An equipping system is provided for equipping an aircraft galley. The equipping system includes a box, which is accommodatable in the aircraft galley to be equipped, as well as a transport cart for equipping the aircraft galley. The system includes a base element, which has a bottom surface and a loading surface opposite of the bottom surface, a plurality of wheels fastened to the bottom surface of the base element, a handle attached to the base element, and a securing mechanism adapted to prevent the box from sliding off the transport cart while it is being transported on the transport cart. The handle is shaped and attached in such a position to the base element that the base element of the transport cart, in the unloaded state of the transport cart, is stackable onto a base element of a further transport cart. |

1. An equipping system for equipping an aircraft galley comprising:
a box, which is accommodatable in the aircraft galley to be equipped, and a transport cart for equipping the aircraft galley, the transport cart comprising
a base element having a substantially plate-shaped configuration defining
a bottom surface,a loading surface opposite of the bottom surface,a first lateral surface extending along a first side of the base element, the first lateral surface defining a first protrusion extending upwardly away from an upper portion thereof and a first recess on a lower portion thereof positioned beneath the first protrusion, anda second lateral surface extending along a second side of the base element opposite the first side, the second lateral surface defining a second protrusion extending upwardly away from an upper portion thereof and a second recess on a lower portion thereof positioned beneath the second protrusion,a plurality of wheels fastened to and extending downwardly from the bottom surface of the base element, anda handle comprising
a first strut secured to the first lateral surface,a second strut secured to the second lateral surface, each of the first and second struts secured to the first and second lateral surfaces at respective end portions thereof, each of the first and second struts extending upwardly toward a rear of the transport cart from the respective lateral surface at an angle relative to the loading surface of the base element, anda connection element connecting the first and second struts, wherein the handle is of integral construction such that the first strut, the second strut and the connection element are not movable relative to each other, wherein the first and second struts are spaced laterally apart from the respective first and second lateral surfaces except at the respective end portions thereof, and wherein the handle is shaped and attached in such a position to the base element such that a second base element of an identical, second transport cart is stackable onto the loading surface of the base element of the transport cart arranged substantially parallel to the base element of the transport cart and disposed between the first and second struts of the transport cart, in the unloaded state of the transport cart, and wherein the first and second protrusions of the base element of the transport cart engage the first and second recesses respectively of the second base element of the second transport cart when the second base element is stacked onto the loading surface of the base element of the transport cart. |
