Abstract

A continuous moldline technology elastomeric control surface and methods are presented. A control surface (302) is coupled to a fluid-dynamic body (314). An elastomer interface (304) is coupled to the control surface (302) and the fluid-dynamic body (314) such that a joint gap (410) caused by movement of the control surface (302) relative to the fluid-dynamic body (314) is filled.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to continuous moldline technology. More specifically, embodiments of the present disclosure relate to continuous profile technology control surfaces. Background technique [0002] When the flight control surfaces move they usually create gaps which in turn cause additional airframe noise, reduced aerodynamics and increased drag. For example, when approaching a landing, gaps may be exposed during the pitch and roll motion of the flight control surfaces to change the direction of flight. Exposing any gaps or edges can increase noise and reduce aerodynamic efficiency and / or increase drag. Contents of the invention [0003] A continuous profile technology elastomer control surface and method are proposed. The control surfaces are connected to the hydro-dynamic body. An elastomeric interface is connected to the control surface and the hydrodynamic body so that joint gaps caused by movement of the ...
