    摘要: Thermal anti-icing systems are disclosed. An example anti-icing system includes a housing defining an inner recess, a first support fitting, a second support fitting spaced away from the first support fitting. The housing is positioned between the first support fitting and the second support fitting. The first support fitting, the second support fitting and an outer wall of the housing define a heating chamber that is fluidly separated from the inner recess.

    摘要: A system configured to transfer an individual between an area and a toilet within a lavatory includes a base, one or more rollers coupled to the base, and a seating assembly coupled to the base. The seating assembly includes a backrest, a toilet overlay seat configured to be disposed over the toilet, and a seat cover that is movable between a covering position over the toilet overlay seat, and a lavatory use position in which the toilet overlay seat is exposed. A counterbalance is coupled to one or both of the base or the seating assembly. The counterbalance is moveable between a stowed position and a deployed position in relation to the toilet.

    摘要: Modules, systems and methods that disinfect surfaces using ultraviolet (UV) light are disclosed. In one aspect, a UV light-emitting module comprises an enclosure including an aluminum rear wall comprising a ventilation opening and a face plate spaced from the rear wall and comprising a light-transmitting aperture. Four aluminum sidewalls extend between the rear wall and the face plate, with at least one sidewall comprising a ventilation opening. At least one aluminum UV light emitter support within the enclosure is electrically coupled to plurality of UV light emitters. A thermally conductive and electrically insulating separator is located between the support and the rear wall. At least one electrical conductor extends through the rear wall and the separator into the support, and an electrically insulating bushing extends between the conductor and surfaces of the rear wall.
