ABSTRACT:
A hydrofoil flap control rod system for communicating forces between an actuator and a hydrofoil flap. Guide (40), having a rectangular conduit defined by its guide surfaces (66, 72, 74 and 88), accommodates a rectangular-shaped control rod (36) upon which wear pads (42) are mounted. Simple planar machining requirements of the guide and control rod reduce the time and cost of construction of the system. One element (76) of the guide (40) is readily detached to allow lateral removal of the control rod (36) for maintenance and repair, negating the need for substantial axial clearance for rod removal.
