Abstract
The invention relates to a bar (10) for a braked aircraft wheel (103), the bar being for fitting to a rim (104) of the wheel in order to drive rotor brake disks (106b) in rotation. The bar comprises a substantially rectilinear body (11) having at least one segment (14) including two wings (15) connected together by a core (16) and intended to co-operate with the rotor disks. At least one brace element (17) connects a free edge of each of the wings to a central portion of the core.
Claims17
A bar for a braked aircraft wheel, the bar being for fitting to a rim of the wheel in order to drive rotor brake disks in rotation, the bar comprising:
- a substantially rectilinear body having at least one segment including two wings which have:
- inside faces that are connected together by a core extending from the inside face of one of the two wings to the inside face of the other of the two wings, and
- outside faces that are opposed to the inside faces and intended to co-operate with the rotor disks,
- wherein the bar includes at least one brace element connecting a free edge of the inside face of one of the two wings to a central portion of the core without connecting the rest of the one of the two wings to the rest of the core, the brace element being integrally formed with said free edge and said central portion and defining with the core and said one of the two wings only one channel that extends in a longitudinal direction relative to the body and has a closed cross-section.
