Description

Vermeidung der Zerstörung eines Flugzeugrumpfes, ins­ besondere von Großraumflugzeugen, im Verlauf einer Not­ landung, ausgelöst durch den Aufprall eines Flugzeugflü­ gels auf ein Hindernis.Avoidance of the destruction of a fuselage, ins especially of wide-body aircraft, in the course of an emergency landing caused by the impact of an aircraft wing gels on an obstacle.

Bei der Auswertung von Flugzeughavarien der letzten Jahre wird deutlich, daß die Gefährdung der Flugzeugbesat­ zungen und der Passagiere während der Starts und der Lan­ dungen besonders groß ist.When evaluating aircraft accidents of the last Years it becomes clear that the endangerment of aircraft crew tongues and passengers during takeoffs and lan is particularly large.

Aufgabe der Anmeldung ist es, bei einer Notlandung den Flugzeugrumpf zum Schutz der Insassen weitgehend vor Zerstörung zu bewahren und auf diese Weise die Überleben­ schancen der Insassen zu vergrößern.The task of the registration is, in the event of an emergency landing Aircraft fuselage largely protects the occupants Preserve destruction and survival this way to increase the chances of the occupants.

Diese Aufgabe wird im Anspruch dadurch gelöst, daß in dem Augenblick, da eine Flugzeugführung während der Notlandung die Kontrolle über ihr Flugzeug verliert, geeig­ nete Sensoren für eine Trennung der Flügel vom Flugzeug­ rumpf sorgen. Weiterhin wird eine Brandgefährdung des Flugzeugrumpfes durch technische Vorkehrungen verhin­ dert.This object is achieved in the claim that in the moment that an aircraft guidance during the Emergency landing loses control of her aircraft nete sensors for separating the wings from the aircraft worry hull. Furthermore, there is a risk of fire Avoid fuselage through technical precautions different.

Die einzige Figur zeigt ein Flugzeug nach einer Notlan­ dung, wobei die Flügel vom Rumpf abgesprengt sind.The only figure shows an airplane after an emergency plan dung, with the wings blasted off the fuselage.
