<p>A slat support assembly is disclosed. It comprises a slat support arm (3) having a plurality of bearing surfaces (28a, 28b, 29a, 29b) extending along its length, the slat (2) support arm being movable to deploy a slat attached to one end (4) of said slat support arm from a leading edge of an aircraft wing (1), and a plurality of bearings (27a, 27b, 31a, 31b) mountable within the wing, each bearing being in rolling contact with an associated bearing surface to support the slat support arm and guide it during deployment and retraction of the slat. At least some of the bearing surfaces and associated bearings are configured so that each bearing counteracts load applied to the slat support arm in more than one direction.</p> |
