Abstract

423,752. Controlling aircraft. HAWKER AIRCRAFT, Ltd., and CAMM, S., Canbury Park Road, Kingston-on-Thames. Oct. 16, 1933, No. 28599. [Class 4] A control mechanism for aircraft comprises a crank member 10 contained substantially in the thickness of the wing, tail-plane, &c., and is partially rotatable in a plane perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to that of the wing, the crank being connected to a lever 5 projecting from the hinge axis 3 into the thickness of the wing so that virtually no part of the device is external to the profile of the wing and control surface. As shown applied to aileron control gear the crank 10, Fig. 1, is pivoted on a shaft 11 mounted in the wing 1 and is connected by link 7 to the lever 5 fixed to the spar 3 of the aileron 2. A balance 6 for the aileron may be attached to the arm 5 and the aileron is operated through pulley 12 and cables 13. The connection between the crank 10 and arm 5 may be such as to diminish the rate of movement of the aileron toward one extremity or the other of its movement. In Fig. 4 the crank 20 is connected to the arm 5 by a link 18 or the end of the arm 5 may be forked and engage a crank-pin on the crank 20.
