Patent number: 9976482Abstract: An antifreeze system for a pipework, the antifreeze system comprising a framework configured to be fixed to the pipework, and at least one thermally insulating sleeve maintained around the pipework by the framework. Each sleeve is configured so that a space is produced between the sleeve and the pipework. The framework has an inlet and an outlet which are configured to produce a fluid communication between the outer side of the antifreeze system and the space. The inlet is fluidly connected to a source of hot air. Such an antifreeze system thus enables a flow of hot air around the pipework which thus prevents the liquid which flows therein from freezing.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2015Date of Patent: May 22, 2018Assignee: AIRBUS OPERATIONS SASInventors: Didier Reynes, Christophe Casse

Patent number: 9499258Abstract: A device for concomitant opening or closing of two flaps of a door of an aircraft retractable landing gear. The device comprises a single actuating means for the opening or the closing of the two flaps under the effect of its extension or of its retraction. The actuating means comprises a first end linked to the structure of the aircraft, and a movable part. The device comprises a swinging arm comprising a first end linked by a pivot to the structure, and a second end linked to the movable part of the actuating means by a link having a degree of rotational freedom about an axis parallel to the axis of the pivot. The second end of the swinging arm is furthermore respectively linked to a first tie rod linked to a first of the two flaps, and to a second tie rod linked to a second of the two flaps.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2014Date of Patent: November 22, 2016Assignee: AIRBUS OPERATIONS SASInventors: Didier Reynes, Jerome Phalippou
