Foldable Sealing for a moveable fairing Aircraft design and manufacture Invention can be used as a way keep the gap closed between fixed and moveable fairing. It allows movement and rotation of the moveable fairing vs the fixed fairing Connection between two tram carriages. (Also for some extended busses) Hand Fans The idea provides the possibility to integrate close the gap between a fixed and movable faring while allowing relative movement and rotation with regard to each other. It is a solution for a flap module design. But can also be used for other aircraft designs. More design freedom for movable fairing attachment is achieved. The design can use the top or bottom of the fairing as attachment point. 1.Less complex connection, avoid pivot tube design. 2.Lower interface forces because fairing connection points can be further apart. 3.Less complex, less loads, lower weight and lower cost Gap closure 1.Closure of the gap, improving aero performance. 2.Closure of the gap, avoiding entry of dirt from runways etc. 3.Passive solution, does not need external actuation source. 4.Protect system inside the fairing.
