Patent number: 9540111Abstract: An air conditioning system for an aircraft for the individual air conditioning of regions of a cabin of an aircraft includes a central air conditioning device, which provides a pressurized and temperature-controlled central air flow. A part of the central air flow is supplied to a first cabin region. Another part of the central air flow is heated in a heating device or cooled in a cooling device and supplied to another cabin region. Water evaporates in the cooling device, in order to cool the air flow to be supplied to the cabin region.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 2009Date of Patent: January 10, 2017Assignee: AIRBUS OPERATIONS GMBHInventors: Jan Dittmar, Christian Schumacher

Publication number: 20160096318Abstract: A 3D printer system that allows a 3D object to be printed such that each portion or object element is constructed or designed to have a user-defined or user-selected material parameter such as varying elastic deformation. The 3D printer system stores a library of microstructures or cells that are each defined and designed to provide the desired material parameter and that can be combined during 3D printing to provide a portion or element of a printed 3D object having the material parameter. For example, a toy or figurine is printed using differing microstructures in its arms than its body to allow the arms to have a first elasticity (or softness) that differs from that of the body that is printed with microstructures providing a second elasticity. The use of microstructures allows the 3D printer system to operate to alter the effective deformation behavior of 3D objects printed using single-material.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2014Publication date: April 7, 2016Applicant: DISNEY ENTERPRISES, INC.Inventors: BERND BICKEL, CHRISTIAN SCHUMACHER, STEVE MARSCHNER

Patent number: 8752772Abstract: In order to increase the air humidity in a cabin region of an aircraft equipped with a plurality of seats, a device includes a plurality of humidifying units each arranged in spatial association with a partial number of the seats and a plurality of outlet openings. The humidifying units are each designed to enrich a supplied air stream with gaseous water. The outlet openings are designed to emit the air streams enriched by the humidifying units into the cabin region, such that a partial number of the outlet openings each receive one of the enriched air streams. The air temperature of the enriched air streams is controlled so that the local temperature in a target region served by the humidifying unit does not fall below a dew point.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2009Date of Patent: June 17, 2014Assignee: Airbus Operations GmbHInventors: Christian Schumacher, Walter Kulcke, Karin Thudt, Robert Schreiber

Patent number: 8500878Abstract: The invention pertains to an inerting system for an aircraft featuring at least one air separation module with at least one air inlet, a first air outlet and a second air outlet. The air separation module is designed for splitting an input air flow into a first air flow and a second air flow, wherein the first air flow is enriched with oxygen in comparison with the input air flow and discharged at the first air outlet and the second air flow is enriched with nitrogen in comparison with the input air flow and discharged at the second air outlet. In comparison with known inerting systems, the inerting system according to the invention is characterized in that the air inlet can be connected to an air extraction point in an air processing system and the inerting system is designed for routing the first air flow into a cabin to be air-conditioned.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2009Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: Airbus Operations GmbHInventors: Joerg Cremers, Klaus-Dieter Kricke, Christian Schumacher
