Cargo compartment with robot, aircraft, freight storage device

1. An aircraft having a cargo compartment and a passenger compartment and at least one freight administration device,

wherein the freight administration device comprises at least one freight item receiver device to receive a freight item, at least one input device to detect a code allocated to the freight item, and at least one freight item loading robot,

wherein the freight item receiver comprises a lift for transporting the freight item between the passenger compartment and the cargo compartment, the lift including a first opening opening into the passenger compartment and a second opening opening into the cargo compartment;

wherein the robot is arranged displaceably in a peripheral linear guide on a ceiling construction or wall construction of the cargo compartment and has at least one robot arm with at least one receiver tool to receive freight items,

wherein the freight administration device is adapted to control the robot such that a freight item received in the first opening of the lift is stowed in the cargo compartment after the detection of the code,

wherein the freight administration device memorizes the storage position of the freight item in conjunction with the detected code,

wherein the freight administration device is adapted to control at least the robot such that the associated freight item is provided from the cargo compartment to the second opening of the lift for transport to the passenger compartment after input of a code by means of the input device wherein the administration device uses the stored storage position to determine the position of the freight item.

2. The aircraft of claim 1 , wherein the input device comprises a read device for an identification code, arranged on or in the freight item.

3. The aircraft of claim 2 , wherein the read device is adapted to read a passive transponder or a 2D code or a 3D code.

4. The aircraft of claim 1 , wherein the cargo compartment comprises a multiplicity of freight compartments each formed by a multiplicity of side walls and having at least one freight opening for insertion and removal of freight items and wherein the administration device controls the robot such that the freight items are inserted and removed from the freight compartments.

5. The aircraft of claim 1 , wherein the freight item received by the receiver device is hand luggage, where the freight item is picked up by the robot.

6. The aircraft of claim 1 , comprising a passenger detection device to detect the position of at least one passenger and provide corresponding position data, wherein the freight administration device is adapted to take into account the position data on an unloading process.

7. The aircraft of claim 1 , wherein at least two robots are in the peripheral linear guide and comprise drive units for moving the robots along the linear guide such that the robots can pick up freight items at a loading hatch in a sequential manner.

8. A cargo compartment of an aircraft comprising at least two robots, each with at least one robot arm with at least one receiver tool to receive freight items, wherein the robots are arranged displaceably in a peripheral linear guide on a ceiling construction of the cargo compartment and comprise drive units for moving the robots along the linear guide such that the robots can pick up freight items at a loading hatch in a sequential manner.

9. The cargo compartment of claim 8 , wherein the receiver tool comprises at least one vacuum head to hold freight items with an at least partially air-impermeable outer skin.

10. The cargo compartment of claim 8 , wherein the receiver tool comprises at least one gripper tool for gripping freight items.

11. An aircraft having a cargo compartment and a passenger compartment and at least one freight administration device,

wherein the freight administration device comprises at least one freight item receiver device to receive a freight item, at least one input device to detect a code allocated to the freight item, and at least one freight item loading robot,

wherein the robot is arranged displaceably in a peripheral linear guide on a ceiling construction or wall construction of the cargo compartment and has at least one robot arm with at least one receiver tool to receive freight items,

wherein the freight administration device is adapted, after input of a code by means of the input device, to control at least the robot such that the associated freight item is provided from the cargo compartment to the passenger compartment in the freight item receiver device,

the cargo compartment comprises a freight deck with passive freight transport devices, the passive freight transport devices comprising ball mats or rollers or roller tracks, wherein the robot is designed and/or arranged for moving freight units stored on the freight conveyor devices.

12. A method for loading and unloading of an aircraft having a cargo compartment which comprises a robot arranged displaceably in a peripheral linear guide, a passenger compartment and at least one lift which connects the passenger compartment and the cargo compartment, the method comprising:

allowing a passenger to take individual freight items into the passenger compartment;

introducing the freight item into a first opening of the lift, the first opening opening into the passenger compartment;

transporting the freight item in the lift from the passenger compartment to the cargo compartment by the lift;

picking up the freight item at a second opening of the lift with a receiver tool of the robot, the second opening opening into the cargo compartment;

placing the freight item in a storage location in the cargo compartment by the robot and memorizing the storage position of the freight item in conjunction with a code allocated to the freight item;

providing the code to an input device in the passenger compartment by the passenger wanting to collect the freight item;

determining the position of the freight item using the code;

picking up the freight item at the storage location associated with the code in the cargo compartment;

placing the freight item in the lift through the second opening of the lift;

transporting the freight item from the cargo compartment to the passenger compartment by the lift;

providing the freight item to the passenger.
