  • Patent number: 11505334
    Abstract: An installation system for a cabin of a vehicle includes at least one built-in component for installation in the cabin, multiple base elements for arrangement on a structurally fixed component of the vehicle and multiple holding devices that can be connected to the at least one built-in component. The holding devices each include a clamping unit with receiving space defined by at least two clamping members, wherein the receiving space can be moved between an open and a closed state through movement of at least one of the clamping members in the direction of the other clamping member in each case and wherein the clamping unit is configured to move the at least one clamping member by pressing the clamping unit onto a base element when the receiving space is in the open state and thereby closing the receiving space including the base element.

  • Patent number: 10773782
    Abstract: An interior component carrier system comprises a first and second installation rail. Each rail includes at least one connecting portion connectable to an associated primary structure component to fasten the rail to the component, and a carrier portion extending from the connecting portion in a direction along a longitudinal axis of the system. The system further comprises a first carrier element having a first end connected to a first carrier rod extending in a direction along the longitudinal axis and a second end connectable to a first interior component, wherein the first carrier rod is fastened to the carrier portion of the first rail, and a second carrier element having a first end connected to a second carrier rod extending in the longitudinal axis direction and a second end connected to the first carrier element, wherein the second carrier rod is fastened to the second rail carrier portion.

  • Patent number: 10479281
    Abstract: An equipment mounting device and an installation arrangement for mounting an equipment to two fittings. The mounting device comprises a longitudinal carrier configured to be coupled to the equipment, and sized to span a space between the two fittings. A first coupling is disposed at a first end of the longitudinal carrier. The first coupling is configured to be coupled with a first of the two fittings and, when coupled with the first fitting, to prevent movement of the carrier in a first direction different from a direction along a longitudinal axis of the longitudinal carrier. A second coupling is configured to detachably couple with a second of the two fittings by receiving a part of the second fitting and, when coupled with the second fitting, to prevent movement of the carrier at least in the first direction and the direction of the longitudinal axis of the carrier.

  • Publication number: 20190193872
    Abstract: A system for installing modules on a fuselage structure has modules with holders arranged thereon for fastening on a fuselage structure, assembly stands, which can be moved on a floor level, and a flexible connecting element, extending via all the modules and coupling them together. Each assembly stand has a base for supporting the stand on the floor level and a holding device, designed to support the module. The assembly stands, the modules and the at least one connecting element are designed to form a chain of assembly stands, such that two successive groups of assembly stands enclose a pivot point at which the mutually facing modules have a larger spacing relative to one another than the modules within the respective groups. The connecting element allows the pivoting of the groups relative to one another at the pivot point through an angle of at least 90°.
