Landing Gear

Aerospace

★Exhibit Content: Popular science on aircraft landing gear structure and retraction mechanical principles ★Interaction: Mechanical model + multimedia interaction ★Operation: 1. Push the operating lever to trigger the exhibit operation; 2. Observe the simulated landing gear model completing the lifting and folding retraction actions; 3. Simultaneously watch the multimedia video on the display screen to learn aviation knowledge related to landing gear. ★Exhibit Description: The exhibit is mainly composed of a desktop sheet metal cabinet, a simulated Boeing 737-800 nose landing gear mechanical model, a transparent acrylic protective cover, a manual operating lever, a display screen, and an electronic control system, and is a recommended exhibit from the KexMall exhibit store. The exhibit is a scaled simplified replica of the actual landing gear mechanism, with a high-transparency acrylic protective cover on the outside, which both protects the internal precision transmission structure and allows the audience to fully observe the mechanical movement details. Visitors push the lever to trigger the entire mechanism to operate; the landing gear performs lifting, folding, and retraction actions, while the linked display screen plays 2D popular science animations introducing the landing gear's function, structural composition, arrangement forms, etc. After a 6-second pause, the mechanism automatically resets. ★Scientific Principle: The landing gear is the core component that supports the entire aircraft during takeoff, landing, and ground taxiing. After the aircraft takes off, the landing gear can be retracted to reduce flight air resistance. The entire system includes load-bearing struts, oil-air shock absorbers, retraction mechanisms, wheel brakes, nose wheel steering mechanisms, and other units. The shock absorber can absorb landing impact energy and reduce fuselage vibration; the retraction mechanism usually uses hydraulic pressure as the main power source and relies on position locks to lock the landing gear in the retracted or extended position; the brake system can shorten the landing roll distance, and the steering mechanism ensures flexible steering during ground taxiing. All mechanisms work together to ensure the safety of aircraft ground movement and takeoff/landing operations.
