摘要: An aircraft passenger service unit includes infrared sensor configured for detecting infrared radiation and for providing a corresponding sensor output, and a controller, which is configured for receiving and evaluating the sensor output provided by the infrared sensor. The infrared sensor is an infrared sensor array configured for detecting infrared radiation emitted within a plurality of spatial sectors covering a detection area below the aircraft passenger service unit; and the infrared sensor array is configured for detecting the infrared radiation individually for each spatial sector and for providing individual sensor signals for the plurality of spatial sectors. The infrared sensor array is configured such that each passenger seat arranged within the detection area is covered by at least two of the plurality of spatial sectors, respectively; and the controller is configured for determining a passenger seating position within a passenger seat from the individual sensor signals.

摘要: An aircraft passenger reading light, which is operable in at least two predetermined configurations, comprises: a light source; an optical element; and an actuation mechanism, which is configured to modify a distance between the light source and the optical element. The distance (D) between the light source and the optical element differs in the at least two predetermined configurations and a spatial extension of the illumination, which results from the light output of the light source and the optical element, differs in the at least two predetermined configurations.

摘要: An aircraft light comprises a support board; a light source, arranged on the support board; a first optical element, which is at least partially light transmissive, which is arranged over the light source, and which is fixed to the support board; and a second optical element, which is at least partially light transmissive, wherein the first optical element is interposed between the light source and the second optical element. The first optical element has a first engagement portion and the second optical element has a second engagement portion. The first engagement portion and the second engagement portion establish a positive fit between the first optical element and the second optical element. At least a portion of light, which is emitted by the light source in operation, passes through the first optical element and through the second optical element.

摘要: A set of exterior aircraft lights, comprises a main landing light, which comprises at least one main landing light source and is configured for emitting a main landing light beam around a main landing light beam direction (L), and at least one of a taxi light and a runway turn-off light. The taxi light is configured for emitting a taxi light beam around a taxi light beam direction (T) and for emitting a first auxiliary landing light beam around a first auxiliary landing light beam direction (AL1), wherein the first auxiliary landing light beam direction (AL1), when projected onto a vertical plane, is angled downwards between 5° and 15° with respect to the straight ahead direction. The runway turn-off light is configured for emitting a runway turn-off light beam around a runway turn-off light beam direction (Ra, Rb).
