View Patent ↗A support device of cabin elements in an airplane. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a support device is provided into which a threaded bushing ( 7 ) can be screwed into a fastening element ( 6 ) in order to adjust the distance in z-direction of the airplane. Thus, a stepless adjustment is made possible in an advantageous way.
1. A support device for spacing an arrangement on a horizontal surface of an airplane, wherein the arrangement comprises a thread pointing towards the horizontal surface, wherein the horizontal surface comprises a recess, wherein the support device comprises:
a threaded bushing to be screwed into the thread of the arrangement;
wherein the threaded bushing comprises a thread bushing head, which is adapted for abutting at a horizontal surface at least in an indirect manner; and
wherein a distance between the horizontal surface and the arrangement is steplessly adjustable by screwing the threaded bushing into the thread of the arrangement,
wherein the threaded bushing comprises a first longitudinal bore;
wherein a first eccentric is provided in the first longitudinal bore;
wherein the first eccentric comprises a second longitudinal bore;
wherein a second eccentric is provided in the second longitudinal bore;
wherein the second eccentric comprises a third longitudinal bore;
wherein a bolt is provided in the third longitudinal bore, which bolt holds the arrangement in position on the horizontal surface in connection with a thread in the first recess or with a corresponding nut; and
wherein a fixing position of the arrangement in relation to the recess is adjustable in at least one direction (x,y) parallel to the horizontal surface by turning the first and second eccentric,
wherein a non-threaded bushing is provided to be arranged in the recess;
wherein the non-threaded bushing is provided to be arranged between the thread bushing head and the recess;
wherein a sealing ring is provided to be arranged between the non-threaded bushing and the recess in order to seal the recess.
2. The support device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the support device is implemented to fasten a galley on a floor of a passenger cabin in an airplane.
