ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an aircraft of which the structure comprises a longitudinal floor separating the passenger cabin from at least one luggage compartment pressurized normally and communicating via peripheral openings in said floor, these openings being concealed on the cabin side by air shafts, fixed obliquely to the inner wall of the cabin and arranged so that their orifice near said floor opens into said cabin and their other orifice communicates with one of said openings, creating an air-circulation baffle, in which aircraft said air shafts are articulated, on the side away from said floor, to said inner wall of the cabin, to be able spontaneously to clear the corresponding opening in the case of a sudden decompression in said luggage compartment, thus providing protection against the effects of such an abrupt decompression therein.
