Abstract
A mounting fixture for detachably fastening cover plates in an aircraft. For fixing, a retaining bracket fixed on the cover plate is snap-fitted onto a retaining pin fixed on a substructure of the fuselage cell. A first holder is fixed on the retaining pin for receiving at least one connecting element, and a second holder is displaceably fitted in a forked holder on the retaining bracket. The forked holder has a roughly U-shaped form with two upright arms each connected at their lower ends by a base plate. Two connecting elements are preferably each fixed in the holders. The connecting elements are formed as electrical and/or optical sockets and plugs each with cabling attached. By swiveling a contacting lever the second holder can be moved linearly to and fro in relation to the first holder and can be introduced and pushed at least in part into the first holder whereby the final electrical and/or optical contact is produced by means of the sockets and the plugs.
