Patents by Inventor Robert Redecker

Robert Redecker has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9211945
    Abstract: An insulation arrangement with two or more insulation packages that overlap such that at least one overlapping region is formed and are arrangeable on a fuselage wall is provided. The insulation packages comprise an insulating material and welded cover films. The cover films are realized in an airtight and waterproof fashion and comprise ventilation openings on a side that is directed toward the fuselage wall in an overlapping region. In this way, pressure variations in the insulation packages can be compensated with relatively dry air that originates from a gap between the insulation packages and the fuselage wall in order to thusly reduce the accumulation of condensation water in the insulation packages.

  • Patent number: 8727281
    Abstract: An insulation package for thermal and acoustic insulation of a vehicle cabin has a cutout to allow a fastening device to pass through. An insulating element that is disposed in an area of the insulation package surrounding the cutout has an opening corresponding to the cutout for allowing a fastening device to pass through. At least part of the insulating element is aligned perpendicularly to an axis of the passthrough in the cutout and conformed so as to create a gap between a fastening device that has passed through and the insulation package. In this way, condensed water may be prevented from passing through the cutout in the insulation package and into the aircraft cabin.

  • Patent number: 8678318
    Abstract: An insulation arrangement with a holding device that comprises a collar forms an overlapping region between a second insulating package and the collar such that incidental condensation water on a first insulation package drains to the second insulating package along the collar under the influence of the gravitational force and from there into a bilge of the aircraft equipped with the insulation arrangement on a waterproof cover film of the second insulating package. This prevents condensation water from dripping into a passenger cabin.

  • Patent number: 7677500
    Abstract: An aircraft structural element having a cavity. The structural element has an opening in a wall of the cavity through which moisture located in the cavity can escape into the surroundings, wherein a drainage element for sealing the opening in the wall of the cavity is provided in the opening. In order that the structural element can be produced with a low expenditure on components and assembly equipment, the drainage element comprises a hollow cylinder which connects the cavity of the structural element to the surroundings, which is provided with an external thread having a predefined external diameter, and a head at one end which has a predefined diameter, wherein the external diameter of the thread is smaller than the head diameter.
