Reinforcing Arrangement For An Opening In An Aircraft Structure

A reinforcing arrangement for an opening in an aircraft fuselage structure has a fuselage skin having an inner side, an outer side and a first opening with a first opening contour, and a one-piece reinforcing structure having a thickening section and at least one projecting profile. The first opening contour is surrounded on the inner side of the fuselage skin by an opening edge surface having a thickness corresponding to a thickness of the fuselage skin surrounding the opening edge surface. The thickening section has a bearing surface matched to the opening edge surface and has a receiving section facing away from the bearing surface and surrounding a second opening. The bearing surface is in surface contact with the opening edge surface, and the reinforcing structure is connected to the fuselage skin, with the result that the first opening and the second opening lie one above the other.
