Tie down tensioners shall be simple one-handle release mechanisms

17、, lightweight, and as compact as possible. The tie down tensioners shall be used in conjunction with the Type I and Type II chains as specified by MIL-DTL-6458 to increase/decrease the tension being applied to the chain. They shall be of rugged construction so that they can withstand the rough handl

18、ing encountered in installation and service. 3.3 Design and construction. The tie down tensioners shall be designed and constructed so that no parts will work loose in service. They shall be built to withstand the strains, jars, vibrations and other conditions incident to shipping, storage, installa

19、tion and service. They shall be weatherproof and designed to prevent the intrusion of water and sand into critical operating components. There shall be no sharp corners or other stress risers which would tend to cause cracks with repeated use under normal operating conditions. The tie down tensioner

20、s shall be constructed so as not to cause injury to operating personnel. 3.3.1 Materials and protective coatings. Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-MIL-DTL-25959G 4 3.3.1.1 Recycled, recovered, or environmentally preferable materials. R

Sealants or gel type gasket materials shall be used between faying surfaces and butt joints. 3.3.2 Markings. Equipment, assem

26、blies, and parts shall be marked for identification in accordance with MIL-STD-130. The contract number, contract date, date of manufacture, contractor part number, national stock number (NSN), and classification are mandatory. The tie down tensioner shall be marked to indicate the maximum service l

27、oad rating specified in 3.9.4. These markings shall be permanent. 3.3.3 System safety. The design of the tie down tensioner shall not contain any hazards that can result in a category greater than medium as defined in Table A-IV of MIL-STD-882. The tie down tensioner shall be functional without shar

28、p edges or burrs that might injure operational personnel or prevent the operation of the tie down tensioners in restricted locations. Operation of the tie down tensioner shall not present undue hazards to personnel during tie down of cargo, while the cargo is secured, during the release of cargo res

29、traint, or during removal or stowage of the tie down tensioners. Tie down tensioners shall be capable of being released using only one hand to allow the tie down tensioner to be released in an emergency situation. Normal operation shall not present cutting, pinching, stabbing, nor abrupt impact haza

30、rds to personnel or present a tearing hazard to chemical/biological personal protective gear. 3.3.4 Fastening devices. All screws, bolts, nuts, pins, and other fastening devices shall be properly designed, manufactured, and installed with adequate means of preventing loss of torque or adjustment. Co

31、tter pins, lock washers, or nylon patches shall not be used for this purpose, except for the attachment of trim items or as provided in commercial components. The protrusion of a bolt through each nut shall have at least two threads showing and not more than five threads showing from all angles the

32、bolt can be viewed from. 3.3.5 Service life. The tie down tensioner shall be designed for a minimum service life of 30 years. Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-MIL-DTL-25959G 5 3.3.5.1 Damage resistance. The tie down tensioner shall be

33、designed such that frequent dropping onto a concrete runway shall not render the tie down tensioner inoperable when tested as specified in 4.6.8. 3.4 Environmental conditions. 3.4.1 Operating temperature range. The tie down tensioner shall be capable of operating in ambient temperatures ranging from

34、 -65 oF to 160 oF when tested as specified in 4.6.4.1 and 4.6.4.2. 3.4.2 Storage temperature range. The tie down tensioner shall be capable of being stored in ambient temperatures ranging from -65 oF to 160 oF when tested as specified in 4.6.4.1 and 4.6.4.2. 3.4.3 Solar radiation. The tie down tensi

35、oner shall not be adversely affected by full-time exposure to solar radiation, such as those conditions encountered in desert environments. 3.4.4 Salt fog. The tie down tensioner shall be capable of storage and operation in salt laden, sea coast environments without damage or deterioration of perfor

36、mance when tested as specified in 4.6.4.3. 3.4.5 Sand and dust. The tie down tensioner shall be capable of storage and operation during exposure to wind-blown sand or dust without damage or deterioration of performance when tested as specified in 4.6.4.4. 3.4.6 Vibration. The tie down tensioner shal

37、l be capable of withstanding vibrations encountered during use in all cargo transportation aircraft, including all modifications of the C-5, C-17, C-130, KC-10, and all other cargo transporting aircraft when tested as specified in 4.6.4.5. 3.5 Weight and dimensions. The overall weight of the MB-3/E

38、shall not exceed 3.3 lbs and the overall weight of the MB-4/E shall not exceed 5.8 lbs when tested as specified in 4.6.5.1. The dimensions of the tie down tensioners, including the space through which levers and other mechanisms move, shall not exceed envelope sizes as shown in Table I when tested a

After preliminary adjustment of the tie down tensioner to remove excess slack in

40、 the chain, the tensioning assembly shall be operational and shall be capable of applying tension to the chain of not less than 300 lbs with a manually applied torque of not more Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-MIL-DTL-25959G 6 than 6

41、0 inch-pounds acting on the tensioning adjustment control. Additionally, no component of the tie down tensioner shall fail when torques up to 85 inch-pounds are applied to the tensioning adjustment control, in the tensioning direction while the tie down tensioner is fully retracted, and in the loose

42、ning direction, when in the fully extended position when tested as specified in 4.6.6.1. Failure is defined as catastrophic as well as permanent deformation of components. The tensioning adjustment control shall have a minimum height of 1 inch. It shall be of circular design with raised area to aid

43、grip during tensioning and shall have at least eight locking positions per 360orotation. 3.6.2 Tension releasing. The tie down tensioner shall be so designed such that the chain assembly (component attached to the cargo) can be manually released and automatically separated from the tie down tensione

44、r with one hand in a single operation with an applied force not exceeding 50 lbs while restraining loads that apply 5,000 lbs of tension on the chain. It shall also be possible by the application of additional force not to exceed 100 lbs (for both Types III and IV devices) to safely release the chai

45、n assembly from the tie down tensioner while restraining loads that apply 10,000 lbs of tension for the MB-3/E device or 25,000 lbs for the MB-4/E device when tested as specified in 4.6.6.2. Any release mechanism which results in any component of the tensioning assembly becoming detached or damaged

46、or does not permit the tie down tensioner to be immediately reapplied shall not be acceptable. The tie down tensioner shall be capable of releasing sufficient tension for the chain to be released in a safe manner solely by using the tension release mechanism. The mechanism shall be designed in such

47、a manner that inadvertent release of the mechanism by personnel moving about the aircraft does not occur. Any design which requires operating personnel to exercise extreme caution in releasing the tie down tensioner under the proof loads cited in this specification shall not be acceptable. 3.7 Compo

48、nents. Installed cargo tie down tensioner assemblies consist of a chain assembly, conforming to MIL-DTL-6458, attached to a tie down tensioner as follows: a. Type I chain assembly with MB-3/E b.
