摘要： The present disclosure relates to a vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft (100) and a propulsion system (600) thereof. The propulsion system (600) comprises a primary rotor (108) configured to couple to an airframe (102) and oriented to generate a vertical thrust relative to the airframe (102), a drivetrain (626) operably coupled to an engine (602) and configured to mechanically drive the primary rotor (108), and a plurality of tiltable secondary rotor assemblies (114) configured to be disposed about the primary rotor (108). The primary rotor (108) comprises a plurality of collective-only variable-pitch blades. Each of the plurality of tiltable secondary rotor assemblies (114) may have a secondary rotor (116) and an electric motor (608) to drive the secondary rotor (116). An electric generator (606) operably coupled to the engine (602) or to the drivetrain (626) may be configured generate electric power for each electric motor (608) of the plurality of tiltable secondary rotor assemblies (114). Each of the plurality of tiltable secondary rotor assemblies (114) is configured to tilt between a vertical configuration (200b) and a horizontal configuration (200a) as a function of a phase of flight of the VTOL aircraft (100).

摘要： Presented are corner attachment assemblies for cargo suspension systems, methods for making/using such assemblies, and aircraft equipped with underbody suspension systems using corner attachment assemblies for securing payload containers. Mounting assemblies are presented for securing objects to tether cables of suspension systems. A representative cargo mounting assembly includes a pair of shoulder clamps, each of which includes a flap that projects from a cup. Each shoulder clamp flap mechanically attaches, e.g., via a flap through-hole with a structurally reinforcing grommet, to a respective segment of a tether cable of a cargo suspension system. In addition, each shoulder clamp cup includes multiple noncoplanar, mutually adjoining contact surfaces. For instance, the cup may have a tetrahedral geometry with three mutually orthogonal, triangular-shaped contact surfaces. Each contact surface attaches, e.g., via a high-strength adhesive, to a respective surface of a corner of a cargo container.

摘要： Fixed-wing short-takeoff-and-landing aircraft and related methods. The aircraft comprise an airframe comprising a rear wing assembly and a forward wing assembly positioned forward of the rear wing assembly, a rear plurality of blowing rotor assemblies operatively coupled to the rear wing assembly that are configured to blow air across the rear wing assembly to induce lift in the rear wing assembly, and a forward plurality of blowing rotor assemblies that are operatively coupled to the forward wing assembly and configured to blow air across the forward wing assembly to induce lift in the forward wing assembly. The methods comprise inducing lift in a forward wing assembly by blowing air across the forward wing assembly with a forward plurality of blowing rotor assemblies and inducing lift in a rear wing assembly by blowing air across a rear wing assembly with a rear plurality of blowing rotor assemblies.
