Cabin module having a sanitary unit

A cabin module for an aircraft, the cabin module comprising a sanitary unit,

• wherein the sanitary unit comprises a toilet cubicle with a toilet,
• wherein the toilet cubicle is formed by four side walls and the toilet is arranged on a first side wall,
• wherein a first access door is arranged in a second side wall extending transversely to the first side wall and adjoining the first side wall,
• wherein the toilet cubicle further comprises a surface configured to at least partially accommodate a wheelchair,
• wherein the cabin module is configured to be installed with the second side wall transversely to the direction of flight,
• wherein the first side wall is aligned with an external wall in the installed state,
• wherein a second access door is arranged in a third side wall extending transversely to the second side wall and adjoining the second side wall,
• wherein the toilet cubicle is configured to be connected directly to an aisle region by the second access door,
• wherein the second and the third side wall are connected at right angles by a connection region,
• wherein the cabin module has a connecting door adjoining the connection region and configured to separate from an aisle region a secondary access region situated in front of the second access door, outside the toilet cubicle, and
• wherein the first access door and the connecting door are configured to be locked from the cockpit when the toilet cubicle and the access region are unused, and the toilet cubicle is accessible from the cockpit via the access region and the second access door.

A method for creating a cabin module for an aircraft, wherein the method comprises:

• a) providing a sanitary unit with a toilet cubicle comprising a toilet;
• wherein the toilet cubicle is formed by four side walls;
• b) arranging the toilet on a first side wall;
• and
• c) arranging a first access door in a second side wall extending transversely to the first side wall and adjoining the first side wall,
• wherein the toilet cubical comprises a surface configured to at least partially accommodate a wheelchair,
• wherein the cabin module is configured to be installed with the second side wall transversely to a direction of flight;
• wherein the first side wall is aligned with an external wall in the installed state,
• the cabin module comprising a frame structure adjoining the toilet cubicle on a side opposite the first side wall,
• wherein the frame structure is connected to a primary structure of a fuselage structure,
• wherein the frame structure has at least two vertical structural elements forming a first frame side adjoining the second side wall and in which the connecting door is provided, and
• wherein at least the first access door and the connecting door are secured on the frame structure.
