Abstract

196,410. Shaw, W. R. D. Feb. 1, 1922. No Parent granted (Sealing fee not paid). Planes and the like, arrangement and disposition of; steering and balancing; floats, arrangement of.-The tips of wings are formed of a number of winglets, overlapping or arranged one behind the other, with or without gaps, and on the same or different levels, each winglet being set at a negative angle of incidence. Some or all of the winglets may be set at lateral dihedral angles. They may also be set at different negative angles of incidence. In the arrangement shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the middle winglet a of three winglets is set at a negative lateral dihedral angle to the main wing. The rear winglet of a series may be pivoted to form an aileron. Fig. 4 shows an arrangement in which a winglet b is carried below the main portion of a wing to serve as a bracing member for two others. According to another modification the centre winglet c, Fig. 5, of three connected winglets is provided with a rod which rotates in a tube d in the main wing, the angle of incidence of the winglets being adjustable by the pilot through suitable transmission apparatus. In the modification shown in Fig. 6 two winglets f<1>, f<2> are hinged to the main plane and are rendered flexible by springs g<1> - - g<4> in the tie wires attached to the King-posts h<1>, h<2>. Fig. 7 shows three winglets s', s<2>, s<3> fixed, in conjunction with a wing-tip float i, on a seaplane wing j, the float being rigidly attached to the wing by struts k, m, n, and the winglets attached to the float by struts o, p. Specifications 6303/11 and 559/12 are referred to.
