Abstract: The present invention provides a pressure bulkhead for subdivision of an aircraft or spacecraft into an internal and an external pressure region. The pressure bulkhead comprises a pressure plate having an edge shaped so as to correspond to an inner contour of the aircraft or spacecraft, a supporting means which tiltably supports the edge on the inner contour, and a seal which seals the edge with the inner contour. A further aspect of the invention provides a method for subdivision of an aircraft or spacecraft into an internal and an external pressure region. Firstly, a pressure plate is provided that has an edge shaped so as to correspond to an inner contour of the aircraft or spacecraft. In further steps, the edge is tiltably supported on the inner contour and sealed with the inner contour.

Abstract: A transverse butt connection between two fuselage sections, more particularly for creating a fuselage cell for an aircraft, can have a number of stringers arranged spaced out uniformly parallel to one another inside on an outer skin. In order to enable a universal tolerance compensation with standardised compensating means within a predetermined tolerance band between two fuselage sections which are to be joined together, both end areas of the fuselage sections can have on the inside oppositely inclined skin wedge surfaces and the connection of the two end areas is carried out by a circumferential transverse butt strap which is provided with two oppositely inclined transverse butt strap wedge surfaces in the underneath area wherein a wedge can be pushed in between each one transverse butt strap wedge surface and a skin wedge surface for tolerance compensation between the fuselage sections.

Abstract: The invention relates to a transverse butt connection (1, 24) between two fuselage sections (2, 3, 25, 26), more particularly for creating a fuselage cell for an aircraft, with a number of stringers (41, 42) arranged spaced out uniformly parallel to one another inside on an outer skin (4, 5, 27, 28).
