Patent US-1910-1037050
From abstract on google patents: "This invention relates to a flying machine adapted to be constructed with one or more superposed supporting surfaces and characterized by the following main points: 1. The stabilizing, directing and supporting surfaces have a longitudinal profile showing a triple curvature and formed by three arcs of parabolae. 2. These supporting surfaces are adapted to be folded laterally for storing purposes without it being necessary to take the apparatus into pieces. 3. The car forms a boat adapted to float on water and to support the whole apparatus. 4. The lateral balance is automatically obtained by means of stabilizing surfaces which are actuated by a servomotor which in turn is operated by a pendulum. 5.-The longitudinal equilibrium is automatically obtained by means of the horizontal rudder which serves as a stabilizing surface for the pitching motion and which is actuated by a double-acting servo-motor based upon the principle of the communicating vessels. 6. The screw propellers are mounted in such a manner that the air is forced under the supporting surfaces and they carry speed reducing gears on their hubs. 7. The vertical rudder comprises two wings which may be opened like screens around a vertical shaft so as to produce a great resistance to the forward propulsion; this arrangement combined with the forcing of the air under the supporting surfaces by the screw propellers allows the apparatus to rise nearly vertically. 8. The front carrying wheels of the apparatus are mounted on hydro-pneumatic shock deadening devices intended to avoid any transmission of shocks to the remainder of the apparatus at the moment of the landing. The accompanying drawings show by way of example several forms of embodiment of the flying machine which forms the subject matter of this invention and in these drawings"
