Abstract
348,788. Controlling air and water craft. FAIREY AVIATION CO., Ltd., Cranford Lane, Hayes, Middlesex, and MACMILLAN, N., Ivory House, Iver, Buckinghamshire. March 21, 1930, No. 9149. [Classes 4 and 114.] Pivoted control surfaces, which may or may not have dynamic balance portions, are provided with a counterweight adapted slightly to overbalance the surface by bringing its centre of gravity in advance of the pivotal axis. In an application to an aeroplane rudder, Fig. 2, a balance weight c is slidable on an arm b formed integrally with a balance portion e of the rudder a. The weight is clamped in position by a setscrew d. Applications to balanced and unbalanced elevators and to an unbalanced rudder are described. Fig. 5 shows a balance weight m, the leverage of which can be varied in flight. The weight m is clamped to an arm n carried by a worm wheel o rotatable on the elevator cross-spar t and adapted to be turned by a worm on a spindle p when this is rotated by means of a cable r.
