An on-board toilet cubicle for an aircraft, including a front long side and a rear long side; a front short side and a rear short side, which are each connected at one end to the front long side and at their other end to the rear long side, the long sides and the short sides enclosing an interior of the on board toilet cubicle, and the front and the rear long sides each being wider than the front and the rear short sides; a toilet unit with a toilet opening; and an L-shaped door for accessing the on-board toilet cubicle, the L-shaped door having one door leg in the front long side and one door leg in the front short side, the toilet unit arranged adjacent to the rear long side, and the door leg in the front long side being wider than the door leg in the front short side.

A dual-occupancy aircraft minisuite incorporating a modular multiple-egress door assembly is disclosed. In embodiments, the dual-occupancy minisuite can accommodate two passengers in enhanced privacy. Access to (and egress from) the minisuite is through the modular multiple-egress door assembly, which provides forward and rear (relative to the egress gap between) sets of outer, intermediate, and inner doors. The outer doors translate laterally along rails in the intermediate doors, and the intermediate doors likewise translate laterally along rails in the inner doors, to open the minisuite for passenger access or direct view (or to close the minisuite for enhanced privacy). The forward and rear sets of doors are proportioned such that when any forward or rear translating door is jammed in a closed position, the remaining egress gap is of sufficient width to provide a distinct and independent emergency egress path for each occupying passenger of at least minimum required width.

An aircraft portion having a floor and a fuselage structure forming an arch above the floor is disclosed in which a monument is mounted within the fuselage. The monument is suspended from the fuselage structure by at least one suspension point, so that most of the weight of the monument is taken up by the fuselage structure. The monument includes a circular or a round section configured to take up the vertical forces than the horizontal floor, which bends under vertical loads.

An inflatable suspended ceiling for a vehicle compartment, in particular for a passenger cabin of an aircraft, includes a flat fabric cover sheet configured to roof over at least a longitudinal section of an interior space along an extending direction of the vehicle compartment underneath a structural ceiling of the vehicle compartment, and a tensioning structure attached to the cover sheet to carry the cover sheet from above and having a flexible envelope enclosing at least one inflatable chamber configured to tension the cover sheet when inflated. Mounting members are attached to the tensioning structure to mount the tensioning structure to counter-mounting members on the structural ceiling in a hanged configuration.

An aircraft interior structure for an aircraft cabin may include a main body with a plurality of walls, where at least one wall of the plurality of walls may be shared with an adjacent passenger suite including an aircraft seat. The passenger suite may be installed at an angle relative to an aisle of the aircraft cabin. The aircraft interior structure may include a cavity defined within the main body. The cavity may be a trapezoidal shape defined at least in part by the angle at which the passenger suite is installed in the aircraft cabin. The cavity may be configured to receive a plurality of galley carts. A length of each of the plurality of galley carts may be dependent on a depth of the cavity at respective locations in the trapezoidal shape.

A stowage and removal system for an accommodation space for storing rollable containers in a vehicle is provided. It preferably has a rail system in the floor region of the accommodation space, on which rail system a transfer plate is movable, which transfer plate can assume a storage position and an insertion and removal position for the container. The storage position of the container is provided with its rear wall in the region of the rear wall of the accommodation space. The insertion and removal position is provided in the region of an insertion opening, arranged oppositely in relation to the rear wall, for the insertion and removal of a container into the accommodation space.

A reinforcing element for a structural profile, in particular for a round, oval or elliptical structural tube. The reinforcing element comprises: a fiber structure which has a hollow-cylindrical, helically wound mesh of fiber strands and forms an inner shell surface formed to receive the structural profile; and a matrix material into which the fiber strands are respectively embedded and which is formed to be shrinkable by heating so that the fiber structure can be fastened to the structural profile with the inner shell surface by heating the matrix material. Also provided are a structural arrangement with such a reinforcing element, an aircraft or spacecraft with such a structural arrangement, as well as a method for producing such a structural arrangement.

Passenger seats having improved comfort emergency egress solutions for mini suites or other types of passenger seats that have a privacy screen, wall, or sliding door that divides the passenger seat from the aisle area or other common area. Specific embodiments find particular use on-board passenger transportation vehicles, such as aircraft, where comfort and privacy must be balanced with safety and federal regulations.

An aircraft cabin includes an upper deck, and a cargo area. The cargo area is configured to accommodate at least one passenger and is situated at a different level than the upper deck. An accessway provides access between the upper deck and the cargo area. The upper deck has, at least locally, a raised floor in the vicinity of the accessway so that at least one part of the cargo area has a ceiling height higher than the ceiling height of the rest of the area cargo.

A method for producing a panel with integrated conductor tracks and electronic components. The panel includes a panel body, wherein the panel body is in particular a sandwich structure, and a membrane. The membrane is connected to the panel body and has integrated conductor tracks and electronic components. At the beginning of the method, an operation for attaching the conductor tracks and the electronic components to the membrane is provided. The subsequent step includes an operation for connecting the membrane, fitted with the conductor tracks and the electronic components, to the panel body.
