Abstract
A hold open rod is provided. The hold open rod includes an outer tube, a lock body connected to the outer tube, an inner tube, slidingly disposed within the outer tube and lock body, the inner tube having an outer surface, and a friction pad captured between the lock body and the outer surface of the inner tube. A method for damping movement of a telescoping rod is also provided. The method includes attaching the locking body to an outer tube, configuring the outer tube and the inner tube to move with respect to each other in a telescoping manner, fitting a damper between an outer diameter of an inner tube and a locking body, and fitting the damper to frictionally engage the outer diameter of the inner tube and the locking body.
Claims (19)
1. A hold open rod, comprising:
an outer tube;
a lock body connected to the outer tube;
an inner tube, slidingly disposed within the outer tube and lock body, including an outer surface; and
a friction pad captured between the lock body and the outer surface of the inner tube;
a release assembly operable between a locked position, in which the inner tube is movable within the outer tube but cannot be separated from the outer tube, and an unlocked position in which the inner tube is configured be separated from the outer tube;
wherein:
the release assembly includes a release collar having a dog groove and a release groove,
the lock body includes a locking dog, and
the locking dog engages the dog groove in the locked position and the release groove in the unlocked position; and
a spring urging the release collar to the locking position.
2. The hold open rod according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the outer surface of the inner tube and an inner surface of the lock body form at least one tapered surface to affect a friction load developed by the friction pad between the lock body and the inner tube; the at least one tapered surface configured to allow the friction load to be adjusted for a set damping load or to be periodically adjusted; and the at least one tapered surface one of removes and engages a set resistance depending on the inner tube location relative to the lock body.
3. The hold open rod according to claim 2 , wherein the at least one tapered surface the lock body comprises a frusta-conical shape.
4. The hold open rod according to claim 1 , wherein the friction pad is an elastomeric material.
5. The hold open rod according to claim 1 , further comprising a cap, adjustably mounted to the lock body, and configured to move with respect to the lock body, to move the friction pad to impart an amount of friction force the friction pad exercises on at least one of the inner tube and the lock body.
6. The hold open rod according to claim 5 , wherein the cap moves the friction pad via a spacer.
7. The hold open rod according to claim 5 , wherein the cap is engaged to the lock body with threads.
8. The hold open rod according to claim 1 , wherein the lock body is removably attached to the outer tube.
9. The hold open rod according to claim 1 , wherein the hold open rod is attached to a portion of an aircraft.
