Disclosed here are systems for detachable airframe components including detachable nose cones, propeller assemblies and motors. In some example embodiments, the assemblies include a nose cone with a connection receiver, a motor assembly with a rotatable section, where the rotatable section includes torque arms configured to secure with the nose cone connection receiver, and a propeller assembly, configured to connect to the nose cone.

A propeller includes a plurality of blades that extends outward in a radial direction of a rotation central axis relative to the rotation central axis, and includes an end that is located on an opposite side of the rotation central axis. Each of the plurality of blades has a maximum angle of elevation in a position ranging from 30% to 60% with the rotation central axis as a starting point of a radius of a circle that passes through the end of each of the plurality of blades with the rotation central axis as a center, the maximum angle of elevation being a maximum of an angle of elevation in each of the plurality of blades. A change in the angle of elevation in a longitudinal direction of each of the plurality of blades is within 10 degrees per 5% of the radius. A change in the longitudinal direction of a cross-sectional maximum blade thickness is within 20% of a maximum blade thickness of each of the plurality of blades per 5% of the radius, the cross-sectional maximum blade thickness being a maximum blade thickness in a cross section of each of the plurality of blades, the cross section being orthogonal to the longitudinal direction. A change in a chord length of each of the plurality of blades in the longitudinal direction is within 20% of a maximum of the chord length in each of the plurality of blades per 5% of the radius.

A propeller folding apparatus of an air mobility vehicle deploys or folds propeller blades depending on the flying state of the air mobility vehicle. The propeller blades are efficiently used depending on the flying state of the air mobility vehicle. The energy efficiency and the ferry range of the air mobility vehicle are increased.

The present invention relates to an aerially distributable communications device (ACCD) including one or more gyrochutes and communications module configured for wireless communication with external communication nodes. The communications module can be configured for mesh network type communication with similar aerially distributable communications device, or as a gateway type communications device to a wide area network such as a satellite network. The ACCD is for deployment in remote areas and/or areas where normal communications networks are down, such as disaster areas. The ACCD can be deployed from an aircraft or a spacecraft. The ACCD can further be configured with emergency equipment such as water purification equipment, power charging equipment, or the like.

A propeller, a propeller kit, a power assembly, a power kit and an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The propeller includes a hub and at least two blades connected to the hub. The hub is detachably mounted on a corresponding drive apparatus by a mounting member corresponding to the hub, so that the propeller is mounted on the corresponding drive apparatus. A surface, facing the mounting member, of the hub is provided with a first fitting portion. A surface, facing the hub, of the mounting member is provided with a second fitting portion corresponding to the first fitting portion. The first fitting portion matches the second fitting portion. In the foregoing manner, a user can be prevented from incorrectly mounting a forward propeller and a counter-rotating propeller during the use of a quick-detachable propeller in the embodiments of the present application.

A system for retaining a folded proprotor blade in flight. The system includes a mounting plate, a first arm coupled to the mounting plate at an acute angle relative to the mounting plate, and a first deformable pad affixed to the first arm and adapted to contact the folded proprotor blade.

A locking system for a propulsor teeter of an aircraft is disclosed. The system includes a propulsor, driven by a motor, comprising a hub, wherein the hub is configured to rotate about a rotational axis, a teeter mechanism connected to the hub, wherein the teeter mechanism is configured to permit the propulsor to pivot along an axis, wherein the axis is non-parallel with a longitudinal axis of the propulsor and intersecting with the rotational axis of the propulsor and a locking mechanism configured to lock the teeter mechanism, restricting the pivoting of the propulsor, while the aircraft is in wing-borne flight.
