41、o TaxiBot_Panel_33. PATENTSAppendix A contains a list of published patents that closely relate to the LGTS technology.4. EVOLUTION OF AIRCRAFT TAXI TOWING SYSTEMSTraditionally aircraft have been towed using a tow vehicle equipped with a tow bar attached to the nose gear. These towbars usually connec

42、t to a pin or lug or axles of the nose landing gear. The tow vehicle and towbar can exert excessive forces and torques into the nose gear and airframe. To protect the aircraft, the towbar usually incorporates a shear pin device, which shears when traction/braking or turning torques exceed design lim

43、it load levels. The towbars are designed by ARP1915. The document is maintained by SAE AGE-2.In the 1980s towbarless towing vehicles were introduced first in Europe. As various companies embraced the new technology the use spread to North America in the 1990s. The towbarless vehicle are equipped wit

44、h a nose wheel/tire capture mechanism that cradles and lifts the nose gear off the ground to enable towing of the aircraft. The motivation came from limiting personnel involved in towbar activities and towbar connection injuries, and eliminating multiple types of tow bars. It also introduced the pos

45、sibility of performing dispatch towing to the runway at high speed with the airplane engines off. However this has not become a standard practice due to logistical issues. The towbarless towing vehicles were designed to allow towing various different aircraft using one vehicle. Typically wheel restr

46、aining devices capture the specific nose gear tire/wheel assemblies and determine the correct traction/braking/torque fuse settings to safely tow the aircraft.SAE AGE-2 developed various ARPs to be able to provide some guidance to the industry on key design features and critical testing of the vehic

47、les safety systems to prevent damage to the landing gear or aircraft. The issued ARPs include ARP4852, ARP4853, ARP5283, ARP5284, ARP5285, ARP5911, and ARP5916.SAE INTERNATIONAL AIR6246 Page 8 of 65In the early 2000s various companies started working on the next evolution of taxi systems. These can

48、be classified as:x Pilot controlled towbarless towing vehiclesx Landing gear taxi system (LGTS)o Nose gear wheel mounted o Main gear wheel mountedThis document will review the basic three systems but will focus on the landing gear mounted taxi systems.With the movement to more electric aircraft various companies started to look at landing gear mounted taxi towing systems as a means to move an aircraft
