MODULAR BAR
A modular bar made of bar modules includes a bar element and one or more seating elements pivotably attached to the bar element. The seating element(s) is moveable relative to the bar element between a stowed position and a seat position, the module configured to be arranged adjacent one or more other bar modules to form a bar.
Inductive power transmission in aircraft seats
Described are aircraft passenger seat assemblies with a passenger seat, a component with an outer surface attached the passenger seat. An inductive wireless power unit with a coil assembly is included with the aircraft passenger seat assembly, and the coil assembly is positioned within the component. A portion of the outer surface of the component covers the coil assembly. Wires connecting the coil assembly to a power supply are hidden from view within the aircraft passenger seat assembly.
Pilot and passenger seat
The present invention achieves technical advantages as a pilot and passenger seating. An aircraft employs a pilot seat, comprising a contoured structure having ergonomically formed and padded surfaces, with left and right arm supports that include an articulated control knob, movable in three rectangular axes and rotatable about a vertical axis to provide one or more aircraft steering functions for an aircraft, and a touch-sensitive control surface for controlling one or more power system components. A passenger seat, having a contoured structure, having ergonomically formed and padded surfaces, a headrest, a seat, a left support member, and a right support member are adapted to cradle a portion of a passenger's body to support the passenger during travel.
Terminal and communication method
A terminal (1050) includes a light receiver (151) that receives a light signal emitted by an apparatus (1000), the light signal including an identifier (SSID) of at least one base station (470); a receiver (153) that performs a reception process on the received light signal to output reception data; a data analyzer (155) that selects one base station based on the identifier of the at least one base station that is included in the reception data; and a radio device (453) that establishes a wireless connection with the selected base station (470) by using the identifier of the base station (470) and wirelessly communicates with the base station (470).
PASSENGER SEAT ARRANGEMENT
The present invention relates to an aircraft cabin having a longitudinal axis and comprising at least one aisle and an arrangement of seat units, a seat unit comprising, in particular, a seat provided with a base and a backrest as well as a foot area, the seat being movable between a sitting position and a lying position, the arrangement of seat units comprising: at least one rear group of two seat units, at least one front group of two seat units, each group of two seat units comprising a seat unit arranged on the side of the aisle and referred to as the “aisle-side seat unit” and a seat unit arranged on the side of a window and referred to as the “window-side seat unit”, each seat of a group of seat units having an axis forming a non-zero angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft cabin, such that the seats of each group are facing the aisle, a first passage for accessing the aisle associated with the window-side seat unit of the rear group extending between the foot area and the seat of the aisle-side seat unit of the rear group, and a second passage for accessing the aisle associated with the window-side seat unit of the rear group extending between the aisle-side seat unit of the front group and the foot area of the aisle-side seat unit of the rear group.
PASSENGER SEATING WITH FRONT ROW BULKHEAD INTEGRATION
A passenger seating installation for a vehicle comprises a front seat located adjacent a bulkhead and facing in a direction that is oblique to the direction of travel of the vehicle. The bulkhead includes a recess for receiving the head of a passenger in the front seat in the event of an accident. The recess is spaced apart from the front seat in the direction of travel and in a direction that is obliquely disposed with respect to the direction in which the seated passenger faces. The recess allows the front seat to be located closer to the bulkhead than would be the case in the absence of the recess, which can increase seat density in a seating area.
COVER OPENING AND CLOSING DEVICE
A cover opening and closing device is a cover opening and closing device for shielding an object, the cover opening and closing device including a cover attractable to or repellable by a magnet, a guide accommodating the cover, and a housing covering the guide. The cover is accommodated in a space between the guide and the housing. The guide allows the cover to be moved, by the magnet outside the space, between a first position where the cover shields the object and a second position where the cover does not shield the object.
Blended wing body aircraft with transparent panels
The present disclosure is directed to a blended wing body aircraft including a blended wing body, wherein the blended wing body is characterized by having no clear dividing line between wings and a main body along a leading edge of the aircraft; a cabin located within the main body and a transitional portion of the blended wing body; and a plurality of transparent panels in a ceiling of the cabin configured to transmit light from outside the blended wing body aircraft to inside the cabin.
AN AIRCRAFT PASSENGER SUITE
An aircraft passenger suite (100) is provided. The suite (100) comprises an aircraft seat (110) for use by a passenger. The suite (100) also comprises a controller for controlling a number of output states (240) of the suite, the controller comprising a logic condition receiver operable to receive a logic condition input (210). The suite (100) also comprises sensor equipment operable to provide a sensor input (220) to the controller, the sensor input (220) providing an indication of at least one attribute of a passenger of the suite (100). The sensor equipment comprises one or more of: an image sensor (151, 152) a pressure sensor (154) and a physiological sensor. The controller is configured to control at least one of the output states (240) of the suite based on both the logic condition input (210) and the sensor input (220).
Aircraft area having a textile display, aircraft passenger seat having a textile display, and aircraft including an aircraft area
An aircraft area having a textile display, aircraft passenger seat having a textile display, and aircraft including an aircraft area. An aircraft area includes an interior component, a textile display on the interior component and including at least one textile fiber capable of changing a color at at least one section of the textile fiber, and a controller operatively coupled to the textile display and configured to change color of the at least one section of the textile fiber, such that the textile display displays information. An aircraft passenger seat includes a back rest, seat pan, and textile display integrated into a seat cover covering the backrest and/or the seat pan. The textile display includes at least one textile fiber capable of changing a color at at least one section of the textile fiber. An aircraft may include one or more aircraft areas and/or one or more aircraft passenger seats.
