Abstract:
A mixture composition of a cellulose ether made from raw cotton linters and at least one additive is used in a gypsum based dry mortar composition wherein the amount of the cellulose ether in the gypsum based dry mortar composition is significantly reduced. When this gypsum based dry mortar composition is mixed with water and applied to a substrate, the water retention, sag resistance, and workability of the wet plaster mortar are comparable or improved as compared to when using conventional similar cellulose ethers.
Abstract:
A marine propeller comprises a hollow hub body (11), a plurality of propeller blades (16) and a plurality of fastening devices (19, 21) for each propeller blade (16). Each fastening device includes a tension rod (19) and a flange member (22) mounted on the tension rod. The propeller blades (16) may be turnable for adjustment of the blade pitch angle ( alpha ) and lockable in a selelcted position by means of the fastening devices (19, 21). The flange member (22) has a plurality of recesses (23) and tensioning members (24) received in the recesses. These tensioning members (24) are extendable from the flange member (22) towards the hub body wall (14) to apply tension to the tension rod (19).
Abstract:
A self-adjusting variable pitch propeller (1) for marine use, comprising a central hub (2) with an axial propeller centre line (C) defining the rotational axis of the propeller and a plurality of blades (50, 50') extending radially from the hub. The hub (2) exhibits a central bore (3) arranged to receive a rotating drive shaft (S). Each blade (50, 50') is pivotally fixed to the hub (2) and pivotal about a respective blade pivot axis (P) which extends radially from the hub (2) through the respective blade (50, 50'). Each blade (50, 50') exhibits a leading edge (51, 51'), a trailing edge (52, 52'), a pressure side (54. 54') exhibiting a pressure side area and a suction side (53, 53') exhibiting a suction side area. The blades (50) are mechanically interconnected to freely transfer pivotal movement of each blade to all other blades. The pivotal axis (P) of each blade (50, 50') is positioned such that > 50% of the suction side (53, 53') area and of the pressure side (54, 54') area is arranged between the trailing edge (52, 52') and the pivotal axis (P) of the respective blade (50, 50').
Abstract:
A modular VTOL drone aircraft can include a primary processor, a plurality of propellers, one or more line replacement modules ("LRMs") and one or more line replacement units ("LRUs"). LRMs can include a fuselage, a center wing, two booms, two outer wings, two vertical tails, a horizontal tail, and/or an engine.

There is described a variable pitch boat propeller, comprising at least one internal cylindrical body and at least one blade pivoted to an external cylindrical body of the propeller constituted by one or more juxtaposed parts, and coaxial to the internal cylindrical body which is in turn fitted coaxially to a motor shaft and constrained thereto by means of a nut. The propeller also comprises retaining means, which cooperate with the internal cylindrical body of the propeller, to keep in assembled position, with interlocking, at least the internal cylindrical body, the external cylindrical body and the blades. The propeller is characterized in that it comprises means to constrain by coupling the nut, which allows the propeller to be constrained to the motor shaft, to the external cylindrical body of the propeller, or with at least a part thereof.
