  • Patent number: 9797437
    Abstract: The invention pertains to a connecting device for connecting a first structural component and a second structural component that can be moved relative to the first structural component in an articulated fashion such that three rotatory degrees of freedom are provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 26, 2012
    Date of Patent: October 24, 2017
    Assignee: Airbus Operations GmbH
    Inventors: Werner Dyckrup, Hauke Harding
  • Patent number: 9573676
    Abstract: The invention concerns a device for a adjustable flap adjustably mounted on a main wing surface of an aeroplane wing, in particular, a landing flap, with at least one adjustment unit for purposes of adjustment of the adjustable flap, which has an actuator arranged, or that can be arranged, on the main wing surface, and has a kinematic adjustment mechanism running between the actuator and the adjustable flap, wherein the adjustable flap is mechanically coupled with the actuator via the kinematic adjustment mechanism. At least one damping unit for purposes of damping a dynamic loading effected by the adjustable flap on the adjustment unit, which can occur as a result of a critical malfunction event occurring in the region of the adjustable flap, is arranged, or can be arranged, between the main wing surface and the adjustable flap.

  • Patent number: 8931733
    Abstract: An aerodynamic body that can be adjusted relative to a main wing of an aircraft by an adjusting device is provided. A gap between the aerodynamic body and another aerodynamic body or a component of the fuselage or the main wing is formed on one lateral end and said and the gap is variable due to the adjustability of the aerodynamic body. The body features a gap bridge-over device with a shell part that extends along the gap and overlaps the outer shell of the aerodynamic body in the wingspread direction on the front side thereof so that the shell part can be telescopically moved relative to this aerodynamic body in the wingspread direction. An airfoil for an aircraft with a main wing and a plurality of aerodynamic bodies that are arranged adjacent to one another transverse to the chord direction is also provided.
