  • Heat shield
    Patent number: 5209896
    Abstract: The heat shield according to the invention makes it possible to protect a structure from a very high thermal flux. It is mainly constituted by tiles (2) fixed to a support structure (4) by means of a spring (8) fixed in translation with respect to a tile (2) and on which bears a locking arm (10). The latter can be fixed to the support structure (4) by means of locking screws (30), which are accessible from the outside through locking orifices (12) in the tile (2). The compression of the spring (8) allows locking to take place and also a satisfactory heat exchange from the tile (2) to the support structure (4), which can be cooled by cooling medium flow ducts (14).
