Die ANA Covid-19 Toilettentür für die Benutzung ohne Hände hat Serienreife und wird in Flugzeuge installiert …

Im Sommer 2020 hat ANA eine Covid-19 Toilettentür getestet. Ohne Berührung mit den Händen soll man diese Tür öffnen können: ANA testet Covid-19 Flugzeug-Toilettentür

Diese Toilettentür hat nun die Erprobung bestanden und wird eingebaut. Auch ohne Pandemie eine sehr tolle Innovation.

Die Infos:

“All Nippon Airways (ANA), Japan’s largest and 5-Star airline for eight consecutive years, has partnered with JAMCO Corporation to develop the world’s first hands-free door that allows easy access to lavatories on its aircraft. The innovative door was developed as part of the ANA Care Promiseblank initiative, and will help limit potential vectors for the transmission of pathogens. The first hands-free doors will be introduced to domestic flights starting May 1.
The new lavatory door is equipped with a large inner door locking knob and an additional handle so that passengers can use their elbows to unlock the door. Because the door mechanism is different to those found on other aircraft, signage has been placed near the lavatory to provide operational instructions.
The hands-free lavatory will be installed on 11 Boeing 787-8 aircraft, two Boeing 787-9 aircraft, and eight Boeing 777-200. The initial installation will be for aircrafts serving domestic routes, while ANA hopes to introduce the system to all domestic and international aircraft in the future.”
