  1. TH-67 Systems Study Guide (Power Train, Electrical, Fuel Systems, and Weight and Balance)

  2. 1. State the purpose of the power train system? • Provides drive for the tail rotor • Supports the rotor head • Provides a means of transmitting engine power to the main and tail rotor systems • All of the above

  3. 2. State the purpose of the freewheeling unit/sprag clutch assembly? • It prevents main drive shaft failure by acting as a freewheeling unit when the rotor is subject to high “G”s • The sprag clutch, in the freewheeling unit, provides a disconnect from the engine enabling autorotational forces to drive the transmission, tail rotor, and all transmission mounted accessories in the event of an engine failure • The sprag clutch transfers transmission RPM (inflow of air through the rotor system) to the freewheeling unit to drive the tail rotor • B and C

  4. 3. What is the lubrication source for the freewheeling unit? • The freewheeling unit is lubricated by the engine • The freewheeling unit is lubricated by the hydraulic to oil heat exchanger behind the transmission • The freewheeling unit is a dry system thus it uses ambient air to cool down • The freewheeling unit is lubricated by transmission oil

  5. 4. Does the freewheeling unit have a chip detection capability? • No, the chip detector is not electrically wired for a “Caution Light” indication in the cockpit, thus is not consider a chip detection system • Yes, but the chip detector is not electrically wired for a “Caution Light” indication in the cockpit • There is no chip detector installed in the freewheeling unit (no gears) • Yes, the chip detector is electrically wire to the cockpit for a “Caution Light” indication to alert the pilot

  6. 5. What does the main drive shaft connect ? • It is a flexible coupling that connects the freewheeling unit to the transmission input drive • It connects the transmission to the rotor head • It connects the #5 drive shaft to the tail rotor gear box • None of the above

  7. 6. Why is the main drive shaft a flexible coupling? • Flexible is better • The engine is going to provide the transmission with different kinds of power settings, thus the need for a flexible and adaptable coupling is required • The movement between the transmission (a floating pylon mount) and the freewheeling unit mounted on the engine (a rigid mount) requires a flexible coupling • It must be flexible because of the high vibration from the tail rotor that are transmitted back to the main rotor during autorotation

  8. 7. In the event of an engine failure, what drives the tail rotor in autorotation? • The main drive shaft transfers transmission RPM (inflow of air through the rotor system) to the freewheeling unit and crosswinds provide drive to the tail rotor • The main drive shaft transfers transmission RPM (inflow of air through the rotor system) to the freewheeling unit to drive the tail rotor • The only thing that drives the tail rotor is the engine and if engine failure occurs the helicopter will enter an uncontrolled spin to the right • Autorotate when over a safe landing area

  9. 8. What mounting technique is used to secure the transmission to the airframe? • A rigid mounting technique • An isolation mounting technique (it is not rigidly mounted) • Rubber mount technique • By the drag pylon technique (spike knock)

  10. 9. What is the purpose of the pylon support links? • To mount the transmission to the airframe and bear the aircraft’s weight • To support the flight control pylon and all related equipment • To absorb negative “G”s during descents grater than 2,000 FPM • All of the above

  11. 10. What effects does a focused pylon mount have on the transmission? • It rises the CG of the transmission. This reduces the transmission’s movement • It moves the CG of the transmission 5 inches forward. This reduces the transmission’s movement • It moves the CG of the transmission 5 inches aft. This reduces the transmission’s movement • It lowers the CG of the transmission. This reduces the transmission’s movement

  12. 11. Why is the transmission mounted with a 5º forward tilt? • To provide a more desirable attitude during a hover • To provide a more comfortable attitude in forward flight • To provide a forward tilt of the main rotor to assist the pilot on forward flight at airspeeds above 100 KIAS • The tilt is 5º aft rather than forward and is to maintain a more comfortable attitude in forward flight

  13. 12. Why is the transmission mounted with a 1.25º tilt to the left? • Because of the position of the cyclic no matter if the pilot is right or left handed, it is designed for a right handed person. The tilt is built for those left handed pilot to reduced their constant cyclic input • There is no left or right tilt on the main transmission system • To help compensate for translating tendency • To help compensate for dissymmetry of lift

  14. 13. What does a rubber isolation mount provide? • It provides for lateral centering and shock absorption • It provides for longitudinal centering and shock absorption • There is no rubber on the transmission system due to high temperatures • A and B

  15. 14. What does the drag link’s round pin and the pylon stop’s square hole provide? • Centering of the transmission during installation • It provides for fore/aft/side to side movement to the desired limits • Stops high vibration frequency coming down the cabin • Positive travel limits for the pylon

  16. 15.

Above 71º C the bypass valve closes and the oil must be cooled.

  19. 18. How is the transmission oil cooled? • There is and outer case of the transmission that is filled with water and serves as heat exchange, from there goes back to the oil cooler • A flexible duct/hose assembly transports cooling air from the engine oil cooler housing to the transmission oil cooler where some air about to cool the transmission oil is scavenged to cool the hydraulic reservoir • It is cooled by ambient air • The transmission is splash lubricated and the oil heat is dissipated as it splashes reducing the heat on the oil
