Abstract: An aircraft fuselage comprising a structural wall and a floor delimiting a cabin for passengers, said wall being covered by a plurality of adjacent trim panels arranged in succession in the longitudinal direction of the fuselage and spaced from one another with a gap between two adjacent panels. Each panel is also fixed to the wall and has a concave shape adapted to the shape of the fuselage. At least one lighting device is disposed at the level of at least one of the gaps and is arranged perpendicularly to a longitudinal axis of the fuselage. The lighting device comprises a housing fixed to the wall. The housing is provided with an opening on a face oriented toward the interior of said cabin. The housing further comprises at least one lighting element making it possible to light the cabin through the gap.
Abstract: A textile covering, comprising an under-layer in contact with a rear face of a layer of textile fibers, and comprising an optical fiber housed inside a routing groove in the under-layer, an end portion of the optical fiber extending through the layer of textile fibers via a support device of the optical fiber. The support device comprises a fixing ring and a heat-shrink tubing covering part of the fixing ring and of the end portion. The fixing ring comprises a base in contact with the rear face and a cylindrical portion into which the end portion of the optical fiber is inserted. The textile covering may be used as carpet equipping the floor of an aircraft cabin.
