Device for transferring in an stiffened skin of an aircraft component made of a composite material the load of an stringer (16) to the skin (11) in a stringer run-out zone, the stringer (16) being configured by a web (31) and a foot (33), comprising two brackets (40, 40′) configured as unitary parts by webs (41, 41′) to be joined to each side of the stringer web (31) in said run-out zone and feet (43, 43′) having a first section (45, 45′) to be joined to each side of the stringer foot (33) in said run-out zone and a second section (47, 47′) to be joined to the skin (11). An aircraft component made of a composite material using said device in the stringer run-outs
A device for transferring in an stiffened skin of an aircraft component made of a composite material the load of an stringer (16) to the skin (11) in a stringer run-out zone, the stringer (16) being configured by a web (31) and a foot (33), characterized by comprising two brackets (40, 40′) configured as unitary parts by webs (41, 41′) to be joined to each side of the stringer web (31) in said run-out zone and feet (43, 43′) having a first section (45, 45′) to be joined to each side of the stringer foot (33) in said run-out zone and a second section (47, 47′) to be joined to the skin (11).
An aircraft component made of a composite material comprising a skin (11) stiffened by a plurality of stringers configured by a web (31) and a foot (33), the component having at least one stringer (16) terminating at the proximity of another structural element in a run-out zone, characterized in that also comprise two brackets (40, 40′) for transferring the stringer load in said run-out zone to the skin (11), each bracket (40, 40′) being configured as an unitary part by a web (41, 41′) joined to each side of the stringer web (31) in said run-out zone and by a foot (43, 43′) having a first section (45, 45′) joined to each side of the stringer foot (33) in said run-out zone and a second section (47, 47′) joined to the skin (11).
