发明名称 Direct orientation vector rotor
摘要 A direct orientation vector rotor (DOVER) for use on rotary wing aircraft includes a gear set for multidirectional rotor orientation based on the spherical coordinate system; an inclination mechanism, wherein the rotor is moved from the 0° horizontal position to an inclined position; a rotational turret, wherein the rotor is moved along the azimuth and wherein the inclination mechanism is housed; and a motion-adapted gear lubrication housing.

主权项 1. A direct orientation vector rotor (DOVER), comprising; (a) a rotor; (b) a mechanism for mobile torque application that drives a strut that is an articulated rigid mast and is regulated by a drive shaft assembly that includes a structural and functional power transference mode, and where the mechanism for mobile torque application providing torque to the rotor; (c) an inclination mechanism, the inclination mechanism configures to incline the rotor; wherein the inclination mechanism has a first position and a second position, the first position being 0° vertical position in respect to an aircraft on the DOVER is mounted and the second position being an inclined position in respect to the aircraft on which the DOVER is mounted and wherein the inclination mechanism controls the movement of a first rotating shaft in relation to a second rotating shaft; and (d) an azimuthal rotation mechanism in communication with the mechanism for mobile torque application, the azimuthal rotation mechanism configured to provide torque from the mechanism for mobile torque application to the rotor at a plurality of incline positions set by the inclination mechanism; and wherein a rotating turret controls the movement of the first rotating shaft in relation to the second rotating shaft, wherein the rotating turret traverses about an azimuth along the turret/fuselage ring unit interface, which is where the rotating turret interfaces a fuselage of an aircraft, wherein said turret/fuselage ring unit interface is configured in a manner of a rolling element thrust bearing.
