AIRCRAFT CABIN WINDOW ASSEMBLY METHOD

摘要

The invention relates to a method for assembling a cabin window to a bay in a side wall (12) of an aircraft fuselage, said cabin window comprising an outer transparent element (10) and at least one inner transparent element (11). According to the invention, a non-through hole is made in a portion of the side wall (12) along the edge of the bay. Subsequently, the outer transparent element (10) is positioned in the bay from the exterior of the fuselage, said element including a first part (13) which has a diameter greater than that of the bay and which is shaped to co-operate with the above-mentioned portion such as to block the outer transparent element (10) in the bay both laterally and longitudinally. The outer transparent element (10) also includes a second part (16) having a groove (17) that projects into the fuselage. The outer transparent element (10) and the at least one inner transparent element (11) are welded to the fuselage using a strap (22) which presses a seal (21) against at least the fuselage and the inner wall of the groove (17).
