Abstract

See full text

A wing leading edge slat actuation and positioning system, wherein a slat panel is connected to one end of an extensible track member which is supported and guided at its other end, by rollers mounted to fixed structure in the leading edge section of the wing. The actuation and positioning system comprises a unified drive and a programming mechanism which is connected to the slat panel and functions to combine an aerodynamic slot opening or closure operation with a slat extension drive mechanism. The unified drive and programming mechanism comprises a contoured camtrack somewhat in the shape of an S-camtrack and having a roller follower which is connected to a link and drive arm; and this combination allows synchronization of slat actuation with programming control of slat angle-of-deflection and aerodynamic slot opening or closure.
