  • Publication number: 20070095985
    Abstract: The invention relates to an aircraft door arrangement, especially for an aeroplane, said arrangement comprising a door, a doorframe, a supporting section with a pivotal axis (AD) on the door side, along which the door is pivotably positioned, and a pivotal axis (AF) on the frame side, along which the supporting section (8) is pivotably positioned on the door frame. At least the pivotal axis (AD) on the door side is defined by two articulations (G1, G2) which are interspaced in the vertical direction (Y) of the supporting section (8), at least one (G1; G2) of said articulations comprising two vertically (Y) interspaced bearings (L1a, L1b). The inventive door arrangement also comprises a pivotal drive (10) which is arranged on the door side of the supporting section (8) and is used to pivot the door, and an output element (12; 14, 16) which is coupled to the pivotal drive (10) and the door and transfers an actuating movement of the pivotal drive (10) to the door.
