Patent ID: 8596585

Claim:
An aerodynamic body comprising an extension in the spanwise direction, wing chord direction, and wing thickness direction for coupling to a wing of an aircraft, the aerodynamic body comprising: a main body structure with a front side, which has a dimensionally stable convex curvature, and a rear side, which has a dimensionally stable concave curvature, and a skin section for influencing the flow at the rear side of the main body structure, which is connected by a first connection device and a second connection device with the main body structure, and configured in such a way as to be at least partially flexible as well as reversibly molded between a folded-in dimensional state with a first curvature and a folded-out dimensional state with a second curvature, and that at least sections of the first curvature are concave, and at least sections of the second curvature are convex, in relation to the main body structure, wherein the skin section is movable between the folded-in dimensional state and the folded-out dimensional state in reaction to one or more changes in air pressure of a cavity disposed between the main body structure and the skin section.
