Abstract: Arrangements for an aircraft passenger cabin including a seating area containing first and second passenger seats, a monument disposed at one end of the seating area, and at least one privacy divider deployable in a longitudinal direction of the seating area to divide at least a portion of the seating area for privacy. In some embodiments, the at least one privacy divider includes a first privacy divider adapted to deploy to divide the seating area forward of the first and second passenger seats and a second privacy divider deployable to the seating area between the first and second passenger seats.

Abstract: A multi-panel privacy screen assembly adapted to be deployed between laterally-adjacent passenger seats. The assembly includes an overhead beam having a plurality of tracks, a plurality of hanging panels, a plurality of coupling members suspending each of the plurality of hanging panels from the overhead beam, each coupling member coupled to one of the plurality of hanging panels, to one of a plurality of driven cables, and having rollers rollable along at least one of the plurality of tracks, and a drive mechanism including an intermittent gear assembly operable for driving the plurality of driven cables to move the plurality of hanging panels along at least one of the plurality of tracks according to predetermined deployment sequence.

Abstract: A braking table system for use in an aircraft cabin includes a rail mountable to a fixed structure in the aircraft cabin, the fixed structure adjacent a seat assembly, and, a table assembly mounted on and selectively movable along the rail. The table assembly includes a support deck engaged with the rail, a tabletop mounted on the support deck, and a braking mechanism carried by the support deck. The braking mechanism automatically engages the rail thereby preventing movement of the support deck relative to the seat assembly, and, upon user action moving the tabletop, the braking mechanism permits movement of the table assembly along the rail. The braking mechanism includes brake arms, each permitting movement of the table assembly in a respective direction, and, in the absence of user action moving the tabletop relative to the support deck, preventing opposite movement of the table assembly.

Abstract: A table assembly including a first arm attachable to a fixed structure, a second arm pivotally attached to the first arm, a third arm is pivotally attached to the second arm, and a table attached to the third arm. The second arm is configured to maintain the first arm and the third arm parallel as the first arm and the third arm pivot simultaneously relative to the second arm. The second arm includes a tension member configured to transfer tension along the second arm from the first arm to the third arm as the first arm and third arm pivot simultaneously relative to the second arm. The tension member may be further configured to transfer compression along the second arm from the third arm to the first arm as the first arm and third arm pivot simultaneously relative to the second arm.

Abstract: A system for identifying forgotten items is disclosed. In embodiments, the system includes one or more item detectors. The item detectors may be configured to determine a calibration value of a stowage area in a calibration mode, and further configured to determine a check value of the stowage area in a check mode. The system also includes a controller configured to receive the calibration value and the check value, calculate a difference value between the calibration value and the check value, and compare the difference value to a threshold value. If the difference value is greater than the threshold value, the controller is further configured to generate one or more found item signals which indicate the presence of a found forgotten item.

Abstract: A tool for more quickly and efficiently removing the liner bolts that hold sections of liners to the inside of an ore grinding mill shell. The tool has thick-walled tubular barrel with a front cap assembly and a rear valve assembly at opposing ends. A projectile is slidably disposed in the barrel chamber. The rear valve assembly connects to a supply of compressed air to deliver compressed air to the chamber and cause the projectile to move rapidly forward toward the front end cap assembly and contact an impactor, which is in contact with the liner bolt to be removed. The forward movement of the projectile causes the impactor to move forward and drive the bolt out of the shell and liner. The tool has little recoil effect and utilizes a safety absorber to reduce the likelihood of damage or injury from use of the tool.
