CARGO DECK WITH A CARGO RESTRAINT FOR RESTRAINING AT LEAST ONE PIECE OF CARGO INSIDE A CARGO BAY OF AN AIRCRAFT AND METHOD FOR CONVERTING OR FITTING A CARGO DECK FOR RELEASING CARGO ITEMS
In order to be able to airdrop cargo items during a flight, use is made of cargo gates which secure the cargo items and release them at a given time. The present application describes an improved cargo gate. This cargo gate for holding at least one cargo item at a predetermined position within a cargo hold of an aircraft comprises: at least one retaining element (20); at least one fastening device (30, 30') having at least one articulation for articulatedly fastening the retaining element (20) to a cargo hold floor (3) such that the retaining element (20) can be pivoted from an operative position for holding the at least one cargo item (1, 1', 1'') into an inoperative position, wherein the retaining element can be traversed by the at least one cargo item in the inoperative position. According to the invention, the retaining element (20) is to be provided with a stop (40) which can be operatively connected to a pivotable locking lug (141) of a locking device (140) such that the locking lug (141) holds the retaining element (20) in the operative position thereof.
