Abstract

784,929. Aircraft fuselages. ARMSTRONG WHITWORTH AIRCRAFT, Ltd., SIR, W. G. July 1, 1955 [Nov. 22, 1954], No. 33681/54. Class 4. In an aircraft provided with a bay, for a bomb or other missile, with an opening at the bottom which is closed by a pair of longitudinally-extending doors, the meeting edges of the doors are supported, both fore and aft of the bay, by levers movable angularly to open the doors, and the remote edges of the doors are guided so as initially to move to a position which is clear of the bay opening and then to slide up the outside of the body skin while the doors are being opened. Fig. 2 shows a crosssection of the bomb bay with the doors open. The meeting face of each door 13, 14 is connected at each end to the long arm of a bell crank lever 17, the short arm of which is connected, with lost motion, to the movable element of a jack 23. The remote edges of the doors may be supported between their ends as well as at their ends, e.g. at five places altogether. At each place of support the remote edge of a door carries a pin 27 adapted to ride in a cam slot 28 shaped so that the initial movement of the jacks will move the remote edge of the door just to the exterior of the body, whilst subsequent movement will cause the door to climb up closely adjacent the skin of the body.
