Claim:
An aircraft, comprising: a fuselage operatively coupled to an airframe; a propulsion system operatively coupled to the airframe; a floor assembly disposed within and coupled to the fuselage, the floor assembly including at least one floor panel and an elongated support having a support surface engaged with the floor panel, the elongated support further including an engagement member having a plurality of coupling apertures disposed therein; a component disposed within the fuselage and having a support member positioned proximate the floor assembly; and an interface assembly including: a base engaged with a first surface of the engagement member, the base having a pair of clamp arms projecting outwardly therefrom, each clamp arm being disposed through an associated one of the coupling apertures and engaged with a second surface of the engagement member, the clamp arms being moveable relative to the engagement member between an unsecured position in which the clamp arms are extractable from the coupling apertures, and a secured position wherein the clamp arms are not extractable from the coupling apertures, wherein each clamp arm includes a primary member that projects through the associated one of the coupling apertures, and a finger projecting outwardly from the primary member and engaged with the second surface; a support arm coupled to the base and coupled to the support member of the component; and at least one lug member operatively coupled to the base and moveable between a first position wherein the clamp arms are positioned in the unsecured position, and a second position wherein the clamp arms are positioned in the secured position, wherein in the second position, the lug member is inserted into an intermediate coupling aperture disposed in the engagement member between the associated coupling apertures.
