LACINA, DECEASED, LATE OF LENEY, SASKATCHEWAN, CANADA, BY MER- TINA LACINA, ADMINISTRATRIX, F LENEY, SASKATCHEWAN, CANADA FLYING MACHINE Application filed March 27, 1929. Serial No. 350,349.
The present-invention relates to a flying machine and has for its prime object to provide a structure of this nature capable of great maneuver ability and easy of control.
Another very important object of the invention resides in the provision of a flying machine of this nature which is comparatively simple in its construction, strong and durable, thoroughly efficient and reliable in use and operation, and otherwise well adapted to the purpose for which it is designed.
With the above and numerous other objects in View as will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in certain novel features of construction, and in the combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinaftermore fully described and claimed.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a top plan view of the flying machine embodying the. features of the invention,
Figure 2 is an enlarged detail sectional view" taken substantially through one of the propellers,
Figure 3 is a perspective view-of one of the blades of the propeller,
Figure 4 is a detail section through the connection of one of the blades with the gears in the gear'casing,
Figure 5 is an elevationof one of the gear casings, and
Figure 6 is a View thereof with plate removed.
Referring to the drawing in detail it will be seen that the numeral 5 denotes a stream line fuselage to the sides of the tail of which extend wing structures 6 with openings 7 therein and in these openings 7 are rockably mounted ailerons 8 controlled by suitable means 9 from the seat 10 in the cockpit of the fuselage. To the sides of the fuselage 5 adjacent the cockpit there extends frames 11* which are braced from the nose of the fuselage by'staves 12. I
A suitable prime mover such as an internal combustion engine 32 is disposed in the fuselage and rotates the gears 34 in mesh with the gears 33 on the inner ends of the shafts .14.
From the above detailed description it will be seen there has been deviseda flying machine with propeller structures on the sides thereof wherein the propellers may be articulated about their own axes so that when moved in an orbit about the shaft 14 they will function to control the aeroplane in thedesired maneuver to bemade.
The structure is exceedingly compact and convenient in its arrangement of parts and possesses simplicity and easy to control.
It is thought that the construction, operation, utility and advantages of the invention will be quite apparent. It is desired to point out that a universal joint 42 is disposed be tween each trunnion 24 and the respective gear 26 associated therewith because it is desirable that the blades of each propeller diverge outwardly from each other.
This universal joint 42 is housed to the casing 43 slotted as at 44 to accommodate trunnions 24.
The present embodiment of the invention has been disclosed in considerable detail merely forthe purposes of exemplification since in actual practice it attains the features of advantage enumerated as desirable in the statement of the invention and the above description.
It .will be apparent that changes in the details of construction, and in the combination and arrangements of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed or sacrificing any of its advantages.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
1. A flying machine of the class described including a fuselage, frames extending from the sides of the fuselage, shafts journaled in the fuselage and'the frame, spokes radiating from the outer end of the shaft, blades journaled in the ends of -thespokes, means for supporting the inner ends of the propellers about the shaft, a casing keyed on said shaft at the inner end thereof, gearing in the easing, means for operating the gearing, and means for operatively connecting the inner ends of the blades with the gearing.
2. A flying machine of the class described including a fuselage, frames extending from the sides of the fuselage, shafts journaled in the fuselage and the frame, spokes radiating from the outer end of the shaft, blades journaled in the ends of the spokes, means for supporting the inner ends of the propellers about the shaft, a casing keyed on said shaft at the inner end thereof, gearing in the casing, means for operating the gearing, and means for operatively connecting the inner ends of the blades with the gearing, said blades diverging outwardly from each other and said means including universal joints.
3. A propeller unit for a flying machine comprising a shaft, a plurality of spokes radiating from adjacent one end of the shaft, a casing adjacent the other end of the shaft, a sleeve rockable in the casing about the shaft, a gear on the sleeve, a plurality of gears journaled in the casing and operatively connected with the first mentioned gears, a plurality of blades rockable in the ends of the spokes and operatively connected wit-h the second mentioned gears.
4. A propeller unit for a flying machine comprising a shaft, a plurality of spokes radiating from adjacent one end of the shaft,
the second mentioned gears, universal joints operatively connecting the inner ends of the blades with the second mentioned gears.
- 5. A propeller unit for a flying machine comprising a shaft, a plurality of spokes radiating from adjacent one end of the shaft, a casing adjacent the other end of the shaft, a sleeve rockable in the casing about the shaft, a gear on the sleeve, a plurality of gears journaled in the casing and operatively connected with the first mentioned gears, a plurality of blades rockable in the ends of the spokes and operatively connected with the second mentioned gears, universal joints operatively connecting the inner ends of the blades with the second mentioned gears, a crank on the sleeve for rocking the same.
In testimony whereof, I afiix my signature.
