Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present technology relates to an arrangement structure for a pump-type bottle in an aircraft cabin.


BACKGROUND ART

In recent years, measures for preventing infections with a novel coronavirus have been widely taken in various countries around the world. Most of the infections with the novel coronavirus are said to be caused by touching eyes, a nose, or a mouth with hands and fingers with viruses attached due to contact with objects.


It is preferable to take measures to prevent the infections with the novel coronavirus also in an aircraft cabin.


The present inventor has focused on a pump-type bottle and thought that if a pump-type bottle containing a disinfectant for disinfecting hands and fingers is disposed in an aircraft cabin, passengers and cabin attendants can disinfect their hands and fingers, which is advantageous in preventing the infections with the novel coronavirus in the cabin.


On the other hand, the disinfectant is discharged by pushing down a head portion of the pump-type bottle, and the pump-type bottle needs to be placed at a height at which the head portion can be pushed down.


For this purpose, it is conceivable that a placement platform dedicated to the pump-type bottle is disposed at a predetermined height on a floor of the aircraft cabin.


Unfortunately, disposing such a placement platform needs to have a space for disposing the placement platform on a narrow floor in the cabin.


In addition, the placement platform has a predetermined height, and thus the volume of members constituting the placement platform increases, thus increasing the weight of the structure for disposing the pump-type bottle in the cabin.


SUMMARY

The present technology provides an arrangement structure fora pump-type bottle in an aircraft cabin, which needs no placement platform, needs no space on a floor, enables the pump-type bottle to be disposed in the aircraft cabin while reducing weight, and is advantageous in preventing infections with novel coronavirus in the aircraft cabin.


One embodiment of the present technology is an arrangement structure for a pump-type bottle in an aircraft cabin in which the pump-type bottle that can discharge a disinfectant for hands and fingers is disposed in the aircraft cabin. An arrangement instrument configured to attach the pump-type bottle is provided on a wall portion of the aircraft cabin. The pump-type bottle is disposed at the wall portion by using the arrangement instrument at a height at which a passenger can push down a head portion of the pump-type bottle.


According to the present technology, the pump-type bottle that can discharge a disinfectant for hands and fingers is disposed at a height at which a passenger can push down the head portion by using the arrangement instrument on the wall portion of the aircraft cabin.


Thus, a placement platform dedicated to the pump-type bottle is unnecessary, and the pump-type bottle can be disposed in the cabin without a space on a floor in the cabin.


In addition, since the arrangement instrument that is smaller and lighter than the placement platform is used, it is advantageous in reducing the weight of the structure for disposing the pump-type bottle in the cabin, and the pump-type bottle can be disposed in the cabin while reducing weight.


Therefore, the pump-type bottle that can discharge a disinfectant for hands and fingers can be disposed in the aircraft cabin, which is advantageous in preventing the infections with the novel coronavirus in the aircraft cabin.

A pump-type bottle 30 that can discharge a disinfectant for hands and fingers is provided at a wall portion in the cabin at a height at which a passenger can push down a head portion 3016 of the pump-type bottle 30.


Here, examples of the wall portion in the cabin includes the plurality of dividing walls 1010 provided behind the cockpit 1002, the partition walls 1012 that separate the first class from the economy class, the partition walls 1014 that partition the plurality of galleys 26, and wall portions constituting the structural frames 22A of the aircraft lavatory units 22.


In the present embodiment, the pump-type bottle 30 is provided at a wall portion constituting the structural frame 22A of each of the two aircraft lavatory units 22 at a height at which a passenger can push down the head portion 3016 of the pump-type bottle 30.


In the following second to seventh embodiments as well as the first embodiment, cases in which the pump-type bottle 30 is provided at a wall portion constituting the structural frame 22A of the aircraft lavatory unit 22 will be described, and the present technology is widely applied to other wall portions in the cabin.


In the first embodiment, the pump-type bottle 30 that can discharge a disinfectant is provided at the first side wall 2206 facing the latitudinal aisle 20 and not having the entrance 2232, and the pump-type bottle 30 is provided at a height at which a passenger can push down the head portion 3016 thereof.


Here, the height of the head portion 3016 at which a passenger can push down the head portion corresponds to, for example, a position about 80 cm to 140 cm above the floor.


The pump-type bottle 30 is provided at a location of the first side wall 2206 near the boarding entrance 24.


In the present embodiment, the pump-type bottle 30 is provided at a location of the first side wall 2206 closer to the boarding entrance 24 than the attendant seat 2242.


Thus, every time passengers use the aircraft lavatory unit 22, they can push down the head portion 3016 of the pump-type bottle 30 to discharge a disinfectant to their hands and fingers and easily disinfect them, which is advantageous in preventing the infections with the novel coronavirus in the aircraft cabin.


Further, since the pump-type bottle 30 that can discharge a disinfectant for hands and fingers is disposed at the first side wall 2206 constituting the latitudinal aisle 20 near the boarding entrance 24, passengers can disinfect their hands and fingers when boarding the aircraft and then board the aircraft, which is advantageous in preventing the infections with the novel coronavirus in the cabin.


Furthermore, since the pump-type bottle 30 that can discharge a disinfectant for hands and fingers is disposed lateral to the attendant seat 2242, cabin attendants can easily disinfect their hands and fingers by using the pump-type bottle 30 when sitting on or leaving the attendant seat 2242, which is advantageous in preventing passengers from being infected with the novel coronavirus via the cabin attendants in the cabin.


As illustrated in FIG. 2, the pump-type bottle 30 includes a container 3002 containing a disinfectant for hands and fingers, and a pump dispenser 3004 for discharging the disinfectant in the container 3002. The disinfectant for hands and fingers may be any disinfectant that is discharged from a nozzle portion 3018 to hands and fingers and widely includes a liquid or gel disinfectant.


The container 3002 is formed of a cylindrical shape having a uniform outer diameter and includes, at the center of an upper surface, a small diameter portion having a cylindrical shape and protruding upward. The small diameter portion includes a male thread formed on an outer circumferential surface thereof.


The pump dispenser 3004 includes: a hollow cap 3010 to be screwed to the small diameter portion; a cylinder 3012 held by the cap 3010, protruding above the cap 3010, and extending inside the container 3002; a tube attached to a bottom wall of the cylinder 3012 with a first one-way valve interposed, extending downward, and having a lower end located near a bottom surface of the container 3002; a piston that slides in the cylinder 3012 and forms a cylinder chamber between the piston and the bottom wall of the cylinder 3012; a piston rod 3014 protruding above an upper end of the cylinder 3012 from the piston; a spring constantly biasing the piston upward; the head portion 3016 provided at an upper end of the piston rod 3014; the nozzle portion 3018 protruding from the head portion 3016; a disinfectant passage communicating from the piston to the nozzle portion 3018; and a second one-way valve interposed in the disinfectant passage.


Thus, for example, when a hand is released from the head portion 3016 that has been pushed down, the piston is raised by biasing force of the spring to an upper limit position. The rise of the piston causes the pressure in the cylinder chamber to be negative, the second one-way valve is closed, the first one-way valve is opened, and the disinfectant in the container 3002 is sucked into the cylinder chamber via the tube.


When the head portion 3016 is pushed down, the cylinder chamber is compressed by the piston, the second one-way valve is opened, the first one-way valve is closed, the disinfectant in the cylinder chamber rises through the disinfectant passage, and the disinfectant is discharged from the nozzle portion 3018.


As such a pump-type bottle 30, commercially available products having known various structures can be used.


As illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3, the pump-type bottle 30 is disposed at the first side wall 2206 via an arrangement instrument 34.


The arrangement instrument 34 includes a lower support member 36 that is attached to the first side wall 2206 and supports a lower portion of the pump-type bottle 30 and an upper support member 38 that is attached to the first side wall 2206, separated from the lower support member 36, and supports an upper portion of the pump-type bottle 30.


Specifically, the arrangement instrument 34 includes the lower support member 36 that supports the lower portion of the pump-type bottle 30 while regulating the horizontal movement of the container 3002 and the upper support member 38 that is separated from the lower support member 36 and regulates the upward movement of the pump-type bottle 30 at the upper portion of the pump-type bottle 30.


As illustrated in FIGS. 4A-4B, the lower support member 36 includes a lower bracket 36A to be attached to the first side wall 2206.


The lower bracket 36A is made of an alloy or a fiber reinforced plastic and is preferably made of an aluminum alloy in view of strength, rigidity, lightness, processability, and design. In the present embodiment, the lower bracket 36A is made of an aluminum alloy.


The lower bracket 36A includes a base plate portion 3602, an upper plate portion 3604, a placement plate portion 3606, and a connecting plate portion 3608.


The base plate portion 3602 has a rectangular shape and includes first bolt insertion holes H1 at two locations, both sides of an upper portion of the base plate portion 3602 and at one location, the center of a lower portion of the base plate portion 3602.


As illustrated in FIG. 3, the base plate portion 3602 is placed on the first side wall 2206 and is attached to the first side wall 2206 via first bolts B1 which are male thread members inserted into the first bolt insertion holes H1. In the present embodiment, hexagonal socket bolts to be turned by a hexagonal wrench are used as the first bolts B1.


As illustrated in FIGS. 4A-4B, the upper plate portion 3604 protrudes from the upper end of the base plate portion 3602.


The upper plate portion 3604 includes a lower insertion hole 3604A having a circular shape through which a lower portion of the container 3002 of the pump-type bottle 30 is removably inserted and which regulates the horizontal movement of the lower portion of the container 3002 with the lower portion of the container 3002 inserted.


The placement plate portion 3606 is protruded from a portion of the base plate portion 3602 located below the upper plate portion 3604. A bottom portion of the container 3002 inserted through the lower insertion hole 3604A is placed on the placement plate portion 3606. The placement plate portion 3606 supports the weight of the pump-type bottle 30 receives the load of the pump-type bottle 30 applied when a passenger or a cabin attendant pushes down the head portion 3016.


The connecting plate portion 3608 is disposed protruding obliquely upward from a lower end of the base plate portion 3602 and connects ends of the upper plate portion 3604 and the placement plate portion 3606.


With the base plate portion 3602 attached to the first side wall 2206, all of the base plate portion 3602, the upper plate portion 3604, and the connecting plate portion 3608 extend in the horizontal direction.


In addition to the material having strength and rigidity for constituting the lower bracket 36A, the lower bracket 36A consisting of the base plate portion 3602, the upper plate portion 3604, and the connecting plate portion 3608 has a substantially triangular frame shape in a side view as illustrated in FIG. 4B, in other words, has a closed cross-sectional shape, the shape itself has strength and rigidity, and the lower bracket 36A is provided with strength and rigidity so as to be unbreakable with force of 136 kg-force (kgf) in the vertical direction or force of 136 kg-force (kgf) in the horizontal direction.


As illustrated in FIGS. 5A-5B, the upper support member 38 includes an upper bracket 38A to be attached to the first side wall 2206.


Similar to the lower bracket 36A, the upper bracket 38A is made of an alloy or a fiber reinforced plastic and is preferably made of an aluminum alloy in view of strength, rigidity, lightness, processability, and design. In the present embodiment, the upper bracket 38A is made of an aluminum alloy.


Since the upper bracket 38A is a member that regulates the upward movement of the pump-type bottle 30 as will be described later, the upper bracket 38A has a simpler configuration, a smaller size, and a lighter weight than the lower support member 36 and is advantageous in reducing the weight and cost of the upper support member 38, that is, reducing the weight and cost of the arrangement instrument 34.


The upper bracket 38A includes a mounting plate portion 3802 and a protruding plate portion 3804.


The mounting plate portion 3802 has an elongated rectangular shape and includes two second bolt insertion holes H2 in the mounting plate portion 3802.


As illustrated in FIG. 3, the mounting plate portion 3802 is placed on a location of the first side wall 2206 separated upward from the lower bracket 36A and is attached to the first side wall 2206 with second bolts B2 which are male thread members inserted into the second bolt insertion holes H2. In the present embodiment, hexagonal socket bolts to be turned by a hexagonal wrench are used as the second bolts B2.


As illustrated in FIGS. 5A-5B, the protruding plate portion 3804 is disposed protruding from an upper end of the mounting plate portion 3802.


The protruding plate portion 3804 includes an upper insertion hole 3804A through which the upper portion of the pump-type bottle 30 is removably inserted and which regulates the upward movement of the pump-type bottle 30.


In the present embodiment, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the upper insertion hole 3804A is formed to have an inside diameter larger than the outer diameter of the cylinder 3012 constituting the upper portion of the pump-type bottle 30 and smaller than the outer diameter of the cap 3010. Thus, the cap 3010 comes in contact with a portion of the protruding plate portion 3804 around the upper insertion hole 3804A, thus regulating the upward movement of the pump-type bottle 30.


As illustrated in FIG. 3, the wall portions of the structural frame 22A including the first side wall 2206 includes a core 2250 that has a honeycomb structure and is made of a synthetic fibrous material and a surface plate 2252 that is made of a fiber reinforced plastic and attached to both surfaces of the core 2250.


Since it is necessary to reduce the weights of wall portions provided in the aircraft cabin, every wall portion including the bottom wall 2202, the front wall 2204, the first side wall 2206, the second side wall 2208, the rear wall 2210 and the ceiling wall 2212 constituting the structural frame 22A of the aircraft lavatory unit 22 and the other walls provided in the aircraft cabin, for example, the plurality of dividing walls 1010 provided behind the cockpit 1002, the partition wall 1012 that partitions between the first class and the economy class, and the partition wall 1014 that partitions the plurality of galleys 26 includes the core 2250 that has a honeycomb structure and is made of a synthetic fibrous material and the surface plate 2252 that is made of a fiber reinforced plastic and attached to both surfaces of the core 2250 as illustrated in FIG. 3.


A reinforcement frame 40 is provided at a location of the first side wall 2206 to which the lower bracket 36A and the upper bracket 38A are attached.


As illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 3, the reinforcement frame 40 includes two thin reinforcement plates 4002 having large contours within which both the base plate portion 3602 of the lower bracket 36A and the mounting plate portion 3802 of the upper bracket 38A can be accommodated.


The thin reinforcement plates 4002 are made of a light-weight material having strength and rigidity higher than those of the surface plate 2252. As such a material, a metal material, a glass fiber reinforced plastic, or the like can be employed.


The thin reinforcement plates 4002 are attached to respective recess portions provided in the core 2250 such that the surfaces of the thin reinforcement plates 4002 and the surfaces of the core 2250 at portions where the thin reinforcement plates 4002 are not provided are positioned on the same planes.


A female thread member 42 having a female thread 4202 that can be engaged with the male thread of the first bolt B1 or the second bolt B2 is embedded in locations of the first side wall 2206 corresponding to the first bolt insertion holes H1 of the base plate portion 3602 and the second bolt insertion holes H2 of the mounting plate portion 3802.


The female thread member 42 is made of an alloy and includes a large diameter portion 4204 and a small diameter portion 4206 on each side. The small diameter portions 4206 on both sides are respectively inserted into holes of the thin reinforcement plates 4002 and the surface plates 2252, and an end surface of the large diameter portion 4204 on each side is disposed in contact with the thin reinforcement plate 4002.


That is, the locations of the first side wall 2206 where the female thread members 42 are disposed are reinforced by the reinforcement frame 40 provided inside the first side wall 2206.


When the pump-type bottle 30 is replenished with the disinfectant, the upper bracket 38A is detached from the first side wall 2206 by removing the second bolts B2 using a tool such as a hexagonal wrench, the pump-type bottle 30 is removed from the lower bracket 38A, the container 3002 is replenished with the disinfectant, and then the upper bracket 38A is attached again to the first side wall 2206 with the second bolts B2.


Alternatively, the lower bracket 36A is detached from the first side wall 2206 by removing the first bolts B1 using a tool such as a hexagonal wrench, the cap 3010 is removed from the container 3002, the container 3002 is replenished with the disinfectant, and then the cap 3010 is attached to the container 3002 and the lower bracket 36A is attached to the first side wall 2206 with the first bolts B1.


That is, the pump-type bottle 30 is configured to be removable from the arrangement instrument 34 by detaching at least one of the lower support member 36 or the upper support member 38 from the wall portion by turning the second bolts B2 or the first bolts B1 with a tool.


According to the first embodiment described above, the pump-type bottle 30 that can discharge a disinfectant for hands and fingers is disposed via the arrangement instrument 34 at the first side wall 2206 of the aircraft lavatory unit 22, which is a wall portion provided in the cabin, at a height at which a passenger can push down the head portion 3016.


Thus, in disposing the pump-type bottle 30 that can discharge a disinfectant for hands and fingers, a wall portion in the cabin is used, thus a placement platform dedicated to the pump-type bottle 30 is unnecessary, and the pump-type bottle 30 can be disposed in the cabin without a space on the floor in the cabin.


In disposing the pump-type bottle 30, a placement platform dedicated to the pump-type bottle 30 is unnecessary, and the arrangement instrument 34 smaller and lighter than the placement platform is used. This is advantageous in reducing the weight of the structure for disposing the pump-type bottle 30 in the cabin and can dispose the pump-type bottle 30 in the cabin while reducing the weight.


Accordingly, the pump-type bottle 30 that can discharge a disinfectant for hands and fingers can be disposed in the aircraft cabin, which is advantageous in preventing the infections with the novel coronavirus in the cabin.


Since the arrangement instrument 34 is includes two members, i.e., the lower support member 36 (lower bracket 36A) and the upper support member 38 (upper bracket 38A) separated from the lower support member 36, the arrangement instrument 34 itself can be reduced in size and weight, and the pump-type bottle 30 can be disposed at the first side wall 2206 while reducing the weight of the arrangement instrument 34.


Further, since the arrangement instrument 34 includes the lower support member 36 (lower bracket 36A) that supports the lower portion of the pump-type bottle 30 while regulating the horizontal movement of the container 3002 and the upper support member 38 (upper bracket 38A) that regulates the upward movement of the pump-type bottle 30 at the upper portion of the pump-type bottle 30, the pump-type bottle 30 can be fixedly supported by the arrangement instrument 34 including the lower bracket 36A and the upper bracket 38A even when the aircraft runs into turbulence and the fuselage 10 violently shakes in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction, which is advantageous in preventing the pump-type bottle 30 from falling out of the arrangement instrument 34.


Furthermore, the pump-type bottle 30 can be removed from the arrangement instrument 34 by detaching at least one of the lower support member 36 or the upper support member 38 from the wall portion by a troublesome operation of turning the second bolts B2 or the first bolts B1 using a tool.


Accordingly, a passenger cannot easily remove the arrangement instrument 34, which is advantageous in preventing the pump-type bottle 30 from being taken out of the arrangement instrument 34 by a passenger.


In addition, the female thread members 42 are disposed inside the first side wall 2206, the first bolts B1 and the second bolts B2 for fixing the lower support member 36 (lower bracket 36A) and the upper support member 38 (upper bracket 38A) are engaged with the female thread members 42, and the location of the first side wall 2206 in which the female thread members 42 are disposed, that is, the first side wall 2206 at which the pump-type bottle 30 is disposed is reinforced by the reinforcement frame 40.


Thus, when a passenger staggers and lays his/her hand on or leans against the pump-type bottle 30 due to the aircraft running into air turbulence and thereby large force is applied to the lower bracket 36A and the upper bracket 38A, the lower bracket 36A and the upper bracket 38A can be fixedly held by the first side wall 2206 via the female thread members 42, which is advantageous in preventing detachment of the lower bracket 36A and the upper bracket 38A including the pump-type bottle 30 from the first side wall 2206.


In addition, the reinforcement frame 40 is provided inside the first side wall 2206, which is advantageous in disposing the pump-type bottle 30 at the aircraft lavatory unit 22 without impairing the appearance of the first side wall 2206 of the aircraft lavatory unit 22.


The lower bracket 36A consisting of the base plate portion 3602, the upper plate portion 3604, and the connecting plate portion 3608 has a substantially triangular frame shape in a side view as illustrated in FIG. 4B, in other words, has a closed cross-sectional shape, the shape itself has strength and rigidity, and the lower bracket 36A is provided with strength and rigidity so as to be unbreakable with force of 136 kg-force (kgf) in the vertical direction or force of 136 kg-force (kgf) in the horizontal direction.


Thus, it is advantageous in preventing the breakage of the lower bracket 36A due to the application of force of 136 kg-force (kgf) in the vertical direction or force of 136 kg-force (kgf) in the horizontal direction when a passenger staggers and lays his/her hand on or leans against the pump-type bottle 30 in the case where the aircraft runs into air turbulence and the fuselage violently shakes in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction.


In addition, with the base plate portion 3602 attached to the first side wall 2206, all of the base plate portion 3602, the upper plate portion 3604, and the connecting plate portion 3608 extend in the horizontal direction, in other words, extend in the same direction. Thus, the lower bracket 36A can be easily manufactured by extrusion molding, which is advantageous in reducing the cost of the lower bracket 36A.


Next, a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 6.

Thus, the same effects as the first embodiment are exhibited, which is advantageous in preventing the infections with the novel coronavirus in the aircraft cabin.


Next, a sixth embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 12 and 13.


The sixth embodiment has a different configuration from that of the upper bracket 38A of the first embodiment and the other configurations similar to that of the first embodiment.


Similar to the first embodiment, an upper bracket 38B of the sixth embodiment is made of an alloy or a fiber reinforced plastic and is preferably made of an aluminum alloy in view of strength, lightness, processability, and design. In the present embodiment, the upper bracket 38B is made of an aluminum alloy.


The upper bracket 38B includes a mounting plate portion 3810 and a clamping portion 3820, and has a simpler configuration, a smaller size, and a lighter weight than the lower support member 36 and is advantageous in reducing the weight and cost of the upper support member 38, that is, reducing the weight and cost of the arrangement instrument 34.


The mounting plate portion 3810 has an elongated rectangular shape and includes two sixth bolt insertion holes H6 in the mounting plate portion 3810.


As illustrated in FIG. 13, the mounting plate portion 3810 is placed on a location of the first side wall 2206 separated upward from the lower bracket 36A and is attached to the first side wall 2206 by using sixth bolts B6 (hexagonal socket bolts) which are male thread members inserted into the sixth bolt insertion holes H6.


Similar to the first embodiment, the male threads of the sixth bolts B6 are engaged with the female threads 4202 of the female thread members 42 embedded in the locations of the first side wall 2206 reinforced by the reinforcement frame 40.


A pair of arm portions 3812 are disposed protruding from the center in the length direction of the mounting plate portion 3810, and the clamping portions 3820 are provided at tip portions of the arm portions 3812.


The clamping portion 3820 includes two clamping pieces 3822 having an arcuate shape facing each other.


In the present embodiment, base portions of the two clamping pieces 3822 are connected.


The two clamping pieces 3822 are configured to be able to clamp the cap 3010 at the upper portion of the pump-type bottle 30.


Thus, by pushing the cap 3010 into between the two clamping pieces 3822, the cap 3010 is clamped by the two clamping pieces 3822, and the horizontal movement and the upward movement of the cap 3010 are regulated by the two clamping pieces 3822.


For example, when the pump-type bottle 30 is replenished with the disinfectant, the upper bracket 38B is removed from the first side wall 2206 by removing the two sixth bolts B6 from the female thread members 42 of the first side wall 2206 by using a tool.


Accordingly, the lower portion of the pump-type bottle 30 is supported from below and the horizontal movement thereof is regulated by the lower bracket 36A, and the upward movement of the pump-type bottle 30 is regulated by the upper bracket 38B. Thus, also in the sixth embodiment, the same effects as the first embodiment are exhibited, which is advantageous in preventing the infections with the novel coronavirus in the aircraft cabin.


Next, a seventh embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 14 and 15.


The seventh embodiment has a different configuration of the upper support member 38 of the arrangement instrument 34 from that of the first embodiment in the configuration and the other configurations similar to that of the first embodiment.


In the seventh embodiment, the upper support member 38 includes a band 38C having an elongated shape that is made of an elastic material and has flexibility. The upper support member 38 has a simpler configuration, a smaller size, and a lighter weight than the lower support member 36 and is advantageous in reducing the weight and cost thereof, that is, reducing the weight and cost of the arrangement instrument 34.


The band 38C is embedded with a mesh or cord made of a metal so that the band 38C is not easily cut and that a passenger cannot easily take the pump-type bottle 30 out of the arrangement instrument 34.


Seventh bolt insertion holes H7 are provided at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the band 38C, and the band 38C is attached to a location of the first side wall 2206 separated upward from the lower bracket 36A by using seventh bolts B7 (hexagonal socket bolts) which are male thread members inserted into the seventh bolt insertion holes H7 as illustrated in FIG. 15.


Similar to the first embodiment, the male threads of the seventh bolts B7 are engaged with the female threads 4202 of the female thread members 42 embedded in the locations of the first side wall 2206 reinforced by the reinforcement frame 40.


An intermediate portion of the band 38C in the longitudinal direction comes in elastic contact with the cap 3010 at the upper portion of the pump-type bottle 30 to bias the cap 3010 toward the first side wall 2206 and regulates the horizontal movement and the upward movement of the upper portion of the pump-type bottle 30.


Accordingly, the lower portion of the pump-type bottle 30 is supported from below and the horizontal movement thereof is regulated by the lower bracket 36A, and the upward movement of the pump-type bottle 30 is regulated by the band 38C.


In the case of replenishment of a disinfectant or the like, the pump-type bottle 30 is removed from the arrangement instrument 34 by removing the seventh bolt B7 located at one end of the band 38C in the longitudinal direction from the first side wall 2206. This requires a troublesome operation of turning the seventh bolt B7 by using a tool such as a hexagonal wrench, which is advantageous in preventing the pump-type bottle 30 from being taken out from the arrangement instrument 34 by a passenger.


Accordingly, the lower portion of the pump-type bottle 30 is supported from below the horizontal movement thereof is regulated by the lower bracket 36A, and the upward movement of the pump-type bottle 30 is regulated by the band 38C. Thus, also in the seventh embodiment, the same effects as the first embodiment are exhibited, which is advantageous in preventing the infections with the novel coronavirus in the aircraft cabin.


The configurations of the upper support member 38 of the sixth and the seventh embodiments can also be applied to the first to the fifth embodiments as a matter of course.


The first to the seventh embodiments have described cases in which the pump-type bottle 30 that can discharge a disinfectant for hands and fingers is disposed at a wall portion constituting the structural frame 22A of each of the two aircraft lavatory units 22. However, as illustrated in FIG. 16, a pump-type bottle 30A may be disposed at the plurality of dividing walls 1010 facing the latitudinal aisle 20 behind the cockpit 1002 via the arrangement instrument 34, a pump-type bottle 30B may be disposed at the partition wall 1012 that partitions between the first class and the economy class via the arrangement instrument 34, and a pump-type bottle 30C may be disposed at the partition wall 1014 of the plurality of galleys 26 via the arrangement instrument 34. As a matter of course, the present technology is applied to wall portions provided in the aircraft cabin other than the wall portions of the aircraft lavatory units 22. The larger the number of locations at which the pump-type bottle 30 is disposed in the aircraft cabin is, the more easily disinfection of hands and fingers can be performed, which is advantageous in preventing the infections with the novel coronavirus in the cabin.
