Abstract
A movable panel such as an aileron is connected to a load-bearing structure such as a wing of an aircraft by hinges which comprise flexible, elastic plates which are juxtaposed and are provided at opposite angles so as to allow the panel to rotate in an easy manner in response to the movements of an actuator; the hinges are, however, rigid in regard to other loads, such as aerodynamic suction loads, such that inadmissible travel of the panel is avoided.
