Abstract: An integrated aircraft lighting and display panel includes high-density arrays of micro-scale light-emitting diodes (LED) set into arrays (e.g., linear, two-dimensional, freeform) to form tiles, the LED tiles combined and interconnected to form LED panels conformable to any interior surface within an aircraft cabin. The PCB and LED arrays may be set into structural layers corresponding to overhead panels, side panels, bin panels, divider panels, doorway panels, galley and monument panels, or other interior structural panels of the aircraft. The LED arrays may be activated by an onboard video processor and local panel-level controllers to provide cabin lighting, indicate aircraft signage, display high-resolution image or video graphics, or simultaneously blend any combination thereof, either on command or in response to detected conditions.

Abstract: A clamp for holding a twisted lighting unit includes a body member having a slot extending from its top wall to its base. The slot extends from an end wall to a side wall to create a passage for receiving a twisted portion of a lighting unit. Parallel surfaces are provided over a portion of the width of the passage to hold the lighting unit in its intended position. Various curves in the slot receive the twist itself and facilitate insertion of the clamp on the lighting unit and reduce the strain experienced along the edge of the lighting unit.

Abstract: A light-emitting diode (“LED”) lighting unit includes an operational, a sense resistor electrically connected to the input of the operational amplifier, a first field effect transistor (“FET”) whose gate is electrically connected to the output such that the input voltage at the gate of the first FET rises and falls with the output voltage, a second FET whose gate is electrically connected to the output such that the input voltage at the gate of the second FET rises and falls with the output voltage, and a string of LED lights connected such that when the voltage across the string drops below a level to operate, the voltage across a sense resistor drops, causing the operational amplifier to increase its output until the input voltage at the gate of the second FET increases allowing one bank of LED lights to operate.

Abstract: An LED lighting assembly includes, according to various implementations, mechanisms for protecting the LED lights from voltage or current surges, including hardware that absorbs the strike voltage and hardware that provides a bypass path. The provision of a bypass path in the event of the failure of one or LED lights in an LED string allows the string to be, in effect, “turned off” in order to protect the remaining LED lights, thereby allowing the healthy LED lights to stay lit.

Abstract: An LED lighting assembly onboard an aircraft includes at least one light emitting diode (LED) unit and a controller. The LED unit includes any number of primary LEDs and at least two white LEDs. The controller is configured to supply respective driving signals to each of the LEDs, the respective driving signals individually controlling relative intensity outputs of the respective LEDs. The controller is further configured to display a desired color point by continuously driving the white LEDs while not driving at least one of the other LEDs.
