Abstract
Disclosed is a jig for the modelling of at least one section of an aircraft fuselage, with a framework structure and with a multiplicity of adapters for the connection of stiffening elements to the framework structure, which can be moved relative to the framework structure, and/or with a multiplicity of adapters for the modelling of profiles of stiffening elements, which can be moved relative to the framework structure.
Claims14
A jig for modelling at least one section of an aircraft fuselage comprising:
- a framework structure including a multiplicity of framework elements extending in a transverse direction of the fuselage;
- wherein the framework structure includes longitudinal guideways for moving the framework elements in a longitudinal direction of the fuselage;
- wherein the framework elements are slidably mounted on the longitudinal guideways such that individual spacings between the framework elements can be steplessly adjusted;
- a first multiplicity of adapters for connection of stiffening elements to the framework structure, which are attached to the framework elements and which can be moved relative to the framework elements;
- and
- a second multiplicity of adapters embodied as fuselage frame emulators for simulating a frame profile, which are attached to the framework elements and which are movable relative to the framework elements.
