Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of aircraft, in particular to a radial jet type rotary wing aircraft. Background Art

[0002] The main types of aircraft currently in use are fixed-wing, multi-rotor, and helicopters. Fixed-wing aircraft refers to aircraft that fly in the atmosphere with forward thrust or pulling force generated by a power unit and lift generated by the fixed wings of the fuselage; multi-rotor aircraft is a special rotorcraft with three or more rotor shafts, which drives the rotors through the rotation of the electric motor on each shaft, thereby generating lift thrust. The total pitch of the rotors is fixed, and unlike ordinary helicopters, it is variable. By changing the relative speed between different rotors, the size of the single-axis propulsion force can be changed, thereby controlling the trajectory of the aircraft; helicopters rely on engines to drive the rotors to provide lift and hold the helicopter in the air. The above three types of aircraft all have their use defects.

[0003] Fixed-wing aircraft are affected by weather conditions. Severe wind, rain, snow, fog and other weather conditions will still affect the safety of aircraft take-off and landing. Fixed-wing aircraft require limited take-off and landing sites and require a longer runway for take-off and landing, which places high demands on take-off and landing conditions. Multi-rotor aircraft have lower endurance and carrying capacity; helicopters are greatly affected by airflow and have lower stability. Summary of the invention

[0004] One purpose of the present invention is to provide a radial jet autogyro aircraft, which utilizes a horizontal centrifugal jet device at the end of the wing to inhale, compress, and eject air to generate radial torque, thereby driving the aircraft itself to rotate at high speed and thus generating lift on the wings of the aircraft.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this plan is as follows:

[0006] A radial jet autogyro wing aircraft comprises a cabin, a power unit and wings. The power unit is horizontally arranged around the cabin and connected to the cabin through the wings. The power unit generates radial torque acting on the wings to generate lift, so that the aircraft takes off.

[0007] Preferably, the power device is a centrifugal jet device, which includes an air compression cabin and an air diversion cabin, and a plurality of the centrifugal jet devices are interconnected and evenly distributed to form a circular ring surrounding the cabin body.

[0008] Preferably, a first air inlet and a first air outlet are arranged on the bulkhead of the air compression cabin, and an upper edge of the first air outlet is lower than an upper edge of the first air inlet;

[0009] A motor and a centrifugal impeller are arranged inside the air compression cabin; the motor shaft of the motor is arranged perpendicular to the horizontal direction, and the centrifugal impeller is horizontally installed on the motor shaft.

[0010] Preferably, the air guide cabin is provided with a second air inlet and a second air outlet; the second air inlet is through-connected with the first air outlet.

[0011] Preferably, multiple centrifugal jet devices are interconnected, and according to the airflow direction after the centrifugal jet devices are working, the second air outlet of each centrifugal jet device is staggered and overlapped with the first air inlet of the centrifugal jet device that follows it, and the second air outlet of each centrifugal jet device is arranged below the first air inlet of the air compression cabin of the centrifugal jet device that follows it, and multiple centrifugal jet devices are connected to form a ring; the jet direction of the centrifugal jet device when working is the tangent direction of the ring, and the jet directions of multiple centrifugal jet devices are all in the same tangent, so that the aircraft as a whole can spin at high speed, driving the wing to generate lift.

[0012] Preferably, the aircraft comprises a plurality of wings, and the wings comprise a connecting shaft and an auxiliary plate, wherein the connecting shaft is used to connect the air compression cabin and the cabin body of the aircraft, and the connecting shaft passes through the auxiliary plate.

[0013] Preferably, the aircraft further comprises a supporting component, and the supporting component is arranged below the cabin.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this program are as follows:

[0015] This solution is different from existing aircraft. It uses a horizontal centrifugal jet device at the end of the wing to inhale, compress and eject air to generate radial torque, driving the aircraft itself to rotate at high speed, thereby generating lift for the wings of the aircraft.

[0022] The implementation method of this solution will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this solution, rather than an exhaustive list of all the embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments in this solution and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0023] The terms "first", "second", etc. (if any) in the specification and claims and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the terms used in this way are interchangeable where appropriate so that the embodiments described herein can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0024] After research, the inventor of the present application found that, different from the existing technology for providing lift for aircraft, a jet device is used as a power device to drive the aircraft itself to rotate at high speed through radial torque to generate lift.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 A radial jet autogyro aircraft shown includes a cabin 1, a power unit 2 and wings 3. The power unit 2 is horizontally arranged around the cabin 1 and connected to the cabin 1 through the wings 3. The power unit 2 generates a radial torque acting on the wings 3 to generate lift, so that the aircraft takes off.

[0026] In one embodiment, the power device includes multiple centrifugal jet devices, each of which includes an air compression cabin 4 and an air guide cabin 5; a first air inlet 6 and a first air outlet (not shown in the figure) are relatively arranged on the cabin wall of the air compression cabin 4, and the first air outlet is located below the opposite side of the first air inlet, and the upper edge of the first air outlet 6 is lower than the upper edge of the first air inlet; a motor 8 and a centrifugal impeller 9 are arranged inside the air compression cabin 4; the motor shaft of the motor 8 is arranged perpendicular to the horizontal direction, and the centrifugal impeller 9 is horizontally installed on the motor shaft; the air guide cabin 5 is provided with a second air inlet (not shown in the figure) and a second air outlet 7; the second air inlet of the air guide cabin 5 is through-connected with the first air outlet of the air compression cabin 4.

[0027] In one embodiment, the second air inlet of the air guide cabin 5 of a centrifugal jet device is integrally formed with the first air outlet of the air compression cabin 4, and the second air inlet overlaps the first air outlet up and down; the second air inlet is arranged below the first air outlet.

[0028] In one embodiment, the cabin body 1 has a regular symmetrical geometric shape, such as a cylindrical cabin body with a round cap on the top, and a plurality of centrifugal jet devices surrounding the cabin body 1 are evenly distributed circumferentially and connected to each other to form a ring.

[0029] In one embodiment, multiple centrifugal jet devices of an aircraft are interconnected, such as the air diversion cabin in the first centrifugal jet device is connected to the air compression cabin of the second centrifugal jet device, and the air diversion cabin in the second centrifugal jet device is connected to the air compression cabin of the third centrifugal jet device, and multiple centrifugal jet devices are connected in this order; according to the direction of airflow after the centrifugal jet devices are working, the second air outlet 7 of each centrifugal jet device is staggered and overlapped with the first air inlet 6 of the centrifugal jet device that follows it, and the second air outlet 7 is arranged below the first air inlet 6 of the air compression cabin 4 of the centrifugal jet device that follows it. Multiple centrifugal jet devices are interconnected in this way to form a ring, and the cabin 1 and the air compression cabin 4 are connected as a whole by multiple evenly distributed wings 3. When the motor 8 in the power unit 2 drives the centrifugal impeller 9 to rotate at high speed, the centrifugal impeller 9 sucks air from the first air inlet 6 of the air compression cabin 4, compresses the air, guides it through the air guide cabin 5, and then ejects it horizontally from the second air outlet 7 at high speed. Since the jet direction is the tangent direction of the circular ring, and the directions of the gases ejected from the multiple air guide cabins 5 are all tangents in the same direction, the aircraft as a whole can spin at high speed around a certain center, so that the wings on the aircraft generate lift, allowing the aircraft to take off.

[0030] In one embodiment, the motor 8 is installed at the first air inlet 6 in the air compression cabin 4 and is in a horizontal position with respect to the jetting direction of the second air outlet 7 of the air guide cabin 5 .

[0031] In one embodiment, the aircraft includes multiple wings 3, which are evenly distributed around the cabin 1; the wings 3 include a connecting shaft and an auxiliary plate, and the air compression cabin 4 and the cabin 1 are connected via the connecting shaft; the auxiliary plate of the wing 3 can rotate along the connecting shaft relative to the cabin 1.

[0032] In one embodiment, an electronic control device and a power supply are provided inside the cabin 1; the electronic control device receives remote control signals to control the start and stop, speed, etc. of the motor of the centrifugal impeller 9 in the air compression cabin 4. A landing gear 10 supporting the aircraft is also provided below the cabin 1.

[0033] The aircraft of the present application is different from the jet device of the traditional aircraft. The centrifugal impeller is installed horizontally for use, which can avoid the great wind resistance generated by the impeller installed facing the flight direction during the travel of the traditional jet device, thereby reducing the rotation speed. At the same time, it can make full use of the same-direction torque generated by its own horizontal centrifugal impeller when rotating at high speed, and superimpose it with the rotation of the aircraft itself, so that the aircraft can rotate at high speed with the highest efficiency, forming a gyro effect, obtaining extremely high stability, and effectively avoiding the influence of meteorological problems such as wind, rain, snow, and fog. Due to its own vertical take-off and landing, there is no need to know the conditions of the flight take-off and landing site. At the same time, because it is a disc in a high-speed rotating state, when the aircraft collides, it can release force on the colliding object along the tangent direction of its own circular ring, greatly reducing the damage caused by the collision accident.

[0034] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not limitations on the implementation methods of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in the relevant field, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is impossible to list all the implementation methods here. All obvious changes or modifications derived from the technical solution of the present invention are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
