  • Landing gear for aerodynes, with crosspieces in composite material
    Patent number: 5211359
    Abstract: Landing gear for aerodynes and especially helicopters comprising two lateral members (2) for contact with the ground being linked to the fuselage of the aerodyne by at least two crosspieces (3, 4). These crosspieces (3, 4) are produced as a bundle (7) of unidirectional synthetic fibers sheathed by a skin (8) of tissues of fibers which are crossed with respect to the unidirectional fibers of the bundle (7). The extremities (9) of the crosspieces are embedded in the lateral members (2) for contact with the ground. The structural links between the crosspieces (3, 4) and the fuselage of the aerodyne (H) allow the pivoting of the crosspieces (3, 4) about transverse axes of the aerodyne (H).
