Abstract

A component system for an aircraft, having at least one furnishing component, a plurality of component rails, a plurality of guide elements engageable with and movable relative to the component rails, a plurality of retaining elements connected to the guide elements and configured to be coupled to a hull structure of the aircraft or the at least one furnishing component, and a plurality of locking units arranged on the component rails and/or on the guide elements and configured to lock the guide elements to a particular rail. At least two component rails are arranged on the at least one furnishing component or the hull structure at a distance and parallel to each other such that the furnishing component is retractable via the component rails on guide elements or component rails that are spatially fixed in the aircraft and can be locked in a retracted position by the locking units.
