Flight Crew Oxygen Bottle Bracket
But their products , such as bin , hinge , bracket , and ceiling latches — along with panel fasteners and door latching systems — are all important to ensure passenger safety . If the bin latches close , illustrated Lindgren , then luggage stays safely stowed above passengers during flight .
“ The bin latches are rigorously tested so that the bins don ’ t open during flight — luggage will not fall on passengers . There is a lot of effort that is not seen or heard but enhances the safety of the aircraft ,” said Lindgren and added , “ Out of sight , out of mind ; in the case of a bin latch , it is elegantly placed in the bin , it is part of the architecture in the bin , you know it is securely closed .”
Safety and security are expected when boarding a plane and taking flight — but it is people like those at Harper Engineering that ensure that it happens for airline crew and passengers . They do this by offering a total engineering solution . From the moment a customer approaches the business with a need , teams of engineers get together to recommend the requested solution plus additional ideas that could take the solution to a different level .
