Abstract
An apparatus for fastening a component to an aircraft cabin attachment structure, the attachment structure having a fastening tube with a longitudinal axis. The apparatus has an internally bored sleeve rotatably positionable on the fastening tube and an external thread. A holding body connects to the component and has two spaced-apart limbs and a bearing surface enclosed by the limbs, and on which, an internal thread configured to the sleeve external thread, is arranged. A device fixes the holding body to the threaded sleeve and the fastening tube, the external and internal threads being non-self-locking. When the holding body internal thread presses against the threaded sleeve external thread, the threaded sleeve rotates until the external and internal threads align. The fixing device connects the threaded sleeve to the holding body in a rotationally fixed manner and fixes the holding body transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis.
