This patent discloses a wing pivot assembly for variable sweep wing aircraft for moveably securing a wing of the aircraft to the fuselage. The wing pivot assembly has a pivot pin supported by a pair of inboard lugs secured to the fuselage of the aircraft. The wing is, in turn, moveably secured to the pivot pin by bearings interposed between the pivot pin and a pair of outboard lugs. In addition an outboard shear fitting located between the wing and the pivot pin moveably supports the wing and transfers shear loads to the pivot pin. An inboard shear fitting and anti-rotation device secures and transfers shear loads between the pivot pin and the fuselage. As a result of the above arrangement a multi-load path structure provides for a fail-safe pivot assembly.
