  • System and method for manufacturing a vehicle cabin
    Patent number: 8534603
    Abstract: A system for manufacturing a vehicle cabin includes, but is not limited to at least one first installation component, at least one first surface element, and at least one guide element. The first surface element is slidably arranged on the first installation component with the guide element to form a cabin module, and the guide element is lockable in at least one assembly position and at least one operating position. The resultant cabin module in the assembly position includes, but is not limited to outer dimensions enabling incorporation into a fuselage section of a vehicle, so that the cabin module in the operating position can make up at least a section of the cabin in the fuselage section of the vehicle.

  • Aircraft having a force transmission element between a cabin structural element and a primary structure
    Patent number: 8430362
    Abstract: The invention relates to an aircraft comprising a force transmission element which detachably connects a cabin structural segment to an aircraft primary structure and which comprises a cabin bearing element and a structure bearing element, the cabin bearing element being connected to the cabin structural segment and the structure bearing element being connected to the aircraft primary structure. The force transmission element is designed in such a manner that a force transmission can take place between the cabin structural segment and the aircraft primary structure with at least one degree of freedom of movement.
