发明名称 AIRCRAFT LAVATORY AND GALLEY SEPARATED BY AN INTERNAL WALL HAVING AN INTERMEDIATE NOTCH THAT IMPROVES THE LAVATORY ENVIRONMENT
摘要 An internal wall in an aircraft cabin separates a lavatory and a galley of the aircraft. The internal wall has an intermediate notch that increases a lateral width dimension of the lavatory above the notch and thereby improves the spatial environment of the lavatory.

主权项 1. An aircraft comprising: an aircraft body containing an aircraft cabin, the aircraft cabin having a longitudinal length between a front of the cabin and a rear of the cabin, and the aircraft cabin having a lateral width between opposite first and second interior side walls of the aircraft body; a floor surface in the aircraft cabin; a lavatory in the aircraft cabin; a stowage space in the aircraft cabin; a horizontal counter surface above the stowage space, the counter surface having a front edge and an opposite rear edge, a left edge and an opposite right edge; a first internal wall in the aircraft cabin laterally between the lavatory and the stowage space, the first internal wall having a lower section, an intermediate section and an upper section that are all interconnected, the lower section extending vertically upwardly from the floor surface between a lower area of the lavatory and a lower area of the stowage space to the intermediate section, the intermediate section being a continuation of the counter surface and extending horizontally over the lower area of the stowage space from the lower section to the upper section, and the upper section extending vertically upwardly from the intermediate section between an upper area of the lavatory and an upper area of the stowage space, wherein a lateral width dimension of the lavatory above the intermediate section is larger than a largest lateral width dimension of the lavatory below the intermediate section; a second internal wall in the aircraft cabin, the second internal wall having a second internal wall upper section that extends upwardly from the counter surface and is spaced laterally from the first internal wall upper section; and, a vertical partition attached to the first internal wall upper section, the partition being moveable between an open position and a closed position where in the open position the partition extends laterally over the counter surface between the first internal wall upper section and the second internal wall upper section and in the closed position the partition is displaced from over the counter surface; and, the first internal wall upper section being moveable between an opened position and a closed position where in the closed position of the first internal wall upper section the first internal wall upper section extends between the first internal wall intermediate section and the counter surface separating the lavatory from the counter surface and in the open position of the first internal wall upper section the first internal wall upper section extends over the counter surface providing access from the lavatory to the counter surface.
