Title: Constraint system of sectors of a device for producing an airplane fuselage
Inventor: SIBONA GUIDO
IPC: B64C1/12
Filed: 2013-03-28
Granted: 2020-03-24
Abstract: A constraint system of sectors of a device for producing an airplane fuselage in which a lamination mandrel is defined by an external surface which defines a rotation solid with respect to a symmetry axis and is adapted to receive and support a band of impregnated synthetic material which is deposited and wound on the external surface forming a plurality of overlapping layers which are subjected to a polymerisation process under vacuum for forming a structural section of the airplane. The lamination mandrel comprises a plurality of sectors angularly spaced about the axis and mobile between: an expanded lamination position in which the sectors have greater rectilinear edges parallel to the axis arranged side by side and the external surfaces of the sectors opposite the axis define together said external surface; and a contracted disassembling position in which at least part of the sectors approaches the axis moving away from the trace of the surface to allow extraction of the mandrel from the structural section of the airplane. A constraint system is provided between each sector and the sectors adjacent thereto which guarantees a predetermined arrangement of the first sector with respect to the second sector adjacent thereto, preventing any translation along two directions which lie in an adjustment plane perpendicular to an axis RD which extends radially from the symmetry axis to the external surface.
