INTEGRATED AIRCRAFT STRUCTURAL FLOOR

摘要

A number of integrated floor structures (100, 200, 300) made of lightweight composite materials for use in an aircraft are disclosed. Generally, each of such floors includes a top-layer skin (210) , a bottom- layer skin (280) disposed below the top-layer skin and a first structural core (260) disposed between the top- layer skin and the bottom-layer skin, the first structural core being composed of a honeycomb composite material. One or more denser structural cores (230) can also be incorporated at strategic locations.
