Abstract: A seat rail assembly for fastening a seat assembly in a vehicle and a method for making such a seat rail assembly are described. The seat rail assembly includes a seat rail configured to fasten the seat assembly, the seat rail including a metal material. A fastening profile element of the seat rail assembly is configured to receive the seat rail, the fastening profile element being formed of a plastic material. The fastening profile element forms a receiving region, which is configured to receive the seat rail, and the seat rail includes a seat rail crown which is arranged in the receiving region of the fastening profile element such that a wall portion of the fastening profile element at least partly extends around the seat rail crown. The seat rail assembly may be used in an aircraft.

Abstract: A floor system for creating a floor in an interior of a vehicle has base part and a floor panel. The base part having a trough-shaped depression and the floor panel are attached to a floor support structure and together provide a customary installation height and also cavities for accommodating installation objects.

Abstract: A rail system for fixing fittings in a cabin of a vehicle includes a first elongate rail body with a fixing side for fixing to a vehicle structure, an opposite support side with a support surface for receiving fittings, and a rail cross-section extending between the fixing side and the support side, and several fixing inserts which can be fixed along the support surface. The rail cross-section has two mutually opposing legs which are spaced apart from each other and run perpendicularly to the support surface, and the fixing inserts are configured so as not to protrude beyond the support surface.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a load bearing structure involves providing a panel; providing a first set of split stiffening elements on a surface of the panel, wherein the split stiffening elements of the first set have bottom surfaces and central portions with open top clearances, respectively, spaced apart from each other; providing a second set of stiffening elements having bottom surfaces and top surfaces and central portions, respectively; inserting the stiffening elements of the second set into respective open top clearances of the split stiffening elements of the first set and providing the second set of stiffening elements on the surface of the panel for forming a grate structure; and attaching top surfaces to the split stiffening elements of the first set for forming complete profiles.

Abstract: A reinforcing component for a structure of an aircraft or spacecraft has a first component region for reinforcing at least one other element, and at least one second component region, which is permanently connected to the first component region. The reinforcing component is formed using a thermoplastic plastics material in each of the first component region and the second component region. In the first component region, the thermoplastic plastics material forms a matrix in which continuous reinforcing fibres are embedded. In the second component region, the reinforcing component comprises discontinuous reinforcing fibres or is free of reinforcing fibres.

Abstract: A fiber reinforced plastic profile, in particular for an aircraft or spacecraft, including a stacked ply assembly including a plurality of stacked plies each comprising fiber material, the ply assembly having a profile cross section including at least one first section, at least one second section, and at least one splice section located between the at least one first section and the at least one second section. The splice section includes a first plurality of stacked plies having fibers of a first fiber material and a second plurality of stacked plies having fibers of a second fiber material. In the splice section, respective plies of the first plurality of stacked plies are intertwiningly abutted with respective plies of the second plurality of stacked plies.

Abstract: A fuselage structure comprises a plurality of elements that in longitudinal direction are interconnected by weld joints; a plurality of circumferential ribs that are connected to the plurality of elements and that extend so as to be substantially perpendicular in relation to the longitudinal direction of the elements; and a plurality of clips that are arranged between the elements and the ribs such that said clips do not cover the respective weld joints.
