Abstract:
1. A mount for an aircraft for securing insulation material to a structure of the aircraft, wherein the insulation material has at least one hole having a first set of dimensions, the mount comprising: a first cable mount section; and a second cable mount section; wherein the first and the second cable mount sections are essentially made of a first material; wherein the first material is plastic; wherein the first and the second cable mount sections are connectable via a connecting element; wherein the connecting element is guided through an at least one recess of the insulation material; wherein the connecting element supports at least two plate shaped elements; wherein a first of the at least two plate-shaped elements has a second set of dimensions, which is larger than the first set of dimensions, so that the first of the at least two plate-shaped elements does not fit through the hole of the insulation material; wherein the insulation material is positioned between the at least two plate-shaped elements and is secured against falling down by the at least two plate-shaped elements; wherein the connecting element and the at least two plate-shaped elements are essentially made of a second material; wherein the second material is more heat-resistant or more fire-resistant than the first material; wherein the connecting element has a metal screw which is supported in one of the first and second cable mount sections; wherein the connecting element further has a metal nut which is supported in the other one of the first and second cable mount sections; wherein a head of the screw has a third set of dimensions representing the largest diameter of the screw head; wherein the nut has a fourth set of dimensions representing the distance across the nut; wherein one of the at least two plate-shaped elements has a hole having a fifth set of dimensions; wherein the fifth set of dimensions is smaller than the third and the fourth sets of dimensions; and wherein; when the first and second cable mount sections are connected, one of the at least two plate-shaped elements is positioned between the head of the metal screw and the nut.
