Abstract: A fluid removal assembly for an aircraft light is provided. The fluid removal assembly includes a condensate removal valve including a housing; a set of helical compression springs; and a stem disposed within the housing. The stem is configured to translate in a first direction responsive to the aircraft being pressurized and a first force, from the pressurization, forcing the stem to translate in the first direction; and translate in a second direction opposite the first direction responsive to the aircraft being depressurized and a second force from the set of helical compression springs forcing the stem to translate in the second direction. The condensate removal valve is configured to: responsive to an aircraft being depressurized, drain a fluid from one or more components of the aircraft light, the aircraft light being installed in the aircraft; and responsive to the aircraft being pressurized, maintain a pressure within the aircraft.

Abstract: An aircraft light is provided which can illuminate an illuminated area with appropriate levels of illuminance. An aircraft light is configured, including: at least one or more light-emitting elements as light sources; and an inner lens configured to project light emitted from the light-emitting elements onto a desired area, in which the inner lens has a lens that splits light of a single light-emitting element in different directions. According to this aspect, both a far illumination area and a near illumination area can be illuminated, and the luminous intensity can also be adjusted by adjusting the amount of a beam to be split; therefore, an illuminated area can be illuminated with appropriate levels of illuminance.

Abstract: An aircraft light comprises a housing, at least one light source to be cooled, the at least one light source being arranged in the housing, a heat sink element thermally coupled to the at least one light source and defining a cooling surface exposable to a cooling airstream for the cooling airstream to flow along the cooling surface in a flow direction. The cooling surface extends between upstream and downstream end portions spaced apart in the flow direction and means for generating a pressure difference between the upstream and downstream end portions of the cooling surface. Due to the pressure difference, a cooling airstream flowing along the cooling surface is created.
