The invention comprises a structure having at least two separate air chambers () enclosed by flexible, flat material () and having flexible bars () in the interior thereof for stabilizing an external shape of the air chambers (). The structure is characterized in that the air chambers () form a wall structure () in the inflated state. By means of such a wall structure ()&#x2014;preferably in conjunction with a corresponding ceiling structure ()&#x2014;lightweight berths (), particularly for aircraft crew, flight passengers, or transported injured persons, can be set up quickly and simply.

Structure having an air chamber

A pneumatic actuator having a flexible plate, the flexible plate being made of a rigid flexible material. The pneumatic actuator further includes at least two elongate, flexible but poorly extensible pneumatic pressure ducts that are disposed side by side and are in parts connected to the flexible plate to which they are secured and on which they are arranged in such a manner that, when the pressure ducts are pressurized with compressed gas, tangential forces are generated parallel to the flexible plate causing said flexible plate to bend.
