Butterfly leafs for economy seat middle handle
A stowable armrest extension rotates or translates from the armrest and deploys into one or more horizontal extensions. Linking elements connect the movement of various components to direct, restrict, and automate deployment. A central column may isolate the butterfly leafs to prevent incidental contact between neighboring passengers. An actuator may apply a force to deploy the stowable armrest extension, either when a release is activated or when a top cap is moved.
Passenger seat with comfort layout
A passenger seat (10) with a sitting area (40), a side ottoman (42), an open space (44) that may be enclosed via use of a bed extension (50), and a backrest (14). The backrest may be divided into an upper portion and a lower portion. The seat may also be provided with one or more storage areas and/or a side console.
Arrangement of individual seats for passengers of an aeroplane equipped with screen supports forming a separating wall
An arrangement of individual seats intended to be installed in an aeroplane cabin includes at least one module of two seats disposed opposite one another, said module having a longitudinal elongation direction, characterized in that said arrangement further comprises: a console disposed between the two seats of the module; a screen connected to each seat, each screen being mounted on a screen support; the screen supports being movable between a stowed position and a deployed operating position, in which the screen supports are positioned substantially edge-to-edge and form a partition wall between the two seats located opposite one another.
Kit of parts for assembling an aircraft seat unit
The invention provides a kit of parts for assembling an aircraft seat unit, comprising a frame with a slot, a panel for forming a shell of the aircraft seat unit and defining a footprint of the aircraft seat unit, having a first end and a second opposite end, the first end configured to be slid in and out of the frame slot to provide a variable dimension from the frame to second opposite end of the panel, and a fixing mechanism for fixing the panel within the frame slot, in a configuration providing a desired value of aircraft seat unit variable dimension. The invention also provides a plurality of such kits of parts, an aircraft seat unit and an aircraft cabin comprising a plurality of such aircraft seat units or made from such kit of parts, and methods of installing an aircraft seat unit.
PASSENGER SEAT UNIT WITH FOLDABLE DOOR
A passenger seating unit for a vehicle, such as an aircraft, includes a privacy shell and a door. The privacy shell at least partially defines a passenger seat area, and the privacy shell includes an opening for allowing entry to and exit from the seat unit. A passenger seat may be provided in the passenger seat area. The door is supported on the privacy shell and includes a first panel and a second panel. The second panel is pivotably connected to the first panel such that the second panel is movable relative to the first panel between a folded position and an unfolded position. In the folded position, the door is movable in a forward and aft direction relative to the privacy shell.
Adapter plate for an aircraft seat
An adapter plate for an aircraft seat may include a body configured to be positioned exterior of an armrest of the aircraft seat within a space proximate to the aircraft seat. The body may include at least one coupler configured to attach to the aircraft seat. The body may include at least one mount point. The at least one mount point of the body may be configured to attach to at least one mount bracket of the removable auxiliary aircraft accessory. The auxiliary aircraft accessory may be positioned within the space proximate to the aircraft seat when coupled to the at least one mount point of the body via the at least one mount bracket.
Seat usage prevention device
A seat usage prevention device is disclosed. The seat usage prevention deice includes at least one device component being configured to interact with one or more seat components of a first seat. The device component is configured to prevent usage of at least one of a seat pan or seatback of the first seat. The device component further separates a second seat from at least a third seat, wherein the third seat is proximate to at least one of the first seat or the second seat. The seat usage prevention device may include a device component that further includes a cushion, a base, an amenity console, or a vertical separator, or combination thereof.
Bench-back aircraft seat for aircraft passenger compartment suites
An aircraft seat for an aircraft passenger compartment suite may include a primary section with an upper actuatable portion and a lower actuatable portion. The primary section may be configured to actuate between a primary upright position and a primary lie-flat position. The aircraft seat may include an auxiliary section including an auxiliary seatback portion coupled to a privacy shell element of the aircraft passenger compartment suite and an auxiliary seat base portion configured to actuate between an auxiliary upright position and an auxiliary lie-flat position. The auxiliary seatback portion may include an actuatable element. The actuatable element may be configured to actuate between an open position and a closed position. The actuatable element may be configured to provide access to a stowage compartment when the actuatable element is in the open position.
Aircraft interior structure including a surface and an integrated footwell
An aircraft interior structure may include a social area section including a surface. The social area section may be accessible from a floor area of an aircraft cabin. The aircraft interior structure may include a passenger seating section proximate to an aircraft seat. The passenger seating section may include a footwell. The aircraft interior structure may include a partition separating the passenger seating section and a first portion of the social area section. The footwell of the passenger seating section may be positioned underneath at least one of the partition or the surface of the social area section in a second portion of the social area section.
Actuatable door for an aircraft passenger suite
An actuatable door for an aircraft passenger suite may include a flexible privacy divider configured to actuate between a stowed divider position and a deployed divider position, a cartridge configured to actuate between a stowed cartridge position and a deployed cartridge position via at least one intermediate cartridge position, and a mechanism housed within the cartridge and configured to actuate the flexible privacy divider between the stowed divider position and the deployed divider position, where the flexible privacy divider may be at least partially stowed within the cartridge when in the stowed divider position. The actuatable door may be configured to actuate between a stowed door position and a deployed door position via at least one intermediate door position, and configured to separate the aircraft passenger suite from an open area within an aircraft cabin when in the deployed door position and provide privacy to the aircraft passenger suite.
