Abstract
An aircraft stowage compartment includes a main body, a swiveling compartment swiveling relative to the main body, and a spring unit therebetween. In an active state, a spring device of the spring unit generates closing forces on the swiveling compartment prevented in a passive state. A connection unit with a connection element in biased zero position switches on the passive state and in connection position switches on the active state. The connection unit has a locking device biased towards locking, for the connection element in the connection position. The connection unit has a release element for the locking device actuatable from biased rest position into release position. In the rest position, locking of the connection element in the connection position is enabled by the locking device and prevented in the release position. An aircraft includes a basic structure, the stowage compartment and the main body fixed to the basic structure.
