A storage device for baggage for an aircraft cabin, comprising:
- a compartment having a lower face, an upper face, an open face allowing access to the compartment for depositing and removal of baggage, and a back located opposite to the open face of the compartment,
- wherein the lower face of the compartment is positioned on a side of the open face and includes a substantially planar portion,
- wherein the lower face of the compartment includes a ramp portion positioned closer to the back than to the open face and positioned between the planar portion and the back,
- wherein a highest point of the ramp portion is positioned above a highest point of the planar portion,
- wherein a groove, a concavity of which opens toward the upper face of the compartment, is implemented between a highest point of the ramp portion of the lower face and the back, such that the ramp portion does not contact the back, and
- wherein a lowest point of the groove is located above a surface of the planar portion of the lower face of the compartment when the compartment is in an open position.
