Linkage assemblies for aircraft wing hinged panels

Abstract:

Linkage assemblies for aircraft wing hinged panels are described herein. An example linkage assembly includes a flap follower arm coupled between a spoiler support beam and a flap, a rocker, a panel link coupled between the hinged panel and the rocker, and a cross-bar link coupled between the flap follower arm and the rocker. The flap follower arm, the rocker, the panel link, and the cross-bar link are configured to coordinate adjustment of positions of the hinged panel and the flap relative to each other.
