System for controlling at least one actuator of the cowlings of a turbojet engine thrust reverser
View Patent ↗The control system of the invention includes at least one actuator ( 6 ) for a cowling ( 2 ), driven by at least one electric motor ( 7 ), and a control means ( 9 ) for the electric motor ( 7 ). The electric motor control means ( 9 ) includes a means for determining and/or estimating the outside temperature of the turbojet engine, the electric motor control means being adapted for adjusting the driving torque supplied by the electric motor on the basis of said outer temperature.
1. A system for controlling at least one actuator for cowling sections of a thrust reverser for a turbojet engine, comprising:
at least one actuator for a cowling section driven by at least one electric motor,
control means for the electric motor,
wherein the control means for the electric motor comprise means for determining and/or estimating a temperature outside of the turbojet engine, the control means for the electric motor being configured for adjusting driving torque delivered by the electric motor as a function of this outside temperature, and
wherein the determination and/or estimation means comprise temperature measurement means configured for measuring a temperature at the control means, the determination and/or estimation means being configured for determining the temperature outside of the turbojet engine as a function of the measured temperature.
2. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the characteristic curve for adjustment by the control means of the driving torque delivered by the electric motor as a function of the outside temperature comprises a set of levels corresponding to different ranges of temperature.
3. The system as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the value of the adjustment of the driving torque is determined at the start of an actuation phase for a duration of that actuation phase.
4. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the value of the adjustment of the driving torque is determined at the start of an actuation phase for a duration of that actuation phase.
