Integrated lavatory galley monument
A monument assembly configured to be positioned interior of an aircraft that includes a galley module, a first lavatory module and a second lavatory module. The module is positioned between the first and second lavatory modules, and the first lavatory module and the galley module share a first inboard dividing wall that includes at least a first non-vertical wall section.
1. A monument assembly configured to be positioned in the interior of an aircraft, the monument assembly comprising:
a galley module, a first lavatory module and a second lavatory module, wherein the galley module is positioned between the first and second lavatory modules, a first inboard dividing wall positioned between the first lavatory module and the galley module, wherein the first inboard dividing wall includes an upper section, a lower section and a first non-vertical wall section positioned between the upper section and the lower section, a second inboard dividing wall positioned between the second lavatory module and the galley module, wherein a storage space is defined between the lower section of the first inboard dividing wall and the second inboard dividing wall, and wherein the first non-vertical wall section is positioned directly above at least a portion of the storage space.
2. The monument assembly of claim 1 wherein the distance between the lower section of the first inboard dividing wall and the second inboard dividing wall is greater than the distance between the upper section of the first inboard dividing wall and the second inboard dividing wall.
3. The monument assembly of claim 1 wherein the second inboard dividing wall includes an upper section, a lower section and a second non-vertical wall section positioned between the upper section and the lower section, wherein the storage space is defined between the lower section of the first inboard dividing wall and the lower section of the second inboard dividing wall, and wherein the second non-vertical wall section is positioned directly above at least a portion of the storage space.
4. The monument assembly of claim 3 wherein the distance between the lower section of the first inboard dividing wall and the lower section of the second inboard dividing wall is greater than the distance between the upper section of the first inboard dividing wall and the upper section of the second inboard dividing wall.
5. The monument assembly of claim 3 wherein the first lavatory module, galley module and second lavatory module include a shared rear wall.
6. The monument assembly of claim 5 further comprising a first sink positioned on the first non-vertical wall section.
7. The monument assembly of claim 6 further comprising a second sink positioned on the second non-vertical wall section.
8. The monument assembly of claim 3 wherein the galley module includes a counter, and wherein the counter and the first and second non-vertical wall sections are co-planar.
9. The monument assembly of claim 8 wherein the galley module includes a counter, and wherein the counter and the first and second non-vertical wall sections are unitary.
10. An aircraft comprising
a cabin that defines a cabin interior,
a monument assembly positioned within the cabin interior, wherein the monument assembly includes a galley module, a first lavatory module and a second lavatory module, wherein the galley module is positioned between the first and second lavatory modules, a first inboard dividing wall positioned between the first lavatory module and the galley module, wherein the first inboard dividing wall includes an upper section, a lower section and a first non-vertical wall section positioned between the upper section and the lower section, a second inboard dividing wall positioned between the second lavatory module and the galley module, wherein a storage space is defined between the lower section of the first inboard dividing wall and the second inboard dividing wall, and wherein the first non-vertical wall section is positioned directly above at least a portion of the storage space.
11. The aircraft of claim 10 further comprising a cart positioned in the storage space, wherein at least a portion of the cart is positioned directly below the first non-vertical wall section.
12. The aircraft of claim 10 wherein the distance between the lower section of the first inboard dividing wall and the second inboard dividing wall is greater than the distance between the upper section of the first inboard dividing wall and the second inboard dividing wall.
13. The aircraft of claim 10 wherein the second inboard dividing wall includes an upper section, a lower section and a second non-vertical wall section positioned between the upper section and the lower section, wherein the storage space is defined between the lower section of the first inboard dividing wall and the lower section of the second inboard dividing wall, and wherein the second non-vertical wall section is positioned directly above at least a portion of the storage space.
14. The aircraft of claim 13 wherein the distance between the lower section of the first inboard dividing wall and the lower section of the second inboard dividing wall is greater than the distance between the upper section of the first inboard dividing wall and the upper section of the second inboard dividing wall.
15. The aircraft of claim 13 wherein the first lavatory module, galley module and second lavatory module include a shared rear wall.
16. The aircraft of claim 15 further comprising a first sink positioned on the first non-vertical wall section.
17. The aircraft of claim 16 further comprising a second sink positioned on the second non-vertical wall section.
