More Information
Summary:Aircraft assemblies comprise an aerostructure, a sealing structure, and a flexure spring. The aerostructure comprises an end surface. The flexure spring is operably coupled between the aerostructure and the sealing structure and is configured to urge the sealing structure away from the end surface of the aerostructure. The flexure spring has a neutral configuration and a range of deflected configurations. The flexure spring is biased toward the neutral configuration.
