Aircraft capable of hovering

Aircraft capable of hovering, comprising:

• at least one motor member;
• at least one rotor operatively connected to said motor member;
• at least one transmission shaft rotatable around a first axis and adapted to drive said rotor;
• and
• at least one transmission interposed between said motor member and said rotor;
• said transmission comprising a planetary gear formed by:
• a sun rotatable around a second axis with a first angular speed;
• a crown angularly fixed with respect to said second axis or rotatable around said second axis with a second angular speed different from said first angular speed;
• at least two satellites meshing, each, with said crown and said sun, and being rotatable around respective third axes, which are in turn rotatable around said second axis;
• and
• a satellite carrier rotatable around said second axis and comprising at least two first pins with respect to which said satellites are rotatable around said respective third axes;
• wherein said transmission comprises:
• an interface interposed between said satellite carrier and said transmission shaft, coupled to said satellite carrier around said second axis and said transmission shaft around said first axis;
• said interface being coupled to said satellite carriers and to said transmission shaft so as to allow an angular misalignment between a portion of said interface and said second axis;
• said interface being articulated on said satellite carrier, so that said portion is tiltable with respect to said satellite carrier around at least a fourth axis orthogonal to said first and second axes;
• said portion comprising a plurality of second elongated pins that are parallel to respective fifth axes;
• and in that it comprises a plurality of ball joints coupled to respective said second pins around said first axis and articulated on said satellite carrier, so as to allow said inclination of said interface with respect to said satellite carrier around said at least one fourth axis;
• said interface comprising an annular body, coupled in a rotationally integral manner with said transmission shaft and from which said second pins project axially in a cantilevered manner;
• wherein said annular body comprises a plurality of angularly equally spaced spokes;
• each second pin projecting axially cantilevered from a relative said spoke;
• said annular body comprising:
• a first circumferential, continuous and radially internal, end edge;
• and
• a second circumferential, continuous and radially external, end edge, said second circumferential end edge being axially superimposed on said second pins;
• said spokes extending radially between said first and second circumferential end edges.
