To provide control surface actuator assemblies, aircraft hydraulic systems including the same, and associated aircrafts and methods.SOLUTION: A control surface actuator assembly includes a control surface operatively coupled to a support structure, a torque-generating hydraulic actuator configured to apply a torque to pivot the control surface, and a variable horn radius (VHR) hydraulic actuator configured to vary a torque arm length for pivoting the control surface. In one example, an aircraft hydraulic system includes such control surface actuator assemblies, and an aircraft includes such aircraft hydraulic systems. In one example, a method of operating one or more control surfaces of an aircraft includes controlling a control surface by adjusting, with a VHR hydraulic actuator, an actuator moment arm length corresponding to the selected control surface and pivoting, with a torque-generating hydraulic actuator, the selected control surface.SELECTED DRAWING: None

    【課題】操縦翼面アクチュエータアセンブリ、操縦翼面アクチュエータアセンブリを含む航空機液圧システム、並びに関連する航空機及び方法。【解決手段】操縦翼面アクチュエータアセンブリは、支持構造物に動作可能に連結された操縦翼面と、操縦翼面の枢動トルクを印加するトルク生成液圧アクチュエータと、操縦翼面を枢動する際のトルクアーム長を変化させる可変ホーン半径(VHR)液圧アクチュエータと、を含む。一例では、航空機液圧システムはかかる操縦翼面アクチュエータアセンブリを含み、航空機はかかる航空機液圧システムを含む。また一例では、航空機の操縦翼面を動作させる方法は、VHR液圧アクチュエータを用いて選択された操縦翼面に対応するアクチュエータモーメントアーム長を調整すること、及びトルク生成液圧アクチュエータを用いて選択された操縦翼面を枢動することにより、操縦翼面を制御する。【選択図】なし
