Abstract:
A method for installing a wiring harness in an aircraft. The method comprises using cables having first ends secured to the harness and winding means onto each of which is wound one of said cables so as to lift up said harness by exerting a tensile force. The first ends of the cables are distributed along at least a section of the harness so as to distribute the tensile forces over the section.
Abstract:
An air intake system for an aircraft having a ventral fairing and comprising a scoop having a ventral wall with a first coupling and an opening. The scoop is movable between a flush position in which the ventral wall is flush with the ventral fairing and a catchment position in which the opening is beneath the ventral fairing, and the ventral wall is pierced by a through hole designed to be connected to a flexible pipe of an air conditioning unit. A hatch is movably mounted on the scoop between an open position not blocking the opening and a closed position blocking the opening, the open position can be attained only when the scoop is in the catchment position. A return element forces the hatch into the closed position, and a plug has a second coupling which cooperates with the first coupling to removably secure the plug.
Abstract:
An integral avionics bay module. The module has a structure that has an integral cabin floor on top that closes the structure. Installing such an integral avionics bay structure in a single operation inside a primary fuselage structure considerably reduces the integration time on the final assembly line for the aircraft.
Abstract:
A ventilation system for an avionics bay has two strut assemblies for stiffening the floor of the cockpit, each strut assembly being arranged symmetrically regarding to the central plane of the aircraft, and means of distribution of the blowing air in the cabinets of the bay from the strut assemblies. The extraction circuit includes exhaust ducts integrated in the cabinets and couples together by tight inter-cabinets junctions in an overall configuration of maximized compactness.
Abstract:
A power breaker strip comprising a strip support and a plurality of interphase spacer elements, and a plurality of interline spacer elements, assembled with the plurality of interphase spacer elements such that each interline spacer element extends at least partly between two consecutive interphase spacer elements. The interphase spacer elements and the interline spacer elements together delimit a plurality of per pitch zones of the strip in which connection terminals of several lines of electrical cables can be inserted.
Abstract:
A headrest includes a first part referred to as the lower part, equipped with a connecting unit enabling an adjustable connection of the headrest to the seat back of a pilot seat, and a second part referred to as the upper part, located opposite the lower part, as well as a front face intended to serve as a support surface for the head of a user. A receptacle, connected to the mask, stores an oxygen mask and/or a supply line. The upper part of the headrest forms a hinged cover on the lower part of the headrest and it closes the receptacle. A seat, a cockpit, and an aircraft include such headrest.
Abstract:
An electrical and electronics bay of an aircraft comprising two rows of elements, each row being separated by a single corridor and comprising at least one set of systems elements and at least one electrical power center, the systems elements being arranged in cabinets. At least one of the cabinets comprises mobile shelves for allowing access to the back of the cabinets by crossing it. This architecture makes it possible to increase the density of the elements present in the bay while observing the principles of redundancy and segregation.
Abstract:
A cockpit for an aircraft nose, the cockpit having a floor that acts solely as a floor for the crew to walk on and that is lower than the height of the cabin floor situated behind the cockpit. The cockpit also has a stair connected to the floor in order to enter and leave the cockpit. This arrangement enlarges the volume of the cockpit and enables equipment to be housed therein that previously used to be housed in the zone that is difficult to access that is situated under the cockpit and that also contains the bay for storing landing gear.
Abstract:
An aircraft includes at least one wall delimiting a first zone (I) of the aircraft which is thermally insulated from the outside of the aircraft and a second zone (E) contained within the aircraft which is not thermally insulated with respect to the outside of the aircraft and a heat exchanger inside which a heat transfer fluid circulates, wherein the wall includes at least one duct inside which the heat transfer fluid circulates so as to act as a heat exchanger.
Abstract:
This aircraft nose structure comprises frames (2, 4, 6), a lower windshield frame member (12) and an upper windshield frame member (14) which are adapted to receive a windshield.The lower windshield frame member (12) has an arcuate shape with two branches which are connected together by a tie-rod (26).
