  • Patent number: 11465748
    Abstract: A galley monument for an aircraft has a shelf structure, a pull-out member supported on the shelf structure so as to be able to be moved between an insertion position and a deployment position and has a carrier plate, and a display device supported on the pull-out member and having a display. A first surface of the carrier plate in the deployment position of the pull-out member is located in a deployment plane and protrudes with respect to the shelf structure and is located in the insertion position at least partially inside the shelf structure. The display device in the deployment position of the pull-out member can be pivoted about a centre of rotation between a storage position, in which the display device extends parallel with the deployment plane, and a position for use, in which the display device extends transversely relative to the deployment plane.

  • Patent number: 11109001
    Abstract: A system for representing a vehicle cabin layout on an original scale comprising a plurality of projectors, a planar projection surface and a control system. The layout is loaded as digital cabin layout data into the control system and the layout comprises a first cabin aisle section extending along a first aisle axis. The projectors comprise vertical projectors spaced along a first projector axis. The control system drives the vertical projectors and processes cabin layout data loaded into the control system to project at least one section of the cabin layout on the planar projection surface on the original scale. That section of the layout which is projected by the vertical projectors comprises the first aisle section, such that the first aisle axis runs with the first projector axis in a first aisle plane extending perpendicular to the planar projection surface.

  • Publication number: 20200181942
    Abstract: To make available monitoring of the lock in a way which permits a variable configuration of the galley design and ensures reliable checking without limiting the sequencing and operation, an aircraft galley module lock-monitoring device includes a multiplicity of locking elements, a multiplicity of sensors and a signal-processing unit. The locking elements are designed to be moved from a release position into a locking position. The locking elements are designed to secure, in the locking position, a galley insert in a receptacle region, and to release the galley insert in the release position. The galley insert may include aircraft trolleys and standard units. The sensors are designed to sense at least the locking positions of the locking elements and to transmit a locking signal to the signal-processing unit. The signal-processing unit is designed to generate a lock status display on the basis of the locking signals.
