Abstract

A propeller locking mechanism for an aircraft includes a mounting ring having a locking extension with an aperture. A solenoid is configured with a solenoid pin which interacts with a first arm of a lever. The lever includes a pivotable second arm configured with a spring and locking pin. The second arm is able to pivot and insert the locking pin into the aperture of the locking extension on the mounting ring. The spring biases the locking pin in the locked orientation. Upon sufficient motor torque, the spring force is overcome allowing the locking pin to be removed from the aperture and the mounting ring to be unlocked.
