Abstract

An aerodynamic sealing includes: an elastic first sealing wall extending between a first bottom edge and a first tip edge; an elastic second sealing wall extending between a second bottom edge and a second tip edge, and extending convergent with respect to the first sealing wall, so that the first and second sealing walls are joined together at their first and second tip edges to form a tip line; a bottom element connecting the first bottom edge to the second bottom edge, wherein the bottom element is joined to both the first sealing wall and the second sealing wall; and a plurality of stiffening elements connecting the first sealing wall to the second sealing wall between the tip line and the bottom element, wherein the stiffening elements are spaced apart from one another and joined to both the first sealing wall and the second sealing wall.
