Noise reduced and rib assembly for a high-lift device of an aircraft

摘要

An end rib assembly for a high-lift device of an aircraft to reduce the noise caused by the transition between the wing and a high-lift device as well as the noise caused by the lateral side edge of the end rib assembly. An end rib assembly includes a noise-reducing portion configured to reduce noise caused by an airflow around the end rib assembly, and a guiding portion configured for guiding the end rib assembly along a pre-determined path when the high-lift device is moved between a retracted position and an extended position, wherein the guiding portion is formed such that an airflow impinging on the guiding portion is partly guided towards the noise-reducing portion.
