The Invention relates to a passenger cabin emergency oxygen device for an aircraft, comprising at least one electrically driven activation device for activating the emergency oxygen device, at least one energy storage device and a source of electrical energy. Said source of electrical energy and said energy storage device are coupled together for substantially constant energy transmission from the source of electrical energy to the energy storage device at a first energy level, an activation device and a controller are coupled together for signal transmission from the controller to the activation device, said activation device and said energy storage device are coupled together for energy transmission from the energy storage device to the activation device at a second energy level which is higher than the first energy level.

Passenger cabin emergency oxygen device

The invention relates to a passenger service unit for an aircraft, comprising at least one light source and at least one passenger air supply device. According to the invention the passenger air supply device is adapted for applying a flow of air to the light source. Furthermore it relates to a method for providing light and fresh air to passenger of an aircraft by providing an air flow from an air supply device and light from a light source to the passenger. The method comprises applying an air flow from said passenger air supply device to said light source for cooling the light source by means of convection. Furthermore the invention relates to a method for assembling a passenger service unit and to an aircraft.

Passenger light cooling

An arrangement of at least one personal service unit in a vehicle. At least one rail is arranged on the vehicle side. The rail includes at least one lead. The personal service unit includes at least one electricity collector which is arranged in a manner such that the electricity collector conductively contacts the at least one lead of the rail in the installed condition of the personal service unit in the vehicle.

Arrangement of at least one personal service unit in a vehicle

Embodiments of the present invention provide a mounting bracket for use in connection with a rail, for assembling cabin interior components into an aircraft.

Assembling device for cabin interior components

A method for equipping a personal service unit with passenger oxygen masks includes arranging one or more passenger oxygen masks in an intermediate container ready for use, and then attaching the intermediate container together with the masks located therein within the personal service unit. In this manner, the comparatively lengthy packaging procedure which is difficult to carry out in overhead work, may be effected in a simplified and reproducible manner outside the aircraft.

Method for equipping a personal service unit with passenger oxygen masks

A container and locking device for gas tightly locking a container for gas masks and breathing equipment containing moisture-sensitive filter mass, including a first container shell and a second container shell, each container shell having outwardly projecting circumferential edges at front surfaces, the first container shell and the second container shell abutting at the front surfaces. A strap surrounding the projecting circumferential edges to clamp the circumferential edges. A sealing member connecting the first container shell and the second container shell, the sealing member being inserted into grooves located at the front surfaces of the first container shell and the second container shell. A lock connected to the strap ends for holding the strap ends, the lock being pivotable for pivoting movement around at least one hinge located at one of the first container shell and the second container shell, the lock including a tumbler participating in the pivoting movement and a transmission member participating in the pivoting movement, the tumbler moving from a closed position engaging the strap ends to a release position for releasing the strap ends upon the pivoting movement, the transmission member acting on the first container shell and the second container shell to move the first container shell and the second container shell relative to increase a distance between the front surfaces.

A gas mask and breathing equipment air cleaning cartridge (1) with a carbon dioxide-binding chemical packing (4) and an insert (3). The insert has legs (6) arranged in a radiate pattern perpendicularly to the direction of flow. The legs (6) have a flexibility that compensates for differences in the filling ratios of the strands (5) of chemical and have an identical bent zigzag-shaped designs to provide good heat distribution in the circumferential direction and good resistance to vibrations and shocks.

A respirator with regeneration of the respired air by several chemical fillings, which emit oxygen and bind carbon dioxide and are disposed in parallel in the respiratory passage between a mouthpiece and a breather bag is to be improved, so that a uniform utilization of the chemicals in the fillings is achieved. The different resistances of the respiratory paths of the fillings are to be evened up so that the pollutant load on and the consumption of the fillings can be divided up evenly over the existing fillings during the whole of the period of use. For this purpose, provisions are made so that each filling is connected to its own breather bag for accommodating the exhaled air flowing through it.

Respirator with several regeneration cartridges and breather bags

A closed-cycle breathing equipment and gas mask for operation under pressure with a pressurized air source for respiratory air and with an air bag being under prestress during the inspiration phase includes an arrangement where the prestress is decreased by a control element recognizing the expiratory phase and so as to support respiration during the expiration phase. A pneumatic control valve is used which can switch connections between the inspiration and the expiration phase and which is directly controlled by the difference between the exhalation pressure and the pressure in the air bag. The control valve connects the pressurized air source with the air bag during the inspiration phase and during the expiration phase it interrupts the connection due to the occurring dynamic pressure of the pressurized air from the pressurized air source and thus actuates a pneumatic adjusting element so that the mechanical prestress at the air bag is reduced.

Closed-cycle breathing equipment

A respirator with regeneration of the respiratory air includes, for the cooling of the inhalation air, a chemical cartridge regenerating the respiratory air which has an area cooler located in the respiratory air stream, which cooler is arranged adjacent to and spaced from the surface of the chemical cartridge.
