  • Mounting system for a pressure seal of an aircraft door
    Patent number: 11203406
    Abstract: An aircraft door, and, more particularly, to a mounting system for a pressure seal of an aircraft door. A mounting system may include an outer skin, a pressure seal, a clamping component, a pressure seal fastener having a head and a threaded shank, a nut, a mounting support having a clearance hole that is adapted to prevent a rotational and axial movement of the pressure seal fastener, and mounting support fasteners. Mounting support fasteners removably attach the mounting support to the outer skin. The head of the pressure seal fastener is connected to the mounting support such that a rotational and axial movement of the pressure seal fastener is prevented. The nut is removably attached to the threaded shank of the pressure seal fastener, thereby removably clamping the pressure seal between the clamping component and the mounting support.
