AMPHIBIAN TRANSPORTATION MEANS

摘要

An amphibian transportation means comprises a carrying platform (1) and a base (2) with openings (3), forming a receiver (5) connected to the gas-air main of a gas-turbine engine (6) and to the air cushion (8) formed by the base (2) and by a flexible skirt (7). Inside the receiver (5) above the openings (3) of the base (2) are coaxially mounted profiled elements (9) rigidly interconnected so as to form a beam (11). The edges (10) of the profiled elements (9) and the edges (4) of the openings (3) are mutually spaced by a desired distance (14). On the concave surface of the profiled elements (9) may be mounted nozzles (12) connected to the fuel feeding system (13) of the gas-turbine engine (6).
