  • Patent number: 8550397
    Abstract: 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.

  • Publication number: 20110127374
    Abstract: Methods for minimizing the effects of pylori induced disturbances of the airflow at the propeller blades (2) of propeller propulsion devices (3) attached to an aircraft component (5) by means of upstream pylons (4), comprising steps of injecting fluid on the zone of the propeller blades (2) from the rear part of said pylons (4) for minimizing the effects of said disturbances detected through the values of a first set of parameters such acoustic pressure and vibration in the aircraft structure and vibration in the propeller blades (2) that are obtained continuously or according to models linked to one or more parameters of a second set of parameters indicative of the aircraft flight conditions such as flight altitude, flight speed propulsion power, propeller rotation speed obtained from a tachometer signal, ambient temperature of the air. The invention also refers to systems for implementing said methods.

  • Publication number: 20100054894
    Abstract: The device essentially consists of a substantially rigid piece that has a first portion (1), a second portion (2) and conventional means (3) for securing the piece onto a fastening surface (6). The first portion (1) forms a space such that once the head (5) of the coupling element (4) is introduced inside the space, the rotation of the coupling element (4) around its own axis is prevented (anti-rotation function). The second portion (2) is connected to the first portion (1) in a part of the second portion located opposite to the opening of the space through which the head (5) of the coupling element (4) is introduced. In such a way that once the piece is mounted on the head of the coupling element, the axial movement of the coupling element (4) is prevented (retention function).

  • Publication number: 20090152400
    Abstract: The invention relates to a covering (22) of a fuselage (1) for aircraft comprising propeller engines (3) comprising an opening (12) which is surrounded by a structural frame formed by the ribs (5) and the stringers (6) of the aircraft around the area of maximum acoustic impact of the propeller engines (3), said opening (12) further comprising a non-structural panel (7) joined to the previous structural frame by means of a rather 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 (3) inside the passenger cabin of the aircraft.
