An assembly jig for a cellular structure made from strips of material placed adjacent to each other and joined together so as to form first and second cells, opening on the first and second faces of the cellular structure, respectively. This assembly jig includes a housing delimited by a base and first and second side faces, configured for housing the strips of material of a cellular structure to be formed, superimposed on each other, a plurality of pins configured to be positioned between the superimposed strips of material in the first and/or second cells. An assembly device comprising the jig, and a method for manufacturing a cellular structure using the jig are also provided.

Assembly jig for a cellular structure, assembly device comprising said jig, and method for manufacturing a cellular structure using said jig

An acoustic panel including first and second cellular structures, the first cellular structure including a set-back portion to form a recess dimensioned to accommodate the second cellular structure such that first faces of the first and second cellular structures, in contact with a first, acoustically resistive layer, are coplanar and that first edge faces of the first and second cellular structures are coplanar when the second edge face of the second cellular structure is in contact with the set-back portion. By virtue of the set-back portion, the first and second cellular structures are positioned correctly with respect to one another, thus contributing to an optimization of the acoustic treatment.
