The aircraft seat unit includes a first seat 13, a second seat 14, an intermediate portion 15 disposed between the first seat 13 and the second seat 14, and a front wall 11 adjacent to the intermediate portion 15. An axis line X1 of the first seat 13 and an axis line X2 of the second seat 14 are respectively disposed at angles that are oriented in mutually opposite directions with respect to a traveling direction. The intermediate portion 15 id disposed in a space between the first set and the second seat and is capable of supporting a load of a bassinet 30 placed thereon. The front wall 11 includes engagement holes 11e that detachably engage with engagement portions 32 of the bassinet 30.

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.

A safety seat for an occupant includes a front shell secured to a bulkhead. The front shell has an outer edge and an inner edge. The inner edge defines an opening. The safety seat includes a seat base having a first side and a second side opposite the first side. The seat base has a first position and a second position. In the first position, the first side is flush with the inner edge and in the second position; the second side supports the occupant.

A bus seat is provided. The bus seat includes a backrest frame having a curve in part and a lumbar support coupled to the backrest frame by the curve. The bus seat also includes a horizontal seat that is pivotable from a seat position, where a seat frame is locked onto a base frame, to a stowed position. The bus seat is provided in a modular configuration to allow multiple backrests to be used for the bus seat. The backrests may include changeable seat belt configurations and child restraint system configurations. The bus seat also includes a seat belt retractor having a vertical configuration and a horizontal configuration for retracting and extending the seat belt.

A multifunctional seat arrangement for a passenger cabin of a vehicle includes at least one first seat and one second seat which is laterally arranged directly adjacent to the at least one first seat. The second seat is narrower than the first seat, and the second seat has a pivotable seat surface extension which is pivotable into different positions relative to the seat surface of the second seat. Support functions and a child seat function or baby carrier function may be achieved thereby.

The present invention relates to an aircraft seat arrangement that is reconfigurable between a plurality of usable configurations. The aircraft seat arrangement comprises a seat having a forward seat portion (10) and a rearward seat portion (12). The forward seat portion (10) is reconfigurable between a first configuration whereby the forward seat portion (10) is in a side by side configuration with the rearward seat portion (12), and a second configuration wherein the forward seat portion (10) is displaced to be at least partially above the rearward seat portion (12).

A passenger seat arrangement for installation in an aircraft comprises at least one seating unit comprising a backrest element and a seat element pivotable relative to the backrest element between a resting position and a position of use. The passenger seat arrangement also has a support frame which bears against the at least one seating unit and which is able to be connected in a load-bearing manner to a structure of the aircraft. The support frame has at least one mechanical interface which, in each case, is assigned to a seating unit and is designed to fasten different mutually exchangeable modular units in a releasable and load-transmitting manner to the support frame.
