Abstract
An adjustment mechanism of a device for coupling a flap to a wing of an aerofoil and for adjusting the flap. The adjustment mechanism includes: a first lever, hinged to the wing via a first rotational joint to form a first axis of rotation; a second lever; a third lever, hingedly coupled to the second lever via a second rotational joint to form a second axis of rotation and hingedly coupled to the flap via a fourth rotational joint; and a push-pull rod, which is connected via a first ball joint to the second lever and via a second ball joint to the flap. The first lever and the second lever are hingedly coupled to one another via a middle joint to form a third axis of rotation. The first, second and third axes of rotation in each position of the flap run through a common pole.
