Japanese Patent JPS616034
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
Honeycomb structures of brittle material having a plurality of cells extending longitudinally therethrough. When viewed in a plane perpendicular to a longitudinal axis through the structure, the plurality of cells extend thereacross and, with the exception of peripheral cells, are all of uniform size and shape. The shape is a rectangle whose length is twice its width. The cells are contiguously arranged in a repeating pattern that provides a "flexible" rectangle cellular structure wherein wall portions and joints formed by intersecting wall portions are movable to compensate for expansion/contraction stresses or forces thermally induced within the cellular structure, thereby tolerating significant strains without breaking the structure.
