A plug mounting (50) is provided as a combination of a plug (10) and a mount (30), for the detachable mounting of an equipment part, such as an inner panel, to a supporting frame, such as an aircraft fuselage. The plug (10) has a mounting pin (12), which has an annular groove (25) on one end, which can be engaged with a slide (34) of the mount (30), which is under spring pretension. The mounting pin (12) can be connected to the foundation by a damping element. The mount (30) is fastened to the housing (32) on the equipment part. The mount (30) has an eccentric lever (42) for unlocking the plug (10) by displacing the slide (34) against the spring pretension. The arrangement is made so that only the mounting pin (12) of the plug (10) needs to be inserted into the opening of the housing of the mount (30). It is not important whether an opening in the slide (34), into which the mounting pin (12) is to be inserted, is precisely aligned therewith, because the slide (34) is pushed against the spring pretension by one end of the mounting pin (12), wherein the spring pretension subsequently ensures that the slide (34) is latched in the annular groove of the mounting pin.
A plug mounting for a detachable mounting of an equipment part, the plug mounting comprising a plug having a mounting pin, having at one end at least one recess, which can engage a mounting that is fastenable with a clip to an equipment part and at the other end an elastic, washer-shaped damper for damping oscillations and to mount the plug to a sub-frame arranged on the mounting pin between a mounting washer and an axially displaceable glide washer, the recess is an annular groove (25) with two radially embodied lateral groove walls (24, 26) and the clip is a spring pre-tensioned slide (34) supported in a housing (32) of the mount (30) such that during insertion of the mounting pin (12) into an opening (33) of the housing (32) through one end of the mounting pin (12), the clip is movable to a position displaced in reference to the opening (33) against a spring pre-tension and subsequently is movable to a second position in which it latches in the annular groove (25) of the mounting pin (12) by the spring pre-tension.
