These days, typically strong holders for attachment of inboard devices to the primary structure of an aircraft are used, which often only ineffectively manage dynamic loads. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, an energy absorber is provided for aircraft, which includes one or more energy absorber elements and a housing, whereby the energy absorber elements can absorb crash impulses by plastic deformation within the housing. Thus, the load on the primary structure and the respective inboard devices is limited, which can lead to an increased, passive safety of the passengers and a weight reduction.

De nos jours, des supports typiquement solides sont utilisés pour fixer des dispositifs de bord à la structure primaire d'un aéronef, lesdits supports gérant souvent les charges dynamiques de façon inefficace. Selon un exemple de mode de réalisation de la présente invention, un absorbeur d'énergie est prévu pour des aéronefs, qui comprend un ou plusieurs éléments absorbeurs d'énergie et un logement, moyennant quoi les éléments absorbeurs d'énergie peuvent absorber des impulsions d'accident par déformation plastique à l'intérieur du logement. Ainsi, la charge sur la structure primaire est limitée, ce qui peut entraîner une sécurité passive plus importante des passagers et une réduction pondérale.
