1. An airfoil for an aircraft including at least one aerodynamic body that can be adjusted relative to a main wing of the aircraft by means of an adjusting device, wherein a gap between the at least one aerodynamic body and another aerodynamic body or a component of the fuselage or the main wing is formed on one lateral end and said gap is variable due to the adjustability of the at least one aerodynamic body, featuring a gap bridge-over device with a shell part that extends along the gap and overlaps an outer shell of the at least one aerodynamic body in a wingspread direction on the front side thereof in such a way that the shell part can be telescopically moved relative to the at least one aerodynamic body in the wingspread direction wherein:
the gap bridge-over device features a coupling rib that is connected to the shell part, the coupling rib having a first side opposite a second side, and a first coupling device for coupling the first side of the coupling rib to a structural component of the at least one aerodynamic body and a second coupling device, and the first coupling device features at least one first connecting part that extends transverse to a chord direction and at least one second connecting part that extends transverse to a chord direction, the at least one first connecting part spaced apart from the at least one second connecting part in the chord direction, said at least one first connecting part is coupled to the first side of the coupling rib by means of an articulated connection that is constrained to extend substantially along a longitudinal direction of the at least one first connecting part and the at least one first connecting part is extendable along the longitudinal direction of the at least one first connecting part in order to displace the shell part in the wingspread direction, said at least one second connecting part is coupled to the first side of the coupling rib by means of an articulated connection that is constrained to extend substantially along a longitudinal direction of the at least one second connecting part and the at least one second connecting part is extendable along the longitudinal direction of the at least one second connecting part in order to displace the shell part in the wingspread direction, said at least one first connecting part is formed as a rod which is guided for telescopic linear movement in the longitudinal direction of the at least one first connecting part and in the wingspread direction on the at least one aerodynamic body, said at least one second connecting is formed as a rod which is guided for telescopic linear movement in the longitudinal direction of the at least one second connecting part and in the wingspread direction on the at least one aerodynamic body, and the second coupling device includes at least two connecting rods that are arranged spaced apart from one another in the chord direction, each of the at least two connecting rods including a first end and a second end, the first end of each of the at least two connecting rods including an articulation to couple the first end of each of the at least two connecting rods to the at least one aerodynamic body and the second end of each of the at least two connecting rods including an articulation to couple the second end of each of the at least two connecting rods to the second side of the coupling rib. |
