Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A cabin structural component for a transport vehicle, in particular for an aircraft or spacecraft, has a sandwich structure that has a core and a first cover layer, the first cover layer being provided with a heat conductor that is arranged and designed for heating a cabin wall that can be produced using the cabin structural component.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A cabin structural component for a transport vehicle, comprising: a sandwich structure having a core and a first cover layer, wherein the first cover layer comprises a heat conductor arranged and configured for heating a cabin wall produced using the cabin structural component, wherein the heat conductor comprises a positive temperature coefficient resistor element, and wherein the heat conductor is in the form of a heating wire. 2. The cabin structural component of claim 1 , wherein the heat conductor is provided on at least one of an inner face of the first cover layer that faces the core, and an outer face of the first cover layer that faces away from the core. 3. The cabin structural component of claim 1 , wherein the heat conductor is printed on the first cover layer. 4. The cabin structural component of claim 1 , wherein the heat conductor is integrated into the first cover layer. 5. The cabin structural component of claim 4 , wherein the first cover layer contains a polymer in which the heat conductor is embedded. 6. The cabin structural component of claim 1 , wherein the heat conductor is adhesively bonded to the first cover layer. 7. A cabin assembly for a transport vehicle, wherein the cabin assembly comprises: a cabin structural component according to claim 1 , wherein the cabin structural component forms the cabin wall. 8. The cabin assembly of claim 7 , further comprising a decorative film applied to the first cover layer, the decorative film being configured as an insulating layer and arranged so as to insulate the heat conductor. 9. A transport vehicle, comprising a cabin that comprises a cabin assembly according to claim 7 . 10. A cabin structural component for a transport vehicle, comprising: a sandwich structure having a core and a first cover layer, wherein the first cover layer comprises a heat conductor arranged and configured for heating a cabin wall produced using the cabin structural component, wherein the heat conductor comprises a positive temperature coefficient resistor element, wherein the first cover layer comprises a plurality of metal contact conductors, and wherein the heat conductor comprises a plurality of heat conductors arranged between and contacted by the plurality of metal contact conductors. 11. The cabin structural component of claim 10 , wherein the heat conductor is provided on at least one of an inner face of the first cover layer that faces the core, and an outer face of the first cover layer that faces away from the core. 12. The cabin structural component of claim 10 , wherein the heat conductor is printed on the first cover layer. 13. The cabin structural component of claim 10 , wherein the heat conductor is integrated into the first cover layer. 14. The cabin structural component of claim 13 , wherein the first cover layer contains a polymer in which the heat conductor is embedded. 15. The cabin structural component of claim 10 , wherein the heat conductor is adhesively bonded to the first cover layer. 16. A cabin assembly for a transport vehicle, wherein the cabin assembly comprises: a cabin structural component according to claim 10 , wherein the cabin structural component forms the cabin wall.
