Mechanical Design Hub design The hydraulic servo motor for pitch set ting is an integral part of the propeller hub. The design is shown in fig 6. The propeller hub is bolted to the flanged end of the tailshaft, which is hollow bored to accommodate the servo oil and pitch feedback tube. The servo piston which is bolted to the pitch control head, forms the hydraulic servo motor together with Fig. 7: Blade sealing rings the propeller cap. the time for inspection and mainte The high pressure servo oil system at the nance during docking. aft end of the hub is completely isolated from the pitch...

ODBox Design ODS type Valve box Coupling muff The shaft mounted unit, fig. 8, consists of coupling flange with ODring, valve box and pitch feedback ring. Via the oil distribution ring, high pressure oil is supplied to one side of the servo pis ton and the other side to the drain.The piston is hereby moved, setting the de sired propeller pitch. A feedback ring is connected to the hydraulic pipe by slots in the coupling flange. The feed– back ring actuates one of two displace Hydraulic servo pipe ment transmitters in the electrical pitch feedback box which measures the ac tual pitch. Pitch...

The gearbox mounted unit, fig 10, con sists in principle of the very same me chanical parts as the ODS type. How ever, the pitch feedback transmitter is of the inductive type that operates con tactless and thus without wear. The drain oil from the oil distribution is led back to the hydraulic power unit tank. Pitch feed-back Hydraulic servo pipe Fig. 10: ODF type – for gearbox mounting ODG type The gearboxintegrated unit, fig 11, consists in principle also of the very same parts as the ODF type. The main difference is the use of the gearbox sump as oil reservoir for both the pro Pitch...

Servo Oil System ODSODFODG A servo oil pump delivers high pressure oil to a high-press filter, a valve unit consisting of non return valves, safety valve, pressure adjusting valve and an electrical operated proportional valve. This proportional valve, which is used to control the propeller pitch can also be manually operated. From the proportional valve the servo oil is led to an oil distributor ring. Servo oil is also used for lubricating and cool ing of this ring. This excess servo oil is led back in the servo oil system. From the oil distributor ring high pres sure oil is led through...
