Abstract: A flow body for an aircraft with a leading edge and a trailing edge includes a first spar, a second spar, and an external skin that spans from the leading edge to the trailing edge and on both sides rests on the spars. At least one of the first spar and the second spar includes a web and two spaced-apart flanges that enclose the web, on which flanges the skin that spans the respective spar is arranged. At least one of the first spar and the second spar includes at least one load introduction fin that forms an integral component with the web and extends outwards by way of one of the flanges and the skin that rests on the spars.

Abstract: A load-bearing fairing element for a flap adjustment mechanism of an aircraft comprises a shell-shaped fairing housing with an at least partly U-shaped profile with an open side, a closed side, and a direction of main extension, at least one first cover panel that along the direction of main extension covers part of the open side, and a load-bearing bridge element. The bridge element is arranged in the fairing housing and with a base area conforms so as to be flush against an internal surface of the fairing housing and extends towards the open side. The bridge element comprises an essentially planar cover area that covers the base area on the open side in order to produce a closed profile contour that is circumferential on the direction of main extension. The bridge element comprises means for holding a shaft feed-in of a central flap drive and means for holding an adjustment mechanism that is couplable to the shaft feed-in.

Abstract: An adjustment mechanism of a device for coupling a flap to a wing of an aerofoil and for adjusting the flap. The adjustment mechanism includes: a first lever, hinged to the wing via a first rotational joint to form a first axis of rotation; a second lever; a third lever, hingedly coupled to the second lever via a second rotational joint to form a second axis of rotation and hingedly coupled to the flap via a fourth rotational joint; and a push-pull rod, which is connected via a first ball joint to the second lever and via a second ball joint to the flap. The first lever and the second lever are hingedly coupled to one another via a middle joint to form a third axis of rotation. The first, second and third axes of rotation in each position of the flap run through a common pole.
