Title: Drive system for aircraft landing gear
Inventor: MORRIS JAMES
IPC: B64C25/40
Filed: 2015-03-31
Abstract: A method of engaging a drive system with a rotating wheel of an aircraft landing gear. A motor is operated to apply torque to a pinion so the pinion rotates. An engagement command is issued to an actuator at an engagement time, and the actuator operates the actuator in response to the engagement command to move the pinion from a neutral position to a contact position in which it contacts a rotating driven gear at an initial contact time, the rotating driven gear being mounted to a rotating wheel of an aircraft landing gear; then after the initial contact time operating the actuator to move the pinion further to a meshing position where the pinion meshes with the driven gear. A centre-to-centre distance between the pinion and the driven gear reduces as the pinion moves to the contact position and to the meshing position. The motor is operated to reduce the torque to below a predetermined level at or after the engagement time, maintain the torque below the predetermined level during a spin-down phase until the initial contact time, then after the initial contact time increase the torque above the predetermined level.

Title: System and method for producing high-purity vanadium pentoxide powder
Inventor: FAN CHUANLIN
IPC: C01G31/02
Filed: 2016-01-28
Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for producing high-purity vanadium pentoxide powder. Industrial grade vanadium pentoxide is converted to vanadium oxytrichloride by low temperature fluidizing chlorination, wherein chlorinating gas is preheated via heat exchange between fluidizing gas and chlorination flue gas, and an appropriate amount of air is added to enable a part of carbon powder to combust so as to achieve a balanced heat supply during the chlorination, thereby increasing the efficiency of chlorination and ensuring good selectivity in low temperature chlorination. The vanadium oxytrichloride is purified by rectification, and then subjected to fluidized gas phase hydrolyzation and fluidized calcination, thereby producing a high-purity vanadium pentoxide product and a by-product of hydrochloric acid solution. The system and method have advantages of favorable adaptability to a raw material, no discharge of contaminated wastewater, low energy consumption in production and low operation cost, stable product quality and so on, and are suitable for large-scale industrial production of high-purity vanadium pentoxide powder with a purity of above 4N.
