Abstract: An aircraft passenger seat has at least one seat element characterized by at least one monitoring apparatus for monitoring the seat element. The seat arrangement has a plurality of seats, wherein at least one seat includes at least one sensor module for monitoring a seat element and a control unit for checking and controlling the monitoring, wherein the at least one sensor module is in a data exchange relationship with the control unit.

Abstract: A monitoring device for a repair patch that can be placed on or in a wall of an aircraft to repair a defect has a sensor device for detecting properties of the repair patch placed in the wall, an energy supply device for supplying energy at least to the sensor device, and a communication device so as to read out the sensor data. A repair kit that can be placed in or on a wall of an aircraft to repair defects comprises a repair patch for repairing a defect in or on a wall of an aircraft and also comprises a monitoring device. A method for monitoring a repair patch in or on a wall of an aircraft by means of a monitoring device comprises the steps of detecting a measurement phase on the basis of the amount of energy provided by the energy supply device, measuring load parameters in and/or on the repair patch during the measurement phase, and reading out the load parameters.

Abstract: A device for fastening a component to a fastening stud includes a holding member and a holding disk for contacting first and second surfaces of the component, respectively. The holding member and holding disk are preliminarily connected with one another, without the fastening stud, each in the state contacting the component. The holding disk has fastening projections and at least one elastic member which prohibits the fastening projections from contacting the second surface of the component, so that the device is moveable with regard to the component in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the fastening stud through a through hole of the holding disk. The elastic member is elastically deformed upon mounting of the fastening stud through the through holes of the holding disk and the component, such that the fastening projections contact the second surface of the component.

Abstract: A shaving foil for an electric shaving apparatus. The shaving foil includes a perforated region with a plurality of holes which are separated from each other by bars. The perforated region is divided at least into two zones, preferably a central zone, a first edge zone, and a second edge zone. The central zone is arranged between the first edge zone and the second edge zone. The holes in the central zone have (i) an average size which is smaller than the average size of the holes in the first edge zone and in the second edge zone, (ii) a floating mean value of the size of the openings in the central zone smaller than a floating mean value of the size of the openings in the first edge zone and the second edge zone, or both (i) and (ii).

Abstract: A shaving head for an electric shaving apparatus, having an under cutter comprising at least one blade which is drivable in at least one direction of movement relative to an outer cutter. To achieve a good shaving result while at the same time protecting the skin to be best possible effect, it is proposed providing the blade with an outer boundary section which is raised in relation to the cutting edge, faces in the direction of the outer cutter and inclines upwardly from the cutting edge toward the outer cutter.
