Fastening device for releasably fastening a mechanism in the region of a floor of an aircraft or space craft and arrangement for a cargo loading system

A fastening device is disclosed for releasably fastening a mechanism in the region of a floor of an aircraft or spacecraft and includes a base component and a latch component. The latch component includes at least one holding portion including a latch-component-side holding face and is movably coupled to the base component between an unlocked and a locked position. When positioned in a predefined mounting position on the floor component and/or on the base component, the holding portion of the latch component engages a fastening portion, and the latch-component-side holding face faces the mechanism-side holding face. During passage of the latch component from locked position into unlocked position a gap between the latch-component-side holding face and the mechanism-side holding face continuously widens. The invention further relates to an arrangement for a cargo loading system.

Systems and methods for modular storage and management

Systems and methods for a modular warehouse system comprising: at least two modular stackable bins wherein said bins does not require structural support and may allow retrieval of at least one of said bins, regardless of its location in the pile, without changing said pile's order; at least two bin retrieval robots; at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium storing processor executable instructions on a computing device for warehouse management.

Support pad, system and leg assembly

A support pad including a body and a washer for supporting a leg is provided. The body includes a bottom and an opposed top defining a top external surface. The body has a central portion defining a spherically shaped pocket formed in the top of the body. The central portion receives a spherically shaped end of the leg and defines a central axis of the body. The body also has a dome shaped intermediate portion extending radially outward from the central portion. The body further has an outer portion extending radially outward from the central portion. The bottom includes a support pad support surface. The dome shaped intermediate portion has a uniform wall thickness. The washer is positioned adjacent the top external surface of the body and has an inner surface defining a central opening in the washer.

Article transport device and article transport facility including same

An article transport device includes a transport mechanism which is configured to support, from below, a container being transported and to transport the container along a transporting path, and a housing which forms an accommodating space in which at least a part of the transport mechanism is housed. The housing has one or more support plates, a plurality of brackets, and a housing panel.
