Abstract

486,823. Trimming aircraft. DORNIER METALLBANTEN GES., and DORNIER, C. June 18, 1937, No. 17021. Convention date, Aug. 3, 1936. [Class 4] In a wing unit for aircraft in which a rigid main wing and at least one rigid or movable auxiliary wing are spaced a fractional part of the main wing chord from the main wing, the trailing edge of the main wing and the trailing edges of the auxiliary wings, other than the last one, if more than one auxiliary wing be provided, are each provided with one or more members displaceable in an upward or downward direction and extending over the length of the respective wing or part thereof. In one form, a main wing 1 and an auxiliary wing 2 are provided respectively with strips 4, 5 riveted, soldered or welded thereto. The strips 4, 5 are deformable but not resilient. In a modification, the auxiliary wing is disposed below and to the rear of the trailing edge of the main wing and in such a case the trailing edge is formed as a pivoted flap adjustable prior to flight through screw-and-nut mechanism. In a further modification, a pivoted flap 19 is adjustable by displacement of a cam slot 22. Specification 135,829, [Class 4], is referred to.
