Abstract:
The invention relates to a fuselage cell structure of an aircraft for the simplified installation and attachment of at least one fastener for at least one conduit, the fuselage cell structure having a large number of reinforcing elements formed in particular using an aluminum alloy material. According to the invention, the reinforcing elements within the fuselage cell structure are provided with at least one groove in which the fasteners can be secured by producing a combined pressing and clamping fit creating a positive fit at least in certain regions. For this purpose, the fasteners can have at the lower face thereof, for example, two retaining feet which can be spread apart and attached by driving a fixing element into the groove. The reinforcing elements are continuous stringers preferably produced by extrusion and cross-bars, the required grooves being simultaneously extruded during the production process.
