Title: Profiled wing unit of an aircraft
Inventor: BURCHARD ALEXANDER
IPC: B64C1/00
Filed: 2003-12-10
Abstract: The deformation characteristic of a profiled aerodynamic aircraft component is improved by forming ridges in the top and bottom skin of the component. Two ridges form a pair in which the bottom ridge is at least partially nested in the top ridge to the extent that the ridges are bonded to each other in a trailing edge area of the component along a width extending in the depth or y-direction of the component. The ridges taper from the trailing edge area toward the leading edge of the component and the forward ridge end merges into the respective skin at a point spaced form the leading edge. The ridges function as ribs and strengthen the component while making it flexible for minimizing the introduction of compulsion forces when the component is deflected.
