The Bell/Boeing V-22 Osprey is the first production aircraft in the world utilizing tilt-rotor technology. The tilt-rotor allows the V-22 to takeoff and land vertically, much like a helicopter, and once airborne, transition into horizontal high-speed, high-altitude flight by tilting the wing-tip mounted engine nacelles forward 90 degrees so that the rotors function as conventional propellers. The V-22 is the first rotocraft designed to meet the requirements of four agencies: the Marine Corps, the Air Force, the Navy, and the Special Operations Command. This highly survivable,...

Rotor Brake Valve The rotor brake valve has two solenoid-operated, 2-stage, 3-way, 2-position, normally closed valves, an orifice, a check valve and a relief valve. By energizing the proper solenoid with 28 VDC, hydraulic force is applied to or released from the aircraft rotor brake. The brake is applied when the aircraft engines are shut down and prevents the inadvertent rotation of the prop-rotors and their drive train components. This module regulates the hydraulic flow to the winch and hoist hydraulic motors to control speed in response to an electrical input. Speed is independent of...

Ramp Control Valve The ramp control valve contains two solenoid-operated, 2-stage, 3-position, 4-way valves, a solenoid operated 2-stage, 3-way valve, a pressure-reducing valve, relief valve, and pilot-operated check valve. Each of the solenoid-operated valves can also be manually operated. Using either electrical or manual control, the ramp control valve controls hydraulic flow to the actuators, which raise and lower the cargo ramp, open and close the cargo door and latch the cargo door. Remote Switching Valve Each remote switching valve consists of a solenoid-operated, 2-stage,...

Differential Pressure Switch Optical Sensors Chip Detectors The differential pressure switch is designed for engine-mounted applications and other hostile-environment conditions. It may be used to detect fuel or oil filter clogging or to detect low-fuel booster pump pressure and for closing a warning indicator circuit. These high-reliability, solid state level sensors detect oil levels in the mid-wing, tilt-axis, and prop-rotor gearboxes. These units have no moving parts, are fully explosion-proof and protected from transients on the power supply line. Prismalite sight gauges make oil...

1817 Series Low Profile Ball Bearing Swivels Eaton's 1817 series swivels are used in the V-22 hydraulic system. These swivels, operating at 4000 psi (27,500 kPa), are designed to minimize torque and maximize service life. The swivels are manufactured from titanium material to minimize envelope size and maximize strength. Rynglok® Fittings The 5000 psi (34,500 kPa) high pressure hydraulic system of the V-22 aircraft requires highly capable fittings. The Aeroquip brand Rynglok® L5/R5 fittings are all Titanium, axial swage fittings that provide the link to join fluid delivery tubing, while...
