Abstract:
An assembly for use on an aircraft wing having an aircraft skin and a fuel tank, the assembly comprising a metal access door for accessing the fuel tank, a metal retainer ring for engaging the wing and the access door. Fasteners removably couple the access door to the retainer ring. A lip, which may be on the wing surface, is configured to receive a perimeter of the access door when the access door is coupled to the retainer ring. A polyurethane elastomeric gel gasket having a metallic skeleton is configured to lay between the access door and a lip of the metal wing surface. Under compression, the polyurethane will deform and squeeze out the edges and flatten so as to provide metal-to-metal contact between the access door and the lip.

Claim (Index 1):
A gasket for use with a two piece aircraft part assemblies, each of the pieces having generally flat inner facing mating walls and outer perimeters comprising:\n a partially open, flexible metallic skeleton comprised of multiple concentric members, the skeleton having a generally flat upper surface and a generally flat lower surface, an inner perimeter and an outer perimeter; and a pliable, resilient, elastomeric, cured polymer body, substantially filling the openings of the skeleton and generally tabular in nature, the body having a generally flat, tacky upper surface, a generally flat, tacky lower surface, an inner perimeter wall, and an outer perimeter wall;\n wherein the outer perimeter walls of both the skeleton and the body generally conform to the shape defined by the outer perimeters of the aircraft parts assembly; \n wherein the gasket is adapted to lay between the mating walls of the pieces and receive compression therebetween; and \n wherein the gasket is capable of withstanding multiple temperature and thermal cycles while maintaining its tackiness and resiliency and providing a good environmental seal.
