There is a seemingly endless list of crucial components within an aircraft, and today we’ll be testing you on two of them – propellers and small gas turbines! Think you know your stuff? Find out today!
Barrel
Control
Low pitch stop
Pitchlock requlator
Microadjusting ring
Beta feedback shaft
Blade segment gear
Blade bushing
Stops the dome piston from increasing blade angle above 23.3
Prevents the blades from decreasing pitch if hydraulic pressure is lost
Prevents cam bearing rollers from bottoming out in the track slopes
Prevents the propeller from going into the beta range when the throttle is positioned in alpha range
Pitchlock control cam
Pitchlock ratchet piston
Externally threaded ring
Externally splined spacer ring
Beveled thrust washer
Stationary ratchet
Beta segment gear
Blade barrel shim
Roller shaft
Track slopes
Ball bearings
Roller bearings
Prevents the popeller from goin in to the beta range when the throttle is positioned in the alpha range
Limits cam travel and prevents the propeller from exceeding feather and reverse balde angles
Prevents the blades from decreasing pitch if an overspeed condition occurs
Transmits engine torque to the blades
Deicer cnotact ring holder
Hub mounting bulkhead
Front spinner
Afterbody
Valve housing
Low pich stop
Transfer bearing
Pitchlock regulator
Drives the main and standby pressure pumps
Controls operation of the pilot valve and serves as an electrical ground
Drives the rotation sleeve when the throttle is positioned in the beta range
Transmits blade angle movement to the valve housin and drives the propeller governor flyweights
