Abstract

Abstract An aircraft stall warning system wherein flap and air vane controlled synchros phase shift an alternating current reference signal in response to lift air foil attitude to form a control signal that controls, by the phase shift, the amount of the reference signal gated to a level-sensitive power switch for activating preferably a pilot''s column shaker warning upon the aircraft''s assuming a critical angle of attack. Two alternative modes of ''''fail safe'''' testing work in integral relationship with ''''built-in'''' bias inherent in the system.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 59 words
A method for testing a three wire differential type synchro chain comprising the steps of 1. switching a capacitor into one leg of the input power to said three wire differential synchro chain, and 2. connecting said synchro chain to a two phase induction motor for spinning a dial attached to its shaft to indicate proper synchro chain functioning.
