AIRCRAFT DOOR WITH RETRACTION OF THE MEANS FOR RETAINING THE DEPLOYABLE EVACUATION DEVICE
An aircraft door including a retaining device for a deployable evacuation device (6), the retain9ng device having at least: a beam (8); a first retention member (10) fixed on a second end (11) of the beam (8) by a detachable clip (16, 17), the first retention member (10) being connected to the deployable evacuation device (6); a second retention member (12), which can be coupled to the first retention member (10), mounted on the door frame (3); retraction devices (22, 23, 25) that can move between: an activated position, in which the second retention member (12) is on the trajectory of the first retention member (10), and a deactivated position, in which the second retention member (12) is outside the trajectory of the first retention member (10).
AIRCRAFT CABIN SECTION AND AIRCRAFT HAVING AN AIRCRAFT CABIN SECTION
An aircraft cabin section with an aircraft door, a cabin floor, and at least one lining mounted to the aircraft door. The aircraft cabin section further comprises at least one seal that is mounted to the at least one lining and seals a space between the at least one lining and the cabin floor. This prevents a cold air draft from entering the aircraft cabin.
Custom aircraft door mounting system
Aspects of this disclosure relate to a custom aircraft door mounting system that employs a vertical rolling motion enabled assembly, comprising: a first fitting configured to be mounted to an overhead structure of an aircraft, the first fitting including a cam follower slot formed within the first fitting; an elastomeric bearing pivotally coupled to a second fitting; and a cam follower coupled to the elastomeric bearing, the cam follower being configured to slide vertically within the cam follower slot to accommodate relative motion between the second fitting and the overhead structure of the aircraft.
DOOR UNIT FOR A VEHICLE
A door unit for an aircraft includes a door which is configured, in a closed position, to cover an opening in the vehicle and to delimit a vehicle interior from a vehicle environment; a pressure compensation flap which is configured, in a sealing position, to cover a pressure compensation opening in the door and, in a pressure compensation position, to at least partially release the pressure compensation opening; a locking element which is configured, in a locking state, to lock the door in the closed position and, in an unlocking state, to unlock the door; and a blocking element which is configured, in the sealing position of the pressure compensation flap, to block a movement of the locking element from the locking state into the unlocking state, wherein the blocking element is arranged on the pressure compensation flap.
SECURING MECHANISM FOR SECURING A VEHICLE DOOR
A securing mechanism for a vehicle door. The securing mechanism includes: a locking system which includes a locking element configured, in a locking position of the locking element, to lock the vehicle door in a closed position and, in an unlocking position of the locking element, to unlock the vehicle door; a securing element configured, in a securing position, to block a locking element movement from the locking position into the unlocking position in a first direction and, in a release position, to release the movement of the locking element from the locking position into the unlocking position in the first direction; and an actuator configured to move the securing element from the release position into the securing position and/or from the securing position into the release position. The securing element is configured, in the securing position, to release a movement of the locking element in a second direction.
Emergency exit door for an aircraft cabin, with opening assist mechanism
An emergency exit door (2) for an aircraft cabin, the door includes an opening-assist mechanism and an opening/closing device having a control lever (7), which can selectively be actuated to either unlock the door (2) and permit the action of the door (2) opening assist mechanism or to lock the door (2). The control lever (7) includes an adaptation mechanism (10) for adjusting the lever arm, the adaptation mechanism (10) being moveable between at least two positions: an opening-action position and a closing-action position, the lever arm (LO) of the control lever (7) in the opening-action position being shorter than the lever arm (LF1, LF2) of the control lever (7) in the closing-action position.
Cabin door system for an aircraft and an aircraft having at least one such cabin door system
An aircraft cabin door system has a cabin door having an outer side and an inner side, a drive device coupled to the cabin door for moving the cabin door into an open position, a first actuation device, a second actuation device, and an emergency chute unit coupled to the cabin door and having an emergency chute and an actuation mechanism. The emergency chute unit can be moved into an active state, in which opening the cabin door leads to activation of the emergency chute, and an inactive state, in which opening the cabin door does not lead to activation of the emergency chute. The emergency chute unit is in the inactive state when the cabin door is opened after actuation of the first actuation device. The emergency chute unit is in the active state when the cabin door is opened after actuation of the second actuation device.
AIRCRAFT DOOR WITH DEVICE FOR HOLDING THE HANDLING ARMS
An aircraft door having: a first handling arm and a first forearm; a second handling arm and a second forearm; a holding device movable between: an immobilising position in which the first forearm and the second forearm are immobilised relative to the door panel; and a released position in which the first forearm and the second forearm are free to pivot relative to the door panel in at least one direction of rotation.
AIRCRAFT PROPULSION SYSTEM
An aircraft having a fuselage with one or more wings coupled to the fuselage. A pair of booms are attached to the one or more wings. Each boom has a front end coupled with a front propulsion system and a rear end coupled with a rear propulsion system. Each front propulsion system includes a front motor coupled with a foldable front propeller in a tractor configuration. Each rear propulsion system includes a rear motor coupled with a foldable rear propeller in a pusher configuration.
Method and system for arming/disarming an aircraft door slide and implementation assembly
An assembly for arming/disarming a slide of an airplane door according to the invention comprises a system with two releasable connection mechanisms (2) linked with the door (1) and a cabin floor of the airplane, each mechanism (2) comprising a releasable connector (21b) secured to the door (1), extending at right angles to the floor on each side of a door bottom, and an anchor fitting (22b) fixed to the cabin floor. Each connector (21b) is equipped with an elastic centering element (70) and a locking/unlocking grab (25b) on the corresponding anchor fitting (22b), the connectors (21b) being linked by a girt bar (5). Each grab (25b) being rotationally mobile, one of the grabs (25b) is driven by a single command (5; 25b) which drives the other grab in rotation via the girt bar (5).
