Abstract
To facilitate the thermophonic insulation of an aircraft section, a method comprises engaging first respective parts of flexible structures, respectively connected to two flat mattresses, with a support device, by leaving free respective second parts of the flexible structures arranged at a distance from the first parts, then curving the two mattresses, by virtue of the mutual bringing together of the second parts, then inserting the support device into the aircraft section, and detaching each mattress from the support device and fixing each mattress to an aircraft structure delimiting the aircraft section.
Claims15
A method for thermophonically insulating an aircraft section, comprising:
- providing two mattresses;
- fixing a separate respective flexible structure onto each of the mattresses;
- engaging first respective parts of the flexible structures with a support device, by leaving free respective second parts of the flexible structures arranged at a distance from the first parts;
- mutually bringing together the respective second parts of the flexible structures resulting in bending of the flexible structures and curvature of the mattresses in respective directions orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of each of the mattresses, while the support device retains the first respective parts of the flexible structures one relative to the other in a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction;
- locking a resulting position of the second parts so as to maintain the flexible structures in a bent conformation and the mattresses in a curved conformation;
- inserting the support device supporting the flexible structures that are respectively secured to the mattresses into the aircraft section;
- detaching each of the mattresses from the support device and fixing each of the mattresses to an aircraft structure delimiting the aircraft section;
- removing the support device outside the aircraft section.
