Abstract: A device for attaching an object to an attachment rail, particularly a seat rail, in an aircraft or spacecraft. A base part has a support surface to be placed onto an outer surface of the rail, and a locking element to partially protrude from the support surface along a line of protrusion. The base part and locking element are coupled or configured to be coupled wherein the locking element can be moved relative to the base part along the line of protrusion and rotated with respect to the base part. An end section of the locking element has a tip portion shaped in a dovetail-type manner. The device includes a tensioning arrangement for tensioning the locking element with respect to the rail. An arrangement includes such a device as well as an attachment rail with a rail main body and a plurality of bushes. A method for attaching an object, and a seat rail are disclosed.

Abstract: A floor panel for an aircraft or spacecraft. The floor panel has a panel-like portion and an additional structure. A first side of the panel-like portion forms part of a floor surface in the aircraft or spacecraft. The additional structure is connected to the panel-like portion on a second side of the panel-like portion that is opposite the first side. The panel-like portion and the additional structure each comprise a matrix material formed by a thermoplastic material. Endless reinforcing fibers are embedded in the matrix material of the panel-like portion. Discontinuous reinforcing fibers are embedded in the matrix material of the additional structure. An aircraft or spacecraft may have a floor area which is formed by a planar arrangement of floor panels of this type. The method for producing a floor panel for an aircraft or spacecraft is provided.

Abstract: A method for producing a crossmember for a vehicle prepares a workpiece having different thicknesses and a preliminary contour from a metal sheet of uniform thickness by flat roll forming to achieve different local thicknesses. The method cuts out the workpiece, and bending roll forms the workpiece to form a crossmember with a cross section having at least two flanges opposite one another, and a web situated between said flanges. The distance between the flanges is not constant along a longitudinal extent of the crossmember, and a thickness profile at least of the web is determined by the flat roll forming. The local thicknesses and the preliminary contour are such that a geometrical shape of the crossmember corresponds to a predetermined geometrical shape with different thicknesses and heights of the web and differently shaped regions of the flanges along the longitudinal extent of the crossmember.
