Tail structure for an aircraft or spacecraft
View Patent ↗A tail structure for an aircraft or spacecraft, which adjoins a fuselage section of the aircraft or spacecraft, includes a support construction for supporting at least one craft component, and a bulkhead unit intended for the pressure-tight sealing of the fuselage section and able to be coupled both to the support construction and to the fuselage section so as to form a force flow path between the at least one craft component and the fuselage section.
1. A combination of a tail structure and a fuselage section, the tail structure adjoining the fuselage section, the tail structure comprising:
A support construction supporting two engines; and
A bulkhead unit in a sealing the fuselage section in a pressure tight manner, the bulkhead unit being connected both to the support construction and to the fuselage section so as to form a force flow path between a respective engine and the fuselage section;
Wherein the support construction comprises two pylons which are connected to the respective engine and support the respective engine, and
Wherein the pylons are formed by a parallelepiped-defining support bar construction with at least one support bar extending diagonally in the parallelepiped, wherein the support construction has a pyramid-shaped base structure made of four support bars for supporting a stabilizing unit, wherein the pylons are fastened to the pyramid-shaped base structure, wherein the support construction has two oblique struts.
2. The combination according to claim 1 , wherein the two oblique struts each connecting a first suspension point in a connection region of the stabilizing unit and a second suspension point at the fuselage section, the first suspension point being displaced horizontally with respect to a vertical symmetry plane of the tail structure, and the second suspension point being arranged in the vertical symmetry plane, wherein the stabilizing unit and the bulkhead unit are coupled together via the at least two oblique struts.
3. The combination according to claim 1 , comprising a covering for covering the support construction, the covering providing no support function.
4. The combination according to claim 3 , wherein the covering completely surrounds the tail structure.
5. The combination according to claim 3 , wherein flaps for access to craft components are arranged in the covering.
6. The combination according to claim 1 , wherein the support construction comprises double-walled support bars.
7. An aircraft or spacecraft comprising a combination according to any of the preceding claims.
