Landing Gear Components - AGK πŸš€

The landing gear system of an aircraft is a complex assembly made up of numerous structural and system components. πŸ› οΈ

Structural Components ✈️

1. Main Fitting: This is the central piece of the landing gear, providing support and attachment points for other components.

2. Shock Absorber: Helps cushion the impact during landing, ensuring a smoother touchdown.

3. Bogie Beam / Trailing Arm: These components support the wheels and distribute the aircraft's weight.

4. Axle: The part on which the wheels are mounted, allowing them to rotate.

5. Torque Links: Prevents the landing gear from twisting and keeps the wheels aligned.

6. Drag / Side Braces: Provide additional support and stability to the landing gear, ensuring it can handle the forces during landing and takeoff.

7. Retraction Actuator: A hydraulic or electric actuator that retracts and extends the landing gear.

8. Down Lock Mechanism: Ensures the landing gear stays locked in the down position during landing.

9. Up Lock: Secures the landing gear in the retracted position during flight.

10. Wheel: The component that makes contact with the runway.

11. Tire: Mounted on the wheel, it provides the necessary grip and cushioning.

Each of these components plays a crucial role in the functionality and safety of the landing gear system. Together, they ensure that the aircraft can take off and land smoothly and safely, handling the immense stresses involved in these operations. 🌟
