Patent

CA 2510225

The invention relates to an aircraft comprising a fuselage (1) and at least two essentially hollow cylindrical lifting bodies (2, 3, 4, 5) which are applied to the fuselage (1) and comprise a plurality of rotor blades (8) which extend over the periphery of the lifting bodies (2, 3, 4, 5), the periphery of the lifting bodies (2, 3, 4, 5) being partially covered by at least one tail surface (49, 50). The aim of the invention is to provide an aircraft with an extremely high degree of manoeuvrability, compact dimensions and economy of fuel. To this end, the lifting bodies (2, 3, 4, 5) are driven by at least one drive unit and respectively comprise a cylindrical axis which is essentially parallel to a longitudinal axis (1a) of the aircraft.

L'invention concerne un aéronef comprenant un fuselage (1) et au moins deux corps de portance (2, 3, 4, 5) qui sont fixés sur le fuselage (1), présentent une forme sensiblement cylindrique et creuse et comportent une pluralité de pales de rotor (8) qui s'étendent sur le pourtour desdits corps de portance (2, 3, 4, 5). Selon l'invention, le pourtour des corps de portance (2, 3, 4, 5) est recouvert, au moins partiellement, par au moins une surface stabilisatrice (49, 50). L'objectif de cette invention est de concevoir un aéronef qui présente un degré de manoeuvrabilité extrêmement élevé et des dimensions compactes et qui en outre consomme peu de carburant. A cet effet, les corps de portance (2, 3, 4, 5) sont entraînés par au moins une unité d'entraînement et présentent respectivement un axe de cylindre qui est sensiblement parallèle à l'axe longitudinal (1a) de l'aéronef.
