Abstract: A waste compartment system for an aircraft can include a motor operated door and a proximity sensor configured to sense an object near the door or approaching the door. The system can include a control module operatively connected to the proximity sensor and configured to open the door in response to the proximity sensor sensing an object near the door. The control module can be configured to close the door after a preset time after the proximity sensor senses an object.

Abstract: A system for aircraft waste includes an aircraft waste bin compartment configured to receive a waste bin. An aircraft waste bin is operatively associated with the compartment to be stored in and removed from the compartment. A liner as is secured to an interior surface of the compartment with the liner opening aligned with an opening of the compartment for admitting the waste bin into the liner and compartment. The lines the aircraft waste bin compartment to protect the compartment from waste. The liner is configured to admit the waste bin into and out of the liner and compartment.

Abstract: A liner for an aircraft waste bin includes at least one polyimide film welded to form an interior space with an opening defined at one end of the interior space configured for passage of waste into the interior space. A system for aircraft waste can include an aircraft waste bin defining a bin interior with a bin opening in one end, and a liner as described above can be included, wherein the liner is seated in the bin interior with the liner opening aligned with the bin opening for receipt of waste. A method of disposing of waste in an aircraft interior includes collecting waste into a liner within a system for aircraft waste. The method includes removing the liner from the system for aircraft waste.

Abstract: A sanitization system can include a housing defining an interior volume, and one or more FAR-UVC light sources disposed within the housing and configured to irradiate at least a portion of the interior volume. The interior volume can be configured to receive one or more user hands or portions thereof to sanitize the one or more user hands and/or portions thereof.

Abstract: A galley unit with a cart lift is provided for elevated storage of a food and beverage cart. The galley unit includes a mounting rack configured for mounting at least one first galley component thereon. The cart lift includes a platform for supporting a second galley component thereon. The platform is movable between a fully lowered, fully extended position and a fully raised, fully retracted position with the second galley component supported thereon. A support pillar is positioned to one side of the mounting rack and is operable to support and manipulate the platform in a fore-and-aft motion between a fully extended position and a fully retracted position, and in an up-and-down motion between a fully lowered position and a fully raised position. The support pillar may include an operator controlled passive lifting system for assisting manipulation of the platform.

Abstract: A foldable galley cart including a plurality of frame members that are hinged together to form an expandable frame, a flexible material attached to and carried by the frame that forms a generally rectangular-shaped, open-topped bin when the frame is in an expanded configuration, at least one set of wheels rotatably attached to the frame, and a handle attached to the frame. A collapsible galley cart for serving food containers during a flight that is collapsible so that it may be readily stored within a compartment of an aircraft galley unit between uses.
