157 Air ejection device comprising an aerodynamic profile provided with a slot obturating flexible tongue US14561488 2014-12-05 US09656742B2 2017-05-23 Julien Guillemaut; Arnaud Hormiere; Jerome Colmagro; Cesar Garnier
An air ejection device comprises an aerodynamic profile provided with a slot and an ejection nozzle. The device comprises a flexible tongue fixed flush with the aerodynamic profile in such a way as to obstruct the slot, the tongue being able to lift under the effect of a pressure differential between the air situated in the ejection nozzle and the outside air. The tongue makes it possible for the slot made in the profile to be obstructed during phases of flight during which the ejection of the air is unnecessary, and prevents external air from entering the slot. The flow of air over the aerodynamic profile is unaffected, and there is no increase in drag. Because the tongue lifts as a result of a pressure differential, it does not require any control mechanism to lift it.
