Abstract

111,747. Wade. H., (Wilkinson, E.). Jan. 11, 1917. Floats for aerial machines.-Relates to hydro-aeroplanes having a main central float, as B, and two smaller side floats D, D<1> secured abreast the rear portion of the main float. According to the invention, the side floats D, D<1> have their bottoms d<1>, Fig. 6, flared outwards, as shown. The floats are of stream-line form, tapering forward and aft and with curved tops. The central float has a V-shaped bottom and a step which is vented through vertical tubes B<1>. The floats may be made of multiply wood with interposed layers of cloth and glue. The huils are supported by diagonal bracing and stanchions and are subdivided into watertight compartments. The central float has a longitudinal bulkhead also. The bottoms of the side floats are warped upwards towards the front. These floats are also disposed nearer to the centre of the wings than to the tips thereof so as to engage the water before the wing tips. The rear inboard edges of the side floats are made substantially vertical, as indicated by dotted lines; this shape prevents the flow of water over the decks of the float when the machine is turning on the water.
