Embedded ultraviolet disinfection of aircraft interiors
20210393818 · 2021-12-23 ·

Presentation of an improved method of applying an ultraviolet light for disinfecting of aircraft interiors between flights. This novel system involves applying said UV light from the UV LEDs permanently embedded in the passenger seats, and/or in the IFE monitors, and/or in the overhead bins and/or in the ceiling, all connected to a remote on-off switch, to provide electric power to disinfect the entire cabin at once.

This invention allows for a significantly increased amount of time as well as target optimization of the UV light focused onto cabin surfaces compared to a push-card system with UV lights, which slowly and unevenly disinfects the aircraft interior, only one row of seats at a time.

The subject invention results in more effective disinfection, safer interior for the next load of passengers, cost-savings by eliminating push-cart operators, and shortening aircraft on ground down time, due to total cabin being disinfected at once, increasing the number of possible daily flight cycles, resulting in increased overall revenue for aircraft operators.
