摘要： Apparatus and methods for coupling a payload to a support track are disclosed. In one embodiment, an interface assembly includes a base, a support arm, and a lug member. The base has a pair of clamp arms projecting outwardly therefrom. Each clamp arm is adapted to be disposed through an associated coupling aperture disposed in the engagement member. The clamp arms are moveable relative to the engagement member between an unsecured position in which the clamp arms are extractable from the coupling apertures, and a secured position wherein the clamp arms are not extractable from the coupling apertures. The support arm is coupled to the base and to a component (e.g. a payload). The lug member that locks the assembly in the secured position, is moveable between a first position wherein the clamp arms are positioned in the unsecured position, and a second position wherein the clamp arms are positioned in the secured position.

摘要： A cabling system and method for providing access to electrical power and/or data communications onboard a mobile platform is provided. A plurality of lower connectors are attached to a bottom side of a plurality of mobile platform floor panels. Each lower connector includes at least one lower connector coupling contact that is connected to a lower connector signal conduit. The lower connector signal conduits convey either electrical signals or data signals between each lower connector coupling contact and a signal source and/or a signal receiver. A plurality of upper connectors removably mate with the lower connectors. Each upper connector includes at least one upper connector coupling contact that removably couples with the lower connector coupling contact(s) of the mated lower connector. A plurality of upper connector signal conduits are connected to the upper connector coupling contacts and detachably connect to at least one user connection port and/or at least one seat electrical unit (SEU) accessible by a passenger seated in a passenger cabin of the mobile platform. Thus, a transmission path for the electrical and/or data signals is provided between the lower connectors and the user connection ports and/or the SEU's when the upper connectors are mated with the lower connectors.
