Abstract

An interior component carrier system comprises a first and second installation rail. Each rail includes at least one connecting portion connectable to an associated primary structure component to fasten the rail to the component, and a carrier portion extending from the connecting portion in a direction along a longitudinal axis of the system. The system further comprises a first carrier element having a first end connected to a first carrier rod extending in a direction along the longitudinal axis and a second end connectable to a first interior component, wherein the first carrier rod is fastened to the carrier portion of the first rail, and a second carrier element having a first end connected to a second carrier rod extending in the longitudinal axis direction and a second end connected to the first carrier element, wherein the second carrier rod is fastened to the second rail carrier portion.
