  • System and method of monitoring reduced performance
    Patent number: 11975868
    Abstract: A reduced performance monitoring system for a tiltrotor aircraft includes a physical component of the tiltrotor aircraft configured to displace over time in response to an input, a simulation component configured to generate a simulated displacement response of the physical component, and a comparison module configured to compare a measured physical displacement response of the physical component to the simulated displacement response of the physical component.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 11, 2020
    Date of Patent: May 7, 2024
    Assignee: Textron Innovations Inc.
    Inventors: Keith B Leffler, Guy Bernard, Randy Aloysius, Michael Logies
  • Conversion actuation systems and methods for tiltrotor aircraft
    Patent number: 11505313
    Abstract: A method of displacing rotors of an aircraft between a hover mode and an aircraft mode includes rotating a spindle drivingly connected to the rotors about a spindle axis to displace the rotors between the hover and aircraft modes until a component displaceable with the spindle abuts against a downstop of the aircraft and applies a load against the downstop. The method includes passively maintaining the component against the downstop to maintain the load applied against the downstop. An aircraft is also disclosed.
