A deployable infill assembly and passenger seat construction. The infill assembly includes a cushion element deployable laterally along a low trajectory from a stowed position to a deployed position. The cushion assembly is coupled to a frame carrying guide tracks for guiding movement of the cushion assembly between the stowed and deployed positions. The cushion assembly is selectively deployable for use as a leg support, table or to complete a continuous bed. The infill assembly is packaged in a compact footprint well-suited for aircraft applications.

The present disclosure relates to foot pedestals for passenger vehicles. More specifically, the present disclosure describes a deployable foot pedestal that provides support and comfort to a passenger. The foot pedestal includes an internal torsion spring so that it remains stowed and flush with the rear of the seat back when not in use. It can be deployed for use by the passenger using their foot, or hand.

In order to provide an aircraft seat unit and an aircraft seat unit assembly capable of meeting various passenger requirements, an aircraft seat unit is provided with a seat portion including a first buttocks support layer and a second buttocks support layer, and a backrest portion. The seat portion is configured to be capable of changing states between a short seat portion state and a long seat portion state. The first buttocks support layer configured to support the buttocks of a passenger in the short seat portion state is harder than the second buttocks support layer configured to support the buttocks of the passenger in the long seat portion state.

A foot rest assembly includes a foot rest member movable between a stowed position and a deployed position. The assembly further includes a leg having a first leg end coupled to the foot rest member and a second leg end, and an arm assembly including a flange and a track. The track includes a first track end and a second track end. A bearing assembly is coupled to the second leg end of the leg. In the deployed position, the bearing assembly and second leg end are located at the first end of the track. In the stowed position, the bearing assembly and second leg end are located at the second end of the track.

A vehicle seat control system (1) includes an angle detection unit (308a) that detects an angle of a connection unit (308) that rotatably connects a seat surface portion to a backrest portion (302), a frame body (311) that includes a pair of vertical frames (311a, 311b) and a horizontal frame (311c) connecting the pair of vertical frames to each other and is provided to be stored in the seat surface portion, a leg support portion (312) including a first rotation shaft (Lb) parallel to an extending direction of the horizontal frame and is provided inside the frame body to be rotatable with respect to the frame body, a driving unit (315) that is provided at a proximal end (B1) of at least one of the pair of vertical frames and rotates the frame body taken out from the seat surface portion around a second rotation shaft (La) parallel to the extending direction of the horizontal frame, and a control unit (160) that controls the driving unit on the basis of a detection result of the angle detection unit at least at the time of automatic driving of the vehicle.

A vehicle interior equipment part, intended to be attached on a floor of the vehicle, that provides a heel rest for an occupant. The part includes a floor element having a first portion intended to extend in a substantially horizontal plane and a second portion intended to extend in a tilted plane relative to the first portion. The part further includes an inflatable heel rest attached on the second portion, the heel rest being reversibly deployable between a retracted idle position in which the heel rest is substantially flush with the second portion, and a deployed position in which the heel rest protrudes relative to the second portion.

An assembly includes a floor, a vehicle pedal disposed above the floor, and a cover. The cover is rotatably connected to the floor. The cover is rotatable relative to the floor from a closed position in which the cover is disposed above the vehicle pedal to an open position in which the vehicle pedal is disposed above the cover.

A vehicle seat control system includes a front seat, a rear seat associated with the front seat back and forth, a footrest mounted on a rear of a seatback of the front seat, a leg-rest mounted on a seat cushion of the rear seat associated with the front seat back and forth, an individual seat switch unit mounted on the front seat and the rear seat, respectively, and an integrated controller configured to determine current state information of the front seat and the rear seat through sensor units mounted on each of the front seat and the rear seat and to perform interference avoidance control in consideration of current state information of a seat associated with a specific seat when receiving a request for an operation of the footrest or the leg-rest from a switch unit of the specific seat.
