Abstract
A trailing-edge flap system for a wing of an aircraft comprises a trailing-edge flap, a guide rail attached to the trailing-edge flap, a carriage slidably engaging the guide rail and rotatably attachable to a fixed position on the wing structure, and a drive means coupled the wing structure to a first joint on the guide rail. The drive means is configured to move the trailing-edge flap relative to the wing structure by moving the guide rail along the carriage by moving the first joint relative to the wing structure, such that the trailing-edge flap translates and rotates. The trailing-edge flap is at least movable into a cruise position, a high-lift position and an air brake position.
