  • Apparatus for preventing fluid spray at leakage areas of a fluid pipe
    Patent number: 8584710
    Abstract: Apparatus for preventing fluid spray at a leakage area of a fluid pipe comprises at least one first enveloping element and at least one second enveloping element which encloses the fluid pipe so as to be flush with it, and which are circumferentially interrupted, wherein the circumferential interruptions of the enveloping elements are arranged so as to be offset relative to each other. In this way, fluid spray formation may be prevented in an economical way. The simple design ensures easy installation and economical production.

  • Bleed air distribution supply system and method to supply bleed air to an aircraft
    Patent number: 8516826
    Abstract: The invention relates to a bleed air supply system and a safety device for closing a valve in at least one of the several bleed air supply lines depending on an alarm signal that indicates an opening in at least one of the several bleed air supply lines. To stop the supply of bleed air irrespective of the type of the bleed air source, the safety device comprises a filter device for generating the alarm signal depending on the ground connection signal and on an opening signal from an opening signal device that indicates any opening of the bleed air supply line that is connected to the high-pressure ground connection.
