ENERGY-ABSORBING STRUCTURAL ELEMENT MADE OF A COMPOSITE MATERIAL AND AIRCRAFT FUSELAGE HAVING SAID ABSORBER

摘要

The invention relates to an aircraft fuselage comprising at least one reinforcement frame (13), at least one crossbar (14) and at least one energy-absorbing structural element (2) that comprises a compression beam (21) having a longitudinal axis Z and oriented substantially in the direction of compression forces to be absorbed upon an impact, said compression beam being attached at a first end (213) thereof to the crossbar (14) and at a second end (214) thereof to the reinforcement frame (13). The compression beam (21) is attached at at least one of its ends (213, 214) via a shoulder bracket (22), wherein said shoulder bracket further has the function of cutting the compression beam (21) in case of an impact.
