UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HALLETT O. NORMAN, OF COUCH, OREGON.
FLYING MACHINE.
Application filed December 28, 1927. Serial No. 243,143.
arrange the parts that they normally lie in a plane in alignment with one of the planes of the craft and form extensions of such plane, with manually operated means for ti iting such parts downwardly to form with the plane a parachute-like device.
This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and specifically pointed out in the appended claim.
In describing my invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which Figure 1 is a side view of the improved craft.
Figure 2 is a front view.
Figure 3 is a similar view with the parts in operative position.
Figure 4% is a plan view.
Figure 5 is an enlarged sectional View.
Figure 6 is aview of one corner of the plane carrying the tips, with the tips in low cred position.
In these views, the numeral 1 indicates a plane which is attached to the aircraft shown generally at A, by the posts 2. This plane is of practically the same length as the ordinary planes of the craft. but is of greater width as it extends almost to the rear of the ship. Tips 3 are hinged to the edges of the plane 1, as shown at 1-. and arms 5 are connected with the ends of each tip, one part of each arm extending upwardly and another part downwardly. A pair of springs 6 is arranged adiacent each corner of the plane 1. These springs are connected by the rods 8 with the upper parts of the arms 5 and the rods and springs are supported by the posts 7. One spring of each of the front pairs of springs is connected to the arms 5 of the front tip and the other springs of these pairs are connected with the front arms 5 of the side tips. One spring of each of the rear pairs of springs is connected with the arms of the rear tip and the other springs of these pairs of springs are connected with the rear arms of the side tips. The springs hold the tips in horizontal position.
From the foregoing it will. be seen that when the parts are 'in normal position, the tips form extensions of the plane 1 andthe craft can be handled in the usual manner. If the craft should get out of control and start to fall, the pilot would. grasp the lever 9 and pull upon the same, which would cause the cables acting upon the lower parts of the arms 5 to swing the tips downwardly into the position shown in Figure 3, so to catch and hold the air under the plane 1 and thus give the effect of a parachute so that the craft would descend slowly and land without damage.
It is though from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of my invention will be readily apparent.
It is to he understood that I may make changes in the construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claim.
What I claim is In an aircraft, a horizontal plane connected therewith, tips forming extensions of the sides and ends of the plane, means for hingedly connecting the tips to the plane, arms connected with the ends of the tips and formed with upper and lower parts. springs connected with the plane and with the upper parts of the arms, cables connected with the lower parts of the arms, a hand lever arranged adjacent the pilots-seat and to which the cables are connected and stop means for the tips for limiting their movement from a horizontal position to an inclined position.
In testimony whereof I afiiX my signature.
HALLETT O. NORMAN.
