  • Patent number: 6837457
    Abstract: An aircraft rotor and an aircraft which aircraft has a body and a rotor arranged to it, the rotor having at least two blades. The rotor is arranged to rotate around a substantially vertical axis. The blades are arranged in such a manner that, when rotating, they form a conical surface, whereby to provide ascending force, the ascending force coefficients of the blades are adjusted to be positive and to provide propulsive force, the ascending force coefficients of the blades on the forward side and on the rear side are adjusted to have opposite signs.

  • Patent number: 6805544
    Abstract: An extruder includes a material feeding device feeding into a radial pump unit. The radial pump unit includes conical screws which are adjacently positioned and rotate in the same direction. The radial pump unit transfers an annular flow of the material into the extruder's nozzle. Additional material can be supplied into the product through the radial pump unit.

  • Patent number: 6511017
    Abstract: A method of steering an aircraft, and an aircraft comprising a supporting structure, at least one utility space, at least two propellers whose axles are arranged horizontally, and a driving mechanism to rotate each propeller. The blade angles of at least one propeller of the aircraft are adjusted as a function of a rotation angle of the propeller such that the blow power of the propellers provides the aircraft with a lifting force, and after take-off of the aircraft the blade angles of the propellers are adjusted such that the blow power of the propellers provides the aircraft with horizontal flight.
