AIRFRAME AND METHOD FOR ASSEMBLING AN AIRFRAME
An airframe 1 or part thereof comprises a set of modular cells 10, including a first cell 10A comprising a set of profiles 100 including: a first structural profile 100A, having a first length L1 and enclosing a first volume V1 providing a first passageway P1; and a second profile 100B, having a second length L2 and enclosing a second volume V2, wherein the first passageway P1 is arranged to receive the second profile 100B therein.
Composite laminate for an airframe lifting surface and method for manufacturing thereof
A composite laminate for an airframe lifting surface including: at least two sides and one ramp area defined by a decreasing staggered laminate extended along a ramp direction, wherein the composite laminate includes: first plies formed by tapes arranged parallel to the ramp direction, second plies formed by tapes arranged orthogonal to the ramp direction, third plies formed by tapes arranged in a first laying up direction, being the first laying up direction different from the ramp direction and the direction orthogonal to the ramp direction, and fourth plies formed by tapes arranged in a second laying up direction, being the second laying up direction different from the ramp direction, the direction orthogonal to the ramp direction and the first laying up direction; wherein in the ramp area, the tapes forming the third and/or fourth plies are extended from one laminate side to another laminate side.
Isogrid patterns for structural aircraft panels
One embodiment includes a structural panel for an aerospace vehicle, including a single sheet of material, the material having a first raised pattern on a first side, and a second raised pattern on a reverse side, wherein a repeating portion of the first raised pattern is substantially identical in size and shape to a repeating portion of the second raised pattern, and is rotated at an angle θ to the first raised pattern.

Pilot and passenger seat
The present invention achieves technical advantages as a pilot and passenger seating. An aircraft employs a pilot seat, comprising a contoured structure having ergonomically formed and padded surfaces, with left and right arm supports that include an articulated control knob, movable in three rectangular axes and rotatable about a vertical axis to provide one or more aircraft steering functions for an aircraft, and a touch-sensitive control surface for controlling one or more power system components. A passenger seat, having a contoured structure, having ergonomically formed and padded surfaces, a headrest, a seat, a left support member, and a right support member are adapted to cradle a portion of a passenger's body to support the passenger during travel.
LINTEL STRUCTURE FOR AIRCRAFT FUSELAGE AND FUSELAGE COMPRISING SUCH A LINTEL
An aircraft fuselage includes a structure, considered in respect of all or part of the fuselage, with fuselage upper sub-structure constituting an upper part of the fuselage and a fuselage bottom sub-structure constituting a lower part of the fuselage. Openings in the structure of the fuselage are intended for the installation of windows or doors for exiting the fuselage. Furthermore, the fuselage upper sub-structure are the fuselage bottom sub-structure form fuselage sub-structures that are assembled with one another via at least one lintel in which all or some of the openings intended for installing the exit doors or windows are formed.
Interior component carrier system and method for mounting an interior component carrier system
An interior component carrier system comprises a first and second installation rail. Each rail includes at least one connecting portion connectable to an associated primary structure component to fasten the rail to the component, and a carrier portion extending from the connecting portion in a direction along a longitudinal axis of the system. The system further comprises a first carrier element having a first end connected to a first carrier rod extending in a direction along the longitudinal axis and a second end connectable to a first interior component, wherein the first carrier rod is fastened to the carrier portion of the first rail, and a second carrier element having a first end connected to a second carrier rod extending in the longitudinal axis direction and a second end connected to the first carrier element, wherein the second carrier rod is fastened to the second rail carrier portion.
