Canard-Type Aircraft TRIZ Cases
- Ground Effect Flight Vehicle With Rotatable VTOL Cruise Thrust
Rotatable engines and closable wing apertures let this ground effect craft switch from vertical lift to efficient cruise with less complexity.
- Lift-Body Multicopter Transition Without Redundant Thrusters
A lifting-body multicopter shifts from rotor lift to airfoil lift for smoother VTOL transition, lower energy use, and simpler control.
- Convertible Aircraft Rotor Layout for Hover-to-Cruise Transition
Distributed rotors with offset axes and independent thrust control enable stable hovering, forward flight, and safer mode switching.
- Wingtip-Positioned Propellers for Vortex Energy Recovery in VTOL Aircraft
Wingtip motor-generators support VTOL thrust while capturing vortex energy for onboard electric power.
- Tilting Hexrotor Configuration for Cruise Drag Reduction
This case shows how tilting forward, aft, and wing-mounted rotors reduces cruise drag and power needs while preserving hover recovery.
- Hybrid VTOL Drone Propeller Redundancy via Segmentation
Segmenting propellers into two parallel columns provides partial redundancy that maintains flight reliability while minimizing drag and weight penalties.
- VTOL Aircraft Propulsion Layout for Drag Reduction
Segmented propulsion units minimize parasite drag while maintaining vertical flight capability in VTOL aircraft.
- Hybrid VTOL Drone Propeller Spatial Arrangement
A hybrid VTOL drone positions propellers in 3D space to minimize aerodynamic interference and maintain flight balance.
- VTOL Drone Interchangeable Cabins and Hybrid Platform
A VTOL flying platform supports detachable passenger and cargo cabins for versatile aerial transport missions.
