Abstract
A photoluminescent aircraft floor path marking system includes at least a flexible track having a housing incorporating a flexible, pliable, photoluminescent portion in which the track is bendable to a radius of lm or less and the track has a length of at least 2 m, where the track is pliable such that it can retain a rolled or bent radius. The track may be bendable to a radius of from 0.01 m to 1.0 m or optionally from 0.01 m to 0.5 m. The flexible track may be provided in lengths of from 3 m or greater or greater than 10 m. A flexible protective layer may be provided. The flexible housing may include a holder for the photoluminescent material.

A photoluminescent aircraft floor path marking system comprising a flexible track having a housing incorporating a flexible, pliable, photoluminescent portion, wherein the track is bendable to a radius of 1 meter or less, wherein the track has a length of at least 2 meters, and wherein the track is pliable such that it can retain a rolled or bent radius.
A method of fitting a photoluminescent aircraft floor path marking system that comprises a flexible track having a housing incorporating a flexible, pliable, photoluminescent portion, wherein the track is bendable to a radius of lm or less, wherein the track has a length of at least 2 meters, and wherein the track is pliable such that it can retain a rolled or bent radius, the method comprising:
- providing a roll of the flexible photoluminescent floor path marker;
- unrolling the marker system onto a floor of an aircraft;
- and
- securing the marker system to the floor.
An aircraft having a cabin with a photoluminescent floor path marking system installed in the aircraft cabin, wherein the photoluminescent aircraft floor path marking system comprises:
- a flexible track having a housing incorporating a flexible, pliable, photoluminescent portion, wherein:
- the track is bendable to a radius of lm or less;
- the track has a length of at least 2 meters;
- and
- the track is pliable such that it can retain a rolled or bent radius.
