Patent number: 8550397Abstract: A covering of a fuselage for aircraft having propeller engines, including an opening which is surrounded by a structural frame formed by ribs and stringers of the aircraft around the area of maximum acoustic impact of the propeller engines. The opening further includes a non-structural panel joined to the structural frame by a non-rigid joint which considerably attenuates the vibrations through such joint, thus reducing the indirect acoustic noise and the indirect structural noise generated by the propeller engines inside the passenger cabin of the aircraft.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2008Date of Patent: October 8, 2013Assignee: Airbus Operations S.L.Inventors: Jorge Pablo Verde Preckler, Maria Caballero Asensio

Patent number: 8152097Abstract: A stabilizing and directional-control surface of an aircraft includes a vertical stabilizer and a rudder that deflects relative to the vertical stabilizer. The rudder includes an internal profile that is extendable and retractable by an actuating system. An aerodynamic control surface area of the rudder is increased when the internal profile of the rudder is extended as compared to the aerodynamic control surface area of the rudder when the internal profile of the rudder is retracted.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2009Date of Patent: April 10, 2012Assignee: Airbus Operations S.L.Inventors: Jorge Pablo Verde Preckler, Jose Miguel Vizarro Toribio
