Abstract: The invention relates to An aircraft on-board kitchen module (1) comprising at least one heater and/or cooler with at least one first compartment (2) for drinks and/or food and whose temperature can be conditioned by at least one thermoelectric element (5) having a first and a second heat exchanger (8, 9), one of the heat exchangers (8, 9) forming a cold side and the other heat exchanger (8, 9) forming a hot side of the thermoelectric element (5) such that heat generated by the thermoelectric element (5) is dissipated by a primary coolant from a central cooling system (11) of the aircraft, the primary coolant being supplied via a coolant duct (10) that is selectively supplied with ambient air from the cabin and/or conditioned cold air from the central cooling system (11) of the aircraft.

Abstract: The invention relates to a monitoring system (1) for an aircraft for monitoring mobile accessory devices (2) in the aircraft, in particular rolling containers for an on-board kitchen of the aircraft, comprising at least one stationary sensor device (3) for detecting one of the mobile accessory devices (2) and comprising a central unit (10) for evaluating a current security state of the mobile accessory devices (2) based on detection results (DS) of the at least one stationary sensor device (3) reported to the central unit (10). The monitoring system (1) also comprises at least one mobile sensor device (4) for detecting any accessory device (2) of the mobile accessory devices moving relative to the mobile sensor device (4) within a predetermined distance (E), and for reporting a respective detection result (DM) to the central unit (10).
