Resumo
Este trabalho tem como principal objetivo desenvolver um sistema, utilizando microcontroladores, para automatizar o teste de Backlash em aviões de pequeno porte. O Backlash é uma folga presente entre a estrutura do avião e suas superfícies de controle, e é de extrema importância que essas folgas sejam constantemente testadas, quantificadas de forma que permaneçam dentro dos valores regulamentados por órgãos de controle. A principal função do sistema será realizar esses testes de maneira completamente automática, de forma que nenhuma intervenção manual seja necessária, a fim de mitigar possíveis erros que possam ocorrer durante o teste. Para isso, o sistema irá utilizar sensores e atuadores, controlados por um microcontrolador, que através de algoritmos seja capaz de quantificar o Backlash presente nas estruturas das aeronaves. Com a conclusão deste trabalho, criou-se um protótipo de teste composto por um modelo de uma asa em pequena escala, sensores e atuadores e uma interface amigável para o usuário.
This project has as the main objective the development of a system, using microcontrollers, for the automatization of the Backlash test in small aircraft. The Backlash is a clearance present between the aircraft structure and its control surfaces, and it is extremely important that these clearances be constantly tested and quantified to remain within the values regulated by control organizations. The main function of the system will be to perform these tests completely automatically, so that no manual intervention is necessary, in order to mitigate possible errors that may occur during the test. To achieve this, the system will use sensors and actuators, controlled by a microcontroller, which through algorithms will be able to quantify the backlash present in the aircraft structures. With the completion of this work, a test prototype was developed, consisting of a small-scale wing model, sensors, actuators, and a user-friendly interface.
