20090159744 | System box for accommodating aircraft systems - A system box for accommodating aircraft systems, and for load transmission between an aircraft structure and a crew rest compartment. The system box comprises a first, a second and a third region, wherein the three regions differ from each other. The first region is adapted for attachment of the system box to the primary structure of the aircraft, wherein the second region is adapted for mechanical contact with a crew rest compartment for the aircrew. The mechanical contact in turn is adapted for load transmission between the aircraft structure and the crew rest compartment. Necessary aircraft systems are accommodated in the third region of the system box. | 06-25-2009 |
20090289146 | INTEGRATED ACOUSTIC DECOUPLING IN A HABITATION MODULE - According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention, a combined habitation module for the crew of an aircraft is provided, which habitation module comprises two monument units that are separated from each other by a gap such that acoustic decoupling of the two monument units from each other is provided. In this way noise propagation within the habitation module may be prevented to a large extent. | 11-26-2009 |
20120139322 | FOOTREST - A footrest is provided that includes a footplate element, an upper swing arm, and a lower swing arm, which footrest can be arranged on a wall that faces a seat, and allows several seating positions. | 06-07-2012 |
20130015293 | DOOR FOR AN ACCOMMODATION MODULE, ACCOMMODATION MODULE AND AIRCRAFT - A door for crew rest compartments of cabins of means of transport comprises a lateral door leaf and a front door leaf as well as a floor element. With the door closed the floor element forms a continuation of the floor of the crew rest compartment. When compared to sliding doors, the cost of manufacture and the weight may be reduced. | 01-17-2013 |
20150019274 | METHOD FOR REDUCING THE OPERATIONAL WEIGHT OF A MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION - A method for reducing the operational weight of a means of transportation is provided. The method includes: providing a list of possible food selections to passengers of the means of transportation before the journey; collecting food selections of passengers before the journey; and supplying the means of transportation with food based on the food selection of the passengers. | 01-15-2015 |

20100010358 | System and Method For The Detection of Acute Myocardial Infarction - A system and method are provided for the detection of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) using a staged approach for accurate and rapid detection. Physiological signals in a patient's body are sensed and corresponding physiological parameters are derived in a staged approach in order to determine the probability that AMI is occurring in a patient in a first detection stage. If the computed probability from physiological signals indicates the possibility of AMI, then the patient is prompted, such as through a patient-wearable device, to answer specific AMI-related questions to assist in diagnosis of AMI in a second stage. AMI is detected when the computed probability in the second stage exceeds a predefined detection threshold. A patient or physician alert may then be generated, which may further include the transfer of data via a communication link or network, in response to an AMI detection signal. | 01-14-2010 |
20100010361 | System and Method for Improved Ischemia and Acute Myocardial Infarction Detection - A system and method are provided for the detection of a heart-related condition by obtaining information in realtime when a condition is initially identified as potentially occurring. A physical exercise and recovery episode is initially detected from physiological signals sensed in a patient. Once detected, a HR-ST segment deviation hysteresis analysis is performed in an implantable medical device (IMD) from certain physiological signals over portions of the exercise and recovery episode to identify the probability that a certain condition is occurring. Once a desired level of probability that the heart-related condition has been detected exists, data utilized in the analysis can be transmitted remotely for clinical review and confirmation of the device's detection of the condition. The patient may be prompted to answer questions related to symptoms that patient is experiencing through an input device in order further confirm the probability that the condition is occurring in the patient. | 01-14-2010 |
20100010832 | System and Method for The Diagnosis and Alert of A Medical Condition Initiated By Patient Symptoms - A system and method are provided for diagnosing and generating an alert for a medical condition using procedures initiated by symptoms being experienced by a patient. Diagnostic procedures are initiated in response to the patient entering specific symptoms the patient is experiencing through a patient activator device. The patient activator device may then acquire more information related to the symptoms from the patient, instruct an implantable medical device to perform measurements of certain physiological parameters related to the symptoms, or instruct the patient to perform certain tests. The symptoms and data collected from the patient and medical device are transmitted to a remote diagnostic device for performing clinical decisions based on such information and determining whether the patient is experiencing a particular medical condition. Upon detection of a condition, the remote diagnostic device generates an automated response that may include generating alerts to patients/physicians or instructions for treatment. | 01-14-2010 |

20080281379 | ACTIVITY SENSING FOR STIMULATOR CONTROL - The disclosure describes a system that measures the distance between one or more electrodes and tissue of a patient, and controls one or more parameters of the stimulation delivered to the tissue by the electrodes based on the measured distance. The system controls the measurement of the distance between the electrodes and the tissue as a function of activity of the patient. The system uses, for example, a piezoelectric transducer to sense activity of the patient, and may determine whether or how frequently to measure the distance between electrodes and tissue based on the sensed physical activity. A piezoelectric transducer may be used both to sense activity and to measure the distance between the electrodes and the tissue. | 11-13-2008 |
