Abstract
A device for bracing a shell surface in an aircraft fuselage against deformations and consisting of a continuous profile that is arranged so as, after conformation, to be mounted against the shell surface. Notches are spaced at regular distances apart from each other in at least a portion of the profile. The notches extend through a base surface in the profile, and through an intermediate part perpendicular to the base surface. The notches are delimited upwardly by an upper surface that is not encompassed by the notches.
Claims2
A device for bracing a shell surface in an aircraft fuselage against deformations and comprising a continuous profile that is arranged so as, after conformation, to be mounted against the shell surface, said device comprising:
- at least one base surface that is arranged so as to lie against the shell surface;
- at least one upper part parallel to said at least one base surface, said at least one upper part having a substantially rectangular cross-section;
- and
- said at least one perpendicular intermediate part connecting the base surface and at least one upper part, wherein the profile has notches along at least a portion of the length of the profile spaced at a regular distance from each other, which notches extend at least through the at least one base surface and through the entirety of the at least one intermediate part, and wherein the notches are delimited upwardly by said at the least one upper part, which at least one upper part is not encompassed by said notches.
