Abstract

580,053. Propelling ships and aircraft. MASSEY, H. P. March 21, 1944, No. 5263. [Classes 4 and 114] In order to increase the magnus lifting or propulsive effect of a rotating member, fluid is circulated through the interior of the member and discharged from openings in the periphery thereof. As applied to an aeroplane, Fig. 1, a hollow cylinder 12 is mounted at the leading edge of the wing 10, and air is supplied to the interior of the cylinder by a fan, or by the propeller of the aircraft, and discharged through radial or inclined slots 25 in the cylinder wall. The cylinder may be mounted near the mid section of the wing instead of at the leading edge, and may be of uniform diameter throughout its length or flared towards its outer end. As shown in Fig. 6, the invention may be utilised to augment the lift of helicopter rotor arms, a fan 70 supplying air to the rotor head from whence it passes to the interior of the arms and is discharged through slots 62 in the peripheral surface thereof. The rotor arms are rotated about their longitudinal axes by means of gear wheels 64 which mesh with gear teeth 66 on the rotor head. The air may be circulated through the rotor arms by means of fans at the outer ends thereof. When applied to the propulsion of ships the rotating member is mounted with its axis vertical.
