摘要: A wing for an aircraft, including a main wing, a slat, and a connection assembly movably connecting the slat to the main wing. The connection assembly includes an elongate slat track with a front end mounted to the slat and a rear end and an intermediate portion mounted to the main wing by a roller bearing, and includes a guide rail mounted to the main wing and a first roller unit mounted to the slat track rear end and engaging the guide rail. The roller bearing includes a second roller unit mounted to the main wing and engaging a slat track intermediate portion engagement surface. The slat track has an upper and lower flange and at least one web. The second roller unit is arranged in a recess between the upper and lower flanges and engages the engagement surface provided at the upper and/or lower flange.

摘要: A wing for an aircraft, including a main wing, a slat, and a connection assembly movably connecting the slat to the main wing, such that the slat is movable between a retracted position and at least one extended position. The connection assembly includes a first connection station and a second connection station spaced apart from the first connection station in a wing span direction. The object, to prevent the slat from skewing, is achieved in that the connection assembly includes a sync shaft coupling the first connection station to the second connection station for sync movement of the first and second connection stations.

摘要: A wing for an aircraft including a main wing, slat, and connection assembly movable connecting the slat to the main wing and including an elongate slat track. A front end of the slat track is mounted to the slat. A rear end and an intermediate portion of the slat track are mounted to the main wing by a roller bearing that includes a guide rail mounted to the main wing and a first roller unit mounted to the rear end of the slat track and engaging the guide rail. The wing has redundant main load paths. The guide rail includes a guide rail primary structure engaging with the first roller unit and an additional reinforcement structure additionally reinforcing the guide rail primary structure in a lateral direction. The guide rail primary structure forms a first main load path. The reinforcement structure forms a redundant second main load path.

摘要: A structural assembly for an airfoil structure comprising at least one connection member configured to connect a leading-edge member, or a trailing-edge member, of an airfoil structure to a torsion-box member, such that the connection member prevents the leading-edge member, or trailing-edge member, from pivoting relative to the torsion-box member away from an operational position. At least one corresponding support is provided wherein the support is configured to be attachable to the connection member and further configured to be attachable to at least one system element.

摘要: A C-shaped connection assembly transmits loads in a load plane between a first and a second wing element. The connection assembly comprises a first and a second L-shaped load-bearing device. Each load-bearing device comprises a joint region and two legs extending parallel to the load plane and away from the joint region towards respective end regions. One leg of the first load-bearing device extends parallel to one leg of the second load bearing device. These legs are connected to one another. Two coupling portions which connect the connection assembly to the second wing element are formed in the respective joint regions of the load-bearing devices. Two further coupling portions which connect the connection assembly to the first wing element are formed in respective free end region of the load-bearing device and the joint region of the second load-bearing device.
