Abstract

299,212. Hocke, H. Dec. 1, 1927. Steering and balancing.-In place of the usual ailerons an aeroplane is provided with flaps at its wing tips that can swing upwards but not downwards from their position in alignment with the wings, about axes which are either forwardly convergent or divergent. These flaps may be hinged to other flaps pivoted about convergent axes or about axes in the line of flight. The pilots operating levers are placed side by side so that either or both can be moved with one hand. The flaps are hinged at their upper surfaces. Fig. 10 shows a flap e<3> pivoted about a rearwardly convergent axis d<3>, to a second flap e<2> pivoted to the wing tip about an axis d<2> which may be in the line of flight or converge towards the machine centre line in the same or opposite direction to the axis d<3>. Cords h<11>, h<22> are led through guides in arms g<11>, g<22> on the flap e<2> to arms g<3>, g<4> on the flap e<3> until a stop t on the cord encounters the lever g<22>, whereupon further movement raises the flap e<2>. A stop u limits the upward movement of the flap e<2> and a stop u<2> limits the movement of the flap e<3> relative to the flap e<2>. Alternatively separate pairs of cables may be connected to the two flaps and to a common operating lever so that the two flaps move simultaneously through equal angles about their respective axes. The cables from opposite wing tips are led to two levers o, p, Fig. 8 on two concentric sleeves having levers o<2>, p<2> arranged side by side and horizontally beneath the pilot's seat. The flaps at the left side of the machine are connected to the right hand lever and those on the right to the left-hand lever. Existing machines may have a fixed triangular plane secured to the wind tip to provide an inclined axis for the flap. Alternatively the flaps may be above or below a single plane, or between the planes of a biplane.
