An up-lock apparatus for landing gear of an aircraft includes a hook member configured to receive an up-lock roller pin of the landing gear when the landing gear is retracted. An up-lock actuator is coupled to the hook member and is configured to maintain the hook member in a locked state responsive to a first movement of the up-lock roller pin against the hook member to thereby prevent deployment of the landing gear. The up-lock actuator is further configured to allow the hook member to move to a released state responsive to a second movement of the up-lock roller pin against the hook member to facilitate deployment of the landing gear.

A storage bin assembly includes a fixed bin portion, an articulating bin portion, and an articulation system. The fixed bin portion is configured to be mounted to an aircraft, and has a cavity configured for storage of luggage. The articulating bin portion is coupled to the fixed bin portion, and includes a shelf configured for supporting luggage. The articulation system movably couples the articulating bin portion to the fixed bin portion. The articulating bin portion is movable from a first position in which the articulating bin portion is proximate to the fixed bin portion to a second position at which the articulating bin portion is separated from the fixed bin portion and lower than the fixed bin portion.

Ergonomically improved overhead bin systems

An example system for determining space availability in an aircraft includes a plurality of laser sensors configured to be positioned in a baggage container at a first wall and a second wall, and the first wall and the second wall face each other. The plurality of laser sensors emit signals within the baggage container and detect reflected responses to generate outputs. The system also includes one or more processors in communication with the plurality of laser sensors for executing instructions stored in non-transitory computer readable media to perform functions including receiving the outputs from the plurality of laser sensors, mapping contents of the baggage container based on the outputs from the plurality of laser sensors, and based on said mapping, outputting data indicative of occupied space in the baggage container.

An inflatable pod system on an aircraft includes an inflatable pod including a nozzle to receive air for inflation of the inflatable pod, and a hose assembly including a first end having an adaptor fitting that is configured to press fit with an air duct nozzle of an air duct of the aircraft and a second end having an adaptor configured to couple to the nozzle. In an example, the hose assembly delivers bleed air from the air duct, as provided by an environmental control system (ECS) of the aircraft, to the inflatable pod to inflate the inflatable pod. In another example, an air duct assembly line couples the ECS with the inflatable pod, and a control system triggers inflation via the air duct assembly line based on receipt of an electronic inflation signal.

A windshield wiper assembly for a dual sweep angle and indexable wiper system is provided. The system includes a wiper motor and a wiper arm for sweeping a surface of a windshield coupled to a first eccentric, the first eccentric comprising a primary eccentric and an indexable eccentric plate, wherein the indexable eccentric plate determines an eccentric offset of the wiper arm coupled to the first eccentric. The system further includes an output wiper shaft coupled to the wiper arm, a second eccentric coupled to a cam shaft, and a link coupled to the first eccentric and the second eccentric, the link having a first effective link arm length between the first eccentric and the second eccentric for driving the first eccentric to operate the wiper arm when operated in a first direction.

A method of operating an uplocking system includes contacting with a latchable member a first surface of an opening of a hook biased in a first rotational direction relative to a body, rotating the hook in a second rotational direction with the contacting, moving the hook out of a first position relative to the body, rotating the hook in the first rotational direction after release of the contacting with the latchable member, moving the hook into a second position relative to the body, the first position and the second position being stable when the hook is biased in the first rotational direction without contact being made against the first surface, and retaining the latchable member with a second surface of the hook when the hook is in the second position.

Powerless self operated uplock systems and methods

Extendable armrest assembly for passenger chair structures, the armrest assembly including a primary armrest configured to pivotably couple to a passenger chair structure, and a secondary armrest disposed beneath, aligned with, and coupled to the primary armrest, where the secondary armrest can be moved from a first stowed position aligned with and beneath the primary armrest and a second extended position in which a portion of surface of the secondary armrest surface is exposed and accessible for use by a passenger seated in the passenger chair structure.

Dual sweep angle and indexable wiper system

Systems and methods for uplock systems are provided. An uplock system may comprise a body, a hook having an opening defining at least a first surface and a second surface, the hook being rotationally engaged with the body, a first biasing member configured to bias the hook in a first rotational direction relative to the body, and a cam in operable communication with the hook and the body such that the hook has at least a first stable position and a second stable position relative to the body when biased in the first rotational direction.
