Abstract: A mounting member configured to support a cabin component to be mounted to a mounting rail. The rail mounting arrangement comprises a disengagement locking mechanism that prevents a removal of the mounting member along a transversal direction of the mounting rail, while still allowing movement along the longitudinal direction. The rail mounting arrangement includes a securing mechanism that is configured to secure the mounting member at the desired location along the mounting rail.

Abstract: A fastening system includes a first fastening element attachable to a structure and which has a base portion for plugging through a structural opening, a second fastening element, and a plastically deformable funnel element. The funnel element has a funnel-like basic shape with a funnel opening. The second fastening element can be introduced through the funnel opening into a receiving opening of the base portion and fastened therein and has a collar which faces away from the receiving opening and which is larger than the funnel opening. The funnel element is designed to be deformed from the funnel-like basic shape into a flat, disk-like final shape by the collar of the second fastening element during the fastening of the second fastening element.

Abstract: A locking arrangement for connecting and interlocking rods at a node within a framework includes connection rods and a central node bearing to be engaged from different directions by each of the connection rods at respective mounting ports through plugging each connection rod onto a respective mounting port. The central node bearing is configured with at least one locking element at each mounting port to be actuated between a locked state, in which the at least one locking element resides in an outward position and the respective connection rod plugged onto the respective mounting port is clutched to the central node bearing by the at least one locking element, and an unlocked locked state, in which the at least one locking element resides in an inward position and the respective connection rod is released from the central node bearing.

Abstract: A trolley lift for connecting a lower aircraft deck to an upper aircraft deck. The trolley lift comprises a platform configured to accommodate at least one trolley, wherein the platform delimits a lift compartment at the bottom, and a cover which delimits the lift compartment at the top. In particular, on a side facing away from the lift compartment, the cover at least partly forms a floor of the upper aircraft deck. Furthermore, an aircraft area having a trolley lift and an aircraft having a trolley lift and/or an aircraft area are described.

Abstract: A movable cargo support for an aircraft cargo hold or passenger cabin includes a base member with its bottom surface having one or more support sections to support the base member on a floor surface. The base member includes wheel assemblies having a wheel member rotatable about a rotation axis and movably mounted on the base member to pivot about a steering axis of the wheel assembly and which can be altered between an extended position where the wheel member protrudes beyond the support plane and a retracted position where the wheel member does not extend beyond the support plane. Each wheel assembly has a biasing member biasing the wheel member towards the extended position and configured so the biasing force exceeds the force by X % at most which forces the wheel member towards the retracted position when the wheel members are on a floor surface and one or more cargo elements are on the support surface having the maximum allowable weight of the one or more cargo elements for the cargo support.

Abstract: A method for joining two substantially planar fiber-composite structural components, includes stacking the two components on a support jig to overlap along a joining region. A lower component end section within the joining region borders a gap between the upper component and the jig, where the upper component is unsupported by the jig. The gap is bordered on an opposite side of the lower component end section by a filling portion of the upper component or a planar filler element supported by the jig. The lower component is joined to the upper component within the joining region by applying temperature and pressure to the components. A width of the gap allows the upper component to elastically deform along the gap under the pressure and bend down into the gap to abut the jig along the gap and thereby compensate thickness tolerances between the components during the pressure application.

Abstract: A freight carrier for a freight region of an aircraft, having a base element with a support side and roller elements. Each of the roller elements is retained on a retention member to be rotatable about a rotation axis, wherein each of the retention members is displaceable between a deployed position and a retracted position, wherein the spacing of the roller elements from the base face is greater in the deployed position. The rotation axes of the roller elements are in a common rotation axis plane when the retention members are in the deployed position, the roller elements retained on the base element so the rotation axis of each of the roller elements is rotatable about a vertical axis, wherein the vertical axis extends parallel with and with spacing from an axis which extends through the rotation axis of the roller element and perpendicularly to the rotation axis plane.

Abstract: A fastening system has a fastening element and at least one fastening device having a flanged housing, a closure element, a hollow-sphere element and a spherical insert. The hollow-sphere element pivots about a first pivoting axis relative to the flanged housing, while the spherical insert pivots about a second pivoting axis in the hollow-sphere element. First engagement means in an opening of the spherical insert are of complementary design to second engagement means of the fastening element. The first and second engagement means are designed such that, in a first rotational position, the fastening element can be inserted freely into the opening and, in a second rotational position, the first and second engagement means engage in one another.

Abstract: A rotary joint includes a socket rod having a socket rod flange with an at least partly spheroid concave bearing surface at a first end, a housing nut encircling the socket rod and having a threaded wrenching head, and a ball rod having an at least partly spheroid convex bearing surface and threaded side walls around the bearing surface. The diameter of the threaded side walls of the ball rod corresponds to a diameter of the threaded wrenching head of the housing nut.
