Wing for an aircraft having a simplified movable aerodynamic surface and a flexible sealing

摘要

A wing for an aircraft includes a wing structure attachable to a body of an aircraft, at least one high lift body movably supported at the wing structure, a drive unit coupled with the wing structure and the high lift body and adapted to move the high lift body relative to the wing structure in a chordwise direction between a retracted position and an extended position, and a sealing device coupled with the high lift body and the wing structure. The high lift body comprises at least one outer edge facing to the wing structure, which at least one outer edge creates a gap to the wing structure at least in an extended position. The sealing device includes a flexible sealing body, which seals the intermediate space between the high lift body and the wing structure in extended positions of the high lift body.
