STOP PADS FOR AIRCRAFT FOLDING WING TIPS

Stop pads for aircraft folding wing tips are described herein. An example aircraft wing includes a fixed wing portion and a wing tip moveably coupled to the fixed wing portion about a hinge axis. Thewing tip is moveable between an extended position and a folded position. The aircraft wing also includes a first stop pad coupled to the fixed wing portion, the first stop pad having a first contact surface, and a second stop pad coupled to the wing tip, the second stop pad having a second contact surface. The first and second contact surfaces are to engage each other when the wing tip is in the extended position. A contact plane between the first and second contact surfaces is coplanar with the hinge axis. 本文描述了用于飞行器折叠式翼尖的止动垫。示例性飞行器机翼包括固定翼部分和翼尖，翼尖围绕铰链轴线被可移动地联接到固定翼部分。翼尖可在伸展位置和折叠位置之间移动。飞行器机翼还包括被联接到固定翼部分的第一止动垫和被联接到翼尖的第二止动垫，第一止动垫具有第一接触表面，第二止动垫具有第二接触表面。当翼尖处于伸展位置时，第一接触表面和第二接触表面将彼此接合。第一接触表面和第二接触表面之间的接触平面与铰链轴线共面。
