POSITIONING SYSTEM OF SECTORS OF A DEVICE FOR PRODUCING AN AIRPLANE FUSELAGE

摘要

Positioning system of sectors of a device for producing an airplane fuselage in which a lamination mandrel 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 a vacuum at high temperature for forming a structural section of the airplane. The lamination mandrel comprises a plurality of sectors borne by a supporting structure and mobile along guides borne by the supporting structure between: an expanded lamination position and a contracted disassembling position. Each guide comprises a fixed part borne by the supporting structure and a mobile part sliding along/with respect to the fixed part in a rectilinear direction H. Between a portion of each mobile part facing towards the respective sector and the stiffening structure a positioning device is provided which allows adjustment of the position of the sector with respect to the guide in two directions which lie in a plane RP perpendicular to the axis H of the guide.
