A supply system for supplying passengers in a passenger compartment of a vehicle, in particular an aircraft, includes a supply line and a number of supply modules which, for supplying the passengers, are connectable to the supply line. The supply modules are displaceable relative to one another along the supply line, the supply line having one or a plurality of supply openings by which the connection between the supply line and the supply modules can be established, each supply module furthermore being assigned at least one screen which is arranged in such a manner on the service supply line that it is displaceable along the supply line and can cover a part of the one supply opening or of the plurality of supply openings which is not used for the connection of a supply module to the supply line.

A transport device for use when mounting interior component modules in an aircraft includes an undercarriage and an interior component module carrier unit. The interior component module carrier unit is supported on the undercarriage and is adapted to be connected to an interior component module, which is preassembled outside of the aircraft, in order to transport the interior component module with the aid of the transport device into a final assembly position in an aircraft fuselage element. At least a part of the interior component module carrier unit is movable relative to the undercarriage such that an interior component module connected to the interior component module carrier unit is movable horizontally and vertically relative to the undercarriage.

A rail system for use when assembling a component in an aircraft comprises a first rail element having a securing device which is designed to be complementary to a first securing device provided in the region of a floor of an aircraft fuselage element and is adapted to cooperate with the first securing device in order to releasably secure the first rail element in the region of the floor of the aircraft fuselage element, wherein a section of the first rail element projects beyond an edge of the floor of the aircraft fuselage element in the connected state of the first rail element and the aircraft fuselage element. The first rail element furthermore comprises a guide device, which is designed to be complementary to a first guide device provided on an assembly aid, which is to be introduced into the aircraft fuselage element, and is adapted to cooperate with the first guide device to enable a guided displacement of the assembly aid to be introduced into the aircraft fuselage element relative to the rail system. The rail system furthermore comprises a second rail element having a securing device which is designed to be complementary to a second securing device provided in the region of the floor of the aircraft fuselage element and is adapted to cooperate with the second securing device in order to releasably secure the second rail element in the region of the floor of the aircraft fuselage element, wherein a section of the second rail element projects beyond an edge of the floor of the aircraft fuselage element in the connected state of the second rail element and the aircraft fuselage element. The second rail element furthermore comprises a guide device, which is designed to be complementary to a second guide device provided on an assembly aid, which is to be introduced into the aircraft fuselage element, and is adapted to cooperate with the second guide device to enable a guided displacement of the assembly aid to be introduced into the aircraft fuselage element relative to the rail system.

A method for mounting interior components in an aircraft includes premounting a first interior component and premounting a second interior component. At least one of the first and the second interior component is secured to a mounting device and the first and second interior components are connected to form an individual module. A plurality of individual modules secured to the mounting device are interconnected to form a large module which is secured to the mounting device. The large module is detached from the mounting device and transported to a final-mounting position in an aircraft fuselage element. The detached large module is then mounted in the aircraft fuselage element.
