Abstract
418,468. Aircraft landing - gear. ARMSTRONG WHITWORTH AIRCRAFT, Ltd., SIR W. G., and LLOYD, J., Whitley, Coventry. Nov. 8, 1933, No. 31066. [Class 4.] A retractable landing member is connected to an aeroplane by two struts hinged to one another and also pivotally mounted on the aeroplane in such manner that the pivotal axes can be brought into alignment to facilitate swinging the landing-member and struts together about the common axis. As shown, a landing-wheel 12 is carried by a pair of oleolegs 14 connected by a bridge 15 and pivoted to brackets 16 in recesses in the underside of an aircraft wing. Radius rods 17 are pivoted at their lower ends to the legs 14 and at their upper ends to a block 18 carried by a screwed spindle 19 rotatable through a chain 21 and sprocket-wheel 20 from the cockpit or elsewhere to bring the rods 17 into alignment with the legs 14 before the wheel 12 is retracted by a cable 22 from the cockpit. Hinged flaps 24 are provided for closing the major portion of the wheel recesses. The legs 14 may be pivoted to a block, in which case the wheels are swung up in a forward direction. The wheels when retracted may be housed in the fuselage, or in fairings attached to its sides.
