The design and attachment of an insulation package near the fuselage structure to protect the cabin region of an aircraft against fire acting on the insulation package from outside the aircraft environment, thus clearly facilitating evacuation of the passengers from the vehicle. The insulation package arrangement may comprise several fuselage insulation packages of an elongated form. These packages may adjoin the aircraft fuselage structure in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. They may be completely enclosed by a burn-through-proof foil which is arranged in a space enclosed by interior paneling and by the panels of the outer skin. The longitudinal end of the fuselage insulation package continues outward with a flat insulation end section is attached which is attached to a rib-attachment region arranged below the respective longitudinal sides of a rib and near the stringer by means of burn-through-proof attachment elements arranged on the inside of the aircraft with respect to the insulation.

Insulation package arrangement for insulating the interior of an aircraft fuselage

The present invention relates to an insulation structure for the internal insulation of a vehicle. The insulation structure is improved in such a way that using it a fire incursion of the flames of a source of fire acting from outside the vehicle environment into the vehicle interior is excluded as much as possible, an increase of the fire protection safety for separate interior regions lying proximal to a structure external skin being implemented by the type of the film insulation of the insulation package. The insulation structure comprises an insulation package (), in which an insulation core () is embedded, and a film (). The insulation package () is positioned inside an intermediate space which encloses internal paneling and an external skin. It is completely enclosed by the film (). The film () is implemented using a burn-through safe film material, which is an obstruction to a flaming fire, to which a film surface region of this film is subjected during an occurring fire catastrophe.
