Abstract
An actuation device for moving a high lift of an aircraft surface relative to a wing body. The actuation device has a guiding linkage, configured for guiding a displacement of the high lift surface relative to the wing body, a rocker, configured to be moveable in rotation relative to the wing body, a rotational actuator, comprising a housing and an actuation element, the housing being fastened to the rocker and the actuation element being moveable in rotation relative to the housing, and an actuation linkage configured for displacing the rocker and the high lift surface relative to the wing body upon rotation of the actuation element relatively to the housing.
Claims15
An actuation mechanism for a high lift system configured for moving a high lift surface relative to a wing body, the actuation mechanism comprising:
- a guiding linkage configured to be connected to the high lift surface and for guiding a displacement of the high lift surface relative to the wing body;
- a rocker configured to be connected to the wing body and to move in rotation relative to the wing body;
- a rotational actuator comprising a housing and an actuation element, the housing fastened to the rocker and the actuation element configured to move in rotation relative to the housing;
- and
- an actuation linkage connected to the actuation element and configured to be connected to the high lift surface and to the wing body, the actuation linkage configured for displacing the rocker and the high lift surface relative to the wing body upon rotation of the actuation element relatively to the housing.
