On an intake cone made of fiber compound material for a gas turbine engine, the conical part, the attachment part and the fairing part are manufactured as one piece from a plurality of mutually crossing and covering winding layers (1) forming an interlace (2). The winding layers include parallel, alternately adjacent glass fiber strands and carbon fiber strands of equal thickness. The one-piece intake cone is producible and mountable cost-effectively and is characterized by elasticity, stiffness and impact resistance.

1. A method for manufacturing an intake cone in a fiber compound material for a gas turbine engine, the intake cone including a conical part, an attachment part, a fairing part, and a longitudinal axis about which the intake cone rotates at a speed of a fan of a gas turbine engine, and constructed of fibers embedded in a resin and having an interlace, the method comprising: winding a plurality of dry mutually crossing and covering winding layers on a conical molding core at different angles and under formation of the interlace, these winding layers are at least one chosen from essentially straight and widely curved and made of straight strands and include adjacent dry glass fiber strands and dry carbon fiber strands of similar thickness in a conjoined arrangement, the glass fiber strands and the carbon fiber strands individually arranged in an alternating and parallel arrangement within each layer, the glass fiber strands and the carbon fiber strands having a one to one ratio;bringing another mold portion into engagement with the molding core to form a mold cavity in which the dry winding layers are positioned; andsubsequently infiltrating the resin into the mold cavity and dry wound interlace such that the resin forms to the mold cavity to form a surface of the intake cone that is smoother than a surface of the winding layers prior to resin infiltration. 2. A method in accordance with claim 1, and further comprising curing the resin for the fiber compound material and the surface coating by the effect of pressure and heat. 3. A method in accordance with claim 1, and further comprising applying a resin to an outer surface of the intake cone. 4. A method in accordance with claim 1 wherein the intake cone further includes material reinforcements formed on an inner circumference in the winding process and used for at least one of the group of: threaded attachment mechanism, centering mechanism, axial abutment mechanism and stiffening mechanism; and further comprising machining the intake cone upon removal from the mold to produce the axial abutment and centering mechanisms as well as the attachment mechanism, and fixing a rubber tip to the intake cone. 5. A method in accordance with claim 4, and further comprising curing the resin for the fiber compound material by the effect of pressure and heat. 6. An intake cone for a gas turbine engine made by the method of claim 1. 7. An intake cone for a gas turbine engine made by the method of claim 2. 8. An intake cone for a gas turbine engine made by the method of claim 4. 9. An intake cone for a gas turbine engine made by the method of claim 3.
