A disinfecting system and method for an enclosed space include an articulating arm moveably coupled to a structure within the enclosed space. An ultraviolet (UV) lamp is coupled to the articulating arm. The UV lamp is configured to emit UV light toward a disinfection zone within the enclosed space. The articulating arm allows the UV lamp to move relative to the disinfection zone.

A floor fixing assembly for releasable fixing of a leg of a frame to a vehicle floor comprises at least one retaining peg which can be fixed to the vehicle floor. The floor fixing assembly furthermore comprises a frame fixing element, which is configured to be connected to the leg of the frame and comprises at least one receiving space for receiving the retaining peg. A clamping device is configured to be introduced into the receiving space of the frame fixing element in order to connect the frame fixing element to the retaining peg by form fit.

A ventilated seat assembly with active air circulation including a structural frame element, a cushion assembly supported by the structural frame element, a perforated dress cover, a conduit network embedded in the cushion assembly configured to direct air to at least one target region of the cushion assembly, an air mover coupled in fluid communication with the conduit network, and a controller operable for activating the air mover to cause air to flow through the conduit network to the at least one target region. In operation, the controller activates the air mover to flow air, such as unconditioned air, through the conduit network to be released through the dress cover in the at least one target region.

Technology is described for processing requested items on an aircraft. A server onboard the aircraft may identify a zoning definition for the aircraft that divides aircraft seating into a plurality of service zones. The server may receive a request for an item from a client device onboard the aircraft. The request may include a delivery location within one of the service zones of the aircraft. The server may assign the request to a crew member identifier (ID) based in part on the delivery location and the zoning definition for the aircraft. The server may transmit the request to a fulfillment computing device associated with the crew member ID.

The present invention provides an aircraft passenger accommodation unit comprising a seat, a shell that allows a passenger egress between an aisle and the seat through an opening, and a door assembly comprising a door slidable with respect to the shell between a retracted position and an extended position, a slide track attached to the shell, a slide runner for sliding along the slide track, and a connection mechanism for selectively connecting the door to the slide runner, wherein the door has a first sliding mode in which the connection mechanism connects the door to the slide runner and wherein the slide runner slides along the slide track, and a second sliding mode in which the connection mechanism does not connect the door to the slide runner and wherein the door slides in relation to the slide track. The invention also provides a door arrangement and associated methods.

An aircraft seat module comprises an enclosure unit which delimits a flight passenger seating region at least partially, and comprises a door unit which is at least configured to close a passage region to the flight passenger seating region in at least one operation state, and further comprises a bearing device which is configured to support the door unit movably relative to the enclosure unit and has for this purpose a bearing module comprising a first bearing element and a second bearing element which are supported such that they are movable relative to each other.

The invention relates mainly to a closure device, notably for closing a passage formed in a cabin of an aircraft, comprising: a support means that is able to slide along a slideway in a sliding direction, a closing wall that is able to close off the passage, and a locking system that is able to take up a locked state, in which the locking system ensures a mechanical connection between the closing wall and the support means, such that the closing wall is movable with the support means in the sliding direction, characterized in that, notably in the case of a malfunction, the locking system is able to pass into an unlocked state, in which the closing wall is disconnected from the support means, such that the closing wall is movable on its own in the sliding direction.

An aircraft passenger seat is proposed, comprising a structural component, on which a tray table of the aircraft passenger seat is held via a hinge assembly, the tray table being pivotable about a pivot axis of the hinge assembly. According to the invention, a connection assembly for detachably fitting the tray table on the structural component is provided, the connection assembly comprising an adjustment mechanism for adjusting a mounting position for the tray table relative to the structural component, the adjustment mechanism being designed such that the mounting position can be selected from a plurality of different mounting positions for the tray table relative to the structural component.

An aircraft passenger seat including a support framework designed to be fastened to a floor in an aircraft passenger cabin. The support framework has a seat divider and cross rails running transversely to the seating direction, and the support framework is held by the cross rails, a housing including a structural component, and the housing at least partly surrounds a backrest. The structural component is provided on the seat divider, and includes a compound sheet component having one or more cover sheets, with a connecting structure provided between a plurality of cover sheets, more particularly between two cover sheets. The connecting structure creates gaps between the cover plates, and the volume of the gaps makes up at least 50% of the volume between the cover sheets of the compound sheet component.
