page_text: JACOB WAELDE Mechanist 24 Broad Street Golden Square London W do hereby
declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This machine consists of an upright standard A bearing two revolving
pulleys B₁ B-On the standard A are fixed two enclosures D, D,, in which two
men are standing and acting with their feet on the belt, rope or chain C so as to
cause pulleys B₁ В₂ to revolve.-Pulley B₂ is a guide only for the belt, rope or
chain C but pulley B₁ causes the shaft E to rotate in justable bearings.-On the
shaft E are fixed two framing O, O₂ forming each a cross. Also on the shaft E are
fixed two other framings formed by eight hollow tubes P which tubes are perpen-
dicularly placed to each other. The two framings O₁ O₂ and the two others of
hollow tubes P are obliged to revolve with shaft E.

In the four mentioned framings are lodged eight flat wings N, the latter
following the rotary motion of framings.-Each wing besides is capable of rotary
motion round its own centre.
Loose on the shaft E are placed two wheels F, latter being fixed to the regu-
lation frame S₁ S K₁ K (Fig. III) so, that for a given position of the said frame
the wheels F do not revolve. With each of the wheels F are four conical pinions g
in gear, i.e. eight pinions g are gearing with two wheels F. This eight pinions
are fixed on eight corresponding axles lodged respectively on eight hollow tubes P.
On the opposite ends of axles are respectively fixed eight other conical pinions g,
the total of latter being sixteen in number.
The eight of the pinions g which are farther placed of the shaft E are in gear
with eight conical wheels h, which wheels are fixed respectively to the eight
wings N and placed in its centres.
The action of the gearings F, g & h consists in displacing the wings N in its
centres.
Diameters of pinions g are the same, but those of wheels H are twice the
diameters of wheels F.
When wings N revolve round the shaft E twice; they revolve in the same time
only over round its own centres; so that in Fig. II when wing N, is acting full
against the air and causes the machine to move upwards; the wing No divides the
air and does not oppose that movement.

page_text: A man placed in the enclosure D, can change the position of lever L revolving
round an axle fixed to standard A.-The latter lever is connected with the regulation
frame S, S₂ K, K, by means of two straps or chains M, M..
In changing lever L the man changes the position of frame S₁ S K, K₂ which is
displaced round the shaft E.
The latter frame being fixed to wheels F displaces them and by means of
pinions g and wheels h the wings N turn round their centres and for the same
position of frame O, O, and P, the wings N are displaced in their centres so that
in Fig. II wing N, would be more or less inclined to the horizontal position of P.-
The object of the displacement of wings N is to cause the machine to move either
upwards or in a combined direction of forwards and upwards.
A flat wing S serves for a rudder when the flying machine moves forwards.-
The wing S revolves in bearings T, T₂ fixed to standard A.-Wing S is displaced
in its bearings by the second inan in enclosure D₂, moving the lever W and causes
the straight piece V to revolve, the piece V by means of straps or chains R₁ R₂
turns a lever U fixed on the axle of wing S.
The flying machine stand on a base plate Q.
The belt, rope or chain C might also be actuated by an electric motor, placed on
the machine, acting on the belt, rope or chain C either directly or indirectly and
the motor being connected with two wires with a stationary dynamo electric
machine, the latter machine forming no part of flying machine.

page_text: JACOB WAELDE Machanist 24 Broad Street Golden Square London W do hereby
declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be
performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:
This machine of which the Drawings are filed with the provisional Specification
consist of an upright standard A. bearing two revolving pulleys B₁ B-On the
standard A are fixed two enclosures D, D, in which two men, each in one enclosure
are standing and acting with their feet on the belt, rope or chain C. so as to bring
the pulleys B, and B, into rotation. Pulleys B.. serves as guide to belt, rope or
chain C and pulley B. causes the shaft E to revolve. On the shaft E are fixed two
framings O, O, each having the form of a cross. Also on the same shaft E are
two other framings in a form of a cross formed by eight hollow tubes P. each
framing consisting of 4 tubes P. perpendicularly placed to each other The two
framings 0, 0, and the two others of hollow tubes P are therefore obliged to
revolve together with shaft E. In the four mentioned framings are lodged eight
flat wings N. the latter following to rotary motion of framings. Each wing besides
is capable of rotary motion round its own centre.-Loose in the shaft E are
placed the two wheels F, F, the latter being fixed to the regulation frame S, S, K₁ K₁₁
so that for a determined position of the said frame wheels F₁ F, do not revolve at
all. With each of the wheels F₁ F, are four conical pinions g in gear i.e. eight
pinions are gearing with wheels F. F.-The eight pinions are fixed on eight
corresponding axes lodged respectively in eight mentioned hollow tubes P.-On the
opposite end of the axles are fixed respectively eight other conical pinions g: the
total number of pinions g therefore being 16.-The later eight pinions g are in
gear with eight conical wheels h, which wheels are fixed respectively to the eight
wings and placed in its centres. The action of the gearings of F. g & h consist of
the placing the position of wing N. in its centres, when they revolve round shaft E.-
Diametres of pinions g. are the same but those of wheels h are twice the diametres
of F.-When the wings N. revolve round shaft E. twice in the same time the wings
revolve only once in its own centre.
The position of wings (Fig. II) shows that when N, is acting full against the
air, and causes the machine to move upwards, the wing N, devides the air and
does not oppose that movement.-A man in the enclosure D. can change the
position of lever L. revolving round an axle fixed to standard A.-The latter lever
is connected with the regulation frame S₁ S, K₁ K₂ (Fig. III) by means of two straps
or chains M, M,-In changing the position of lever L. the man changes that of
frame S. S₂ K, K, which is capable or rotary motion round shaft E.-The later
frame being fixed to wheels F, F, displaces them, and by means of pinions g and
wheels h. the wings turn round its centres and for the same position of framings O₁ O₂
and P. the wings are displaced in their centres so that in Fig. II wing N, would
be more or less inclined to the horizontal position of P-The object of displace-
ment of wings is to cause the machine to move upwards, or upwards and forwards.
A flat wing S. serves for a rudder when the machine moves forwards. The wing S

page_text: revolves in bearings T, T, fixed to standard A-Wing S is displaced in its bearings
by the second man being in enclosure D. who in moving the lever W causes the
straight piece V. to revolve, the later by means of straps or chains R, R, turns a
lever U fixed in the axle of S.-Machine stands on a loose plate Q.
The belt, rope or chain C might also be driven by an electric motor connected
by means of two wires to a stationery dynamo electric machine. Instead of the
two wheels F, F, and the eight conical wheels h. which are in gear with the
total number of 16 conical pinions g. can be used a chain wheel to gear the wings.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is:
1. That this machine can be used to carry messages in a quicker manner than
any other invented until now, known.
2. That I am the only and sole inventor.
