  • Modular anti-icing/de-icing device for an aerodynamic surface
    Patent number: 7523889
    Abstract: A anti-icing/de-icing device for an aircraft wing includes at least one aerodynamic surface, e.g. a rotorcraft blade or an airplane wing, the aerodynamic surface possessing at least two anti-icing/de-icing modules 17, with each module 17 being provided with a respective heater element 54. In addition, the heater elements 54 of the modules 17 are powered electrically by a common electrical power supply member 1, each anti-icing/de-icing module acting against icing in its own zone independently of the other module(s).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 10, 2004
    Date of Patent: April 28, 2009
    Assignee: Eurocopter
