FLYING VEHICLE AERODYNAMIC CONFIGURATION Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: aerodynamic configurations of flying vehicles; manufacture of new flying vehicles and modification of existing flying vehicles. SUBSTANCE: flying vehicle includes case, wing and tail unit. Wing panels are mounted for rotation relative to case. Trailing edge of each wing panel is provided with additional control aerodynamic surface for rotation about axis parallel to axis of rotation of wing panel. Axles of wing panels are mounted without mechanical linkage with outlet of control actuators. Additional control aerodynamic surfaces are mechanically linked with outlet of control actuators of these surfaces. Tail unit panels are mounted for rotation relative to case and are mechanically linked with outlets of tail unit control actuators. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency. 1 dwg
