Peripheral seal fixation unit protecting device for e.g. during manufacturing of airplane, has chock intercalated between fixation unit end and aircraft fuselage, where chock has friction face with fuselage, and mounting face on nut

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The device (1) has a flexible chock (10) intercalated between an end of a fixation unit and an aircraft fuselage (9), where the fixation unit is constituted of a screw (5) and a nut (6). The chock has a friction face with the aircraft fuselage, and a mounting face on the nut of the fixation unit. The chock has a crown, whose skirt (20) is inserted inside a groove of a retaining ring (19) for connecting the crown and the retaining ring, where the chock is made of an elastomer material. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Device for protecting a fixation unit during manufacturing of an aircraft i.e. airplane or when the airplane is in service, where the fixation unit is utilized for fixing a peripheral seal, on a soft belly panel of an aircraft i.e. airplane, and is constituted of a screw and a nut. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The flexible chock is intercalated between the end of the fixation unit and the aircraft fuselage, thus guaranteeing safe distance between the end of the fixation unit and the aircraft fuselage, and avoiding any risk of injury of a surface of the aircraft fuselage. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a sectional view of a protecting device for protecting a peripheral seal fixation unit. 1 : Protecting device 5 : Screw 6 : Nut 9 : Aircraft fuselage 10 : Flexible chock 19 : Retaining ring 20 : Skirt.
