    摘要: A number of devices are provided for detecting presence of ice in an airstream. In some examples such device includes a housing defining a first chamber and a second chamber, and a partition wall separating the first chamber and the second chamber. The first chamber has at least one inlet opening on a front housing wall facing the airstream, and at least one outlet opening, smaller than the at least one inlet opening. The second chamber is configured for being operatively coupled to at least one electromagnetic (EM) system that is configured for transmitting EM energy to the first chamber at least via the partition wall, which is transparent and/or translucent with respect to the EM energy, the EM energy being configured for melting ice that can accrete with respect to the inlet opening. The device is configured for being operatively coupled to at least one air pressure sensor in fluid communication with the first chamber for detecting at least pressure changes in the first chamber responsive to ice accretion on the inlet opening.

    摘要: An aircraft pylon is provided, configured for mounting to the underside of an aircraft wing projecting from a fuselage and for carrying an external payload suspended therefrom. The pylon comprises an attachment mechanism configured for facilitating mounting of the pylon to the aircraft wing, and a carrying arrangement configured for carrying the payload and being pivotally articulated to the attachment mechanism. The pylon is configured to selectively pivot the carrying arrangement about a pylon axis between a vertical position in which it is suspended in a substantially vertical orientation, and a tilted position in which it is tilted toward the fuselage.

    摘要: A hovering aerial vehicle is provided, comprising an airborne unit and an auxiliary unit. The airborne unit is configured to carry the auxiliary unit during flight and comprises a flight system configured to facilitate providing aerodynamic lift to facilitate hovering of the vehicle. The auxiliary unit comprises an electrical power source in electrical communication with the flight system to provide electrical power for its operation. The hovering aerial vehicle further comprises a decoupling system configured to facilitate selectively switching the vehicle between a detached configuration thereof wherein the airborne and auxiliary units are remote from each other, and an attached configuration thereof wherein the airborne and auxiliary units are secured to one another, and to maintain the electrical communication when the vehicle is in its detached configuration.
