Abstract: An aircraft comprising a space-optimized standing seat for cabin attendants in a passenger cabin is provided. The aircraft comprises a cabin attendant seat and a cabin with an aircraft exit. The cabin attendant seat comprises a seating area and a backrest and is arranged in the region of the aircraft exit. Therein, the cabin attendant seat is designed as a standing seat.

Abstract: A device for holding luggage in a passenger cabin of an aircraft is arranged above a seat row in a passenger cabin of an aircraft or a vehicle and fastened to a structure which is fixed to the aircraft. The luggage rack includes an outer housing which is fixed in position and into which a separate inner housing is fit in a positive-locking manner. The inner housing is arranged relative to the outer housing so that the inner housing can move between two end positions about a moving pivot point close to the center of gravity in a force-operated manner. In the closed end position, the luggage rack is visibly integrated into a cabin lining of the passenger cabin.

Abstract: A sanitary module arrangement configured for installation in an aircraft cabin includes a sanitary module, the interior of which is separated by a partition wall from an area of the aircraft cabin adjacent to the sanitary module. A sanitary appliance and a first trolley parking place to accommodate at least one trolley configured for holding supplies for the passengers in the aircraft cabin are provided in the interior of the sanitary module. A second trolley parking place for accommodating at least one trolley configured for holding supplies for the passengers in the aircraft cabin is provided adjacent to an outer face of the partition wall outside the sanitary module. A trolley fastening device comprises a holder system for detachably fastening a trolley parked at the second trolley parking place, wherein the holder system includes a holder attached to the outer face of the partition wall.

Abstract: A monument complex is provided for a rear area of a passenger cabin. The rear contour of the monument complex is adapted to the contour of the bulkhead so that an additional wash basin can be installed without there being any loss of space in the passenger cabin.

Abstract: A monument is provided for an aircraft. The monument includes, but is not limited to several system components with identical, substantially identical or similar functions that can be connected by way of a single system connection arrangement to the supply in the aircraft. Distribution of the supply media, received by the aircraft, to the individual system components takes place within the monument. The system connections can thus be identical to the system connections of a single monument.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for holding luggage in a passenger cabin of an aircraft, said device being arranged above a seat row in a passenger cabin of an aircraft or a vehicle and being fastened to a structure which is fixed to the aircraft. The luggage rack comprises an outer housing which is fixed in position and into which a separate inner housing is fit in a positive-locking manner. The inner housing is arranged relative to the outer housing so that said inner housing can move between two end positions about a moving pivot point close to the center of gravity in a force-operated manner. In the closed end position, the luggage rack is visibly integrated into a cabin lining of the passenger cabin.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for receiving baggage in a passenger cabin for aircraft, which device comprises a stowage compartment, also referred to as a “hatrack”, which stowage compartment is arranged above a seat row so as to be swivellable in longitudinal direction of the aircraft. The hatrack includes a single-part housing that forms a baggage receptacle. Starting from an open loading position, the housing is swivellable to a transport position or stowage position on a pivot axis that is arranged near the centre of gravity and that is associated with a bottom of the housing. For affixation of the hatrack the housing is connected to a structure of the aircraft fuselage, which structure is fixed to the aircraft, by means of an exterior frame.

Abstract: The invention relates to a movable fastening unit for a seat frame in an aircraft. In said fastening unit, a connecting element can be movably mounted on both a seat structure and a floor fixture by means of bearings, thus allowing the seat frame to be moved relative to the floor fixture without having to detach the fixture from the floor.

Abstract: Overhead stowage compartments are provided for an aircraft. The stowage compartments feature an opening device that can be displaced or rolled up. This may make it possible to prevent lights or air outlets from being covered by pivoting a door upward, as well as to preserve the headroom during the opening process and to prevent collisions between the doors. The architecture of the aircraft may be optimized in this fashion.

Abstract: An overhead bin for use on both sides in a passenger cabin of an aircraft, includes a first baggage compartment and a second baggage compartment, a first opening and a second opening for loading items into the first baggage compartment and into the second baggage compartment, and a partition for dividing the first baggage compartment from the second baggage compartment. The first baggage compartment and the second baggage compartment differ from each other in their shape and/or alignment. With several overhead bins, the alignment of a larger and a smaller baggage bin can alternate so that adequate bin space for stowing hand baggage is available to passengers in the center seats.

Abstract: An air vent, in particular for a vehicle, includes at least one adjustable vane (13) and a friction member (20), the friction member (20) being associated with the at least one adjustable vane (13) and the friction member (29) opposing friction to a movement of the vane (13).

Abstract: A first pseudo-halftone picture is converted to a second pseudo-halftone picture of reduced resolution in the ration m:n by dividing the first picture into contiguous picture fields each having i.multidot.n lines and j.multidot.n columns of picture elements in contiguous square subfields each having n.sup.2 picture elements. m.sup.2 elements are selected from each subfield in accordance with a selection sequence which depends on the position of the subfield in the picture field, the elements being selected from all i.multidot.n lines and all j.multidot.n columns of each picture field, the selection sequence being the same for each picture field.

Abstract: In practice it is often desirable to represent only a given, selectable dynamic range of a measuring signal, preferably in logarithmic form. This is achieved in accordance with the invention in that from the measured value in the form of a binary number only the positions corresponding to the desired dynamic range are selected for forming the base number, the weight of the most significant bits having the value "1" being converted into a binary number. The mantissa is derived from the following positions, i.e. independent of the selected dynamic range, so that even when the most significant bit is in the last position, a mantissa comprising the full number of positions is formed. The magnitude of the dynamic range is chosen by omitting the correspondingly more significant positions of the base number formed for the maximum range.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for producing a grey-tone image having areas of different average density values which are given by an n-digit binary number, all the bits of the binary number being interrogated in parallel by clock patterns. For the area to be printed an elemental area containing 2.sup.n pulses is selected which is printed in a total cycle of 2.sup.n .sup.- 1 clock pulses of the clock pattern. In this total cycle, at each clock pulse the drive of each pair of dots is determined in a manner such that the most-significant bit of the binary number is always used for driving while the remaining bits are used a number of times which depends upon their positional values. For this purpose, for each position of the binary number the clock pattern has a number of clock pulses which corresponds to the value of this position. The clock pulses for the individual positions are non-uniformly distributed in time, however, no clock pulses for the second and any further positions of the binary number coincide in time.
