Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The invention describes a regulating device that adapts to the aerodynamic profile of a mold bed made of composite material offsetting the geometrical deviations occurring in the mold bed. The device comprises some stiffening ribs ( 20 ) supported on a surface of the bed ( 10 ) of the mold and is equipped with actuators ( 21 ) that modify the curvature of the bed ( 10 ) of the mold.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A device comprising a mold having two semi-molds, wherein at least a first of the semi-molds comprises (a) a bed having a surface and an aerodynamic profile, wherein the bed is made of a composite material that has been subjected to a curing process that can lead to a deviation in the aerodynamic profile of the bed; and (b) a plurality of stiffening ribs disposed along the surface of the bed, wherein at least one of the plurality of stiffening ribs comp…
