The present invention provides a table arrangement 100 for use in an aircraft seat module, the table arrangement comprising a first table element suitable for being movably mounted to a mounting structure of the aircraft seat module, the first table element being provided with a first table surface, a second table element provided with a second table surface substantially parallel to the first table surface, wherein the second table element is mounted to the first table element, such that the second table element is moveable from a first position with respect to the first table element to a second position with respect to the first table element, the second position being transformed from the first position within the plane of the second table element. The present invention also provides an aircraft seat module, an aircraft and a method of deploying a table arrangement.

The invention relates to a tray table device, in particular a passenger seat tray table device, with at least one table unit, and with at least one cup holder unit which is provided in at least one position of use to at least partly hold at least one drinking vessel. The cup holder unit is movably mounted to the table unit.

A seating arrangement comprising at least one seat; a console adjacent the at least one seat; a deployable table assembly; and locking device. The table assembly is movable in a longitudinal direction from a stowed position into a deployed position in which it is located on an upper surface of the console. The locking device is operable to releasably engage the table assembly in the deployed position to prevent movement of the table assembly in a lateral direction.

A table apparatus includes a table device and a table support structure that is connected to the table device. The table support structure includes a carrier structure and a table support linkage. The carrier structure is connected to the table support linkage via a single pivot connection. The table device is pivotable about only the single pivot connection.

The invention describes a passenger seat unit for an aircraft cabin, comprising a seat surface (10), a backrest (20) and a leg rest (30), and having: an upright configuration in which the backrest (20) and the leg rest (30) are in a first position, and a bed configuration in which the backrest (20) and the leg rest (30) are in a second position, the backrest (20), the seat surface (10) and the leg rest (30) forming a substantially plane and continuous surface,
characterised in that: the seat surface (10) is fixed, the backrest (20) is mounted mobile in rotation around a joint axis between the backrest and the seat surface (29), the leg rest (30) is mounted mobile in rotation around a joint axis between the leg rest and the seat surface (39).

The present invention provides a table arrangement comprising a table moveably mounted to a table mounting structure, a compensation arrangement connected between the table and table mounting structure for reducing the force required to lift the table from a lowered position to a raised position, and a damper arrangement for reducing the speed of the table as it moves from the raised position to the lowered position, wherein the compensation arrangement is mounted on a shaft, such that as the table is lowered, the shaft rotates about its longitudinal axis and wherein the damping arrangement is arranged to act on the shaft to reduce the speed of its rotation about its longitudinal axis. The invention also provides an aircraft seat module and a method of deploying or stowing a table arrangement.

Powered recliner chairs, assemblies for use in the chairs, and components for use in the assemblies are provided. Electrical systems for use in the chairs, and components for use in the assemblies are provided. Control systems and methods for operating powered recliner chairs are also provided. Any given chair may be locally and/or remotely controlled.

A sanitation assembly attaches over a surface inside a tray table of an aircraft. A source of UV radiation is mounted to the assembly and configured to direct UVC radiation to the tray table at a predetermined dosage, wherein the assembly uses for disinfection of the aircraft tray table. The embodiments may use UV light sources and/or a disinfection unit powered by a fuel cell or other external power source.

Described are support surfaces (such as passenger seat tray tables) that have a pivot about which the support surface is rotatable. The pivot can be coupled with a track and movable relative to the track to adjust a deployed height of the tray table, such as among a stowed position along the seat back in which the pivot is retained at a first height; a first deployed position in which the pivot is retained at a first height and the support surface is oriented for receiving and supporting items; and a second deployed position in which the pivot is retained at the second height and the support surface is oriented for receiving and supporting items.

The invention relates to an aircraft seat device comprising at least one table device which comprises at least one table surface and at least one adjustment device, which is provided for the purpose of adjusting the table surface between a stowed position and a use position. The adjustment device is provided for the purpose of moving the table surface in a linear displacement movement and a rotational movement at least substantially in one plane during an adjustment between the stowed position and the use position.
