Publication number: 20150029737Abstract: An aircraft with a daylight input system may provide improved illumination with a reduced energy demand. The aircraft has a fuselage construction and at least one interior area arranged within the fuselage construction and includes the daylight input system. The daylight input system includes at least one light receiving device arranged in an outer wall, at least one light guiding device and at least one light emitting device arranged on the inner side. In this case, the light receiving device serves for receiving daylight present in the surrounding outside the outer wall and transmitting the same into the light guiding device. The light guiding device optically couples the light receiving device to the light emitting device. This light emitting device in turn emits the received daylight into an interior space on the inner side of a wall construction, wherein at least a partial deflection of the daylight is provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 10, 2014Publication date: January 29, 2015Applicant: AIRBUS OPERATIONS GMBHInventors: Werner Granzeier, Torsten Kanitz, Alexander Berschin, Hasko Rose, Oliver Doebertin, Florian Schmidt

Patent number: 8025252Abstract: The individual room units presently used in aircraft, e.g. crew rest rooms, are usually fixed installations so that quick on-demand changeover of passenger seats to such a room unit may only be feasible with an extended change-over period in the repair hangar. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a modular wall construction system for aircraft cabins is provided, which comprises individually prefabricated wall construction panels (701, 702, 703) adapted for a quick installation with connecting elements without additional tools. This may result in the formation of at least one room of a room unit (1) of individual size and geometry.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2005Date of Patent: September 27, 2011Assignee: Airbus Deutschland GmbHInventors: Gerold Hupperich, Klaus Kruber, Oliver Doebertin, Hermann Schotte
