LAURENT FLYING APPARATUS Filad July 14. 1928 2 s t s 2 Patented June 24, 1930 PATENT oFF c EMILE MARIUS LAURENT, OF ST.-MANDE, FRANCE v FLYING APPARATUS Application filed July 14,. 1928, Serial No. 292,685, and in France August 4, 1927.
This invention relates to an absolutely novel flying apparatus which is characterized by a special arrangement which will be hereinafter described.
This apparatus, the characteristic arrangements of which remain in all cases the same, may be realized under the most various forms of construction, one of saidconstructions being shown, by way of example, in the accompanying drawing:
Fig. 1 is a rear-elevation of the flying apparatus.
Fig. 2 is a side-elevation of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a cross-section on larger scale of one of the turbines.
Fig. 4 shows in side-elevation a modified form of construction of the flying apparatus.
Fig. 5 is a top plan view of Fig. 3.
Fig. 6 is a cross section showing the turbines on larger scale.
Fig. 7 shows a modification.-
In order to make the drawing more clear certain elements or axles are somewhat displaced from their real position. The apparatus designed to be carried on the back, shown in the first form of construction in \Figs. 1, 2 and 3, comprises a cuirass a of moulded aluminium which covers the back fromsthe hips to the shoulders and is lined with felt-and fitted with straps so that it can be fixed on the body. This cuirass is.
extended at the lower end by a frame I) to which two stirrupts I) are fixed on which the feet have to be placed. The upper portion of the cuirass comprises a head-protector ti and two reinforced shoulder-pieces a, a which project laterally and are designed to permit the arrangement of a ball ]01I1t.
v At the end of each shoulder-piece a movable v supporting plane or wing c is arranged which is connected to the shoulder-piece by means of a ball-joint c and can adopt, under the action of the arms (the bands being inserted into the handles d) any inclined position in the direction ofmovement from the horizontal to the vertical.
On the sides of the cuirass a and of the frame frames f of steel tubes are mounted over which canvas is stretched to form the supporting planes.
At about of the height of the cuirass a and on the rear ofthe same a motor 9 is mounted which consists of an absolutely oval-case and of two V-shaped cylinders, said case carrying a crank-shaft I). projecting over each side and carrying ateach end a pinion. These two pinions drive a transverse shafti through the intermediary of two gear-wheels keyed on this shaft.
The transverse shaft i carries on each end a turbine j and at its centre in the case a spur-wheel which, by convenient teeth, ro-
tates the shaft is of the propeller Z, arranged above the cuirass a. conveniently supported by means of ball bearings and supports, has a hollow upper portion with which engages a second shaft carrying a ram and comprising a clutch controlled by a cable to operate from below the right movable wing.
A housing on serves for accommodating several accessory elements.
Each turbine is constituted by several extensible blades 2, for example four, which are mounted on a hub rigid with the shaft 2'. This hub is eccentric with regard to a guide or circular rail 3 on which bear, under the action of springs having the tendency to develop said blades, the rollers 4 which are carried by the same.
Fig. 3, in .which the arrow-line 5 indicates the direction of movement and the arrowline 6 the relative direction of the streamlines with regard to the turbine, shows that the repulsing is complete only at the desired moment without the production of a contrary reaction, owing to this fact.
The apparatus of the secondform of construction, Figs. 4, 5 and 6, comprises the same essential elements and is constructed according to the same characteristics with a somewhat stronger motor.
Fdr the cuirass is however substituted an oval very comfortable fuselage and the apparatus, instead of being carried on the back, is mounted on an apparatus 0 for landing.
.The stability is ensured by two stationary supporting planes [9, p, fitted with two double turbines g, g, and of two small movable- This propeller-shaft k, i
planes,
supporting planes or wings 7-,?" designed for permitting alterations of inclination.
The elements of the motor a accessible by hand are covered by a plane 2? sli smaller than the Whole supporting planes 1), p. Under this plane 3 the pilots seat and the driving elements are arranged.
The frame n, which forms the extension of the fuselage, carries at its rear-part a vertical rudder o and a horizontal rudder m.
For the special turbine propellers with Vertical axles as shown in ig. 7 might be substituted.
1. A flying apparatus, comprising in combination a cuirass to be fixed on the body to cover the back and the head,a propeller, two movable lateral planes the angle of inclination of which may be altered at will, means for operating by hand said lateral two lateral stationary supporting planes, two supporting turbines with eccentrio extensible blades, oval case arranged on said cuirass and driving said turbines and said propeller.
