Abstract
612,279. Aircraft control. ENGINEERING & RESEARCH CORPORATION. May 23, 1946, No. 15594. Convention date, June 15, 1945. [Class 4] In aircraft, having hinged ailerons 2, 4 on the wings, normal control means 20 for differentially moving the ailerons about their hinge axes C-C to provide lateral control and also means for moving the ailerons about their hinge , axes to similar drooping positions to produce a high lift effect, there is provided a vertical rudder 14, which upon differential operation of the ailerons from either their normal undeflected positions or from similar drooping positions, is moved to oppose adverse yawing moments due to differential operation of the ailerons. Provision may be made for the movement of the rudder to be greater in the case where the ailerons are differentially moved from similar drooping positions. The rudder is moved by a rod 32 connected to one end of a pivoted lever 30 with its other end connected to a rod 28 offset from control lever 20, which is rotated about a vertical axis for differential operation of the ailerons; a bell-crank lever 34 integral with lever 30 differentially operates the ailerons through rods 36 connected through J-levers 38, Fig. 2, to rods 42 for turning the ailerons. A separate lever 50 is turned rearwardly to set both ailerons in drooping positions for highlift, a lever 62 being turned by rod 52, connected to lever 50, and actuating the ailerons through rods 64 connected to triangular connecting members 40 which are pivoted to J- levers 38. A central high-lift flap 6 is operated by a rod 60 connected to a crank 58 moved at the same time as lever 62. The increased rudder movement for the case where the ailerons are differentially moved from similar drooped positions is obtained by connecting rudder rod 32 by an adjustable pivoted lever (not shown) to rod 30, the adjustment being effected when the control rod is moved rearwardly for obtaining high-lift controls from the ailerons. U.S.A. Specification 2,110,516 is referred to.
