Abstract

See full text

A device for removing debris, such as insects and ice, from an aerodynamic structure of an aircraft and in which the aerodynamic structure has upper and lower surfaces separated by a leading edge extending along the length of the aerodynamic structure. The device includes a spine positionable so as to extend between the upper and lower surfaces over the leading edge of the aerodynamic structure, a scraping edge carried by the spine facing a direction that extends along the length, and a drive mechanism configured to move the spine in the direction so that the scraping edge scrapes debris from along the length of the aerodynamic structure. The spine is configured to bias the scraping edge against the aerodynamic structure.
