Preferred embodiments relate to an amenity monument installed in the middle of a cabin space that absorbs “dead-space” in a seating layout while simultaneously providing features and amenities that are desirable to passengers. In preferred embodiments, this may substantially enhance the array of seating options and configurations available to an aircraft interior designer. In certain embodiments, the amenity monument may be equipped with dimmable panels that are set to a transparent condition during taxi, take-off and landing. During flight, the dimmable panels may be set to a translucent or opaque condition that provides privacy for the passenger utilizing the amenity monument as well as passengers seated nearby. In some embodiments, the monuments may provide enhanced amenities like curved, surround-view screens and which display gaming, advertising, multimedia and/or retail content.

In a preferred embodiment, a contoured class divider for dividing an aircraft cabin includes a panel positioned between an aft seat and a forward seat, the panel having an aft-facing convex contour closely matching an aft-facing contour of a seatback of the forward seat and configured to enhance space utilization. The contoured class divider may include an articulation system to articulate at least a portion of the panel from a first position (normal operation) to a second position (emergency landing). The contoured class divider may provide up to an additional 12 inches of space which can be used to reduce seat pitch (and thereby enhance passenger comfort) or increase the number of rows of seats on a given aircraft.

The present disclosure describes a bulkhead assembly for an aircraft interior comprising a pocket door mechanism (48) for supporting and guiding the movement of a pocket door; and a structural member (50) to which the pocket door mechanism is attached. The structural member is attached to a structure of the aircraft and provides support for the pocket door relative to the aircraft structure independently of any decorative member (32, 34) covering the structural member.

A aircraft cabin partition element and aircraft cabin arrangement, with a wall member having a lower edge and extending upwards from the lower edge provided with a coupling, capable of slidingly engaging a guide rail arrangement, an upper panel member pivotably mounted on the wall member with respect to a horizontal axis which is spaced from the lower edge, the upper panel member pivotable between a first position where the upper panel member extends from the horizontal axis towards the lower edge parallel to the wall member, and a second position where the upper panel member extends away from the wall member, and a support member movably mounted on the wall member and movable between a support position supporting the upper panel member when in the second position to prevent pivoting towards the wall member to the first position, and a storage position extending parallel to the wall member.

A vehicle projection system that includes a projector positioned adjacent a first portion of a ceiling of the vehicle, the projector being configured to project a first image on the first portion of the ceiling. The image may be a moving image or may be various natural sky scenes such as a starry sky. The projector may be a pico-projector or a micro-projector. The vehicle may be an aircraft with the projector positioned on an overhead portion of the cabin. The projector may be positioned between two overhead bins. A second projector positioned on an overhead portion of the cabin may be configured to project a second image on a second portion of the ceiling. The projectors may be positioned on curtain headers within the aircraft. The system may include a control panel that controls the operation of the projectors in conjunction with an onboard sound system, if any.

An arrangement in the cabin of a vehicle includes a floor, a first equipment component, a second equipment component and a partitioning device. The partitioning device is set up to provide a wall surface between the first equipment component and second equipment component largely perpendicular to the floor. The partitioning device is positionable in at least two positions along a length running between the first equipment component and second equipment component. The partitioning device is lockable in its respective position on at least one of the floor, a cabin ceiling and a cabin lining.

A flight attendant seat comprises a carrier device having a first surface, a seat element movably coupled to the carrier device, and a backrest element movably coupled to the carrier device and operatively coupled to the seat element. The seat is movable between an operative position, permitting the use of the seat by a flight attendant, and an inoperative position in which the seat element and the backrest element are positioned, relative to the carrier device, such that they do not protrude from the carrier device first surface. The seat may be positioned in such a way, relative to a passenger seat or a row of passenger seats, that the rear side of the backrest element faces towards the rear side of a backrest of the passenger seat or the rear side of a backrest of at least one passenger seat belonging to the row of passenger seats.

A monument is configured to be positioned within an internal cabin of a vehicle. The monument includes a deployable portion. The deployable portion is configured to move from a non-deployed state into a deployed state when a force that meets or exceeds a predetermined threshold is exerted into the monument wall assembly.

A wall module for a cabin of a vehicle for separation of different cabin regions comprises a lower wall section having at least one first fastening means for fastening the wall module to at least one near-floor structurally fixed component in the cabin, a surface-like rigid upper wall section converging with the lower wall section having at least one second fastening means in a region of the wall module facing away from the lower wall section for fastening the wall module to at least one near-ceiling structurally fixed component in the cabin. The upper wall section at least in a region comprises an arched curvature around a horizontal axis for adapting to the shape of a backrest of a seat. The wall module comprises at least one edge stiffening element, which extends between a near-floor region and a near-ceiling region of the wall module.

A lavatory monument assembly that includes an enclosure having front and rear walls and that defines an enclosure interior. A divider wall that extends between the front and rear walls, and a divider door that is movable between closed and opened positions. In the closed position the divider door divides the enclosure interior into first and second lavatory interiors. The divider wall includes first and second sections and the divider door includes first and second portions that meet at an obtuse angle. The divider door is pivotably attached to the divider wall. The front wall includes first and second lavatory doors that are both movable between closed and opened positions and provide access to the first and second lavatory interiors. A first toilet is positioned adjacent the rear wall in the first lavatory interior and a second toilet is positioned adjacent the rear wall in the second lavatory interior.
