Abstract: A simple, safe, and inexpensive flight control system in an aircraft. An anti-torque system for a rotary-wing aircraft has an airfoil with a first surface extending from a first trailing edge and a leading edge, and a second surface extending from a second trailing edge to join the first surface at the leading edge. The airfoil has a first moveable deflector panel pivotally coupled to the first trailing edge, and a second moveable deflector panel pivotally coupled to the second trailing edge. Means are provided to pivot the deflector panels in unison about their respective pivot axes to alter the direction of travel of the airflow downstream of the pivot axes over the surfaces of the deflector panels, thereby producing a lift in a direction perpendicular to the airflow to counteract the torque applied on the aircraft. The flight control system may be arranged within a fixed-wing aircraft.

Abstract: A fixed compliant wing system is provided that is coupled to a rigid spar and a rigid stopper. The fixed compliant wing system includes an actuator and at least two compliant rib structures coupled to the rigid spar. The compliant rib structures include an outer compliant contoured structure, a drive member coupled to the outer compliant contoured structure and including a guiding slot consisting of at least two interconnected portions. The guiding slot encompasses and is in a sliding arrangement with the rigid stopper. The drive member is further connected to the actuator. Portions of the outer compliant contoured structures are configured to independently deform when force is applied from the actuator to the drive member thereby moving the rigid stopper from a first portion to a second portion of the guiding slot. The fixed complaint wing system further includes a skin encompassing the compliant rib structures.

Abstract: A variable camber system for an aircraft may include a variable camber trim unit (VCTU) positioned between an inboard device and an outboard device. The inboard device and the outboard device may be mounted to at least one of a leading edge and a trailing edge of a wing. The VCTU may include a speed sum gearbox having an inboard shaft coupled to the inboard device and an outboard shaft coupled to the outboard device.

Abstract: An aircraft 1 with a spiral inducing assembly 2 which is capable of inducing the aircraft to travel in a continuous spiralling motion without the aircraft rolling. Two fins 6 and 17 are attached to a tube 3a that is able to rotate around the encircled part of the fuselage. The fins 6, 17 are able to rotate in a pivoting manner on the rotatable tube 3a with respect to the rotatable tube 3a, thereby changing their pitch relative to the longitudinal axis of the rotatable tube 3a. Rotation of the rotatable tube is achieved by using an electric motor 3b turning a wheel 3c. The wheel 3c makes contact with the rotatable tube. When pitched at an angle to the longitudinal axis in unison, both fins 6, 17 would exert a lateral force on the rotatable tube 3a. But as the rotatable tube is pushed sideways, it rotates, and hence the lateral direction of push constantly revolves, causing a spiralling motion of the aircraft when in flight. The rotation of one fin causes the rotation of another fin.

Abstract: A cross-section of a missile 1 with the missile attachment 2. The missile attachment consists of a cylindrical tube 3 which encircles part of the missile 1, and a protruding section 4 with a concave forward facing surface area 5. Shown also is a friction inducing moveable component in the form of a lever 11 pivotly attached to the missile by a bracket 12, such that the lever 11 can be pivotly moved an actuating mechanism which is in the form of an electric motor 13 using a rotor arm 14. When the lever is pivoted by the electric motor 13, using the rotor arm 14, a part of the lever is pressed through a hole 15 in the missile 1 so that the part of the lever that is pressed through the hole can reach the cylindrical tube. As the rotor arm 14 presses harder against the lever, the lever is pressed harder against the cylindrical tube. With the friction that occurs between the lever and the cylindrical tube, the rotation of the cylindrical tube relative to the missile can be controlled, so that the spiralling motion of the missile can be controlled. A computer 16 controls the action of the electric motor 13, and a battery 17 provides electrical power for the computer and the electrical motor.

Abstract: An improved control system for the aileron segment of a combined flap and aileron (flaperon) wherein the flaperon, supported, extended and retracted by conventional means, is described. It consists of a splined shaft rotatably mounted on an aircraft wing, its longitudinal axis being substantially aligned with the extension and retraction path of the flap. A transfer gear box slidably engages the splined shaft and is supported by a roller assembly engaging a support track which is mounted in the wing and runs substantially parallel to the splined shaft. The transfer gear box incorporates gears to transfer rotation of the splined shaft, via a second angularly adjustable shaft, to an aileron segment rotation mechanism located on the flaperon at the axis of rotation of the aileron segment. Rotation of the aileron segment is accomplished by rotating the splined shaft, regardless of the location or movement of the flap; this by virtue of the fact that the transfer gear box slides along the splined shaft, maintaining at all times a fixed distance between itself and the aileron segment rotation mechanism. A torque multiplier increases that torque when transmitted through small light-weight components, to the magnitude required for aileron actuation.
