  • Patent number: 9211952
    Abstract: A folding table system includes a table and a removable extension, together with a rigidification element slidably mounted within a cavity made in the table such that a portion of the rigidification element can be inserted in a housing made in the removable extension so as to rigidify the assembly formed by the table and the removable extension. The removable character of the removable extension in particular allows the system to be deployed by passing around possible obstacles by an appropriate conformation of at least one edge of the abovementioned assembly.

  • Patent number: 8469311
    Abstract: This fuselage comprises a wall and side doors as well as a space arranged behind the side door the farthest to the rear of the aircraft. The space for work and storage is delimited by side walls formed by the fuselage of the aircraft and by a transverse bulkhead. This space comprises housings for carts arranged along the transverse bulkhead. An aisle serves the housings arranged along the transverse bulkhead and has a transverse portion that is arranged entirely behind the side door the farthest to the rear of the aircraft. At least one housing for a cart is arranged on the other side of the transverse portion of the aisle in relation to the housings arranged along the wall, and each of the housings for accommodating a cart extends longitudinally in relation to a longitudinal axis relative to the aircraft.
