LAMINATE COMPOSITE WING STRUCTURES

A wing includes a wing skin, a laminate composite first stringer, a rib, and at least one fastener. A majority of the first stringer is characterized by a stacked plurality of generally planar plies (500) of reinforcement material structurally joined as a stack to an interior surface (160) of the wi...

Zusammenfassung:A wing includes a wing skin, a laminate composite first stringer, a rib, and at least one fastener. A majority of the first stringer is characterized by a stacked plurality of generally planar plies (500) of reinforcement material structurally joined as a stack to an interior surface (160) of the wing skin and extending generally parallel to the interior surface and a span-wise direction of the wing along a substantial portion of the interior surface. The first stringer has a generally solid trapezoidal cross section when viewed in a plane that is generally perpendicular to the span-wise direction. The rib (140a) is positioned adjacent the interior surface, and extends generally perpendicular to the span-wise direction. The trapezoidal cross section is interfaced with the rib flange (402). The fastener (400) extends through the wing skin, the trapezoidal cross section, and the rib flange.
