    摘要: A spoiler actuation apparatus for moving an aircraft spoiler. The spoiler is moveable between a stowed configuration and a deployed configuration. The spoiler actuation apparatus includes a guide member, a rack mounted on the guide member and slideable along a longitudinal axis of the guide member, and a gear coupled to the rack, the gear arranged to move the spoiler in response to sliding of the rack. The rack is held at a first position when the spoiler is in the stowed configuration. An actuator moves the rack from the first position to a second position along the longitudinal axis. When the rack is at the second position, the rack is operable to accelerate relative to the guide member away from the second position by an aerodynamic force acting on the spoiler.

    摘要: A wing leading-edge device is disclosed having a slat body having a front side with a forward skin and a back side with a rearward skin, and at least a drive arrangement having at least one lug and a slat track, wherein the back side extends between an upper spanwise edge of the forward skin and a lower spanwise edge of the forward skin. The back side is defined by a continuously curved profile contour for receiving a fixed leading edge, and the at least one lug is at least partially arranged between the back side and the front side. The slat track is coupled with the first lug. The connection points to the slat body are shifted far forward to improve the load introduction and reduce moments acting on the drive mechanism.

    摘要: A wing (5) including a fixed wing (7), a high-lift device (15) and a hold-down arrangement arranged (27) between two supports (23, 25) of the high lift device (15) having a first hold-down element (29) attached to the high-lift device (15) and a second hold-down element (31) attached to the fixed wing (7). The first hold-down element (29) contacts the second hold-down element (31) when the high-lift device (15) is in a retracted position in which it prevents a trailing edge (22) of the high-lift device (15) from detaching from an upper surface (19) of the fixed wing (7) when the fixed wing (7) deforms in the spanwise direction. One of the hold-down elements (29, 31) is a load-limited hold-down element (32) which transition from a first stable state to a second state when the load acting on the hold-down arrangement (27) exceeds an operational threshold.

    摘要: An aircraft wing including a mobile leading edge flap associated with a guiding device arranged at the front of a front spar of a wing box, and including: —a pivoting member having one end connected to the spar by an articulated linkage; —a pivoting member connected to one end of the member by an articulated linkage, the end of this member being connected to the flap via an articulated linkage; —a guide rail receiving a tracking member supported by the member, the rail defining a path inscribed on the surface of an imaginary sphere, the centre of which corresponds to a point of convergence of the axes of the three linkages.

    摘要: A wing (5) for an aircraft (1) and include a fixed wing (7), a high lift system (9) including a high lift surface (27) movably mounted to the fixed wing (7), and a high lift actuation system (29) for moving the high lift surface (27) relative to the fixed wing (7) between a retracted position and at least one deployed position, a foldable wing tip portion (11) mounted to the fixed wing (7) pivotally about an axis of rotation (35) between an extended position and a folded position, a tip actuation unit (13) for moving the foldable wing tip portion (11) between the extended position and the folded position. The object to provide a simple, cost-efficient and light-weight wing, is achieved in that the high lift actuation system (29) is drivingly coupled to the tip actuation unit (13) to provide power to the tip actuation unit (13)
