  • Patent number: 8733689
    Abstract: A device provides electrical continuity between aeronautical components including a first fixed component and a second component displaceable with respect to the first component. The first and second components include electrically conducting surfaces. A first conductive piece is fixed to the first component and a second conductive piece is fixed to the second component. The first and second pieces are joined together with the possibility of sliding one on the other, in such a way that the first piece is connected to the conductive surface of the first component and the second piece is connected to the conductive surface of the second component, so that, when displacements take place of the second component with respect to the first component, the first piece slides on the second piece maintaining the electrical conductivity between the first and second components.
