Abstract: The invention relates to a scalable freight loading system, in particular for an aircraft, comprising driving and securing means or freight packages, which are controlled by it central control device (DCB), wherein the loading surface is split into sectors, a local control (SCB 1-x) being assigned to each sector, and the conveying and securing elements (PDC) of a sector are connected to the central control device (DCB) via a bus system (CAN bus). According to the invention, the bus system itself or an electronic component connected to the bus system, particularly the central control device (DGB) or the local control anon (SCB 1-x) assigned to each sector, are provided with an interface via which the control software stored in a storage unit of the central control device (DCB), in a local control unit (CCB, SCB 1-x) or further electronic components connected to the bus system, such as further functionally supplemental controllers, can be made accessible and modified.

Abstract: The invention relates to a scalable freight loading system, especially for an aircraft, said system comprising drive means (L1-L9, R1-R9), covering sensors, bolts, proximity switches (PL1-PL9, PR1-PR9), and a central control device (CCB). According to the invention, the loading surface is divided into sectors (S1, S2, S3); a local control unit (SCB1, SCB2, SCB3) is associated with each sector; the drive means, covering sensors, and proximity switches of a sector are connected to IO ports of the local control unit; and the local control units are connected to the central control unit by means of a bus system (CAN-Bus).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a method for controlling the loading and/or unloading process of an aeroplane. According to the invention, a parcel introduced into the aeroplane is identified, a weight is associated with the parcel, the position of the parcel inside the airplane is monitored, and the total weight and/or center of gravity of the aeroplane is calculated from the aeroplane information provided and the weights and positions of the parcels.
