An adjustable orifice for use in an aircraft air conditioning system includes a first orifice element which has an orifice frame as well as a first orifice area. When the orifice is assembled at a duct, the first orifice area of the first orifice element leaves open a part of a cross section of the duct. The orifice also includes a second orifice element with a second orifice area. When the orifice is assembled at the duct, the second orifice area of the second orifice element leaves open a part of the cross section of the duct. The second orifice element is rotatable about an axis, so that the second orifice area is rotatable relative to the first orifice area in order to set a desired flow cross section in the duct.

A shower drainage outlet for a shower tub in an aircraft is stated, which shower drainage outlet comprises three parts that can be displaced, angled or rotated in relation to one another. In this way horizontal, vertical and angular tolerances can be compensated for. Furthermore, the shower drainage outlet is designed to be inserted through an opening in the floor region of the aircraft.

An adapter for coupling connecting pipes for a commercial aircraft comprises an adapter top and an adapter bottom. The adapter bottom has a first adapter pipe that can be positioned within a recess in a floor of the aircraft. An attachment flange is formed to the external circumference of the first adapter pipe, through whose central flange opening the first adapter pipe is led, which attachment flange is positioned on the first adapter pipe end of the first adapter pipe and is attached by one flange side to a bottom floor region of the floor. The adapter top has a second adapter pipe to which a tubular supporting flange is joined. The pipe end region reinforced with said supporting flange of the second adapter pipe is inserted into the pipe cross section of the first adapter pipe.
