Wing Adjustments TRIZ Cases
- Wing Hinge Latch Mechanism for Folding Without Added Drag
A hinge with pin latching and a lock-plate lets a wing fold for reduced span without adding the weight, thickness, and drag of bulky actuators.
- Aperiodic Shape-Morphing Lattices With Damage-Tolerant Revolute Joints
Aperiodic tiled lattices place revolute joints at normalized vertex positions to enable distortion-free morphing with stress resistance and damage tolerance.
- Morphing Wing Linkage With Streamlined Feathers for Aerodynamics
A retractable link mechanism and nested streamlined flight feathers improve deployed wing aerodynamics while keeping the wing compact for flight and transport.
- Pivoting Thrust Subunits for Stable Hover Flight Control
Independent thrust groups create counter-torque to redirect thrust without heavy pivot actuators, improving hover stability under gusts.
