    摘要: A self-powered, wireless lighting system for an aircraft evacuation system. The lighting system includes a piezoelectric sensor (122, 422, 522) configured to generate electrical energy under an aircraft evacuation event when the aircraft evacuation system is deployed, and a first light source (124, 524) disposed on the aircraft evacuation system, the first light source (124, 524) configured to provide illumination to the aircraft evacuation system. The piezoelectric sensor (122, 422, 522) is operably connected to the first light source (124, 524) and configured to supply electrical energy to the light source (124, 524) based on vibrations in the evacuation system during deployment of the evacuation system and during use of the evacuation system as passengers evacuate the aircraft.

    摘要: A releasable restraint may comprise a spline housing (124) and a plunger (128) removably coupled to the spline housing (124). A plurality of snap clips may be rotatably coupled to the plunger (128). The plurality of snap clips are configured to create an interference with the spline housing (124) to limit movement of the plunger (128) with respect to the spline housing (124). The plunger (128) is configured to release from the spline housing (124) in response to a pull force exceeding a predetermined threshold value.
