Abstract: An object of the present invention is to prevent accumulation of moisture which has entered inside a honeycomb sandwich panel used for a stressed-skin structure of an aircraft. A reinforcing structure includes an outer panel constituting an outer shell of a tailplane and a honeycomb sandwich panel reinforcing the outer panel. The honeycomb sandwich panel includes a honeycomb core having a plurality of cells, an outer skin joined on the front side of the honeycomb core and disposed on the side of the outer panel, and an inner skin joined on the back side of the honeycomb core and disposed on the inner side of the tailplane. The inner skin has drainage channels formed therein through which each of the plurality of cells communicates with the outside of the honeycomb sandwich panel.

Abstract: The present invention provides a device which can uniformize heat distribution by using an existing heater mat for repairing or joining members. A heat dispersion device includes a bag with a fluid sealed inside, and is disposed on a second surface of a heater mat which has a first surface to be directed toward an object to be heated and the second surface opposite to the first surface. The fluid inside the bag is preferably heated with a heat source.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for locating a machining position in a repair material that is arranged on a member including a machined portion formed by predetermined machining, the method including: a step of arranging a marker including a portion having a different propagation characteristic of an ultrasonic wave from that of a peripheral portion in the machined portion existing in the member before the repair material is arranged on the member; and a step of applying the ultrasonic wave to the member covered with the repair material and locating the machining position at a position of the marker captured by the ultrasonic wave after the repair material is arranged on the member.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for repairing a lightning protection material that is made of a metal material and is provided along a surface of a member formed by using a fiber reinforced resin includes: bonding a repair material made of a metal material over a lost region of the member where the lightning protection material is lost by using a liquid adhesive and a sheet-shaped holder that contains and holds the adhesive and is arranged at the lost region.

Abstract: A method for repairing a honeycomb core sandwich structural body according to the present invention is a method in which a damaged portion that is formed in a honeycomb core sandwich structural body where a honeycomb structured core is held between a first outer skin and a second outer skin and that reaches the core through the first outer skin is repaired, the method including: a repair material mounting step of mounting a repair material on the damaged portion, the repair material including a patch that covers an opening of the damaged portion, and one or a plurality of braces that support the patch; a patch bonding step of bonding the patch to the first outer skin; and a brace bonding step of bonding the brace to the second outer skin or the core.

Abstract: There is provided a drainage system of an aircraft which discharges moisture having entered inside horizontal tails, which are structures of an airframe of an aircraft, toward the rear end of a fuselage, the drainage system including: a drainage channel which includes an introduction end and a discharge end, and by a capillary action delivers moisture introduced from the introduction end toward the discharge end; and a heater which heats and dries the moisture delivered through the drainage channel. The drainage channel of the present invention is preferably composed of a paper drainage material. It is also preferable that the introduction end of the drainage channel is provided in a lowermost region in the vertical direction within an area in which moisture can accumulate inside the horizontal tails while the aircraft is parked.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a repair method using a pre-cured repairing patch, and a repaired product obtained from repairing using the repairing patch, and the present invention securely bonds a repairing patch, where an out-of-plane stiffness is required, to a repair target. In order to cover a repair target portion 23 formed in an outer panel 2 with a repairing patch 30, and bond the repairing patch 30 to a repair target, repairing plates 31, 32 that are formed of fibers and thermosetting resin, and pre-cured before repairing are used as the repairing patch 30, and a laminating step S4 of laminating the repairing plates 31, 32, and a bonding step S7 of bonding the repairing plates 31, 32 to each other are performed.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to visualize an internal structural members, which are covered with a skin and therefore unrecognizable to the naked eye, from the outside of the skin. There is provided an internal structure visualization method applied to a main wing of an aircraft, which includes a skin with a front surface and a back surface and structural members supporting the skin from the back surface side, to display, when necessary, a trace map composed of lines extending along projection regions of the structural members, wherein functional lines, which are a developing element of the trace map, are provided along the projection regions of the front surface, and the trace map is displayed by performing a predetermined process on a predetermined region of the front surface where the functional lines are provided.
