Abstract

1,055,776. Air cushion vehicles. WESTLAND AIRCRAFT Ltd. Oct. 14, 1965 [Oct. 15, 1964], No. 42033/64. Heading B7K. A flexible skirt for an air cushion vehicle comprises inner and outer flexible walls 11, 12 secured at their upper ends to the vehicle body to communicate with an air supply duct and at their lower ends being connected by spaced diaphragms 13 to form peripheral jet nozzles. The skirt is held in its extended form by an internal wall 14 which, as shown, comprises a plurality of contiguous inflatable tubes 16 secured at their upper ends to an air supply duct 15 and at their lower ends to the diaphragms 13. Alternatively, the wall may comprise rubber-covered polyurethane foam.
