Patent number: 11945602Abstract: An assembly for an aircraft. The assembly comprises a frame, an instrument panel fixed to the frame, a support system with an arm bearing a tray in which the arm positions the tray behind the instrument panel, and in which the tray comprises a first attachment arrangement, and a support comprising a second attachment arrangement which cooperates with the first attachment arrangement to removably fix the support onto the tray. The support also comprises a fixing system which ensures the removable fixing of a touch tablet onto the support. With such an assembly, the touch tablet is held without the aid of the pilot and it is positioned in front of him or her for easy access.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2021Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: AIRBUS OPERATIONS SASInventors: Vincent Auriac, Patrick Salgues, Laurent Feuillerac

Patent number: 11753140Abstract: An aircraft fuselage portion extending in a general longitudinal direction and comprising a fuselage structure comprising annular frames and a flat floor. The fuselage portion also comprises struts perpendicular to the floor in a nominal position and extending from the floor to a frame. Each strut comprises, in the vicinity of at least one of the ends thereof, a detachable link so that the strut can be moved relative to the fuselage structure or separated from the fuselage structure to temporarily grant access to a triangle area located between the frames, the floor and the struts in the nominal position. This allows access to be granted to the area in which the ducts must be installed in the aircraft, in particular, in the form of sets of ducts assembled prior to their installation in the fuselage.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2020Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: AIRBUS OPERATIONS SASInventors: Jean-Luc Maurel, Vincent Borrel, Laurent Feuillerac, Patrick Salgues, Vincent Auriac

Publication number: 20230131705Abstract: A hold of an aircraft includes at least two system cabinets, one cabinet is disposed longitudinally. The longitudinal cabinet is movable between a use position along a wall of the fuselage and a maintenance position, in which it is spaced apart from the wall of the fuselage. This arrangement makes it easier to access the system cabinets installed in the hold of the aircraft by the operators arranging the hold or carrying out maintenance on the cabinets.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2022Publication date: April 27, 2023Inventors: Patrick SALGUES, Didier DETHUNE

Patent number: 11541985Abstract: An aircraft duct assembly comprising at least two ducts extending along a general direction of rectilinear extent, each duct being an electrical, hydraulic or aeraulic duct connected to a duct support. The duct support comprises a first slideway element configured to cooperate with a second slideway element to form a slideway in the general direction of extent of the ducts. The duct assembly can thus be inserted, after mounting, by translation along the direction of the slideway into an aircraft fuselage portion. The mounting of the duct assembly and installation thereof in a fuselage are simplified, and the duct assembly is more reliable.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2020Date of Patent: January 3, 2023Assignee: AIRBUS OPERATIONS SASInventors: Laurent Feuillerac, Patrick Salgues, Vincent Auriac

Patent number: 9745044Abstract: An aircraft including a fuselage with a skin in which is made an opening, the skin delimiting the interior and the exterior of the fuselage. A closure panel is mobile between a closed position in which the panel covers the opening and an open position in which the closure panel uncovers the opening. A support including a base is fastened to the fuselage. At least one bar and an articulation between the bar and the base allow the bar to occupy a position retracted inside the fuselage and a deployed position outside the fuselage. The articulation is a pivoting connection.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2015Date of Patent: August 29, 2017Assignee: AIRBUS OPERATIONS SASInventors: Patrick Salgues, Anne-Laure Neveu

Patent number: 9555872Abstract: An aeroplane includes an escape opening passing through an external skin and an internal bulkhead. The escape opening is closed off by an external escape hatch having an external opening controller. The aeroplane further includes an internal escape hatch that closes off said escape opening flush with the internal bulkhead, and kept closed by at least one catch movable between a locked state and unlocked state, a first opening controller that controls the passage from the locked state to the unlocked state of the catch being accessible from inside the aeroplane, and a second opening controller that controls the passage from the locked state to the unlocked state of the catch being positioned such that the actuation of the external opening controller of the external escape hatch or the passage of the external escape hatch from the closed position to the open position causes the second opening controller to be actuated.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2015Date of Patent: January 31, 2017Assignee: Airbus Operations SASInventors: Patrick Salgues, Anne-Laure Neveu
