Abstract
Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to an aircraft region with a textile display, an aircraft passenger seat with a textile display, and an aircraft comprising such an aircraft region and/or an aircraft passenger seat. In particular, the invention relates to an aircraft region with interior components on which a textile display is arranged, a passenger seat with a textile display integrated into a seat covering, and an aircraft with such an aircraft region and/or an aircraft passenger seat.
Background
In recent years, development has been made to provide display devices in passenger seats of aircraft or similar mass transport vehicles so that passengers seated in such passenger seats can obtain information displayed on the display devices. For example, an in-vehicle entertainment system includes a personal display device mounted on the back side of a passenger seat facing a passenger seat of a (rear) adjacent seat row.
In addition, information displays or other signage are mounted within the passenger compartment, such as at the ceiling of the passenger compartment or at a divider wall within the passenger compartment. Such signs and signs display specific text or symbols to indicate an exit, occupancy of a washroom, obligations to tighten a seat belt, etc.
However, such display devices and signs require certification by regulatory agencies. For example, display devices require a credential because of the potential for injury to passengers (particularly in the event of a collision). On the other hand, a particular sign that includes security information requires a certificate for the selected expression (i.e., the displayed expression).
Disclosure of Invention
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an aircraft region, an aircraft passenger seat and an aircraft which reduce the effort during certification and facilitate the display of information.
This object is achieved by an aircraft region having the features of claim 1, an aircraft passenger seat having the features ofclaim 12, and an aircraft having the features ofclaim 15.
According to a first exemplary aspect for understanding the present disclosure, an aircraft region includes an interior component; a textile display disposed on the interior component and comprising at least one textile fiber capable of changing a color at least one section of the textile fiber; and a controller operably coupled to the textile display and configured to change a color of at least one section of the textile fibers such that the textile display displays information. The term "interior" as used in this disclosure refers to an aircraft interior, i.e., an aircraft fuselage interior.
The textile display is able to display information since the textile fibers of the textile display can change their color along the sections (viewed in the longitudinal direction of the fibers). For example, the textile fibers may be arranged in the textile in such a way that at least one section capable of changing its color forms a specific symbol, text or other predetermined form within the textile. Alternatively or additionally, if each of the plurality of sections of fiber can change its color independently of each other, the textile display can be used to display configurable information, such as one or more symbols, text (in one or more rows), and the like. In any case, the controller is configured to control the textile fibres to change the colour of each of the at least one section, and in particular is configured to control each of the at least one section of the textile fibres to change its colour independently of the other section(s). At least one section may have a predetermined length in the longitudinal direction of the fiber. Longer segments may be used to display a particular symbol or form, while shorter segments (especially multiple short segments) may be used as pixels of the display area. The term "textile" refers to any woven, non-woven, or knitted fabric, and thus "textile" and "fabric" are interchangeable in this disclosure.
The textile display may form or may be integrated in a textile covering the interior component, and/or a textile mounted to and/or integrated into a surface of the interior component, and/or a textile forming at least a part of the interior component. Thus, where a visible surface of the interior component is provided, the textile may be used to display a variety of different and/or controllable information. This reduces the effort during authentication, since the representation and/or symbols, which are usually printed or otherwise fixedly arranged on the sign, can be arranged at any time with the textile display. Furthermore, since the certification with respect to fire resistance only needs to be performed once for the fabric, whereas it is not once for a conventional display device and requires an additional number of times for a conventional fabric used in an aircraft, the work during certification is further reduced.
Furthermore, since it is textile, the textile display does not cause any harm if a person hits the display. In particular, a fairly flexible textile display does not include a rigid screen that may break when struck, and does not have any sharp edges. Therefore, safety can be increased.
Furthermore, textile displays can also be cleaned (washed or dry-cleaned). Thus, the overall appearance of the aircraft region and/or interior components can all be simultaneously modified at the usual time intervals without the difficulties that are usually involved in removing and reinstalling the fixed display device.
According to an implementation variant, the textile fiber is an electrophoretic fiber capable of changing the color of (each of) at least one section of the textile fiber under the application of an electric field to the at least one section. In response to a command from the controller, an electric field may be applied to at least one section of the textile fibers, enabling the controller to control the information displayed on the textile display. Likewise, the controller can change the displayed information. For example, a textile fiber and/or another fiber disposed adjacent (or proximate) to at least a section of the textile fiber of the textile display may include one or more conductive paths. For example, the fibers may be covered or may include a conductive material, such as carbon nanotubes or the like (which form at least one conductive path along the fibers). Thus, an electric field may be generated at or near at least one section of the textile fibers of the textile display in order to change the color of the at least one section of the textile fibers. The controller may be electrically connected to the textile fibers, i.e. to the conductive paths, in order to generate the electric field.
According to another embodiment variant, the textile fibers are thermochromic fibers, which are capable of changing the color of at least one section of the textile fibers under the application of a temperature change to the at least one section. Like the electrophoretic fibers, textile fibers of the textile display and/or another fiber disposed adjacent (or near) at least one section of the textile fibers of the textile display may be formed, thereby causing the temperature to increase or decrease. For example, the fibers may be electrically conductive and may have a specific resistance to cause an increase in temperature, or may form a Peltier element. Also, the fibers may be covered or may include conductive materials such as carbon nanotubes or other materials that heat or cool when an electrical current is applied.
According to a further embodiment variant, the textile fibers can have light-emitting means (for example LEDs). For example, the LEDs may be arranged on the interior or surface of the textile fibre, which comprises at least one conductive path to power the light emitting device under the control of the controller. Thus, the controller is connected to at least one conductive path.
In any case, the textile display may be a woven or knitted textile, including one or more textile fibers of any of the variations described, i.e., one or more electrophoretic type textile fibers, and/or one or more thermochromic type textile fibers, and/or one or more textile fibers having a light emitting device(s), and/or one or more textile fibers configured to generate an electric field, generate heat, and/or cool in response to commands of a controller. The latter type of textile fibers may be configured to generate an electric field, generate heat, and/or cool at least at one or more sections of the fiber in response to a corresponding command by a controller (e.g., application of a particular electric current). Furthermore, the fibers may be arranged perpendicular to each other such that an electric field or heating or cooling may be generated at specific crossing points of the fibers, thereby allowing the color and/or luminescence at least one section of the textile fibers to be changed in a pixel-like manner.
Thus, a display capable of displaying readable information (characters, numbers, symbols, pictograms, etc.) may be included in the textile for covering the interior components. Thus, the interior components can be made in any way desired by the operator of the aircraft, while the textile display is already integrated into the covering. This allows the omission of a separate display device, which is generally rigid and bulky, so that the aircraft region can be made lightweight and thinner. Furthermore, the aircraft region can be customized at any time by: the textile display is provided at any desired location and/or for a covering provided at a desired portion thereof for an interior component having the textile display and/or for displaying information at any desired portion of the textile display (e.g., displaying information only on a portion of the entire area of the textile display). Thus, it is easier to modify the displayed information and the overall appearance.
In an embodiment variant, the internal component is a building wall. In this case, the textile display may form at least a portion of a surface of a building wall. For example, the textile display may be provided on a surface of the monument wall facing the passenger cabin. Alternatively, the textile display may be provided on a surface of a monument wall facing the interior of the monument (such as the interior of a toilet, closet, cabinet, kitchen, etc.). Also alternatively, the textile display may form part of the building wall or may be integrated into the building wall. For example, the building wall may have recesses, openings, and/or through-holes (in the thickness direction of the building wall) through the building wall, and the textile display is mounted within the recesses, openings, and/or through-holes in such a way that the plane defined by the textile display is substantially parallel to the plane defined by the building wall, i.e. substantially parallel to the (usual) surface of the building wall.
According to another variant, the textile display may be attached to the building wall, for example by adhesive or hook and loop fasteners. The textile display may form part of a covering the entire monument wall, or may extend over the entire covering. Thus, the monument may be provided with a visually appealing surface, at least a part of which is capable of displaying (readable) information. For example, a textile display on a building wall may be capable of displaying a flight number, a class of seating (economy, business, first class, etc.), occupancy of a washroom, a no-smoking sign, flight information, and the like.
In any event, the overall weight of the building walls may be reduced, thereby reducing the overall weight of the entire building. In particular, textile displays and/or textile coverings attached to and/or integrated into the building walls are lighter than the materials commonly used for building walls.
In a further embodiment variant, the interior component is a passenger seat. For example, the interior component may be a passenger seat installed in a passenger cabin of an aircraft. In this regard, the textile display may form at least a portion of a seat cover of a passenger seat. This provides a lightweight solution for displaying information directly on the passenger seat. In addition, since most passenger seats have a seat cover, the work of manufacturing the seat is reduced because a separate display device does not need to be installed on the seat. Furthermore, since the textile display is soft compared to a typical rigid display device, the risk of injury to the passengers is significantly reduced.
For example, the textile display may form at least a portion of a seat covering that covers a backrest of a passenger seat. Thus, the textile display may be provided on any part of the backrest, including the part of the passenger seat where the passenger normally rests his back. Alternatively or additionally, the textile display may be provided on at least a portion of an adjacent seat row of the backrest facing the aircraft (rear seat row). Of course, the textile display may form the entire covering of the backrest.
Alternatively or additionally, the textile display may be provided on the front and/or back side of the headrest of the passenger seat. Thus, information can be displayed in the direction of the front and/or rear of the passenger seat. Therefore, a person standing in front of the seat and watching the passenger seat can see (read) displayed information such as information on the seat (the row number and the seat number), information of the passenger who has reserved the seat (the name and/or the status). Likewise, if the textile display is provided on the back of the seat and faces rearward, a person standing behind the seat and looking at the passenger seat may be able to see (read) the information displayed on the back of the seat.
Still alternatively or additionally, the textile display may form at least a portion of a seat pan of the seat covering that covers the passenger seat. Also alternatively or additionally, the textile display may form at least a portion of an armrest of the passenger seat.
Thus, at least a part of or even the entire passenger seat may be used as a display.
For example, a passenger searching for a reserved seat may be guided by changing the color of at least a portion of the seat cover to distinguish from the remaining seats. The respective passenger may be identified by an identifier, such as a wireless RFID chip tagged to the passenger and/or passenger ticket, trunk, specific device, etc., or an acoustic input made by the passenger or crewmember that expresses the passenger's name and/or seat row and seat number. For such an implementation variant, the controller is capable of receiving a signal representative of the identity of the passenger, and is further capable of changing color and/or displaying readable information on the textile display in response to the identity of the passenger.
In a further embodiment variant, the interior component is a floor of a passenger cabin. The textile display may form part of the textile floor covering or may be integrated into the textile floor covering. Thus, visual information may be provided to passengers and/or crew members on the floor. For example, occupancy of a washroom, seat positions of passengers requesting assistance from a crew member, etc. may be indicated on the floor. Also, in case of emergency, the way to the nearest exit may be displayed on the floor.
In yet another embodiment variant, the interior component is a door of an aircraft. The textile display may be mounted, or integrated into the portion of the door that faces the interior of the aircraft (fuselage) when the door is closed. Such textile displays can be used to display information even when the door is open. In the open state, the part of the door that faces the interior of the aircraft when closed is generally facing outwards, i.e. the door has been rotated through approximately 180 °. Thus, information, such as information about flights (flight number, flight time, destination, etc.) and/or customized information (airline names, advertisements, etc.), may be presented to viewers standing outside the aircraft.
Another embodiment variant provides a textile display which forms at least part of a lining, i.e. an interior component which forms a covering for a wall or ceiling of an aircraft fuselage. This allows to change the overall appearance of a portion of the lining and, consequently, of a portion of the interior of the aircraft, such as a portion of the passenger cabin. For example, the color of the ceiling and/or the side walls of the passenger cabin can be adapted according to the needs of the aircraft supplier. Further, information may be displayed on the ceiling and/or sidewalls of the cabin, such as seat row numbers, cabin class details, etc., or pictures may be displayed on the ceiling and/or sidewalls of the cabin to enhance the passenger experience.
According to another implementation variant, the aircraft region comprises a personal input unit configured for receiving user input. Such a personal input unit may comprise at least one input means, such as keys, buttons, and/or touch input means. The controller may be configured to receive an input signal from the personal input unit indicative of a received user input. For example, the user input may be the following commands: turning on a personal reading light, requesting attendant assistance, adjusting speaker volume, adjusting window shade level, controlling information displayed on a personal display (such as a textile display disposed in a passenger seat in front of a passenger operating a personal input unit). The personal input unit may be provided on the passenger's seat, i.e. the seat behind the seat with the associated textile display. The personal input unit may be operatively connected to the controller. Accordingly, the controller may control information displayed on the textile display in response to receiving user input from the personal input unit.
In a particular embodiment variant, the personal input unit is integrated into the textile display. For example, the personal input unit may be touch sensitive, with the touch sensitive means being formed on or in or integrated into textile fabric forming at least part of the textile display or part of the textile in the vicinity of the textile display. Thus, the textile display may form a touch screen. This facilitates controlling the information displayed on the textile display, since the textile display, the controller and the personal input unit may be formed close to each other, i.e. may form a unit. This eliminates the complicated control and wiring of the personal display unit and the personal input unit, which are typically mounted on different passenger seats in successive passenger seat rows (e.g., the personal display unit is mounted on a seat in front of a seat having the personal input unit).
According to another aspect of understanding the present disclosure, an aircraft passenger seat includes a backrest, a seat pan, and a textile display integrated into a seat covering the backrest and/or the seat pan. The textile display may comprise at least one textile fibre capable of changing the colour at least one section of the textile fibre. The aircraft passenger seat is therefore provided with a light and flexible display device, thereby reducing certified work and eliminating the risk of injury. Furthermore, in the event that the seat cover has to be replaced, this maintenance can be carried out more quickly, since no separate display device has to be removed and reinstalled.
Optionally, the aircraft passenger seat may additionally comprise a controller operatively coupled to the textile display and configured to change the color of at least one section of the textile fibers such that the textile display displays information.
Additionally or alternatively, the passenger seat may include a personal input unit operatively connected to the controller. For example, a textile display may comprise one or more touch sensitive fabric portions, such that the textile display forms a touch screen.
According to another aspect of understanding the present disclosure, an aircraft includes an aircraft region according to the first aspect. Additionally or alternatively, the aircraft may comprise an aircraft passenger seat according to the second aspect.
The disclosure is not limited to the aspects and variations in the forms and sequences described. In particular, the description of aspects should not be construed as a specific limiting grouping of features. It is to be understood that the present disclosure also encompasses combinations of aspects and variations not explicitly described. Thus, each variant or optional feature may be combined with any other aspect, variant, optional feature or even a combination thereof.

Detailed Description
Fig. 1 schematically shows a side view of anaircraft region 5. Some details of theaircraft region 5 are shown several times. Some of these details have not been provided with reference numerals for the sake of clarity and readability.
Theaircraft region 5 may comprise at least oneinterior component 20, such aspassenger seats 21 and/ormonument walls 22 and/or doors 24 of the aircraft 1 (fig. 3). Theaircraft region 5 also comprises atextile display 10 arranged on theinterior part 20. Thetextile display 10 may comprise at least one textile fiber 31 (fig. 2) capable of changing color at least onesection 32 of thetextile fiber 31. To change the color on thetextile display 10 and display information, a controller 11 (illustratively shown at thebuilding wall 22 and below the second seat 21) is operatively coupled to thetextile display 10 and configured to change the color of at least onesection 32 of thetextile fibers 31.
Thetextile display 10 may form at least a portion of a surface of theinterior component 20. For example, thetextile display 10 may be attached to a surface of thebuilding wall 22, or alternatively may form at least a portion of a covering that covers at least a portion of thebuilding wall 22. Thetextile display 10 is capable of displaying information that is visible and/or readable from the passenger cabin. Alternatively or additionally, thetextile display 10 may form part of a curtain (not explicitly shown), such as a curtain separating different seating classes or a galley from the passenger cabin 2 (fig. 3).
At least onetextile display 10 may form part of the surface of thepassenger seat 21. Thepassenger seat 21 comprises at least abackrest 8 and aseat pan 9, and optionally a headrest 7, and is mounted to thefloor 23 of the passenger cabin by aseat base 14. Theseat base 14 may further include wiring (not shown) for providing power and data to thetextile display 10. Thetextile display 10 forms at least part of a seat covering of at least part of thepassenger seat 21. For example, thetextile display 10 may be disposed at any portion of thearmrest 6, thebackrest 8, theseat pan 9, and/or the headrest 7. A plurality of textile displays 10 may also be arranged in the seat cover. Fig. 1 exemplarily shows atextile display 10 facing in a forward direction (facing the left side in fig. 1) at a headrest 7, and further shows thetextile display 10 facing in a backward direction (facing the right side in fig. 1) at the headrest 7.
Another alternative for implementing thetextile display 10 is integrated into the textile covering of thecabin floor 23. Further alternatively, a textile covering with one or moretextile displays 10 may be provided at theceiling 25 and/or the side walls of thepassenger cabin 2. For example, a liner covering a primary structure of an aircraft and other mounting articles disposed at the primary structure may include or may be formed from a textile covering having one or more textile displays 10. Thus, information can be displayed in almost any part of thepassenger cabin 2.
Theaircraft region 5 may further comprise aninput unit 12 arranged at thepassenger seat 21. Theinput unit 12 may be operatively connected to thecontroller 11 for changing information displayed on thetextile display 10, such as thetextile display 10 arranged on the backside of thepassenger seat 21 directly in front of thepassenger seat 21 with theinput unit 12. Thus, the passenger can use theinput unit 12 to operate thetextile display 10, in particular for controlling the information displayed on thetextile display 10. Alternatively or additionally, theinput unit 12 may be integrated into thetextile display 10, such that thetextile display 10 functions as a touch screen. Also alternatively or additionally, thecontroller 11 may be arranged in a passenger seat 21 (not explicitly shown) for controlling thetextile display 10 of thesame passenger seat 21 and/or apersonal input unit 12 operatively connected to thesame passenger seat 21.
In order to provide information to be displayed on anytextile display 10, the aircraft area may further comprise areceiver 15. Thereceiver 15 may be capable of receiving signals in a wireless or wired manner. Based on the received signal, thereceiver 15 may communicate the received signal to the controller 11 (orseveral controllers 11 arranged in the passenger seat 21) and/or may store the received signal or information resulting from processing the received signal in a storage device (not shown). The received signals may represent information to be displayed on one or moretextile displays 10, such as the class of seating of the part of thepassenger cabin 2 comprising the textile displays 10, the obligation to fasten a seat belt, the occupancy of a washroom, flight details, etc. In an emergency situation, corresponding information and guidance of the nearest exit may be sent to thereceiver 15 so that the controller(s) 11 may display the corresponding information on one or more of the textile displays 10. Thus, thetextile display 10, the controller(s) 11, and thereceiver 15 are operatively coupled to each other at least for exchanging electrical and/or electronic signals.
Signals may be sent from the crew members and/or pilot's input unit (not explicitly shown), similar to thecontroller 11 at themonument wall 22. Such an input unit may form part of a Flight Attendant Panel (FAP), for example. Alternatively or additionally, the signal may be sent from a device external to the aircraft 1. For example, the signal may be sent to an aircraft cabin management system, such as a cabin interior communication data system (CIDS). Accordingly, the display information of one or moretextile displays 10 can be input in a centralized manner. It should be understood that the input unit of the crew member and/or pilot may be combined with or integrated into a controller, such as thecontroller 11 provided at themonument wall 22.
Fig. 2 shows the back side of aninterior component 20 in the form of a seat row comprising twopassenger seats 21. Thepassenger seat 21 is mounted on aseat base 14 and may include anarmrest 6, aseat pan 9, abackrest 8 and an optional headrest 7, and a tray table 13 for a passenger seated on a seat (not shown in fig. 2) disposed behind the illustratedpassenger seat 21.
Eachpassenger seat 21 may be covered by a seat cover in which at least onetextile display armrest 6,seat pan 9,backrest 8, and/or headrest 7. For example, afirst textile display 10a may be used to provide information for a passenger sitting behind thetextile display 10 a. Thesecond textile display 10b may be used to provide more general information such as flight information, obligations to fasten a seat belt, occupancy of the washroom, etc.
Each textile display may be composed of one or moretextile fibers 31 as shown in the detailed depiction of theright textile display 10 b. Thetextile fibers 31 may be of the electrophoretic type, the thermochromic type, and/or may include one or more light emitting devices. In any case, thetextile fibers 31 are capable of changing the color at least onesection 32 of thetextile fibers 31 in a controlled manner. Such at least onesection 32 oftextile fibres 31 may be an intersection of woven fibres arranged substantially perpendicular to each other. Alternatively or additionally, at least onesection 32 may be designated by anadjacent fiber 31. For example, where onefiber 31 is capable of changing color at least onesection 32, one or more adjacent fibers (extending substantially parallel to the one fiber 31) may be capable of generating an electric field or heat to activate the color change at the at least onesection 32 of the onefiber 31.
Fig. 3 schematically illustrates an aircraft 1 comprising apassenger cabin 2 with anaircraft region 5. Anytextile display 10 may also be installed in anaircraft area 5 other than thepassenger cabin 2, such as a cockpit, a cargo area, etc.
For example, thetextile display 10 may be fixedly or removably mounted at any portion of theaircraft region 5. This comprises a door 24 of the aircraft 1, on the side of the door 24 which faces the interior of thepassenger cabin 2 when the door 24 is closed. Thus, the textile display(s) 10 on the door 24 may also be used to display information when the door 24 is open and facing the environment of the aircraft 1. For example, information about flights (e.g., destinations, departure/arrival times, etc.), information about airlines, and/or advertisements may be displayed and visible to viewers outside the aircraft with a similar viewing angle as shown in fig. 3.
