Description
HELICOPTERE AUTOMOBILEAUTOMOTIVE HELICOPTER
Ce véhicule est capable de décoller et atterrir verticalement, de voler et de circuler sur la route sans avoir besoin d'être modifié pour passer d'un usage à l'autre. This vehicle is capable of taking off and landing vertically, flying and traveling on the road without having to be modified to switch from one use to another.
Ce véhicule peut circuler sur la route grâce à ses dimensions proches de celles d'une voiture.. Sa faible largeur est rendue possible par l'emploi d'un rotor (1) de petit diamètre pour assurer sa sustentation. Ce rotor est caréné (2) pour améliorer son rendement. C'est en fait une simple hélice à pas fixe. Il n'a pas besoin des mécanismes compliqués d'un rotor d'hélicoptère puisqu'il n'est utilisé que pour le décollage, l'atterrissage et le vol à faible vitesse. This vehicle can travel on the road thanks to its dimensions close to those of a car .. Its small width is made possible by the use of a rotor (1) of small diameter to ensure its lift. This rotor is streamlined (2) to improve its performance. It's actually a simple fixed-pitch propeller. It does not need the complicated mechanisms of a helicopter rotor since it is only used for takeoff, landing and low-speed flight.
Après le décollage l'avancement de l'appareil se fait non pas par inclinaison du rotor mais grâce à une hélice propulsive (3) qui est donc située à l'arrière de 'appareil. After take-off, the machine is advancing not by inclination of the rotor but by means of a propellant propeller (3) which is therefore located at the rear of the apparatus.
L'hélice propulsive et le rotor sont actionnés par le même moteur (4) grâce à un système de transmission (5) qui permet de passer la puissance progressivement de l'un à l'autre. Quand le régime de l'hélice augmente celui du rotor diminue et la sustentation due au rotor diminue aussi. Elle est remplacée par la sustentation obtenue par la vitesse croissante de l'appareil grâce principalement à ses fonds plats en forme de skis (6+ 7). A grande vitesse toute la puissance du moteur est transmise à l'hélice de propulsion et le rotor ne tourne plus ou presque plus. Toute la portance est assurée par le fuselage de l'appareil. The propeller and the rotor are actuated by the same motor (4) through a transmission system (5) which allows the power to be progressively passed from one to the other. When the speed of the propeller increases that of the rotor decreases and the lift due to the rotor also decreases. It is replaced by the lift obtained by the increasing speed of the aircraft thanks mainly to its flat bottoms in the form of skis (6+ 7). At high speed all the power of the engine is transmitted to the propulsion propeller and the rotor does not rotate or almost no more. All the lift is provided by the fuselage of the aircraft.
Le moteur pourrait aussi actionner le rotor et l'hélice par un arbre unique. Ils tourneraient donc en permanence tous les deux. Chacun serait alors équipé d'un mécanisme de pas variable qui permettrait de les faire agir à la demande. The engine could also drive the rotor and propeller through a single shaft. They would both be running permanently. Each would then be equipped with a variable step mechanism that would allow them to act on demand.
Un rotor de petit diamètre ayant un moins bon rendement qu'un grand rotor, il est nécessaire de l'entourer d'un carénage soigneusement réalisé. Les pales seront étudiées pour offrir une portance élevée. Le moteur sera d'une puissance supérieure à celu] d'un hélicoptère classique pour compenser le moindre rendement du petit rotor. Inccnvénient qui se 25 transformera en avantage pour obtenir une vitesse de vol élevée. L'absence de grand rotor et le carénage profilé du petit rotor devraient favoriser ces performances, le maître couple de l'appareil étant à peu près égal, voire inférieur à celui d'un avion. A small diameter rotor having a lower efficiency than a large rotor, it is necessary to surround it with a carefully made fairing. The blades will be studied to offer a high lift. The engine will be of greater power than a conventional helicopter to compensate for the smaller rotor efficiency. This disadvantage will turn into an advantage for achieving a high flight speed. The absence of large rotor and the streamlined fairing of the small rotor should promote these performances, the master torque of the aircraft being approximately equal to or even lower than that of an aircraft.
Commandes de vol: Au décollage, à l'atterrissage et en vol stationnaire, les mouvements de lacet, de tangage et de roulis sont assurés par des volets (8) situés sous le rotor et donc soufflés par celui-ci. Les volets commandant le lacet servent aussi d'anti-couple quand le rotor tourne. (Le couple généré par le petit rotor est moins important que sur un hélicoptère classique).En vol ces mouvements sont obtenus par des dérives classiques (9) situées en queue de l'appareil et d'un ou deux volets pour contrôler le roulis. Ces dérives peuvent aussi être soufflées par de l'air pris sous le rotor afin d agir aussi bien en vol stationnaire qu'en vol normal. Flight controls: On take-off, landing and hovering, yaw, pitch and roll movements are provided by flaps (8) located below the rotor and thus blown by it. The shutters controlling the lace also serve as anti-torque when the rotor rotates. (The torque generated by the small rotor is less important than on a conventional helicopter). In flight these movements are obtained by conventional drifts (9) located at the tail of the aircraft and one or two flaps to control the roll. These fins can also be blown by air taken under the rotor to act both hovering and normal flight.
Pour simplifier le pilotage, les commandes sont couplées afin de fonctionner dans toutes les phases de vol. Le moteur est situé derrière le rotor. Son poids tend à équilibrer le poids des passagers situés à l'avant. Une masse d'équilibrage pourra être déplacée selon le chargement 40 de l'appareil. To simplify control, the controls are coupled to operate in all phases of flight. The engine is located behind the rotor. Its weight tends to balance the weight of the passengers in the front. A balancing mass may be moved according to the load 40 of the apparatus.
Route: sur la route le rotor et l'hélice ne tournent plus.te moteur entraîne un alternateur qui alimente un ou plusieurs moteurs électriques, lesquels actionnent les roues. L'appareil peut avoir trois ou quatre roues. Il dispose des commandes nécessaires à un véhicule routier et de tous les accessoires de sécurité obligatoires. Road: on the road, the rotor and the propeller do not rotate. This motor drives an alternator that supplies one or more electric motors, which drive the wheels. The device can have three or four wheels. He has the necessary controls for a road vehicle and all the mandatory safety accessories.
