INTEGRATED MOBILITY SYSTEM
An integrated mobility system includes at least one road module, at least one railway module adapted to contain a plurality of road modules therein, and a plurality of loading/unloading infrastructures arranged in a plurality of boarding and unboarding stations scattered over a territory to allow operations for boarding/unboarding the road modules from the railway module. The railway module can be a two-story high-speed railway module. The boarding/unboarding stations are equipped with the loading/unloading infrastructures arranged so that the operations for boarding/unboarding the road module with respect to the railway module are always possible regardless of the position occupied by the road module inside the railway module, and regardless of simultaneous boarding and unboarding of other road modules. The road module and the railway module are arranged to be automatically interconnected to each other in the condition in which the road module is received inside the railway module.
COMFORT VENTILATION FOR A SANITARY MODULE FOR A VEHICLE
A passenger transport vehicle, such as a rail vehicle, has at least one sanitary module and at least one fan for conveying waste air from the sanitary module. A control unit controls the volumetric flow of waste air from the sanitary module. The control unit is formed for at least two volumetric flows of waste air, which differ from one another and differ from zero. The volumetric flows are conveyed by the at least one fan, at least on the basis of a state of the sanitary module.
RAIL VEHICLE WITH FULLY INTEGRATED WHEELCHAIR ZONE
A rail vehicle for transporting passengers includes at least one wheelchair zone, at least one boarding door, at least one sanitary unit, and at least one galley. The sanitary unit and the galley are disposed between the boarding door and the wheelchair zone. An aisle or path, which is configured to be adequate for wheelchair use, leads from the boarding door to the wheelchair zone.
ACTUATION DEVICE FOR A PUBLIC TRANSPORT VEHICLE
An actuation device for a public transport vehicle to avoid transmission of bacteria during the actuation. The device can be actuated by a predefined contactless actuation gesture, the device having a sensor unit that measures without contact and an evaluation unit, which is connected to the sensor unit. The sensor unit can generate a sensor signal transmit the sensor signal to the evaluation unit when an object, in particular a finger or a hand of a person, performs, within a detection space of the sensor unit, a movement at a distance from the actuation device, the signal being dependent on the movement sequence of the movement. The evaluation unit can check whether the movement is a predefined contactless actuation gesture, by which the actuation device can be actuated. If the movement is such an actuation gesture, a control signal is generated for a device of the vehicle.
Toilet seat structure for aircraft lavatory unit
Provided is a toilet seat structure for an aircraft lavatory unit. A cushion block is formed of a single band-like body that has a band-like shape extending with a predetermined width along an entire circumference of a toilet seat in a circumferential direction. The band-like body has an elongated cross-sectional shape cut along with a plane orthogonal to the extension direction and includes: a flat upper surface; a flat lower surface; and inclined surfaces provided on both sides in the width direction. The band-like body has the upper surface that is attached to a lower surface of a body plate portion with an adhesive and inclined surfaces that form an obtuse angle with respect to the lower surface of the body plate portion.

HIGH-SPEED MASS TRANSPORT SYSTEM
A high-speed mass transport system having a monorail track disposed along a travel path and a monorail car with a driving unit suspended from the monorail track and a commuter car selectively attached to the driving unit. The high-speed mass transport system having also having an omnidirectional wheel transporter being adapted to selectively raise and lower to engage the commuter car, thus allowing the commuter car to detach from and reattach to the driving unit.
TOILET HAVING COMPRESSED AIR FLUSHING TECHNOLOGY AND WATER EXTRACTING FROM HUMIDIFIED AIR
A stand-alone toilet system is powered by photovoltaic cells to operate a dehumidifier from which water is extracted from the atmosphere by dehumidification and used for flushing; an electronic compressor is situated in the toilet tank to compress air which is used with water in the flush cycle; a motorized or hydraulic hinge is utilized to open and close a toilet cover automatically which can be locked in place by electromagnet means to create an airtight seal in the closed position; a heating element and a UV lamp are situated inside the “treatment facility” of the toilet system to evaporate liquid and sanitize waste content therein respectively.
Lavatory unit for vehicle
A lavatory unit for a vehicle is provided for washing feet. A toilet seat is put in the use position, a lid is put in the open position, the lid and a water drainage plate coupled by an engage/disengage mechanism are disengaged, and the water drainage plate is rotated to the placed position. With pressure on the water drainage plate, water is discharged from a faucet for a predetermined time by a water control unit, and the foot is washed on the water drainage plate. The water is drained to the inside of a toilet body through a discharge port. Once the foot is washed, the water on the upper surface of the water drainage plate is wiped, the water drainage plate is rotated from the placed position to the open position of the lid, or the lid is rotated to the closed position.
Cabin with rotatable cabin door for a vehicle
A cabin for a vehicle includes a cabin wall having an opening and a door for opening and closing the opening. The door is moved about a rotational point and includes a movable door leaf which has a concentric segment. The cabin wall additionally forms a door stop in the closing direction of the door. The door leaf further has a linear segment with a fixed end and a free end. The linear segment adjoins the concentric segment at the fixed end in the closing direction of the door, and the free end of the linear segment forms a closing edge in the closing direction of the door. The closing edge lies against the door stop when the door is closed. A vehicle including an interior having the cabin is also provided.
