| 20080226818 | Method for Through Repair of a Composite Structure Comprising Three Skins and Two Core Layers - A method for through-repair of a composite material structure. Repair portions, established through two core layers, for example as a honeycomb and three polymer skins, including two external skins and a middle skin inserted between the core layers to obtain a composite structure, are set up and the polymer is hardened in vacuum. A counter-form is pressed onto one of the skins to guarantee a good aspect and surface quality. Vents are provided through the middle skin and possibly through the skin receiving the counter-form for proper degassing of the underlying cellular core. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20100276536 | LIGHTNING PROTECTION SYSTEM AND AIRCRAFT COMPRISING SUCH A SYSTEM - An anti-lightning system for a composite structure having an external surface configured to be subjected to an air flow, the aforementioned system including at least one electrically conducting strip and fasteners attaching this strip to the aforementioned structure. According to the disclosed embodiments, with this structure including holes configured to accept the fastenings for the strip, at least some these fastenings comprise an attachment element that attaches the lightning to this structure. This attachment element is configured to be inserted in the hole with its upper part substantially flush with the external surface of the structure, this attachment element being in electrical contact with the electrically conducting strip. The electrically conducting strip is configured to be positioned on the opposite side of the structure to the external surface and electrically earthed. | 11-04-2010 |
| 20110056718 | ANTI-LIGHTNING SYSTEM AND AIRCRAFT COMPRISING SUCH A SYSTEM - An anti-lightning system for a composite structure having an external surface liable to be subjected to an air flow, the aforementioned system including at least one electrically conducting strip and fasteners fastening the aforementioned strip to the structure, the aforementioned strip being electrically connected to an electrical earth for removing current. According the disclosed embodiments, the aforementioned strip has a shape intended to collaborate with a housing created at the aforementioned external surface so that the external surface of the strip lies flush with the aforementioned external surface of the structure, and the aforementioned fasteners include an upper part flush with the external surface of the strip. | 03-10-2011 |
