  • Air intake structure for aircraft engine
    Patent number: 6328258
    Abstract: In an air intake structure (14) of an aircraft engine pod, the link or connection between the air intake lip (15), the front reinforcing frame (16) and the acoustic panel (17) is implemented in such a way that the lip (15) can be dismantled without breaking the link between the frame (16) and the panel (17). Moreover, the internal, rear part (15a) of the lip (15) normally covers the front part (17a) of the panel (17), as well as the members (22, 24) ensuring the link between the latter and the frame (16).
