Wing for an aircraft

A trailing edge high lift assembly comprising:

• a flap comprising a leading edge part and a trailing edge part pivotably mounted to the leading edge part such that the trailing edge part pivots about a pivot axis, and
• a connection assembly configured to moveably mount the flap to a main wing such that the flap is movable between a retracted position and at least one extended position,
• wherein the connection assembly comprises an actuator unit configured to move the flap between the retracted position and the at least one extended position,
• wherein the actuator unit is mounted to the leading edge part of the flap, to a flap lever arm mounted to the leading edge part of the flap or to the main wing,
• wherein the actuator unit comprises a motor configured to drive a first output of the actuator and drive a second output of the actuator independently to the driving of the first output,
• wherein the actuator unit is configured to pivot, using the first output, the trailing edge part relative to the leading edge part independently of the movement of the flap, using the second output, between the retracted position and the at least one extended position, and
• wherein the actuator unit is configured to move the flap, using the second output, between the retracted position and the at least one extended position independently of the pivoting, using the first output, of the trailing edge part relative to the leading edge part.

A wing for an aircraft comprising

• a main wing,
• a flap positioned proximate a trailing edge of the main wing, wherein the flap comprises a leading edge part and a trailing edge part pivotably mounted to the leading edge part, and
• a connection assembly attached to the main wing and the flap, wherein the connection assembly is configured to move the flap between a retracted position relative to the main wing and at least one extended position relative to the main wing, wherein the connection assembly comprises:
• an actuator unit mounted to the main wing or flap and configured to move the flap between the retracted position and the at least one extended position and pivot the trailing edge part relative to the leading edge part independently of moving the flap between the retracted position and the at least one extended position,
• one motor included in the actuator unit, wherein the motor drives a first output and a second output, wherein the second output and first output are driven independently by the motor;
• a first linkage connected to the motor and to the trailing edge part of the flap, wherein first output moves the first linkage to pivot the trailing edge part about the leading edge part of the flap, and
• a second linkage connected to the motor and to the leading edge part of the flap or to the main wing, wherein the second output moves the second linkage to move the flap between the retracted position and the at least one extended position.
