摘要:
A rotor shaft support and drive arrangement comprises a bearing damper including a number of interconnected oil cylinders circumferentially distributed about a rotor to dampen the vibration thereof. A flexible diaphragm coupling is provided for transmitting a driving torque. The flexible diaphragm coupling provides improved misalignment capability.

A twin turbine engine helicopter has a two-stage main reduction gearbox, the input stage having a speed reduction ratio exceeding 5.5:1, into an epicyclic gear train second stage ratio about 6:1 for approximately 30:1 or higher overall ratio output to the main rotor. In various embodiments, the first stage uses face gears, or bevel gears, with a reduction greater than 5.5:1 and a second stage epicyclic gear train using single or double row helical or spur gears. The first stage gears are straddle mounted in the housing.

A constant velocity drive mechanism of a rotary-wing aircraft rotor, comprises a torque splitting differential mechanism, comprising a driving disc integral in rotation with a rotor mast and connected to each of two driven discs either side of the driving disc, by a least one connecting pin hinged to each of the discs by one of three ball joint connections. Each of the driven discs is connected to a hub of the rotor by at least one of two driving devices, each of which is also hinged to the hub, so as to drive the hub in rotation about a geometrical axis which can be inclined in all directions about the axis of rotation of the mast.
摘要:
A propeller related vehicle in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention is described as a helicopter having an airframe housing a pneumatic motor mechanism for powering a main propeller attached to a main drive shaft. The helicopter further includes a horizontal stabilizing means attached between the main propeller and the main drive shaft, which permits the main propeller to freely pivot about the main drive shaft independently from the airframe. As such when the main propeller is rotating and the main propeller begins to pitch, the rotating main propeller has a centrifugal force created by the rotation thereof and will tend to pivot about the horizontal stabilizing means in a manner that offsets the pitch such that the helicopter remains in a substantially horizontal position.

A propeller related vehicle in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention is described as a helicopter having an airframe housing a motor mechanism for powering a main propeller attached to a main drive shaft that extends vertically through the airframe and for powering a tail rotor. The helicopter further includes a horizontal stabilizing mechanism attached between the main propeller and the main drive shaft, which permits the main propeller to freely pivot about the main drive shaft independently from the airframe. As such when the main propeller is rotating and the main propeller begins to pitch, the rotating main propeller has a centrifugal force created by the rotation thereof and will tend to pivot about the horizontal stabilizing mechanism in a manner that offsets the pitch such that the helicopter remains in a substantially horizontal position. In addition various main propeller configurations may be employed that provide additional self-stabilization.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a drive unit for a model helicopter comprising a fuselage in the central portion of which both the drive unit and a rotor shaft 1 are supported, characterized in that the drive unit comprises a horizontally arranged turbine 2 having a turbine shaft 3 which is extended in the inlet portion of the turbine 2 and connected to a transmission 4.
