Abstract: A high-lift system for an aircraft incudes at least one mechanical torque limiting device, which includes a visual trip indicator for visually signaling a torque limiter trip, the high-lift-system further comprising an RFID tag device, which is configured to be switched into a functional state, in which it is readable by an external RFID tag reader, and into a nonfunctional state, in which it is not readable by an external RFID tag reader, and a coupling device, which is electrically connectable to the RFID tag device. The coupling device is configured to be physically coupled with the visual trip indicator, and to switch the RFID tag device into the functional state, if the visual trip indicator signals a trip, and into the nonfunctional state, if the visual trip indicator does not signal a trip.

Abstract: A function-monitored guidance system for adjusting at least one system component, the guidance system including a guiding mechanism having at least one adjustment component for guiding adjustment movements of the system component to be adjusted, of which at least one adjustment component includes a sensor device for detecting a load state of the adjustment component, and a monitoring device connected functionally to the adjustment component. The monitoring device provides detection time periods for detecting sensor signals of the at least sensor device, provides a threshold value, with which the number of overshoots thereof by the sensor signals within detection time periods is determined, and determines, from the number of overshoots in each case within the detection time periods, a value for the operating state. A method for monitoring the function of a guidance system for adjusting at least one system component is also disclosed.

Abstract: A high lift system for an aircraft, which extends and retracts the landing flaps of the aircraft in a fully electric manner. In this context, a fully electric drive is used, comprising an electric motor having an internal redundancy, in such a way that the electric motor is configured as a fault-tolerant electric motor. It may thus be possible to do without a coupling gear unit in the electric motor.

Abstract: Diagnostic system including a sensor device with a sensor for generating signals corresponding to a first operational condition, a control device with a timer and function for performance of measurements, and a signal transmission device. The system includes a device for determination of a second operational condition of the system component and configured where the sensor value of the signal transmission device corresponding to the first operational condition is furnished when the sensor value corresponding to a second operational condition of the transmission mechanism is higher or lower than a comparative value, and housing component of a lubricant container and a closure device for sealing an opening of the housing component from a lubricant present in the operational use thereof in an internal space thereof, having arranged therein: at least one sensor device including at least one sensor for determining the water content in the lubricant.

Abstract: The invention relates to a housing part containing a lubricant reservoir and at least one respective inlet and outlet opening for filling and draining a lubricating fluid into and from the lubricant reservoir. The inlet and outlet openings are sealed by releasable closure devices each comprising a sensor means for determining the operation parameters in a lubricant contained in the lubricant reservoir and for generating and/or storing sensor signals, as well as a transceiver for the transmission of the sensor signals to an external processing unit.
