Multiple Controllable Airflow Modification Devices

US Patent:
2012018, Jul 26, 2012
Filed:
Apr 3, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/438614
Inventors:
Nicholas R. Guida - Sagle ID, US
Assignee:
TAMARACK AEROSPACE GROUP, INC. - Sandpoint ID
International Classification:
B64C 23/06, B64C 13/02, B64C 3/58
US Classification:
2441994, 244 76 R
Abstract:
An active wing extension includes a body portion substantially parallel to a wing of an aircraft, as if it were an extension of the wing. The body portion is attachable to an aircraft wing and includes multiple controllable airflow modification devices coupled thereto. By virtue of having multiple controllable airflow modification devices, the wing extension is capable of adjusting control surfaces of the multiple controllable airflow modification devices in response to in-flight conditions, to reduce wing loads, improve wing fatigue characteristics, increase range, and/or increase efficiency.

Control Quadrant

US Patent:
2013003, Feb 14, 2013
Filed:
Aug 10, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/571573
Inventors:
Nicholas R. Guida - Sagle ID, US
Dieter Koehler - Powell Butte OR, US
Haldan R. Gates - Sandpoint ID, US
Stephen L. Babin - Spirit Lake ID, US
Dwight W. Mitchell - Sandpoint ID, US
Chase Hrdina - Columbia MO, US
Assignee:
TAMARACK AEROSPACE GROUP, INC. - Sandpoint ID
International Classification:
B64C 19/02, B23P 17/00
US Classification:
244234, 294011, 74471 R
Abstract:
An aircraft with a control system having joint control for a throttle and a propeller of an aircraft may be modified to decouple the joint control of a throttle and a propeller. Control of the throttle and propeller may be independent of the other. Exemplary modification of a control system may use new structures, existing structures, repurpose existing structures, or use a combination thereof. Additionally or alternatively, modification of a control system may provide controls with tactile distinction to a user.

Active Winglet

US Patent:
7900877, Mar 8, 2011
Filed:
Sep 24, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/890557
Inventors:
Nicholas R. Guida - Sandpoint ID, US
Assignee:
Tamarack Aerospace Group, Inc. - Sandpoint ID
International Classification:
B64C 9/00, B64C 23/06
US Classification:
2441994, 244 87
Abstract:
An active winglet includes a body portion substantially parallel to a wing of an aircraft, as if it were an extension of the wing, and an angled portion that projects at an upward angle from the body portion. The body portion is attachable to an aircraft wing and includes a controllable airflow modification device coupled thereto. By virtue of having a controllable airflow modification device, the winglet is capable of adjusting a control surface of the controllable airflow modification device in response to in-flight conditions, to reduce wing loads, increase range, and increase efficiency.
