Patent US-1918-1394460

From Inventing aviation
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Applies to airplanes with a "continuous surface and a vertical tail post at the rear end." All the claims refer to this context. The vertical tail is of the kind now common. Tech categories:

  • CPC B64C1/00 Constructional features common to fuselages, wings, stabilising surfaces and the like
  • CPC B64C2001/0063 Fuselage structures substantially made from wood
  • Inventor location: New York county, NY (FIPSloc=36061, imputed from HistPat)
  • Assignee location: College Point, Long Island, NY state, but also identified in the patent text as "a corporation of Michigan" -- possibly just because of favorable laws in Michigan although I don't know that registering there was a common practice at the time
