Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for collecting status information of components in a passenger cabin of a vehicle, a system for collecting status information of components in a passenger cabin of a vehicle, the use of such a system and a vehicle with a passenger cabin and such a system.
- logbooks are used in which manually detected defects in the passenger cabin are detected. In a commercial aircraft, this is usually done by a flight attendant. However, as a flight attendant has to perform many other activities during the flight, there is ample opportunity to record new defects in the logbook only before or after a flight. Defects that are reported by passengers during the flight could be due to this
- EP 1 280 316 A2 shows an electronic variant of a logbook in which different users with different security levels can perform dialog-guided inputs of defect data. At the same time, the authorization of the respective user is checked. Furthermore, generated maintenance data for use during a
- An object of the invention could therefore be a method and a
- a method according to the present invention provides an advantageous way of collecting defect data from components in a passenger cabin of a vehicle, wherein the steps described below are performed. In a first step becomes a
- connection here does not necessarily designate a physical connection between two devices, but the initiation of the communication between the electronic device and the communication device, for example, sending a request from the electronic device via a suitable network to the communication device to which the communication device responds accordingly and is ready for further communication.
- the electronic device retrieves a user interface from the communication device in a further step.
- the electronic device is enabled to serve as a tool for user input and information exchange for a user.
- a user can communicate with the communication device via the electronic device and exchange data.
- the subsequent communication by the user is controlled via a dialog-driven querying of defect data of components, in which the user as intuitively as possible interrogates the type and location of the detected defect becomes.
- the user is proposed in the manner of a cascade in successive questions each few alternatives for selection, which can be selected accordingly by an input device such as a keyboard, a collection of control buttons, a touch-sensitive screen or the like.
- an input device such as a keyboard, a collection of control buttons, a touch-sensitive screen or the like.
- the detected defect is iteratively circled.
- an equipment component such as seat, service unit above the seat or the like could be selected.
- possible subsets could be proposed to the user in which there is a defect.
- the subsets could be, for example, backrest, seat, table, display or the like.
- the table as a subset could be in a subsequent step about the
- Table lock or the like can be selected as a defective component.
- the detected defect data is stored by the communication device in a central data storage unit.
- the particular advantage of this method according to the invention is that a user or passenger in a passenger cabin is not dependent on communicating a detected defect to a vehicle attendant. This rules out that a detected error is forgotten until finding a vehicle companion. Also, the risk is bypassed that even the vehicle companion until after the trip or the flight forgets this reported error, if there is an opportunity to maintain the logbook.
- a user detects a defect of a component which is in its immediate vicinity, he could establish a connection with the communication device via the associated electronic device and enter information on the detected defect.
- These defect data are then collected at a central location, so that with regular participation of the user in this method according to the invention all detectable defects are detected at any time and can be considered directly according to maintenance on the vehicle.
- the erfmdungswashe method is tuned so that the user does not have to limit this to certain sensory organs, but can incorporate all perceptions in the erfmdungswashe method. For example, if it were not possible to release a table latch, it could be registered as well as the detection of a smelly smell or the like in its environment.
- the proportion of users who actually perform the erfmdungsdorfe method for detecting defects could be increased by various measures, so that always a sufficiently high proportion of existing defects in the passenger cabin are also known.
- an advertisement could be initiated on each in the passenger cabin electronic device, which is asked for the indication of satisfaction.
- dialog-guided query is particularly advantageous because this eliminates a manual post-processing effort that would be necessary, for example, in free text information.
- Each user can be pointed out by the dialog-guided query only all possible alternatives, between which the user can then choose. This can not be
- Hierarchical in this context means that the query dialogues, as described above, are graded bit by bit from a superordinate whole to the desired detail and can be arbitrarily controlled by the user through appropriate entries. It would be possible to arrange the hierarchy of these query dialogs as a subset of a common cabin logbook. However, since it must be expected that even technically inexperienced users on the inventive Procedures, the query dialogs should be as flat as possible.
- the electronic device is designed as a mobile electronic device that connects wirelessly with the communication device, retrieves a user interface of the communication device and displays on a screen of the mobile electronic device.
- This mobile electronic device wirelessly communicates with the communication device to query the defect data. It is by no means a certain kind of mobile
- a permanently installed electronic device with a screen can be entrusted with this task, whereby this permanently installed electronic device likewise connects as required to the communication device, a user interface on a screen associated with the electronic device and communicates with the communication device for polling the defect data.
- This electronic device which for example belongs to an in-flight entertainment system (also referred to as IFE for "in flight entertainment”), can take place wirelessly or else by wire
- Screen which is located for example in a backrest or on a swivel arm in an armrest, a user interface for data query are displayed.
- the dialog-driven querying of defect data builds up the hierarchical graphical representation of components. It may be too cumbersome for a technically inexperienced user to work their way through a text-only menu structure until the desired defective part can be tracked from a list of devices, assemblies or components to be found.
- a hierarchical graphical representation may be much more intuitive here, so that the willingness to participate in the method according to the invention for querying defect data is also increased.
- dialog guided queries of defect data may also have the hierarchically structured text based representation of components or other data, for example, when asked for a seat number, a direction indication or a component group.
- the inventive method can be universally used in many different types of vehicles without costly adaptation. This can be done be further facilitated if, for example, the communication device retrieves data from as defective reportable components in the passenger cabin from a database, the database can be modified vehicle-specific. To carry out the method according to the invention in different vehicles, only an adaptation of the data set has to take place, whereby this data set can preferably also be extracted from an already existing maintenance system.
- Scope immediately upon detection of a defect, an exact error description is generated via a corresponding input via the dialog-based query about the selection of predefined options. Due to its exactness, this can be processed by an algorithm and transferred directly to a maintenance plan via a maintenance system. This can ensure that all detected errors also appear in a maintenance plan and can also be taken into account in a regular or unscheduled maintenance of the vehicle.
- Fig. 1 shows a schematic view of the method according to the invention.
- Fig. 2 shows a schematic view of a first embodiment of the system according to the invention.
- Fig. 3 shows a schematic view of a second embodiment of the system according to the invention.
- FIG. 4 shows an example of an aircraft with a system according to the invention.
- FIG. 1 shows, on the basis of a schematic view in the form of a block diagram, how the method according to the invention for collecting defect data could be structured.
- an electronic device associated with a user could connect to a central communication device 2 so as to allow further communication.
- the electronic device could then retrieve a user interface provided by the communication device 4.
- a dedicated installed software or the like it would be conceivable, for example, to use a user interface which builds on already standardized protocols, such as HTTP, and also allows representation of data in standard written description languages, such as HTML, XML or the like.
- a user interface could accordingly also be designed for hypertext pages adapted for mobile electronic devices or for screens of an in-flight entertainment system, with which the user in question can interact.
- the communication device could generate 6 hierarchical query dialogues and transmitted to the electronic device. It is not necessary that generating the
- Query dialogues only after retrieving the user interface takes place it could, for example, a pre-made initial dialog be generated earlier and immediately displayed with retrieving the user interface.
- the user interacts with the UI 8 and gives answers to the
- Query dialogues to the communication device Since these are hierarchical query dialogues, the user starts with a superordinate introductory dialog and, by successively selecting offered alternatives and possibly answering various questions, obtains a steadily increasing level of detail, by which the user can do so
- Interaction may include the selection of text-based choices 7 as well as the selection of graphically displayed choices 9, such as the representation of different components.
- a flight attendant could enter a floppy disk, memory stick or the like with an updated data set into a control unit installed in the aircraft before the flight after reconfiguration of the passenger cabin, so that the method according to the invention is always carried out reliably and completely with current component data during operation of the vehicle can.
- FIG. 2 shows the schematic structure of a system according to the invention which has approximately a mobile electronic device 16, a communication device 18, a router 20 and one or more data transmission units 22.
- the mobile electronic device 16 is configured, for example, to connect to other wireless network components via a wireless network connection.
- it has an internal or external antenna 24, which is connected via a corresponding adapter to the central processing unit of the mobile electronic device 16.
- Mobile phones or PDAs by default WLAN adapters, through which an easy communication within a WLAN is possible, so that can be expected in a passenger cabin with a large number of suitable mobile electronic devices 16.
- the router 20 which is connected, for example, to the data connection units 22, a network can be provided within the passenger cabin.
- the data connection units 22 are implemented in the exemplary case as WLAN antennas or WLAN access points, depending on the type or requirement of the router 20.
- the data connection units 22 are placed at one or more locations within the passenger cabin, so that a good network coverage within the passenger cabin can be created. It could recommend to reduce the radiation exposure tends to arrange a plurality of data connection units 22 within the passenger cabin and their respective transmission power and thus to minimize range.
- the router 20 is further connected to the communication device 18 and thus provides an interface between the communication device and all devices accessing via the wireless network.
- Electronic device 16 via the data connection units 22 and the router 20 to establish a connection to the communication device 18 by logging in the wireless network, receives a communication address or the like and prepares the communication device 18 for communication with the mobile terminal 16.
- the communication device 18 may provide a user interface 26 through which dialog-driven polling of component defects is enabled.
- Communication device 18 via the router 20 continue to be connected to a central data storage unit 28. It is not necessary for the data storage unit 28 to be implemented as external server, it is also conceivable that the communication device 18 has an internal data storage unit 28, so that the detour via the router 20 or other components can be avoided.
- a further component of the system according to the invention could be a database 30 which has all the relevant component data which can be reported as defective and the communication device 20 for generating hierarchical query dialogues based on the current one
- connection of this database 30 with the communication device 18 is permanently or temporarily necessary.
- FIG. 3 shows a modification of the system according to the invention, which differs from that shown in FIG. 2 in that the electronic devices assigned to the users are not embodied as mobile electronic devices 16 but are realized by means of permanently installed electronic devices 32. These could be realized with permanently installed touch-screen units that usually provide passengers in the passenger cabin with a conversation to bridge the time spent aboard and are often located in the back of a front seat.
- Such devices should be able to retrieve and display a user interface 26 and to interact with the user. Frequently exists in commercial aircraft, the ability to play simple games on these screen units, so that for the implementation of the inventive method due to already existing input options and
- a modern airliner 34 is shown with reference to FIG. 4, which could be equipped with a system according to the invention for improved collection of defect data and executes the method according to the invention during the flight.
- the mobile electronic devices 16 may be any electronic devices that are introduced by the passengers in the passenger cabin and often used for pastime.
- the integration of the method according to the invention on already permanently installed screen units is conceivable as an alternative or in addition.
- a very high level of user acceptance is to be expected, since on the one hand, one's own and familiar mobile electronic devices can be used to pass on defect data.
- the on-screen units or other electronic devices are often used and it would be possible just in these devices, for example, during a landing approach in a commercial aircraft, a passenger of FIG. 1 to request 15 to enter any detected defects in the passenger cabin before leaving the cabin ,
- Communication device 18 are already provided, as well as a memory unit 28, so that is to be expected with a low complexity of the system according to the invention.
