Abstract: A pipeline for the transport of refrigerated media, including at least two metal pipes, positioned concentrically and at a distance to one another, an insulating layer made of layers of insulating material and reflecting material alternately positioned over one another being provided in the ring gap between the metal pipes and the ring gap being evacuated and a spacer in the form of a helix being wound onto the inner pipe. The spacer (3) is a metal wire (3a), onto which bodies (3b) made of a mechanically resistive insulating material, which are provided with a hole, are threaded at specific intervals.

Abstract: In an emergency oxygen supply system of an aircraft equipped with a pressurized cabin, breathable gas is supplied by a gas generator (1) for generating an oxygen-enriched gas either from the ambient air, or from air tapped from the engine, or from fresh water. The generator may also generate practically pure oxygen. A mixed gas is produced in a mixing unit (14) from the breathable gas and oxygen as needed especially in short duration transition periods to meet official regulations. The oxygen partial pressure in the mixed gas is varied or controlled depending on the cabin pressure. The breathable gas is fed in a constant mass flow through an on-board distribution network to the breathing masks connected to the network. Selectable masks for the crew may receive pure oxygen while most other masks for the passengers receive mixed gas having an adequate oxygen content.
