RAIL SYSTEM AND METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MOUNTING A COMPONENT IN AN AIRCRAFT
The invention relates to a rail system (10) which can be used for mounting a component in an aircraft. Said rail system comprises a first rail element (12) provided with a securing device (22) in order to detachably secure the first rail element (12) in the region of the base of the aircraft fuselage element (28), one section (12b') of the first rail element (12) protruding above the edge of the base of the aircraft fuselage element (28) The first rail element (12) also comprising a guide device (32) to enable a mounting aid element (66) which is introduced into the aircraft fuselage element (28) to slide in a guided manner in relation to the rail system (10). Said rail system (10) also comprises a second rail element (14). Said rail system (10) also comprising a second rail element (14) comprising a securing device (44) in order to secure the second rail element (14) in a detachable manner in the region of the base of the aircraft fuselage element (28), one section (14b') of the second rail element (14) protruding over an edge of the base of the aircraft fuselage element (28) when said second rail element (14) is connected to said aircraft fuselage element (28). Said second rail element (14) also comprises a guide device (52) to enable the mounting aid (66) which is to be introduced into the aircraft fuselage element (28) to slide in a guided manner in relation to the rail system (10).
