ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to overhead luggage bins in the cabins of aircraft, the bin being either pre-existing or equipment to be newly fitted. Such bins have horizontally elongate frontal access openings. The invention provides that behind the main front door panel which closes such an opening there is provided transparent visor means which masks at least the lower part of the access opening while enabling objects within the bin to be seen. An essential feature is that the visor means are constituted by multiple part-visor located side by side, each of which are self latching on closure of the visor means, the part-visors being individually openable on unlocking of the latching means. This arrangement reduces the risk of heavy objects falling from the bin in that it militates against inadvertant simultaneous uncovering by one person, of the whole lateral width and extent of the frontal access opening of the bin.
