  • Patent number: 11130579
    Abstract: A device that equalizes an aircraft pressure difference has a separating wall, fixable to the aircraft, and a decompression valve. The wall is for fluidically separating first and second spaces, and has a flow opening that fluidically connects the spaces. The valve closes the flow opening. A securing element on the valve or wall enables a release of the valve when a pressure gradient between the spaces is exceeded, such that there is a fluidic connection between the spaces. The receiving element on the wall or valve is connected to the receiving element. The securing element has a rotary element and fixing elements. The rotary element is rotatably mounted about a rotational shaft. The rotary element is receivable in the receiving element. The fixing elements non-rotatably fix the rotary element beneath the predetermined pressure gradient. At least one of the fixing elements is a spring.

  • Patent number: 10952531
    Abstract: A height-adjustable device has synchronously height-adjustable lifting devices each having a standing and lifting element, which are height-adjustable relative thereto. The height adjustment is configured to be carried out via pulling elements, formed by redirection devices, to raise the lifting element relative to the standing element. Each pulling element is secured in a non-positive or positive locking manner to lifting devices, and each are configured such that a lengthening in the region of the first lifting device brings about a synchronous shortening in the region of the second lifting device. Each pulling element is constructed to raise only the one lifting element relative to the standing element. The height-adjustable device has a locking device that locks the pulling elements by a non-positive or positive locking engagement on the corresponding one of the pulling elements. The locking device is constructed to synchronise the movement of the pulling elements.
