Abstract

612,369. Control surfaces for aircraft. MARTIN CO., G. L. May 22, 1946, No. 15480. Convention date, Nov. 4, 1942. [Class 4] A hinged control surface, more particularly an aileron 2, is mounted so that the axis 8 of its hinges 6, 7 lies approximately in the plane of the upper wing surface, and sealing members 9, 11 are provided between the hinges to prevent the flow of air through the passage between the control surface and wing. As shown, the sealing member 9 is provided with a bead 10 making line contact with the member 11. The nose portion of the aileron is so shaped that it does not project below the lower surface of the wing when the aileron is raised, but it carries a slat 12 which is projected into the lower airstream at a negative angle of incidence when the aileron is so operated.
