Systems and methods are provided by which a treatment fluid (e.g., a liquid corrosion inhibitor) may be applied onto the interior surfaces of an aircraft fuselage which employ an automated guided vehicle (AGV) comprising a carriage assembly and a robotic spray system carried by the carriage assembly supported by a support platform positioned laterally of an aircraft fuselage in alignment with the cabin door opening thereof. The AGV may thus be deployable through the cabin door opening of the fuselage to a deployed position within the interior of the fuselage so as to be moveable along a longitudinal axis of the fuselage to allow the robotic spray assembly to spray the treatment fluid onto interior surfaces of the fuselage. A sealing door assembly located rearwardly of the AGV which is moveable relative to a door opening in the fuselage may also be provided so as to sealingly close the door opening of the fuselage when the AGV is deployed within the interior of the fuselage.

Systems and methods for securing an emergency exit door on an armrest of a seat are provided. A system includes a latch connected to an armrest of a seat of a vehicle. The latch is moveable relative to the armrest between a stowed position and a deployed position. The latch is structured and arranged to engage an edge of a door that is associated with an exit of the vehicle to hold the door on the armrest.

An actuatable emergency exit door with a door actuating device that comprises at least two connection rods that are pivotally mountable to an associated structural frame that is adapted for accommodating the actuatable emergency exit door in closed state, the at least two connection rods being provided for enabling an opening movement of the actuatable emergency exit door with respect to the associated structural frame during opening, wherein at least one door-mounted goose neck-shaped structure is mountable to the associated structural frame for enabling an initial translational opening movement and subsequently a swiveling opening movement of the actuatable emergency exit door with respect to the associated structural frame during opening. The invention is further related to an aircraft or space craft with a pressurized cabin having such an actuatable emergency exit door.

An internal cabin of a vehicle includes a vehicle control area. A first door is coupled to the vehicle control area. The first door is moveable between a first open position and a first closed position. An aisle extends between the vehicle control area and a passenger seating area. A forward section of the aisle is disposed between a first monument and a second monument. A second door is disposed within the aisle between the first monument and the second monument. The second door is moveable between a second open position and a second closed position. A privacy vestibule is defined between the second door in the second closed position, the first monument, the second monument, and the vehicle control area.

Systems, apparatuses and methods provides for technology that moves a locking vent door from an opening position to a locking position, where in the opening position, the locking vent door opens a locking vent, and in the locking position, the locking vent door closes the locking vent. When the locking vent door is in the locking position, the technology prohibits movement of a handle from an engaged position to a disengaged position. When the locking vent door is in the opening position the technology moves the handle from the engaged position to the disengaged position, moves a lock from a locking position to an unlocking position, and moves a pressurization vent door from the pressurization position to the depressurization position based on the lock being moved from the locking position to the unlocking position.

A mechanism for locking an actuating handle of an aircraft door having laterally releasing stops and opens by circular translation, the door having a pivoting maneuvering arm coupled to a forearm articulated on the door and handle, in a plane parallel to the arm pivoting plane, between a closed position of the door and an end-of-travel position corresponding to partial opening thereof after releasing the stops, includes at least one peg borne by the handle and at least one guideway with a circular profile and borne by the arm face, the face arranged facing the peg and centered on the hinge, the peg and guideway being relatively positioned so, in the end-of-travel position of the handle corresponding to the end of the stops releasing and during the circular translation of the door until is fully open, the rotation of the handle is blocked by contacting the peg against the guideway.

An articulated hinge assembly for connecting a door to a fuselage of an aircraft includes an articulated hinge arm having a first hinge member pivotably coupled to a second hinge member at an elbow. A fuselage fitting is pivotably coupled to a fuselage bracket and a door fitting is pivotably coupled to a door bracket of the door. The articulated hinge arm is movable from a collapsed position to an expanded position to move the door from a door closed position to a door open position. The articulated hinge assembly includes a linkage assembly coupled to the articulated hinge arm, the fuselage fitting and the door fitting controlling movement of the first hinge member and the second hinge member relative to each other and relative to the fuselage fitting. The linkage assembly controls positioning of the door.

A cover plate, to cover part of a space between a door and a door surround, comprising at least one pressure element secured to at least part of the external face of the cover plate. The pressure element comprises two sheets, an external sheet and an internal sheet, these two sheets being superposed and fixed together. The internal and external sheets are respectively made from materials that have different thermal expansion properties causing at least a contraction of the internal sheet with respect to the external sheet, at least for a range of temperatures comprised between 20 C. and 50 C.
