A slim aircraft monument is installable in an aircraft cabin adjacent to an aisle and has an upper portion, a lower portion, and a middle portion between the upper and lower portions. The monument includes a storage compartment accessible from a first side and a door on an adjacent side, the door deployable into the adjacent aisle or cabin space to reveal folding interconnected panels also deployable into the cabin space. The interconnected panels unfold into a horizontal workspace and, beneath the workspace, a series of vertically stacked storage bays capable of accommodating storage drawers and a cart bay configured for temporary accommodation of a half-size galley cart.

An accent lighting system is configured to provide accented light onto a desired location. The accent lighting system includes an accent adapter assembly that is configured to securely couple to a light source. The accent adapter assembly includes an accenting plate that is configured to accent light that is emitted from the light source. A method of securing an accent lighting system within an internal cabin of a vehicle includes removing an existing light source from an aperture of a composite panel, securing an accent adapter assembly to the existing light source to form the accent lighting system, and securing the accent lighting system in the aperture of the composite panel.

An aircraft includes an aircraft cabin having a number of rows of seats, at least one aisle, and at least one exit. An emergency lighting system having a first and second lines on opposing sides of the aisle, each line comprising a non-continuous series of photoluminescent markers separated by at least a longitudinal distance in the direction of the respective line. An exit path identifier is arranged to guide passengers from the aisle to the exit. Each line comprises an alternating series of first and second markers. The first photoluminescent markers have a first length and the second markers have a second length, the first length either the same as or shorter than the second length. At least the second markers are located on or adjacent to a seat adjacent to the aisle and the first markers are arranged to block the non-exit paths.

Disclosed is a reproduction appliance for a passenger cabin of an aircraft, for reproducing visual contents in the passenger cabin with a lighting device having luminaires, a control unit and a control line, wherein the control unit contains an instruction set of light instructions for actuating the luminaires, contains a memory for the contents to be reproduced, an interface to the control line and a decoder for receiving the light instructions having an association rule for associating control instructions for the reproduction appliance with the light instructions. A reproduction structure for the passenger cabin for reproducing the contents contains the reproduction unit and the lighting device. Also disclosed is a method for operating the reproduction appliance involves the contents being stored in the memory in a storage period and the reproduction appliance being controlled by means of light instructions in an operating period.

An aircraft cabin equipment system is provided. The aircraft cabin equipment system comprises a light fitting for illuminating an aircraft cabin by emitting visible light. The light fitting is configured to broadcast a time signal by modulating an intensity of the emitted visible light. The aircraft cabin equipment system comprises an aircraft cabin device configured to detect visible light emitted by the light fitting and to determine the time signal from the detected visible light.

An aircraft passenger cabin light. The light has: an elongated shape having a longitudinal direction (L) comprises: a cabin wall illumination assembly, which extends along the longitudinal direction (L) of the aircraft passenger cabin light and which is configured for illuminating a portion of a wall of an aircraft passenger cabin; and a plurality of personal reading light units for providing personal reading light illumination to passengers. The plurality of personal reading light units are arranged in an array extending along the longitudinal direction (L) of the aircraft passenger cabin light Said array is arranged along the cabin wall illumination assembly.

A component (6) for a passenger cabin (2) of a passenger aircraft (4) contains a base body (8) with a surface (10), and a layer structure (12), which is applied to the surface (10) and contains at least two layers in the form of at least one active layer (14) and an adhesive layer (16) arranged between the active layer (14) and the surface (10), wherein the active layer (14) contains at least one surface section (18a-c) which is formed from an electrically controllable colour-changing film (20), wherein at least a part of the colour-changing film (20) forms a visible surface (22) for the intended purpose in the passenger cabin (2).

A luggage compartment, for use in a vehicle, having a housing with an inner volume defining a storage space of the luggage compartment and a flap which is attached to the housing with at least one fastening device. The fastening device has a first portion attached to the flap and a second portion, wherein the second portion of the fastening device is releasably coupled to the first portion of the fastening device and attached to an outer surface of a top wall of the housing. Also a cabin component assembly with the luggage compartment and a ceiling panel arranged adjacent to the top wall of the housing of the luggage compartment and an aircraft with the cabin component assembly.

A method for manufacturing a panel includes forming a path segment on a surface of a substrate from a photoluminescent material. The method further includes overlaying the path segment with an overlay material. The overlay material is configured to render the path segment substantially invisible under an ambient photopic condition and render the path segment visible under an ambient mesopic or scotopic condition.
