Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A rotary actuated high lift gapped aileron system and method are presented. A high lift gapped aileron couples to an airfoil at a hinge line and changes a camber of the airfoil. A rotary actuator coupled to the high lift gapped aileron produces a rotary motion of the high lift gapped aileron in response to an actuation command. A droop panel positioned over the hinge line enhances lift of the high lift gapped aileron. A cove lip door positioned under the hinge line provides an airflow over the high lift gapped aileron. A deployment linkage mechanism coupled to the high lift gapped aileron positions the droop panel and the cove lip door in response to the rotary motion.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A rotary actuated high lift gapped aileron system, comprising: a high lift gapped aileron coupled to an airfoil at a hinge line; a rotary actuator coupled to the high lift gapped aileron at the hinge line, the rotary actuator operable to produce a rotary motion to rotate the high lift gapped aileron about the hinge line in response to an actuation command; a droop panel positioned over the hinge line; a cove lip door positioned under the hinge li…
