  • Patent number: 8444088
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for the production of a fuselage structure, and a fuselage structure, in particular of an aircraft or spacecraft, with an inner shell arrangement which has an upper inner shell and a lower inner shell, the upper inner shell being spaced apart at least in some sections from the lower inner shell by a first gap in order to form a window region; and a window band which is arranged at least in the window region and has a pane device which comprises a grid structure which absorbs fuselage forces.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7290736
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a sliding door, which, for example, can be guided on three rollers on the door side in rails on the aircraft structure. Locking of such a cargo door occurs by movement of the cargo door parallel to the aircraft X-axis with the locking pins in corresponding sleeves situated on the aircraft structure. In order to guarantee this, the door opening must be larger than the door itself. The gap produced by this is now closed by means of a locking element that clamps the door. This permits a light structure of the cargo door and therefore a weight saving.
