Abstract:
An aircraft nose comprising a primary fuselage structure, and housed inside said structure, a cockpit, and an avionics bay containing a plurality of avionics racks designed to receive electrical and/or electronic equipment. The cockpit and the avionics bay are each made in the form of a distinct module that is suitable for being installed in a single operation inside the primary fuselage structure. The use of modules for integrating in the aircraft nose makes it possible to reduce considerably the time required for fitting out the nose on the final assembly line of the aircraft.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an aircraft cockpit with a double flight deck in which a central pane of a windscreen can be removed in order to at least partially clear an opening in order to constitute an emergency exit and ensure natural ventilation of the cockpit. Moreover, a central portion of a glare shield and of a flight station instrument panel are optionally moveable in order to facilitate access to the opening in the event of the need for emergency evacuation.
Abstract:
A forward part of an aircraft comprising a fuselage and a landing gear well housing a forward landing gear comprising a breaker strut designed to adopt an extended configuration when the landing gear is extended, configuration in which said breaker strut lies in a strut plane parallel to the transverse direction of the forward part. The forward part comprises a transverse beam resisting strut reactions located above the landing gear well and mounted on the fuselage at its two ends, the beam having a globally rectangular cross-section, in which the median plane parallel to the length of the rectangle is coincident with said strut plane.
Abstract:
A leaktight nose cone backplate for an aircraft having a first side oriented towards a radome zone intended to house a mobile antenna, and a second side opposite the first side and oriented towards a cockpit of the aircraft. The second side has at least one recess intended to receive at least one piece of cockpit equipment, each recess being partly delimited by a backplate structure forming a protrusion on the first side.
Abstract:
A piece of furniture for an aircraft, including a plurality of carriages a first section forming an interface of use for a user with which at least one carriage may be taken and/or deposited in the piece of furniture and a second section allowing the said carriages to be circulated along at least first and second main directions substantially perpendicular to each other, at least in a plane of the aircraft for storing and/or delivering to the user at least one carriage, the first section and/or the second section including an arrangement for distributing at least one carriage from the second section towards the first section and vice versa.
Abstract:
A toilet area for an aircraft cabin comprising an access door and housing a toilet bowl. The toilet area also comprises an evacuation exit, the access door occupying a closed position in the toilet area in a toilet configuration and a folded position in the toilet area in an evacuation configuration. Usage in particular in a flying wing aircraft is provided.
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 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.
