A stowage bin assembly includes a bin bucket assembly having a bin bucket which includes at least one sidewall, the at least one sidewall including a notch and the at least one sidewall having an interior surface. The stowage bin assembly also includes at least one hinge assembly. The at least one hinge assembly includes a housing which is received in the notch, the housing having an interior surface, wherein the interior surface of the housing is substantially flush with the interior surface of the at least one sidewall when the housing of the at least one hinge assembly is received in the notch. The stowage bin assembly also includes a stowage bin door pivotably coupled to the bin bucket assembly via the at least one hinge assembly, the stowage bin door moveable between an open position and a closed position. Related components, assemblies, and devices are also provided.

Integrated stowage bin assembly

A seat track fitting assembly can include a seat track having a channel sized and shaped to removably, coupleably receive a seat track fitting, which seat track fitting can include a central flange having a lug aperture which is sized and shaped to be coupleable to a payload component, and at least a pair of shear pads, with each one of the shear pads protruding outwardly from opposing sides of the central flange and including a shear flange, and a tensile flange, wherein the tensile flange and the shear flange are integrally formed with the central flange. Related methods are also provided.

Payload attachment fitting and methods to use the same

A power interface system is provided. The power interface system can include a power interface device coupleable to a structure, wherein the power interface device can include a receptacle region and a plurality of pin receiving apertures. The power interface system may include an electrical device module sized and shaped to be received in the receptacle region, the electrical device module having a plurality of contact pins, each of the plurality of contact pins sized and shaped to be coupleably received in one of the pin receiving apertures. The electrical device module can be rotatably moveable with respect to the receptacle region between an uncoupled orientation and a coupled orientation, with the electrical device module being secured to the power interface device in the coupled orientation. Related devices and methods are also provided.
