A rail system for a cabin of the vehicle comprises a rail with a main extension direction, a fixing element which can be fixed at various positions of the rail to hold a mounting element on the rail, and a cover device for covering the rail. The cover device has several planar cover elements arranged in continuous series extending along the rail, wherein the cover elements are each mounted so as to be pivotable between a closed state in which the respective cover element lies on the rail and an open state in which the respective cover element is removed from the rail. The fixing element has an engagement element which is configured, on displacement of the fixing element along the rail, to reach below a cover element and move the cover element from the closed state to the open state.

An adapter rail system for mounting objects to a floor rail in a vehicle includes an elongate adapter rail element, an arresting element and a movement rail element. The adapter rail element has a surface contour having regularly consecutively arranged neckings and widenings, which surface contour corresponds to an opening contour of a floor rail, which includes regularly consecutively arranged grid openings, which are penetrated by a slit. The adapter rail element has protrusions extending perpendicular to the plane spanned by the surface contour and are each arranged in the region of a necking. The arresting element has a surface contour corresponding to the opening contour of at least one grid opening. The arresting element is dimensioned to be flush between two adjacent protrusions of the adapter rail element onto the adapter rail element. The movement rail element is connectable with the protrusions of the adapter rail element.

Disclosed is a securing device for providing a movable unit of a linear guiding mechanism with additional safety in that the securing device prevents the movable unit from coming off a guiding rail in case of a bearing malfunction. The securing device comprises at least one securing portion and a coupling portion for coupling the at least one securing portion to the movable unit. The securing portion is engageable with the guiding rail in case of a failure of the movable unit.

A seat track cover for a passenger seat of an aircraft is positionable on a seat track. The seat track cover is mechanically coupled at a first end to a seat leg structure of the passenger seat via a pivot joint. The seat track cover is arranged substantially parallel to the seat track and takes up a covering position which covers a seat track located therebeneath when the passenger seat is in its working position. The seat track cover takes up a stowed position in a second state, wherein, in the stowed position, the seat track cover is pivotable out of the parallel plane with respect to the seat track via a pivoting movement about the pivot of the pivot joint. The transition from the covering position to the stowed position takes place via the pivoting movement about the first end of the seat track cover.

A floor system for a vehicle is provided. The floor system includes at least one floor panel having a top surface, a bottom surface and a first recess extending through the top surface, at least one primary coil device having at least one primary coil and a connection line, and at least one cover plate. The at least one primary coil device is positioned inside the first recess and the at least one cover plate is located in the recess above the at least one primary coil device so as to close the first recess flush with the top surface. It is possible to provide the at least one floor panel made from a carbon fiber reinforced material as it cannot electrically shield the at least one primary coil to a space above the top surface, when the at least one cover plate is made from a non-conductive material.

A folding passenger seat and a corresponding passenger seating system for means of passenger transport are provided. The folding passenger seat comprises a seat frame, on which a front seat leg having a first fastening element and a rear seat leg having a second fastening element are arranged. The first fastening element and the second fastening element are configured to be connected to rails on a cabin floor of the means of passenger transport and to be displaced in the rails. A first joint element is arranged between the first fastening element and the second fastening element such that a spacing between the first fastening element and the second fastening element is variable. In particular, the first joint element may be arranged between the front seat leg and the seat frame or between the rear seat leg and the seat frame.

A passenger seat including a holding device for a media reproducing apparatus, includes a base holding fixture attached to a backrest of said passenger seat, at least one adapter adapted to be detachably connected with said base holding fixture, said adapter being configured for holding said media reproducing apparatus at said base holding fixture, a standardized electronic interface to the power supply of said media reproducing apparatus, and a protective shutter fixedly connected with said backrest. The protective shutter is adapted to be moved from an open position in which access to said adapter and said media reproducing apparatus is allowed, into a closed position in which said media reproducing apparatus and said adapter are completely covered by said protective shutter. The protective shutter is of break-proof configuration and made at least partially from a translucent material such that a screen is visible through said protective shutter in the closed position.

Passenger seat including a holding device for a media reproducing apparatus

A holding device is provided for fastening passenger seats in a means of passenger transport and a corresponding passenger seating system. The holding device comprises a seat leg fixing element, a sliding element and a rail element. The seat leg fixing element is designed to receive a seat leg of a passenger seat. The sliding element is provided on the opposite side of the holding device to the seat leg fixing element and is designed to be inserted in a seat rail located on the floor of the means of passenger transport. The rail element is provided on the same side as the seat leg fixing element and is designed to receive and fix a sliding element of an additional holding device. The holding device is provided on a front seat leg and the additional holding device is provided on a rear seat leg of a folding passenger seat.
