SECTION 63-10 - ENGINE/GEARBOX COUPLINGS


DESCRIPTION

Engine Drive Shaft And Gimbal Assembly

The drive shaft/gimbal assembly provides the drive and connection between the engine and MGB. (Fig. 1)
The drive is provided by a steel drive shaft that connects a splined joint with the engine power turbine output shaft. Dual O-ring
seals provide a sealing function at the splined joint.
A bolted flange joint to the pinion gear of the engine input module, connects the other end of the drive shaft to the gearbox.
The drive shaft is provided with a flexible coupling to compensate for misalignment due to engine installation or engine torque
variation. (Fig 4)
The support mounting function for the engine is provided by a steel torque tube, which is connected to the engine casing at one end
by a flange and through a steel crosshead to the gearbox input module at the other.
An extension from the input module casing is shaped to give two mounting lugs 180° apart.
The torque tube is similarly shaped to provide a second pair of mounting lugs.
When assembled through the crosshead, the torque tube lugs are positioned between the input module lugs to give a lug spacing of
90°.
The steel crosshead is positioned at the plane of the mounting lugs and connected to each of the four mounting lugs with a bolt and
barrel nut. (Figs. 2&3)
Each connection to the crosshead includes a special bush that of steel and rubber, to provide some flexibility in the connection.
The gimbal installation, a universal joint, compensates for any misalignment due to installation or MGB/engine relative movements.

SECTION 63-20 - GEARBOX


DESCRIPTION
The Main Gearbox (MGB) is a three stage reduction gearbox, with 2 interchangeable engine input cases installed either side.
They receive the power from the engine drive shafts and perform the first speed reduction through a spiral bevel gear set.
The gears also change the rotational axis toward the MGB body.
The input modules incorporate a sprag type freewheeling unit, which allows for MGB disengagement in case of engine failure or
shut down.
For ease of maintenance, the freewheel units are easily accessible for inspection or replacement on the helicopter, without
necessitating any major disassembly of adjacent systems/components.
The input modules provide attachment to the engine gimbal assembly, counter their static and dynamic loads and also counter the
inertia loads generated by the engines. (Figs. 4 & 5)
A low pressure switch is located at each engine input case.
The input pinion bearing of the engine input case, is temperature monitored through a bearing temperature sensor (thermocouple).
The output pinions from the engine input cases drive a collector gear and this combination gives the second reduction stage, and
changes the direction to a vertical output.
The collector gear output shaft meshes with five planetary gears that provide the third stage reduction and drive the output mast on
which the main rotor hub will be mounted.
Through the three stages the input speed of the engine shafts, at 21000 rpm, is reduced to a rotor drive of 296 rpm.
An NR sensor is installed on the front of the main housing. (Fig. 31)
The MGB also provides an output drive to the tail rotor, and a number of accessories.
The tail rotor drive take-off pinion is directly driven by the collector gear and also includes a simple bevel gear that drives the oil
cooler fan.
The housing of the tail rotor drive take-off pinion also provides the support for the rotor brake actuator. The brake calliper is
attached to a flange that is bolted to the MGB casing. (Fig. 9)
The drive flange for the tail rotor drive shaft also permits the attachment of the rotor brake disc.
On the housing of the tail rotor drive take-off is also installed an azimuth sensor which works in conjunction with the accelerometers
located on the gearbox to provide the usage of the rotating parts for HUMS.
The collector gear also drives Hyd PUMP 4, the two lubrication system pumps and, if fitted, the ECS compressor.
The input pinions on the engine input cases provide the drive Hyd PUMP 1 and PUMP 2 and to the two alternators, if fitted.
Three brackets that are bolted to the main case provide the lower mounting points for the three main rotor actuators.

Page 26 of 94
AB/AW139 PWC - PT6 67C/D Main Rotor Drive

A low oil level switch is installed in the bottom case of the main gearbox. There is also a sight glass on the front side of the bottom
case; it shows two marks: MAX and MIN. The sump holds approximately 18 litres of oil.
Each pump supplies the oil to the circuit through a pressure relief valve (adjusted to 700 KPa). This valve, if the flow of oil is too
much, sends the unwanted oil back to the sump.
After the pressure relief valves the oil flows through the check valves. Then the oil from the two pumps is mixed and passes through
the oil filter and the oil cooler.
The lubricating circuit supplies the oil to the components that must be lubricated through the oil jets.
There are 29 oil jets in the main gearbox group:

• 17 oil jets in the main case (Fig 13)

• four oil jets in the top case

• three oil jets in the left input shaft module and three in the right input shaft module

• one oil jet in the cover of the left input shaft module, one oil jet the cover of the right input module.

OIL FILTER (Fig. 17)


The oil filter is installed on the upper module and the oil cooler on the main case of the main gearbox.
The oil filter has a by-pass valve and a differential pressure switch. The filter element will be by-passed if the oil pressure through
the filter decreases more than 170 ±28 KPa (filter clogged)

LUBRICATION PUMP (Fig. 16)


Two lubrication pumps are installed on the rear of the main gearbox, in symmetrical position.
Each lubrication pump is of the positive displacement type, with multiple elements to optimize the tip speed of the rotors. This is to
decrease the risk of cavitation even in the most critical flight condition.
A spiral bevel gear (18 teeth) is installed on the drive shaft of the pump, and a key keeps it in position. A locknut, a lock washer and
a retaining ring attach the spiral bevel gear to the drive shaft. This spiral bevel gear (18 teeth) engages the collector gear (97 teeth)
(second reduction stage) and drives the lubrication pump. Three nuts and their washers attach the pump to the main case of the
gearbox.

OIL COOLER FAN (Fig 13A)


The oil cooler has a thermostatic bypass / relief valve for the oil. This valve prevents the flow of the oil through the oil cooler when:

• The temperature of the oil is less than 80 °C.

• The difference in the pressure at the oil input and oil output is higher than 190 KPa (a restriction is present in the heat
exchanger).

The mechanically driven fan decreases the temperature of the oil in the ducts of the oil cooler.

SECTION 63-40 - INDICATING


DESCRIPTION
The main gearbox (MGB) assembly is driven by two engines and drives the main rotor shaft at about 296 RPM and the tail rotor.
At each MGB input, a spring type freewheeling unit is installed allowing override of each engine in case of engine shutdown or
failure, so that the rotor is continuously driven by the remaining engine.
The MGB is monitored by the following sensors (Figs 27 & 28) :
• 3 chip detectors with a Chip Detector Power Unit (DEBRIS WARNINGS SYSTEM)
• 1 oil level sensor
• 1 oil pressure transducer
• 1 oil temperature transducer
• 1 oil filter switch
• 1 oil temperature switch
• 2 oil pressure switches
• 2 thermocouple sensors (Bearing)
• 1 magnetic speed sensor (NR).

The DWS installed on the AW139 is formed by the 5 chip detectors, the power unit chip detector box, a data bus ARINC 429 to
MAUs and a control panel for the chip burner.
The purpose of the power unit chip detector box (Fig. 30) is:
• To sense the detected ferrous debris introduced into the lubricating oil of the transmission system by wear or failure of gears,
bearings and other oil wetted parts.
• To monitor the status of the five channels to determine if a short condition (CHIP) is being detected, if there is an open
condition (FAULT) or if it is a normal condition and reports this to the MAU over the ARINC 429 interface.
• To burn off the small particles. The burning pulse shall be delivered in sequence to the sensors having the chip.
• To self-test the internal circuitry and chip sensors automatically.
• To test the chip sensors manually via an external switch on the box. The test consists of a continuity test resistor of 30 KΩ
that is provided inside each sensor across pins A and B as close as possible to the detector gap.

OPERATION
On the MGB three chip detectors are fitted: two in the sump and one close to the mast bearing.
When a particle is detected by any of the sensors, the relevant caution alarm is generated.
For small particles a burning attempt can be performed by the crew through the manual use of a push-button fitted on the
miscellaneous control panel.
If the signal is extinguished (burning successful), the relevant information of small particle captured together with the date and time,
sensor name, number of burning attempts are stored in the NVM.
The debris warning system can be tested before flight by the operator through a switch located on the Power Unit Chip Detector
box.
The oil level sensor is an optical sensor type which provides an electrical signal when the oil level in the reservoir and sump is
below a predetermined minimum level.
The MAUs generate the caution alarm on the display.
During the pre-flight check, the flight crew uses the test panel to perform the MGB oil level test.
The oil pressure transducer is a strain-gauge type that provides an analogue input to the MAU NO.1.
When the pressure drops below a predetermined value, the warning / caution alarm will be represented on the MFD.
The oil temperature transducer is a thermo-resistance type that provides an analogue input to the MAU N.1.
When the temperature rises above a predetermined value, the warning alarm will be represented on the MFD.
An oil filter with a differential pressure sensor, microswitch type, senses the differential pressure between the filter input and output
and the MAUs generate this caution alarm that is represented on the MFD.
The oil temperature switch senses the temperature of the MGB oil circuit and when it reaches a predetermined value, the MAU
NO.2 will generate a warning alarm on the MFD.
The two oil pressure switches are installed to sense the low pressure of the MGB and when one of the oil sensor pressure switch
pressure switch senses the minimum value, the MAUs generate the caution alarm on the MFD.
When the pressure value reaches the minimum value and the two oil pressure switches sense this minimum value, the warning
alarm will be represented on the MFD.
There are two thermocouple sensors installed on each MGB drive bearing 1 and 2.
The sensing probes are metal sheathed type K thermocouples and are held nearly in contact with the measured part by means of a
helical spring.
When the operating temperature range increases to a predetermined value the MAUs generate the caution alarm on the MFD.
The NR speed sensor is a triple coil magnetic speed sensor and provides 3 independent frequency outputs directly related to the
speed of the rotor gear to the MAUs and EECs.
The NR value is represented on the triple tachometer on the MFD and the PFDs.

ROTOR BRAKE ASSEMBLY (RBA)


The RBA, installed on the Main Gearbox, converts hydraulic pressure to a braking force. The RBA keep the rotors from turning
when the helicopter is parked and to assist in stopping the rotors upon engine shutdown. It is also used during parking to prevent
the wind-milling action of the rotors in windy conditions.
The RBA produces a braking action when the lined opposing piston is actuated hydraulically. This clamping acts on a rotating disc
bolted to the tail rotor drive shaft, take-off flange at the MGB. Hydraulic pressure to operate the RBA is provided by a RBCM.
The RBAA is installed to move the calliper "OFF" the rotating disc.
The RBA consists of one calliper assembly and one calliper support, and includes the following parts: the support, the linkage to
mate the RBAA, two wear ablative brake pads, four pistons, four pistons stops, hydraulic connections and bleed valves to remove
air from the hydraulics cavities of the RBA calliper, a four position switch to detect the brake pads correct reset status, one electrical
connector for the position switches.
The calliper support incorporates the housing for all the components and a clevis for the calliper installation on the axis.
The calliper support has two functions: to transfer the braking torque to the MGB structure and to allow the Up / Down movement of
the calliper.
The calliper is articulated on the hinge pin of the fix support (MGB flange support).
A calliper clevis is fitted with two conical splines on the calliper axis.

ROTOR BRAKE RESERVOIR ASSEMBLY (Fig. 43)


The RBRA has a capacity of 80 cm3 and is used to store the fluid to compensate for fluid thermal expansion, small external leakage
and mainly to provide the pressure head to the RBCM and RBA at ground.
The minimum level reservoir capacity is 24 cm3

The RBRA has the following parts:


• a fluid tank to store the fluid;
• a transparent area to check the fluid level;
• a filling port to refill the circuit;
• a breather port open to atmosphere to vent the RB circuit;

• an hydraulic port;

• an filter inside the reservoir is used to prevent external leakage from the cap.
RBCB ROTOR BRAKE CONTROL BOX
The RCBC is provide to manage the RBS operations:
• Control signals coming from the RBCL;

RBA Calliper UP/DOWN position.


• Engine OFF position.
• RBS Pressure condition.
• RBA pucks reset position.
• RBAA position for the end stroke switches
The RBCB is installed on the ceiling of the passengers cabin.
Using the provided inputs, it generates the outputs to drive the external RB components and provides the required signals to the
MAU.

OPERATION
The system is manually controlled through a RBCL (Rotor Brake Control Lever) positioned in the cockpit which generates the
required hydraulic pressure.
Hydraulic pressure to operate the rotor brake is supplied by a RBCM (Rotor Brake Control Module) installed on the helicopter upper
deck.
The RBCL (Fig. 41) has the following operational positions:

• OFF (RELEASE)
• PUMPING (Forward detent and backward stop)
• BRAKE (fuII stroke stop position).

The stroke between “PUMPING” and “BRAKE” position has two functions:
• Normal braking:
• To provide a pressure of 5 bar to the braking pistons in order to have contact between pucks and rotor disc.
• To pressurize the system at 26-28 bar for dynamic braking by filling the accumulator.
• Parking:
• To perform a pumping action by moving the Iever, between the “PUMPING” and “BRAKING” positions, to increase the
pressure in the circuit and in the accumulator up to a maximum parking pressure of 46.5 bar.
The RBCL and RBCM are connected via a control rod.
The RBA) provides the braking action when the Iined opposing pistons are actuated hydraulically. This produces a clamping action
on the rotating disc bolted to the tail drive shaft take-off flange at the main gearbox.

The RBAA moves and maintains the RBA calliper on its operative “UP” or “DOWN” positions.

The RBPI controls the RB hydraulic pressure and calliper status.


The RBCB provides electrical control of the RB functions.
During flight the RB calliper is maintained in the “DOWN” position, far from the RB disc. The RB calliper moves to the “UP” position
only when the helicopter is on the ground with WOW and the engines in OFF condition.
The “UP / DOWN” calliper movement, is managed by a Rotor Brake Relay Box.
Different helicopter electrical signals are used for the braking action; these signals are provided by:

• RCBL lever position


• RBAA UP/DOWN position
• Engine Mode Selector
• Landing Gear WOW (Weight-On-Wheel)

An electrical shut-off valve installed in the RBCM prevents inadvertent pressurization of the RBA when the helicopter is in flight.
On the ground no pressurization is generated in the RB system unless the engines are OFF.
The rotors stop is reached in 11-15 sec approx. (DYNAMIC braking).
An accumulator in the RBCM maintains the PARKING pressure for at least 8 hours, when starting from a pressure of at least 40
bar. lf hydraulic pressure decreases while parked, it is possible to restore the needed parking pressure by the manual action on the
RBCL, without limitation.

OPERATION
In Flight (Fig 44)
• The RBCL is in “OFF” position;
• No hydraulic pressure is present;
• The Calliper is in the down position;
• The RBCM circuit shut-off valve remains open (energized). In this condition the RB line is connected to the reservoir /
atmosphere.
• The indicator CALIPER DOWN is lit (green light) on the RBPI.
On Ground: With One Or Both Engines In Flight Or In GI Condition
• The RBCL is in “OFF” position;
• No hydraulic pressure is furnished;
• The Calliper is in down position;
• The SOV is still open (energized).
The indicator CALIPER DOWN remains lit on the RBPI.

On Ground: After (Both) Engines Shut-Down


• The RBCL is in the “OFF” position;
• No hydraulic pressure is present;
• The calliper is raised automatically
• The SOV is closed (de-energized).
The RBPI changes the status of the indicators display as follows:
• Switch-on of the CALIPER DOWN and CALIPER UP indications in flashing mode during the transition phase;

TRAINING NOTES ONLY NOT TO BE USED AS A REFERENCE


Page 86 of 94

• Lighting of the indication light CALIPER UP in fixed mode (when the calliper is in brake position) and switch off of the
CALIPER DOWN indication.
• LOW PRESS indication lit.

On Ground: During A Braking Action


The rotor braking is carried out by the pilot pushing the RBCL forward.
With both engines OFF, as soon as the RBCL is moved from the “OFF” to the “BRAKE” position, the RB is operated as follows:
• The mechanical outlet valve is closed;
• Pucks are pushed against the rotating disc to generate the braking action;
• The accumulator is partially filled up (incomplete charge)
The normal pressure generated by a full stroke of the Iever is 26-28 bar (with new pucks and disk).
The LOW PRESS indication, on the RBPI, is switched off.
The digital display shows the pressure value applied to the brake.
The ROTOR BRAKE ON advisory indication is lit on the CAS.

If the RBCL is moved from the OFF position with one or both engines in flight:
• No hydraulic pressure is applied;
• The Calliper is in down position;
• The SOV is still open (energized).
The indicator CALIPER DOWN remains lit on the RBPI.
The ROTOR BRAKE FAIL caution indication is lit on the CAS.

On Ground: “Parking” Braking (Fig. 46)


PARKING condition (accumulator fully charged) is performed through a RBCL pumping action (backward and forward motion) in the
pumping area until:
• the hydraulic pressure in the circuit is > 40 bar;
• the RBCM accumulator is fully charged.
The LOW PRESS indication, on the RBPI, is switched off.
The digital display shows the pressure value applied to the brake.
The ROTOR BRAKE ON advisory indication is lit on the CAS.

In this condition the RBCM accumulator provides hydraulic power to stop the rotors from turning for a minimum of 8 hours.
When the pressure reduces below 20 bar, the LOW PRESS caption of the RBPI is lit and the pressure in the circuit can be restored,
by additional pumping action.
If pumping action on the RBCL is beyond 40 bar, the maximum pressure of 62 bar can be reached, value at which the system relief
valve is opened.
A HIGH PRESS yellow caption is alighted on the RBPI when the pressure overcome 50 bar.

On Ground: Braking Release


The braking release is carried out by the pilot by moving the RBCL backwards.
As the RBCL is moved to the “OFF” position the RB is operated as follows:

• the mechanical outlet valve is opened;

• pucks are released;

• the accumulator is discharged.

The indicator CALIPER UP remains lit on the RBPI.


The LOW PRESS indication, on the RBPI, is lit.

On Ground: After Engines Start

• The RBCL is in “OFF” position;

• No hydraulic pressure is present;

• The SOV is opened (energized);

• The calliper is lowered automatically.

The RBPI changes the status of the indicator displays as follows:

• Switch-on the CALIPER DOWN and CALIPER UP indications in flashing mode during the transition phase;

TRAINING NOTES ONLY NOT TO BE USED AS A REFERENCE


Page 88 of 94
AB/AW139 PWC - PT6 67C/D Main Rotor Drive

• Lighting of the indication light CALIPER DOWN in fixed mode (when the calliper is in down position) and switch off of the
CALIPER ENGAGED indication.

R/B Operating Limitations


The RB is subject to the following operating limitations:

• NORMAL BRAKING - during normal braking the rotor brake may be applied at 40% RPM rotor speed or less.

• PARKING - Starting for press > 40 bar, 8 hours minimum.
