CONVERTIPLANE
First Claim
1. ) A convertiplane (1) comprising:
- a pair of semi-wings (3);
at least two rotors (4) which may rotate about a first axes (B) and tilt about relative second axes (C) together with said first axes (B) with respect to said semi-wings (3) between a helicopter mode and an aeroplane mode;
said first axes (B) being, in use, transversal to a longitudinal direction (A) of said convertiplane (1) in said helicopter mode, and being, in use, substantially parallel to said longitudinal direction (A) in said aeroplane mode;
characterized in that said semi-wings (3) comprise relative through openings (8) within which said relative rotors (4) may tilt, when said convertiplane (1) moves, in use, between said helicopter and said aeroplane mode;
said semi-wings (3) forming a delta-wing.

Abstract
There is described a convertiplane comprising: a pair of semi-wings; at least two rotors which may rotate about relative first axes and tilt about relative second axes together with first axis with respect to semi-wings between a helicopter mode and an aeroplane mode; first axis being, in use, transversal to a longitudinal direction of convertiplane in helicopter mode, and being, in use, substantially parallel to longitudinal direction in aeroplane mode; convertiplane further comprises at least two through openings within which said rotor may tilt, when said convertiplane moves, in use, between said helicopter and said aeroplane mode.
