  • Patent number: 9626846
    Abstract: An evacuation slide comprises a sliding face having a top end portion adapted to be positioned adjacent to an exit of a region to be evacuated, and a bottom end portion adapted to be positioned adjacent to an escape route leading away from the region to be evacuated and being arranged at a lower height than the region to be evacuated. A light signal generating device is adapted to irradiate at least one light beam onto the escape route which extends further in a direction parallel to a center line of the escape route than in a direction perpendicular to the center line of the escape route so as to indicate a predefined evacuation direction along the escape route.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8348451
    Abstract: Emergency cabin illumination for an aircraft, including: at least one cabin component of an aircraft and at least one emergency lighting device, the at least one emergency lighting device being arranged in the cabin component so that the emergency lighting device in its switched-off state has no contrast to its environment, and in the switched-on state of the emergency lighting device, the light emitted emerges from the cabin component.

  • Patent number: 6842120
    Abstract: A device comprises a luminous indicator intended to indicate an emergency exit and capable of being placed in at least one of three different states, a standby state, in which it emits a first luminous radiation which is continuous and which exhibits a first intensity, an alert state, in which it emits a second luminous radiation which is discontinuous and which exhibits a second intensity greater than the first intensity, and a third state, and an operating unit for operating the luminous indicator in such a way as to place it in the standby state, in a normal situation, in the alert state, during an emergency evacuation via the emergency exit, which is passable, and in the third state, during an emergency evacuation when the emergency exit is impassable.
