Drive mechanism for a deformable structure, structural component provided therewith and flow body and lift-assisting device

摘要

A drive mechanism for deforming a skin of a deformable structural component of a fluid-dynamic flow body to provide a space-saving drive concept for large deformations under great loads. The drive mechanism comprises a linearly movably driven linear movement unit, and a transmission element configured to translate linear movement of the linear movement unit into rotary movement of a rotatably mounted load introduction device of the structural component to introduce a deformation force onto the skin.

1. A drive mechanism for deforming a skin of a deformable structural component of a fluid-dynamic flow body, the drive mechanism comprising:
a linearly movably driven linear movement unit configured to move linearly in a linear movement direction; and a transmission element comprising a translation lever having a first end pivotally coupled at the linear movement unit about a first pivot axis transverse to the linear movement direction and a second end, opposite to the first end, pivotally coupled at a rotatable mounted load introduction device about a second pivot axis transverse to the linear movement direction, the translation lever being configured to translate the linear movement of the linear movement unit into second end linear movement of the second end of the translation lever, the second end linear movement being transverse to the linear movement of the linear movement unit and generating rotary movement of the rotatably mounted load introduction device to introduce a deformation force onto the skin of the structural component.
