摘要: Provided are stiffened stringer panels with integrated shim structures. An example composite panel comprises a skin member having an inner surface, and a stringer positioned on the inner surface. The stringer comprises a first flange portion and a second flange portion with the first flange portion and the second flange portion contacting the inner surface. The composite panel further comprises an integrated shim positioned on the first flange portion. The integrated shim may comprise a sacrificial material configured to be trimmed to the desired geometry. The sacrificial material may comprise a glass fiber reinforced plastic fabric pre-impregnated with resin. The integrated shim may be configured to interface with internal support structures of a wing assembly. The integrated shim may be configured to he machined to fit dimensions and measurements corresponding to the internal support structures of the wing assembly.

摘要: A solid laminate stringer includes a base segment that forms a first generally trapezoidal cross section. The solid laminate stringer also includes a transition segment abutting the base segment, with concave sides that are continuous with the sides of the base segment. The solid laminate stringer also includes a top segment abutting the transition segment, where the top segment forms a second generally trapezoidal cross section with sides that are continuous with the concave sides of the transition segment. The solid laminate stringer also includes a first overwrap layer covering the top segment, the transition segment, and at least a portion of the base segment. The solid laminate stringer also includes a second overwrap layer overlapping at least a portion of the first overwrap layer covering the base segment.

摘要: A fastening system to couple a first aircraft structure and a second aircraft structure is disclosed. The fastening system includes a fastener, a nutplate having a body defining an opening to receive the fastener, a flange extending from the body to engage an outer surface of the first structure, and a first sleeve protruding from the flange in a direction away from the body, the first sleeve to couple to a first bore formed in the first structure and prevents rotation of the nutplate relative to the first structure.

摘要: Aircraft wings and aircraft including such aircraft wings are disclosed. An example apparatus includes an aircraft wing having a first panel; a second panel; ribs coupled between the first and second panels; and stiffeners coupled between the ribs in a spanwise direction and to the first panel, the coupling between the stiffeners and the first panel to deter axial loads from being received by the stiffeners, the stiffeners to increase a compressional stability of the first panel, wherein the coupling between the stiffeners and the first panel are indirect couplings formed via clips, the couplings formed via the clips deter the axial loads from being received by the stiffeners while increasing the compressional stability of the first panel.
