Fastening arrangement for lashing brackets in the floor of a cargo hold of an aircraft
View Patent ↗Disclosed is a fastening arrangement for lashing brackets in the floor of a cargo hold of an aircraft. In this case, a plurality of channels that extend in the longitudinal direction of the aircraft, together with transverse profiles or frames lying under them, form a grid-like floor framework. The frames and the channels extend in each case preferably such that they are uniformly spaced apart and parallel to one another. A lashing bracket is pivotably accommodated in the at least one channel. The connection between the lashing bracket, the channel and the frame can be performed with two half-barrel nuts, which are arranged in the region of a thickening of the web of the frame and into which two screw bolts are screwed.
1. A fastening arrangement for lashing brackets in a floor of a cargo hold of an aircraft to create lashing points, wherein:
at least one lashing bracket is pivotably accommodated in at least one channel that extends parallel to a longitudinal axis of the aircraft, the at least one channel is arranged on a plurality of transverse profiles that extend transversely in relation to the longitudinal axis, and
the at least one channel and the at least one lashing bracket are fastened on at least one of the transverse profiles by at least two barrel nuts.
2. The fastening arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one transverse profile is at least one of a transverse beam and a frame of a fuselage cell of the aircraft.
3. The fastening arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one transverse profile has, at least in certain portions in a region of a web, a thickening in which at least two transverse holes are made to receive the barrel nuts.
4. The fastening arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the at least two barrel nuts are half-barrel nuts.
5. The fastening arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the channel has a U-shaped cross-sectional geometry with a base and two perpendicular side walls, each of the side walls having horizontally outward directed flanges.
6. The fastening arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein two fork holders lying opposite one another bear against side walls of the at least one channel, each fork holder having a base plate with two legs arranged perpendicularly and spaced apart from one another, two opposite horizontal holes being respectively provided in each leg.
7. The fastening arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein through two opposite horizontal holes of each one of two fork holders there is respectively guided a bolt, on which a lashing bracket leg is in each case pivotably accommodated.
8. The fastening arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein base plates of fork holders each have a base plate hole and the at least one transverse profile has two vertical holes with an oversize to compensate for tolerance, in such a way that a screw bolt can in each case be guided through the base plate hole and a vertical hole to produce a screw connection with one of the barrel nuts.
9. The fastening arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the transverse profiles are uniformly spaced apart from one another.
