Patent

CA 2489285

Vertical take-off aircraft (1) has first (4) and second (17) lifting means (eg helicopter-type rotors, jets, turboprops) arranged in tandem, either above or outboard of ends (2, 3). Lifting means (4, 17) are independently tiltable, in multiple directions, by hydraulic rams (11, 13, 14, 16, 24, 26, 27, 29) to manoeuvre aircraft (1). In particular first lifting means (4) may be tilted in the opposite transverse direction to second lifting means (17) so as to alter the direction of flight. First lifting means (4) may be tilted by further hydraulic rams so that its rotor lies in a vertical plane for forward flight of aircraft (1).

Un avion à décollage vertical (1) comprend un premier (4) et second (17) moyen d'élévation (par exemple des rotors de type hélicoptère, des jets, des turbopropulseurs) disposés en tandem, soit au-dessus soit à l'extérieur des extrémités (2, 3). Les moyens d'élévation (4, 17) sont indépendamment inclinables dans de nombreuses directions grâce à des vérins hydrauliques (11, 13, 14, 16, 24, 26, 27, 29) afin de manoeuvrer l'avion (1). Plus précisément, le premier moyen d'élévation (4) peut être incliné dans le sens transversal opposé à celui du second moyen d'élévation (17) de manière à modifier le sens de vol. Le premier moyen d'élévation (4) peut être incliné par d'autres vérins hydrauliques afin que son rotor se trouve sur un plan vertical pour le vol vers l'avant de l'avion (1).
