Abstract
432,555. Rotary wings for aircraft. KAY GYROPLANES, Ltd., KAY, D., and DYER, J. W., 109, Newington Road, Edinburgh. Jan. 23, 1934, No. 2387. [Class 4] A blade or wing for the blade or wing system of a rotating-wing aircraft has its trailing edge composed wholly or in part of sections movable longitudinally relative to each other so that the trailing edge is capable of shortening under the influence of compressive forces. The sections are constituted by wooden blocks 7 which taper from front to rear and each block is secured by two biscuits 9 to the trailing edge of two adjacent ribs 3. The adjacent and slightly spaced edges of the blocks 7 are inclined from the trailing edge towards the rest of the blade and the wooden blocks are covered by metallic sheaths 10 which have their adjacent edges inclined from the trailing edge towards the tip of the blade and which are displaced relative to the blocks 7 so that the spaces between the blocks are covered. The wing assembly is covered with fabric (not shown). In a wing of all-metal construction the blocks 7 and biscuits 9 may be made of metal and the relatively movable members may be arranged to telescope into each other.
