An actuatable door for an aircraft passenger suite may include a flexible privacy divider configured to actuate between a stowed divider position and a deployed divider position, a cartridge configured to actuate between a stowed cartridge position and a deployed cartridge position via at least one intermediate cartridge position, and a mechanism housed within the cartridge and configured to actuate the flexible privacy divider between the stowed divider position and the deployed divider position, where the flexible privacy divider may be at least partially stowed within the cartridge when in the stowed divider position. The actuatable door may be configured to actuate between a stowed door position and a deployed door position via at least one intermediate door position, and configured to separate the aircraft passenger suite from an open area within an aircraft cabin when in the deployed door position and provide privacy to the aircraft passenger suite.

A panel (1000) for a cabin of an aircraft, the panel (1000) including a laminate (150) with a first layer formed of lithiated carbon fibers (100), a second layer form of carbon fibers with a cathode lithium coating (200), and an electrolyte-containing separator (300) interposed between the first and the second layers and a pressure sensor (50a, 50b) on an outer surface of the laminate (150), and a switch (40) to regulate a voltage to the laminate (150) based on an output of the pressure sensor (50a, 50b) so that the panel (1000) expands.

A flooring arrangement for an aircraft cabin and an aircraft with the flooring arrangement. The flooring arrangement at least one insulating layer for insulating the cabin; a wire mesh disposed above the at least one insulating layer; a carpet layer disposed above the wire mesh, the carpet layer and the wire mesh being in electrically conductive contact; and at least one resistive element connected to the wire mesh, the wire mesh being structured and arranged for being electrically connected to a conductive structure of the aircraft via the at least one resistive element. The resistive element allows transmission, from the wire mesh to the conductive structure, of electrostatic charges developed on the carpet layer, and impedes transmission, from the conductive structure to the wire mesh, of high current events experienced by the aircraft.

A tray (1) for releasably engaging a trolley, the tray (1) comprises a body (2) describing a sealed volume (V), the sealed volume (V) having a phase change material (PCM) received therein, the tray (1) comprising an engagement means (4) for releasably engaging a trolley.

A compactor trolley for aeronautical applications, more particularly a trolley, includes a flap for direct access to the waste storage compartment and a safety locking mechanism for the flap.

A method, medium and system for auto-aligning displays of a head/helmet mounted display. The method, medium and system may provide for an auto-alignment of components of a headband, headgear, or a helmet. The method, medium and system may provide for a first sensor mounted to the helmet of a user and configured to communicate and transfer align with a vehicle comprising an inertial navigation system (INS). The method, medium and system may provide for display comprising a second sensor configured to communicate with the first sensor and transfer align the second sensor with the first sensor based on the transfer alignment of the first sensor with the vehicle. The method, medium and system may provide for wherein the first sensor and the second sensor comprise an inertial measurement unit (IMU). Further, the method, medium and system may also provide for the aligning of two displays on the head/helmet relative to each other in real time.

An aircraft cabin section includes a door frame, which forms a door opening, a passenger door, which is arranged on the door frame and is configured to close the door opening, and a door insulation arrangement, which is larger in at least one direction than the door opening. The door insulation arrangement is produced from a textile which is heat-insulating and/or airflow-inhibiting. Furthermore, a corresponding door insulation arrangement and an aircraft having such an aircraft cabin section or such a door insulation arrangement are disclosed.

An aircraft includes a video display, first and second wireless pairing transmitters, and a media distribution processor. The video display is associated with an audio content stream and a seating location in the aircraft. The first wireless pairing transmitter is associated with the video display and has a first wireless coverage volume. The second wireless pairing transmitter has a second wireless coverage volume that overlaps the first wireless coverage volume. The media distribution processor is programmed and configured to: associate a wireless speaker device with the seating location; pair the first wireless pairing transmitter with the wireless speaker device in response to associating the wireless speaker device with the seating location; and direct the audio content stream through the first wireless pairing transmitter to the wireless speaker device in response to connecting the first wireless pairing transmitter with the wireless speaker device.
