Abstract

A fastening device is provided for an aircraft interior equipment component, with at least one suspension point which is formed to transmit forces to a holding structure in at least one direction. In order to install the aircraft interior equipment components quickly and without tools, each suspension point is formed by a rotatable sliding block and a groove, wherein the groove has a transverse dimension as well as a first open end and a second end which leads into a circular recess. The sliding block also has a transverse dimension which is smaller than or equal to the transverse dimension of the groove and a longitudinal dimension which is greater than the transverse dimension of the groove, so that the sliding block can be positively locked by a rotation thereof in the circular recess.
