16、L ARP1328C Page 3 of 9 2.2 Definitions 2.2.1 JET BLAST The equivalent of a wind gust produced by the jet engines of an aircraft. 2.2.2 OUTRIGGERS Stabilizer devices used to improve the stability of vehicles, applied within the envelope of the vehicle. 2.2.3 STEADY-STATE WIND A wind which produces a

17、constant force. 2.2.4 VEHICLE INSTABILITY Deflection of vehicle due to a wind force, causing unsafe working conditions. 2.2.5 VEHICLE TIP POINT Maximum vehicle instability where the vehicle center of gravity has been rotated by a wind force to a point directly above the vehicle pivot point. 2.2.6 VE

18、HICLE PIVOT POINT That point of the vehicle in contact with the ground on the opposite side of the vehicle from the side to which the wind force is applied and furthest from the winds application point. 2.2.7 WIND Movement of air which causes a force to be imposed on surfaces of aircraft ground supp

19、ort equipment. 2.2.8 WIND GUST A temporary increased wind force that exceeds the steady-state wind force. 3. STABILITY INCREASE SYSTEMS 3.1 Integral Vehicle Chassis Methods 3.1.1 Heavy-Duty Springs and Auxiliary Overload Springs These produce a harder ride, but provide increased side movement stabil

20、ity and assist in leveling off-center loads when the vehicle is moving or stationary 3.1.2 Heavy-Duty Shock Absorbers These produce a harder ride but provide increased side movement stability while the vehicle is moving. 3.1.3 Tire Pressure High tire pressure on a vehicle increases the overall stabi

21、lity of either a slow moving or stationary vehicle but produces a harder ride. SAE INTERNATIONAL ARP1328C Page 4 of 9 3.1.4 Torsional Stabilizer Bar Systems These increase stability by reducing chassis movement through a rigid bar or spring and can be applied in several areas of the chassis. These s

22、ystems do not adversely affect the ride of the vehicle as much as those in 3.1.1, 3.1.2, 3.1.3, and 3.1.5. 3.1.5 Spring Lockout Systems These block out the chassis springs against the axle and improve the stationary stability of a vehicle. Spring lockouts should not be engaged while a vehicle is mov

23、ing as this produces an extra hard ride and transmits all road shocks directly into the vehicle structure. 3.2 Stabilizer Jacks and Stabilizer Systems These systems generally utilize hydraulic cylinders of manually operated structural devices with self-leveling or fixed foot pads that press against

24、the ground within the envelope of the vehicle. These systems stabilize the vehicle chassis when it is stationary by blocking out chassis movement on the springs and tires. Usually, stabilizer jacks are used in tandem (one on each side of the vehicle) and placed at various key positions along the len

25、gth of the vehicle. Two or more can be used as required. 3.3 Outrigger Systems These systems generally utilize hydraulic cylinders or manually operated structural devices that extend self-leveling or fixed foot pads to the ground beyond the normal envelope of the vehicle with heavy structural member

26、s that are connected to the chassis. The farther out from the chassis that these foot pads are extended, the greater the resistance to tipping. Generally, a combination of some of the above mentioned systems will be utilized to gain the desired stability and firmness of ride. The choice of these sys

27、tems is left up to the designer because every vehicle is different in design and function. 4. INTERLOCK AND ACTUATION SYSTEMS The use of interlock and actuation systems partially depends upon the quality and capabilities of the personnel that will be operating the vehicle. It is also advisable to ha

28、ve interlock devices on the outrigger and stabilizer systems that are depended upon for providing the safe working conditions for personnel. Normally, hydraulic power will be used to actuate stabilizers and outriggers, although use of electrical or manual means is possible in some cases. These outri

29、ggers and stabilizer interlocks should consist of lock valves at the base of each cylinder to keep the cylinders from retracting if a hydraulic line failure should occur. When actuating the outriggers or stabilizers, the operator should be located in a position where he/she can see the foot pads bei

30、ng extended. This strategic positioning of the actuation system will help avoid accidents and will assure the operator that the outriggers or stabilizers are fully extended or retracted as required. Depending on customer requirements, interlocks may be provided for any of the following functions: a.

31、 Prevent operation of lift systems until stabilizing devices are fully extended. b. Prevent retraction of stabilizing devices until the lift system is full down or below predetermined safe height without stabilizing devices in operation. c. Mechanically or electrically prevent the unit from being dr

32、iven with the stabilizing devices extended. d. Provide visual indication, such as a flashing light, visible from the drivers position to show that the stabilizing devices are extended and/or retracted. SAE INTERNATIONAL ARP1328C Page 5 of 9 5. STANDARDIZED FORMULA FOR CALCULATING STEADY-STATE WIND S

33、TABILITY (TIP POINT) The formula is applicable to all aircraft Ground Support Equipment. Assumptions: a. The formula is applicable to the vehicles projected areas in its worst operating condition where stability is involved. This generally occurs when vehicle is at full extension and is unloaded. b.

34、 The air density is assumed to be 1.20 kg/m3 (0.07528 lb/ft3), standard temperature of 20 C (68 F) and pressure of 101.3 kPa (14.696 psi). If extreme temperatures and pressures must be allowed for, the wind force should be corrected in proportion to the density. c. Wind velocity in km per hour (km/h

35、) or miles per hour (mph) is considered as a steady-state wind condition. Aircraft jet blasts will also be considered as a steady-state wind condition; however, they are likely to produce higher effective forces on the vehicle due to their dynamic nature. Standard formula for calculating the tip poi

36、nt of the vehicle: MO = MR (Eq. 1) where: MO = total overturning moment in N.m (lb-ft) MR = total restoring moment in N.m (lb-ft) Overturning moment formula: MO = 0.0484 V2=n1iiiiCHS in SI (metric units), or (Eq. 2) MO = 0.00252 V2=n1iiiiCHS in inch-pound units (Eq. 2) where: MO = total overturning

37、moment in N.m (lb-ft) V = wind velocity in km/h (mph) (see Figure 1) Si = area of ithelement in m2(ft2) (see Figure 1) Hi = height from ground level of center of area of ithelement in m (feet) (see Figure 1) Ci = shape factor of ithelement based on aspect ratio abin Figure 2 n = number of elements o

38、f sail area with wind loading (i.e., vehicle chassis, vehicle scissor lift system, vehicle body, vehicle boom, etc.) SAE INTERNATIONAL ARP1328C Page 6 of 9 Restoring moment formula: MR = W.d (Eq. 3) where: MR = total restoring moment in N.m (lb-ft) W = total weight of the vehicle in N (pounds) d = D

39、istance from the vehicle center of gravity to the vehicle pivot point in m (feet) as in Figure 3. As a wind force is applied to the side of a vehicle, the vehicle center of gravity is caused to move in the direction of the wind force. For this reason, d should be used as shown in Figure 4. (The cent

40、er of gravity will move due to spring deflection, tire deflection, and structural deflection.) Since: MO = MR (Eq. 4) Then: 0.0484 V2=n1iiiiCHS = W.d in SI (metric) units, or (Eq. 5) 0.00252 V2=n1iiiiCHS = W.d in inch-pound units (Eq. 5) The shape factors so obtained apply to full scale for structur

41、es with sharp edges whose principal resistance is due to the pressure forces. For bodies that do not have any sharp edges perpendicular to the flow, such as spheres or stream-lined bodies, the shape factor CN is not constant. For such bodies, the law for variation of the shape factor CN must be dete

42、rmined experimentally before safe predictions of full-scale forces can be made from model measurements. The force N normal to a flat plate depends upon the aspect ratio A = height/(width) of the plate. Writing N = CN q S, the shape factor CN varies from about 1.18 to 2 as shown in Figure 2. About 70

43、% of normal force on the plate is due to the large underpressures existing over the rear surface. N = CN qS (Eq. 6) where: CN = shape factor based on aspect ration abin Figure 2 q = wind pressure in kPa (lb-ft2) S = area in m2(ft2) SAE INTERNATIONAL ARP1328C Page 7 of 9 Figure 1 Figure 2 SAE INTERNA

44、TIONAL ARP1328C Page 8 of 9 Figure 3 Figure 4 6. STANDARD METHOD FOR TESTING AND PROVING THE TIP POINT (STABILITY) FORMULA 6.1 Application of a chain or cable pulling horizontally at the center of wind pressure of the vehicle. The maximum restoring moment can be determined by measuring the cable ten

45、sion and multiplying that value by the height of application above ground level. Deviations from this method, in order to have practical attachment points, for the testing and proving must be incorporated by re-calculation (e.g., interpolation). 6.2 An air bag can be applied between the vehicle and

46、a solid fixed structure, to simulate the effect of wind loading. The restoring moment can be determined by measuring the static pressure in the air bag, multiplying by the vertical area in contact with the bag, and the height of the center of pressure above ground level.
