20080258438 | Airbag module for a motor vehicle - An airbag module for a motor vehicle includes an airbag that may be inflated for restraining a person, at least one outlet opening for releasing gas out of the module and originating at least partially from the inflated airbag, and a reservoir containing coolant for cooling the gas released from the module through the outlet opening. The reservoir includes a wall that sealingly encloses the coolant and is opened to bring the coolant into direct contact with the released gas to cool the released gas. | 10-23-2008 |
20110107561 | LOCK DEFLECTION DEVICE - Lock deflection device for a motor vehicle for deflecting a seat belt, comprising a lock tongue for insertion into a lock buckle and a first contact area connected to the lock tongue around which the seat belt can be laid to deflect the seat belt, so that the seat belt is divided into a shoulder segment and a pelvis segment, which go off in different directions from the first contact area, wherein the first contact area can be moved from an initial position, in which the seat belt can slide along on the deflection device, into a final position. According to the invention, a second contact area connected to the lock tongue is provided, which is arranged and provided to contact the seat belt in case of a first contact area being moved out of the initial position, in order to restrain the seat belt from sliding along on the deflection device, wherein the first contact area is connected to the lock tongue through a movable area of the lock deflection device. | 05-12-2011 |
20130119645 | AIRBAG MODULE FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE - An airbag module for a motor vehicle is provided. The airbag module comprising a gas bag, which is inflatable by means of a gas generator for the protection of a person, and a vent opening through which gas originating from the airbag module can escape, and a device for controlling the outlet cross-section of the vent opening, which comprises at least one covering member with which the vent opening can be covered, in order to at least partly close the same, and which furthermore comprises an actuating mechanism which cooperates with the covering member, in order to vary the outlet cross-section of the vent opening. The actuating mechanism includes a gas source and an element inflatable by means of the gas source, which during inflation cooperates with the covering member such that it effects a change in the outlet cross-section of the vent opening. | 05-16-2013 |

20090046252 | Projector of an information display system in vehicles, in particular in aircraft - A projector of an information display system in vehicles, in particular in aircraft, for projecting images comprising information for passengers and/or crew onto a projection area which is arranged in the vehicle, with the use of a projection lens that images the image contents onto the projection area, which images are generated by a light source and a projection means. An LED array comprising LEDs that can be switched on and off independently of each other is provided as a light source and as a projection means. To generate composite variable image contents the LEDs can be individually selected. Between the LED array and the projection lens a separation box comprising several chambers is arranged. The chambers of the separation box are associated with an LED such that the chambers associated with the switched-on LEDs are imaged on the projection area by the projection lens as parts of the compound image determined by the switched-on LEDs. | 02-19-2009 |
20100033980 | FLAT ILLUMINATION DEVICE FOR ILLUMINATION AND BACKLIGHTING WITH INTEGRATED EMERGENCY POWER SUPPLY - The invention relates to a flat light-emitting lighting device for a vehicle, and to a method for providing emergency energy supply to the lighting device. A shallow installation depth and low power consumption of the lighting device may be ensured by the use of a flat OLED illumination device. Due to the low power consumption of the flat OLED illumination device, an emergency energy supply may be integrated without this increasing the installation depth. Such flat lighting devices, which in the case of emergency are self-supplying, may, for example, be used in aircraft in order to, with suitable icons or text, indicate escape routes or other emergency-relevant information. | 02-11-2010 |
20100091506 | ILLUMINATION DEVICE FOR AN AIRCRAFT - An illumination device for an aircraft, comprising a combination of two-dimensional background illumination with a reflection of incident light on a face pointing towards the viewer in order to achieve a particular depth effect, as a result of which the illumination body appears to the viewer in greater visual depth than is actually the case. This is, in particular, of importance in aircraft, in which not only is the available space small, but also the weight aspect that is inevitably associated with large bodies plays an important role. | 04-15-2010 |
20110157557 | AREA PROJECTION SYSTEM FOR REPRODUCING A VISUAL SIGNAL ON A SURFACE - An area projection system for reproducing a visual signal on a surface, comprising a light source, a fibre element comprising a plurality of light guide elements, a carrier element and imaging optics, wherein the fibre element comprises a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the fibre element is arranged on the light source and the second end of the fibre element is arranged on the carrier element, wherein the imaging optics are arranged on the second end of the fibre element, wherein the area projection system is adapted to transmit a visual signal from the light source to the fibre element and subsequently to the imaging optics, and wherein the imaging optics are adapted to reproduce the visual signal on a surface. | 06-30-2011 |
20110164429 | READING LAMP OR SPOTLIGHT - A reading device, such as a reading lamp or reading spotlight, is provided for use in a vehicle, such as a motor vehicle with immovable properties or ships. The reading device for example can be used in passenger cabins and/or cockpits of aircraft. The reading device includes, but is not limited to an LED light source with a color temperature that can be adjusted with the color “warm-white” to “cold-white”, a primary optics or lens advantageously designed as a converging lens, and a secondary optics or lens to focus the light emitted by the light source onto a surface, such as a reading plane to be illuminated. | 07-07-2011 |
