Abstract

The present invention concerns a netting arrangement for a cargo hold, in particular in an airplane, comprising: at least one netting including a plurality of fixation points preferably formed on an edge side, a plurality of fixation points formed on the cargo hold side, and at least one adapter for securing the netting in the cargo hold. The adapter is secured to at least two fixation points on the cargo hold side so as to divert a load applied to the adapter into the at least two fixation points on the cargo hold side. The adapter is arranged in the path of force between the netting fixation points preferably formed on an edge side and the fixation points on the cargo hold side. The adapter furnishes at least one adapter-side fixation point for securing the netting to the adapter. The fixation points for the netting are arranged in a plane identical with the plane of the adapter-side fixation points, independently of the load applied on the netting. In the condition where no load is applied on the netting, the netting is situated in the same plane as the adapter-side fixation points. The invention moreover relates to an adapter, preferably for use with a like netting arrangement.
