Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Im Gebrauchsmuster DE 20 2015 003 815 U1 wird ein senkrecht startendes Flugzeug (VTOL) beschrieben.In utility model DE 20 2015 003 815 U1 is a vertically-launched aircraft (VTOL) described.

Es handelt sich um ein Flugzeug mit elektrischen Mantelpropellern (EDF, Electric Ducted Fans) in den Flügeln. Die Flügel können geöffnet werden, wobei der entstehende Spalt entlang deren Längsachse, eine oder mehrere Reihen der Fans freilegt, welche dann vertikalen Schub bzw. Flug ermöglichen. Der Schub für horizontalen Flug wird separat erzeugt. Das Öffnungssystem der Flügel besteht aus einem Kern mit den Fans und ein oder zwei diesen teilweise umschließenden Halbschalen, die heruntergefahren werden können. Die Steuerung erfolgt über die Fan-Drehzahlen und die üblichen Steuerflächen. Durch eine Flügelpfeilung wird die Drehzahlsteuerung um die Querachse des Flugzeugs wirksam. Die Energieversorgung erfolgt über Akkus, Brennstoffzellen oder Range-Extender.It is an aircraft with electric ducted fans (EDF, Electric Ducted Fans) in the wings. The wings may be opened with the resulting gap exposed along its longitudinal axis, one or more rows of the fans, which then allow vertical thrust or flight. The thrust for horizontal flight is generated separately. The opening system of the wings consists of a core with the fans and one or two half shells that partially encloses these, which can be shut down. It is controlled by the fan speeds and the usual control surfaces. By wing sweeping, the speed control around the transverse axis of the aircraft is effective. The energy is supplied by batteries, fuel cells or range extenders.

Neuerungeninnovations

– Schwanzloses Flugzeug- Brushless aircraft

Das fehlende Leitwerk verkleinert das Trägheitsmoment des Flugzeugs um die Querachse, was die Steuerbarkeit im Senkrechtflug über die Fan-Drehzahlen verbessert. Auch die spezielle Ansteuerung eines Höhenleitwerks für den Senkrecht- und Vorwärtsflug entfällt. Umgekehrt entsteht vorerst ein typischer Nachteil schwanzloser Flugzeuge, die eingeengte Schwerpunktlage.The missing tail reduces the moment of inertia of the aircraft about the transverse axis, which improves the controllability in vertical flight over the fan speeds. The special control of a horizontal stabilizer for the vertical and forward flight is eliminated. Conversely, for the time being there is a typical disadvantage of brushless aircraft, the narrowed center of gravity.

- Schwenkflügel- Swing wing

Die Schwenkflügel ermöglichen eine variable Pfeilung und das Anlegen der Flügel. Die variable Pfeilung wird zur Trimmung der Auftriebsschwerpunkte der Flügel und der Fan-Anordung oder bei Fanausfällen verwendet. Dadurch werden die eingeengte Schwerpunktlage kompensiert, eine größere Flügelfläche für Fans nutzbar und die Sicherheit erhöht.The swing leaves allow variable sweep and the creation of wings. The variable sweep is used to trim the center of buoyancy of the wings and the fan assembly or fan failures. This compensates for the narrowed center of gravity, makes it possible for fans to use a larger wing area and increases safety.

- Horizontaler Antrieb- Horizontal drive

Der Antrieb für den horizontalen Flug erfolgt separat per Verbrennungsmotor, Gasturbine oder Elektromotor. Vorzugsweise wird ein Schubpropeller verwendet.The drive for the horizontal flight takes place separately by internal combustion engine, gas turbine or electric motor. Preferably, a pusher propeller is used.

- Öffnungssystem- Opening system

Analog des bei vielen Flugzeugen bewährten Landeklappen-Systems können Schienenführungen (Flap-Tracks) eingesetzt werden, um die Halbschalen vom Kern des Flügels herunterzufahren.Analogous to the flaps system, which has proven itself on many aircraft, rail guides (flap tracks) can be used to lower the half-shells from the core of the wing.

- Varianten- Variants

Sowohl unbemannte Ausführungen (UAV), Leichtflugzeuge (liegend/sitzend), als auch Verkehrsflugzeuge sind möglich.Both unmanned versions (UAV), light aircraft (horizontal / seated) and commercial aircraft are possible.

Das Ausführungsbeispiel zeigt ein Leichtflugzeug (PAV) und wird anhand der 1 bis 3 erläutert. Es zeigen:The embodiment shows a light aircraft (PAV) and is based on the 1 to 3 explained. Show it:

1 das Flugzeug im vertikalen Flug, 1 the plane in vertical flight,

2 das Flugzeug im horizontalen Flug, 2 the plane in horizontal flight,

3 das Flugzeug mit angelegten Flügeln. 3 the plane with attached wings.
