Abstract

303,360. Rohrbach Metall-Flugzeugbau Ges. Dec. 31, 1927, [Convention date]. Addition to 274,085. Planes, construction of.-The central box-girder portion of a hollow metal aircraft wing has the webs of its longitudinal and transverse walls and the skin constructed with thin metal webs which develop oblique folds under stress as described in the parent Specification. Fig. 2 shows a wing in which the central portion forms a box-girder of which the webs x, 5, of the spars and ribs and also the upper and lower coverings are formed of thin metal developing oblique folds under stress. The webs are strengthened by channel members y, 7 secured to the webs and booms and the skin is supported by similar members. Holes 1, 8, 11 give access to the interior of the wing, the edges of the holes being reinforced and watertight covers being provided. These may be used also on the wings described in the parent Specification. Watertight hollow fairing pieces w are secured to the box-girder by hinges. The booms of the spars have several layers of metal of different thickness, the outer layers being the thickest. A wing with a single spar also is described, the front portion of the wing being formed as a torsion resisting girder. A wing with three spars also is described.
