Abstract

See full text

A mounting system for tubular structures within a wing structure provides for positioning of the tubular structure as it passes through wing ribs. The system provides for electrostatic protection from discharges between the rib and the tubular structure, and accommodates offset tubular positioning. A mounting flange is attached to an aperture in the wing rib, and the tubular structure is inserted through an aperture in the mounting flange. Once the tubular structure is positioned, a cushion mount comprising two pieces is inserted into the flange structure, holding the tubular structure in position in the mounting flange. The cushion mount may have a concentric aperture or an offset aperture to accommodate an offset positioned tubular structure in the wind rib aperture.
