Abstract: A beverage dispensing machine designed for aircraft use has compact dimensions, is low-weight and satisfies the safety requirements and standards applicable in that sector. The beverage dispensing machine can dispense both large quantities of a beverage, such as 1.6 liters of American coffee or tea, inside a jug positioned inside an appropriate seat, and smaller quantities of hot water (typically 150 ml), which can be used to prepare beverages, via a nozzle situated on the outside thereof. In one embodiment, the beverage dispensing machine includes a bottom jug retention system having a locking lever hinged on spiral seats to keep the jug stationary during the dispensing of the beverage.

Abstract: A beverage dispensing machine provided with a cappuccino maker includes a heater, a jug provided with a lid having a hole, and a pipe, operated by an actuator, which moves the pipe perpendicularly with respect to the jug so that, during operation of the heater, the pipe emits steam into the jug, at the same time locking the jug inside its seat. The pipe is operated with a mechanism sliding upwards and downwards inside guides and is provided with a flexible connection piece for connection to the heater.

Abstract: A compactor trolley for aeronautical applications, more particularly a trolley provided with a drawer having a door with a safety closing system that incorporates a flap for direct access to the waste storage compartment, without the need to pull out the drawer and/or open the door.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a water heating system (part number lacubucci HF Aerospace AS0012480) for beverage dispensing machines. The heater has a double system: a pre-chamber, preferably of the spirally wound type, for pre-heating the water along a predefined path, and a chamber which is always full of water heated with resistors making direct contact with the water (or in some cases with a protection jacket) for maximizing the efficiency.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pod-holding device (100) for a beverage dispensing machine. The pod-holding device comprises a first (7) and a second (11) extraction subunit, the first extraction subunit (7) sealingly closing against the second subunit (11) so as to form, when closed, an extraction chamber for the pod, and, when open, allow insertion of the pod between the two subunits (7, 11).

Abstract: The reclining chair 100 according to the invention comprises an anchoring structure 200 having, mounted thereon, a support structure or frame 300A which forms a support of a seat 300B connected at the front to a leg rest 600, the frame 300A being connected laterally to two arm rests 500 and at the rear to a backrest 400. The backrest and frame are connected together by means of frame pins 316; the backrest and seat 300B are connected together by means of lever systems 410, 410a connected at one end to seats 407 provided on the framework 401 of the backrest 400 and at the other end to pins arranged in seats 323 on the seat side support structures 311 of the seat 300B; the frame 300A and seat 300B are connected together by means of frame pins 306 and 318 which slide inside corresponding recesses 320 and 321 formed in the seat side support structures 311 of the seat 300B.

Abstract: An improved apparatus for compacting and dehydrating organic waste and/or alimentary waste, comprises: an opening for loading/introducing the organic material and/or the alimentary waste into the apparatus itself; mechanical means for compacting and dehydrating the organic material and/or alimentary waste, comprising a central compacting body, designed to separate the material to be treated from the liquid fraction contained therein; means for collecting and discharging the liquid fraction coming from the treated material; and a drawer, set underneath the central compacting body, for collecting the alimentary waste compacted and dehydrated via the central body and the non-compactable waste that may be introduced manually directly into the drawer.

Abstract: The present invention relates a double-latch closing system which may be advantageously applied to aeronautical devices such as trolleys, ovens, waste compactors, galley inserts and standard units. It comprises a pair of tongues (33, 37), each operationally connected to a handle (16a, 17a). One handle (17a) is provided with a locking and safety means (17?a) which acts on the other handle (16a). Particularly preferred is the use of said closing system for aviation trolleys made with ultralight composite panels having superior mechanical properties as regards aeronautical standards. The panels may be advantageously used to construct food and beverage trolleys to be used in the aviation sector.

Abstract: An electromechanical, modular, single-column, trash compactor with a particularly small size and low weight. In particular, a trash compaction device which can be used on-board aircraft, trains, ships and/or for civil applications and generally in all the locations and/or modes of transportation where the auxiliary service equipment must occupy as little space as possible. The compaction device is formed by a system of hollow telescopic screws (5,6), for example of the recirculating ball type, operated by a motor (2) housed inside the said screws (5,6). The compactor may be conveniently installed in compartments, which are fixed or movable on wheels, such as a trolley, so as to allow easy displacement within the mode of transportation and insertion within the appropriate working spaces.

Abstract: Provided are electro-mechanical waste compactors which can operate also with 28 V power and of particularly reduced dimensions and weight.
