Abstract

See full text

A helicopter rotor has at least one pair of diametrically opposed rotor blades interconnected by a strap member flexible in torsion and in a plane perpendicular to a plane of rotation and stiff in a plane coincident with the plane of rotation. A torsionally flexible tie-bar having a tensile elastic modulus greater than that of the strap member is extended between pivotal attachments adjacent opposed ends of the interconnecting strap member. In operation, a major portion of centrifugal loads caused by the rotating blades is carried by the tie-bar.
