Patented May 31, 1932 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE DIRIGIIBLE AIRSHIP HANGAR Application filed October 15, 1929. Serial No. 399,759.
My invention relates to dirigible airship hangars, and the objects of my invention are: First, to provide a hangar for this purpose adapted to permit entrance and exit of airships with the longitudinal axis thereof substantially parallel with the direction of the wind no matter from what point of the compass the latter may come; second, to provide a hangar of such a shape as ,to oifer equal space for accommodating airships' entering any one of a number of angularly displaced doorways thereto; third, to provide a hangar of the form best adapted'to withstand the force of wind; fourth, to provide a hangar of a form presenting the smallest arch possible commensurate with the accommodations provided for; fifth, to provide a hangar of a form presenting the minimum external surface for agiven effective space within the hangar; sixth, to provide a substantially circular hangar having a plurality of doors around its periphery, the spacing of which is reduced at their base to a minimum, and having doors therefor which may be maneuvered without interfering with each other; seventh, to provide a door structure which is adapted to be supported in a manner of fering inherent stabilit against wind forces; eighth, to provide a hangar in which the weight thereof is distributed between a relatively large number of peripheral supports and a common central support, which may be made of great strength without interfering with the accessibility or utility of the hangar; ninth, to provide a hangar structure in which all longer dimensions thereof are of arcuate form, thereby eliminating the need for elaborate provisions to be made for expansion and contraction due to variation in temperature; tenth, to provide a hangar structure of a form adapted to house several airships of various sizes and so arranged as to permit all shops, offices, and'storerooms to be located in a central position if desired 5 so as to reduce the distance between the airships and the shops to a minimum; eleventh, to provide a. hangar structure adapted to permit the entrance or exit of several airships at the same time in a given direction, and twelfth, to provide an airship hangar in which an airship of the greatest dimensions adapted to be accommodated may be turned around within the hangar.
With these and other objects in view as will appear hereinafter, my invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts and portions as will be hereinafter described in detail and particularly set forth in the appended claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and to the characters of reference thereon which form a part of this'application, in which Figure 1 is a fragmentary plan View of my'hangar with one pair of outer doors in their open position; Fig. 2 is a side elevational view thereof, showing the two doors open; Fig. 3 is a section taken along the line 33 of Fig. 1; Fig. 4 is a section taken along the line H of Fig. 1; Fig. 5 is an enlarged fragmentary view of the lower portion of both of the doors; Fig. 6 is an enlarged fragmentary view of the upper end of the doors; Fig. 7 is a side view of the door supporting structure; and Fig. 8 is a diagrammatical plan view of the hangar, showing the relative position of the doors and accommodating space for the airships, and Fig. 5) is a diagrammatical View of a modified form of hangar. 0
Similar characters of reference refer to similar parts and portions throughout the several views of the drawings.
The hangar is in plan circular or polygonal in outline, and in cross section simulates an umbrella structure,- in that it comprises a plurality of radiall extending ribs or arches l, the outer en s of which are su ported on the periphery of the hangar, Whl e the inner ends are supported on a common central column 2, as best shown in F i 4. The'radial ribs or arches 1 are connected together by means of concentrically arranged ring girders 3, the lowermost one So forming the upper portion of the doorways, the side portions thereof being formed by arched girderwork 1a extending laterally from the ribs 1 and connected to the ring girder 3a at points intermediate the ribs 1. Other equally spaced ribs 16 are secured at their me outer ends to the ring girder 3a and are supe central column 2 is of SlllllClCllt strength to support all of the radial arches 1 and 1b and may be of a height approximately one half of the total arch rise.
The frame work of the hangar above the ring girder 3a is covered by means of a suitable material, such as corrugated steel, forming a. substantially weatherproof roof 6. If
' desired, the entire upper portion may be covered by a roof superstructure 6a of shghtl coned form extending over the concavity unned by the frame work, as indicated in dotted lines in Figs. 3 and 4.
Alternate doorways are provided with apair of inner sliding doors 7 and outer doors 8. These doors are substantially segmental in outline and extend from the base of the arches up to the lower margin of the roof 6, thus forming movable side sections extending entirely around the building, if desired. The door pairs 7 and S are ofl'set radially so that they may be moved into overlapping relation, as best indicated in the fra enta view shown in Fig. It is obvious that adjacent doors instead of adjacent pairs may be offset in this manner.
The bases of the doors are mounted on trucks 9 and 10, which are adapted to move on tracks 11 and 12, respectively, extending around the hangar. The trucks are preferably arranged to be driven by electric motors, not shown in the drawings, which may be either directly geared to the truck axle or connected by other traction means, such as a winch and cable or rack and pinion. In order to relieve the truck wheels of the relatively great lateral thrust, side rollers 91) and 10?) are provided, which run on ways 9a and 10a in the sides of the pits, as indicated in Figs. 5 and 7 The doors conform in form to the shape of the hangar and are covered over their lower portion with corrugated steel or the like, vwhile their upper portions are preferably provided with windows 13. Ordinary sized doors 14 are also provided at the base of the doors 7 and 8 for allowing entrance and exit to and from the hangar when the latter are closed. The upper ends of the doors 7 and 8 are rovided with rollers 15 and 16, which are adaptedto be supported on suitable rollways 17 and 18, supported on a ring-shaped girder work 19 extending around the hangar over the upper end of the doorways. The lower end 6a of the roof 6 is supported on the upper end of said ring girder work 19, and is adapted to slightly overlap the upper ends of the doors 7 and 8. Owin to the overhanging form of the doors 7 an 8, they bear with considerable force against the ring girder 19, and thus are relatively stable and capable of withstanding considerable outwardly directed ressure which might occur due to considera 1e airdisturbances around the hangar, without danger of falling over. However, in order to prevent an possibility of their being thrown outward y, they are provided with downwardly extendin lugs 20, which are adapted to extend into c iannel members 21 on the ring structure 19 in case of outward movement of the upper end of the door, that is, in case the rollers leave the rollwa s.
1 h order that the sills of the doors 7 and 8 be flush with the floor of the hanger, tracks 11 and 12 may be positioned in pits, as indicated in Fig. 5, the track being completely concealed below the surface of the floor.
Around the central column 2 may be provided a circular building 22, which may house the workshops, storerooms, and oflices of the hangar. If desired, other buildings may be provided in the space otherwise occupied by one or more of the doors, referably occup ing the osition from whic direction, for t e particu ar locality of the hangar, the wind ver rarely blows.
wing to the uni ue form of the ban ar, it is obvious that airs ips may be mov into and out of the hangar from practically any angle and it is therefore unnecessary to wait for the wind to veer to any one direction before operations may be commenced.
In the case of the largest t pe of airship, housing facilities are provide alongside the central column, while smaller craft ma be accommodated closer to the outer side 0 the hangar, as best indicated in the dia rammatical view Fig. 8. It will also be note that several large and small ships may be accommodated at the same time. If it is necessary to move the position of any one of the ships in order to pass through a doorway suitable 'for use in the particular case, the airships in the hangar may be conveniently swung around t e central column by means of suitable tow cars mounted on circular tracks 23 and 24, whereby the airship which it is desired to take out may be readily maneuvered into position opposite the doorway.
It will be understood that any other suitable mechanical or manual means may be substituted for carrying on the maneuvering of one or more airships within the hangar.
A modified form of hangar is shown diagrammatically in Fig. "9. In this arrangement the u per portion 25 is carried out in the form 0 a full dome, no central support being provided. The entire interior is thus clear of all obstacles and it is possible to accommodate an airship of a length substantially equal to the interior diameter of the hangar and maneuver it into position for passing through any one of the doors 25a. It is obvious that the dome form of structure offers great advantages in regard to the construction of a hangar of the magnitude necessary for accommodating airships of great dimensions. The structure follows the form illustrated in Figs. 1 to 8 in respect of all portions with the exception of the central column and thespan of the ribs or arches, which are necessarily greater.
Though I have shown and described a particular construction, combination and arrangementof parts and portions, I do not wish to be limited to this particular construction, combination and arrangement, but desire to include in the scope of my invention the construction, combination and arrangement substantially as set forth in the appended claims.
