Problems solved by technology

Another negative effect is that the system elements used have to be monitored from time to time, e.g. oxygen tanks or valve settings
The oxygen reservoir must additionally be carried and maintained at all times
Also, non-flexible piping systems complicate reconfiguration of cabin components—for example, moving seat elements—because the oxygen distribution system must be adjusted
This makes it difficult to supply oxygen in cabin elements such as seating elements, since the pneumatic connection to the main oxygen distribution system must be continuously adjusted

Embodiment Construction

[0041] The same or similar parts in different figures are marked with the same reference numerals. The depictions in the figures are schematic and not to scale.

[0042] figure 1 An exemplary embodiment of an oxygen supply system for generating oxygen-enriched air from cabin air in an aircraft is shown. The oxygen supply system comprises a modular cabin unit 1 with an oxygen port 7 and a decentralized oxygen supply unit 2 with an oxygen outlet 13 . The distributed oxygen supply unit 2 is arranged in the modular cabin unit 1 . The decentralized oxygen supply unit 2 is further arranged to generate oxygen-enriched air from the cabin air using electricity, wherein the oxygen-enriched air can be supplied to the oxygen port 7 of the modular cabin unit 1 via the oxygen outlet 13 .

[0043] also, figure 1 Also shown is a modular cabin unit 1 comprising a passenger seating element 1 . The distributed oxygen supply unit 2 can then be arranged, for example, in the headrest of the pa...

Abstract

This invention relates to an oxygen supply system for generating oxygen from cabin air in an aircraft. The oxygen supply system exhibits a modular cabin unit (1) with an oxygen port (7) and a decentralized oxygen supply unit (2) with an oxygen outlet (13), wherein the decentralized oxygen supply unit (2) is set up in the modular cabin unit (1). The decentralized oxygen supply unit (2) is set up to generate oxygen- enriched air from the cabin air by means of electrical power, wherein the oxygen- enriched air can be provided to the oxygen port (7) of the modular cabin unit (1) via the oxygen outlet (13).

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application claims priority to the following patent applications: U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 810,381, filed June 2, 2006; U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 822,959, filed August 21, 2006; and German Patent Application No. 102006 039181.0 filed on 21 August, the disclosure content of which is hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to an oxygen supply system and method for generating oxygen-enriched air from cabin air in an aircraft. Background technique [0004] In commercial aircraft, safety requirements dictate that oxygen-enriched air should be provided to passengers if there is a pressure drop in the cabin. [0005] Oxygen or oxygen-enriched air may be generated using, for example, a chemical oxygen generating system or a gaseous oxygen system. When chemical oxygen generating systems are used, the oxygen generating systems use, for example, sodium chlorate...
