Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A lashing device for a cargo loading system of a means of transport, in particular an aircraft, includes a main body for load bearing and securing to a supporting structure, and at least two lashing elements for lashing loads or goods. The at least two lashing elements are mounted on the main body to be pivotable about a pivot axis and are designed to be lashable in each case individually or as a unit. An aircraft is disclosed having the lashing device.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A lashing device for a cargo loading system comprising: a main body for load bearing and securing to a supporting structure; and at least two lashing elements for lashing loads or goods, the at least two lashing elements being mounted on the main body to be pivotable about a pivot axis and are configured to be lashable in each case individually or as a unit. 2 . The lashing device according to claim 1 , wherein the at least two lashing elements each have two end sections which form the mounting, which is pivotable about the pivot axis, on the main body. 3 . The lashing device according to claim 2 , wherein the two end sections of a first lashing element of the at least two lashing elements are formed in a complementary manner to corresponding end sections of a second lashing element of the at least two lashing elements such that the corresponding end sections of the at least two lashing elements are next to each other along the pivot axis. 4 . The lashing device according to claim 3 , wherein an end section of the first lashing element has a bifurcation region which axially delimits a corresponding end section of the second lashing element with respect to the pivot axis. 5 . The lashing device according to claim 3 , wherein an end section of the first lashing element and a corresponding end section of the second lashing element each have a bifurcation region, wherein the two bifurcation regions are in engagement with each other. 6 . The lashing device according to claim 2 , wherein the two end sections each have a through hole in a direction of the pivot axis and are mounted on the main body to be pivotable about the pivot axis by two bolt devices, wherein the two bolt devices correspond to the through holes in the two end sections. 7 . The lashing device according to claim 1 , wherein the at least two lashing elements substantially have a square or semi-circular cross section, wherein mutually facing sides of the at least two lashing elements form mutually corresponding surfaces for a flat contact of the mutually facing sides. 8 . The lashing device according to claim 1 , wherein a maximum load capacity is distributable between the at least two lashing elements. 9 . The lashing device according to claim 1 , wherein the at least two lashing elements are pivotable about the pivot axis into an at least approximately horizontal position to provide the lashing device in a space-saving and/or obstruction-free manner in a non-lashed state. 10 . The lashing device according to claim 1 , further comprising a clamping device configured to hold the at least two lashing elements together in a non-lashed state as a unit, so that the at least two lashing elements are pivotable together. 11 . An aircraft comprising a cargo loading system having at least one lashing device according to claim 1 .
