Intelligent variant aircraft is an important development trend in the future aerospace field, which is of great significance to improve the comprehensive performance of aircraft. Most of the current deformable wing schemes are mainly mechanical or rigid-flexible coupled mechanisms, but it is difficult to meet the practical engineering needs in terms of continuous deformation and load bearing at multiple target points. Intelligent deformed wing based on mechanical metamaterial structure and traditional driving mechanism is the easiest and most potential scheme at present. In view of this, a lightweight distributed variable thickness structure based on reversible assembly of mechanical metamaterial is proposed in this paper. The structure consists of three basic deformed lattice, one active deformed cell and one transitional cell. Firstly, the deformation mechanism of the three types of basic cells were analyzed through simulation and related mechanical properties characterization experiments. The results show that the rigidity of the three base voxels is very different, and the Poisson’s ratio covers the range from negative to positive, which verifies its rationality as the base voxels of deformed structures. Secondly, according to the actual curved airfoil profile, the transition cell structure is designed and manufactured to complete the structural design and verification of intelligent deformed wings. The experimental results show that the deformation increment of the deformed wing is about 5% of the chord length and the deformation error is about 3.95%, which lays a foundation for the accurate deformation of the distributed deformed wing structure.
