Patent attributes
A mounting system may be installed in an aircraft, such as by installing a first plate and a second plate on either side of a sandwich panel wall in a personal space of an aircraft. The first plate and second plate may be coupled together, and a structural interface may receive a mounting accessory such that it is positioned adjacent the first plate. A personal electronic device may be mounted to the mounting accessory, thereby facilitating use of the personal electronic device on-board the aircraft. Such a mounting system may facilitate the use of personal electronic devices in lieu of costly in-flight entertainment systems. The first plate and second plate may be secured to a honeycomb core sandwich panel, such that fasteners may extend through inserts extending through the core, thereby distributing the weight of the personal electronic device and mounting accessory via the first plate and second plate.
