assembly includes a rotationally stationary swash plate and rotational swash plate which rotates relative to the rotationally stationary swash plate through a bearing system. Each servo control rod is attached to the swash plate assembly to communicate control inputs thereto through a respective servo lug. Each servo lug defines a servo pivot point off an in-line plane inboard of the bearing system. As the servo lugs extend below the rotationally stationary swash plate, a relatively uncomplicated attachment arrangement is facilitated which provides for redundant locking features at a highly inspectable location which simplifies maintenance and increased safety.  By locating the servo pivot point just inboard of the bearing system, an exceeding compact load path is defined thereby. The load path is defined from the servo control, to the servo lug, through the rotationally stationary swash plate, bearing system, the rotational swash plate, the rotor pitch control point and into the pitch control rod.
