Abstract: A floor covering for an aircraft interior including a substrate and a plurality of UV lights distributed across the surface of the substrate. The floor covering further includes at least one sensor configured to detect the presence of an object on the substrate. At least one of the plurality of UV lights emits UV radiation when the at least one sensor detects the presence of an object on the substrate. The UV lights may be configured to act as a germicide, and the object may be a foot or footwear. Therefore, the floor covering may be provided as a safety measure for an aircraft.

Abstract: A deployable elastomeric bottle holster for use with an aircraft passenger seat or other application. The holster includes a support bar to which a first elastomeric band is pivotally attached. A second elastomeric band is interconnected to the first elastomeric band through an intermediate collapsible mesh tube. In use, the mesh tube is collapsible to bring the first and second bands together to stow the bottle holster in a pocket or the like, and in a deployed condition the second band hangs below the first band by the mesh tube in an extended condition. The bottle holster may be constructed from elastic materials such as polyesters and polyurethanes for light weight, durability, performance, etc.
