An aircraft includes a wing. The wing includes an aileron pivotally connected to a trailing edge of the wing, and a Lam aileron pivotally connected to the trailing edge of the wing. The aircraft includes a motor connected to the Lam aileron and configured to rotate the Lam aileron. The aircraft includes a controller configured to detect a deflection of the aileron from a neutral position, calculate a target deflection for the Lam aileron using the deflection of the aileron, and cause the motor to rotate the Lam aileron to the target deflection.

A bell crank mechanism is configured to at least indirectly link movement of an aircraft wing spoiler-like hinge panel to the movement of a primary flight control device on an aircraft wing trailing edge. The aircraft wing is configured to be fixed to and to extend from an aircraft fuselage, the wing including a leading edge and a trailing edge. The primary flight control device is attached to the trailing edge, and any movement of the control device is directly subject to an aircraft input controller by a linear actuator. The moveable aerodynamic hinge panel, a secondary control device, is situated proximally to the primary flight control device, and the hinge panel is separately attached to the trailing edge. The bell crank mechanism slaves any hinge panel motion to movements of the primary control device.

The present disclosure pertains to an actuation mechanism for a flap with aileron functionality, including a crank having a crank axle, a crank arm and a crank pivot; a displacement shaft articulated to the crank pivot at an actuating end portion; and a rotatable linear-motion bearing in which the displacement shaft is slidably supported, wherein the displacement shaft is fixedly connectable to a flap body of the aircraft flap at a flap end portion of the displacement shaft opposite to the actuating end portion, and wherein the linear-motion bearing is rotatably attachable at a pivot point to an aircraft wing comprising the aircraft flap, so that the displacement shaft is able to rotate around an axis running spanwise of the aircraft wing around the pivot point. The present disclosure further pertains to an aircraft flap with such an actuation mechanism and an aircraft having an aircraft flap.

As configured, the bell crank mechanism assures that any hinge panel motion is slaved to the control device in a manner intended to optimize aerodynamic performance and efficiency.
摘要:
An aircraft wing comprising a main wing, a high lift element, and at least two spaced connecting systems for moveably connecting the high lift element to the main wing, wherein each connecting system comprises a track element provided on the main wing, and having a first support surface and a first track side wall, an actuator device, a drive rod, and a carriage device connected to the high lift element and having an engagement portion. The object is to provide an aircraft wing which is configured in such a manner that when the connecting system for connecting the high lift element to the main wing fails the high lift element can still be held in a possibly unskewed position.

A system and method for a controlling an aircraft with flight control surfaces that are controlled both manually and by a computing device is disclosed. The present invention improves overall flight control operation by reducing the mechanical flight control surface components while providing sufficient back-up control capability in the event of either a mechanical or power-related failure. Through the present invention, natural feedback is provided to the operator from the mechanical flight control surface which operates independent of computer-aided flight control surfaces. Further, through the present invention, force input signals received from the pilot are filtered to improve the operation of the computer-aided flight control surfaces.

A flap system for an aircraft includes a flow body, a trailing flap and a movement means. The flow body includes an upper surface and a lower surface, the lower surface having a recess. The movement means is attachable to the flow body and the trailing flap. The trailing flap includes a shape that corresponds to the recess in the lower surface. The movement means is adapted for conducting at least a chordwise movement of the trailing flap such that it is movable out of and into the recess of the flow body in absence of a gap between the leading edge of the trailing flap and the flow body. Thereby, a clear increase in a lift coefficient may be achieved, while at the same time maintaining a low complexity and a high reliability of the flap system.

A bipartite, full span airplane flap system having an inboard flap portion and an outboard flap portion, wherein the outboard flap portion includes an integrated aileron mounted on its substantially equivalent spanwise length. The outboard flap portion is adapted to translate between a first and a second position to create a functional slot between a bottom surface of the flap member leading part and a bottom surface of the airfoil trailing part to draw a portion of higher pressure air from the bottom surface of the airfoil through the functional slot to distribute the higher pressure air over a top surface of the outboard flap portion.
摘要:
Described is an interconnection system, in particular for flaps which are located side-by-side, on an aircraft wing, for example landing flaps or high-lift flaps. The interconnection system is in particular characterised in that it comprises a correspondingly guided compensating profile for a gap between the flaps, which gap changes when the flaps are moved. Preferably, the interconnection system is combined with a failsafe device for adjacent flaps in the form of a longitudinally adjustable interconnection strut which is connected to the adjacent flaps by way of corresponding load introduction fittings. The interconnection system is in particular suitable for large aircraft in which the gap between adjacent flaps, due to the relatively large lateral movement of the flaps during retraction and extension, becomes relatively wide, and the forces acting on the flaps are relatively great.
