Disclosed is an aircraft seat assembly provided as one continuous row generally including at least one passenger seat and a cabin attendant seat positioned at one end of the row, wherein the at least one passenger seat and the cabin attendant seat face in opposite directions. A transverse beam of the passenger seat frame portion of the assembly extends laterally outward to support a coupling assembly attached to the cabin attendant seat. In some cabin layouts, the aircraft seat assembly is positioned adjacent to a lateral passageway extending from a longitudinal aisle to an aircraft door such that the at least one passenger seat faces away from the lateral passageway and the cabin attendant seat faces toward the lateral passageway to position a seated cabin crew member with the passengers and proximate the aircraft door.

An aircraft comprises a fuselage and an aft wall of a lavatory monument within the fuselage and extending radially inwardly relative to the fuselage. The aft wall is removably connected to an outboard wall, a ceiling, and a floor of the lavatory monument.

An aircraft seat may include a backrest and a seat pan coupled to the backrest. The backrest may include a plurality of backrest panels. A set of backrest panels of the plurality of backrest panels may be coupled via a coil hinge. The coil hinge may include a first plurality of holes formed in a first backrest panel of the set of backrest panels. The coil hinge may include a second plurality of holes formed in a second backrest panel of the set of backrest panels. The coil hinge may include a coil spring wound through the first plurality of holes and the second plurality of holes. The first backrest panel and the second backrest panel may be configured to rotate about an axis through the coil hinge when the seat pan and the backrest actuate between a stowed position and a deployed position.

An armrest assembly for a passenger seat may include an armrest and an attendant step assembly. The armrest may include a top side and a bottom side, and the attendant step assembly may be connected to the bottom of the armrest. The attendant step assembly is movable between a stowed position and a deployed position relative to the bottom side of the armrest.

Aircraft information systems, aircraft that include the aircraft information systems, methods of utilizing the aircraft information systems, and methods of configuring the aircraft information systems are disclosed herein. The aircraft information systems include a fixed computing device configured to be fixedly installed within an aircraft. The fixed computing device is programmed to provide a cabin function interface that provides cabin functionality for a cabin attendant of the aircraft and also to provide a mechanic function interface that provides mechanic functionality for a mechanic for the aircraft. The aircraft include a fuselage, at least one wing, at least one engine, and the aircraft information systems.

A stowable cabin attendant seat assembly includes a frame assembly mountable within a wall recess, a backrest mounted for reciprocating vertical translation within the frame assembly, a seat pan mounted for pivoting motion relative to the frame assembly, and at least one link connecting the seat pan to the backrest. The at least one link coordinates the seat pan and backrest motions such that upward lifting motion on the seat pan pushes the backrest vertically up for compact stowing and downward pivoting motion on the seat pan pulls the backrest vertically down.

An expandable lavatory and an aircraft cabin configuration including the same. First, second and third walls form the lavatory interior and the third wall is repositionable to expand the lavatory interior footprint to accommodate a wheelchair. The third wall carries a door deployable when the third wall is in the expanded configuration such that the wheelchair can access the lavatory interior via an exit pathway. A first door positioned in the second wall provides access to the lavatory interior via a longitudinal aisle. In some embodiments, a wheelchair securement area is positioned longitudinally aligned with the second door, when the second door is deployed, such that wheelchair access to the lavatory is provided through second door when the lavatory is in the expanded configuration.

An aircraft seat system is disclosed, in accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure. In one embodiment, the aircraft seat system includes a seat casement; a headrest portion; a seat back portion; a seat pan; and one or more armrests pivotably coupled to one or more portions of the seat casement. In another embodiment, the one or more armrests include an armrest body; a rotator link system; and a pivot link system. In another embodiment, the pivot link system may be configured to pivotably extend the armrest cap and pivotably retract the armrest cap.

A flight attendant seat comprises a carrier having a guide with opposed first and second ends, and a storage compartment receiving the guide first end. The guide provides guidance along its length between its first and second ends. The seat comprises a plurality of segments, each slidingly mounted to the guide to allow a sliding movement of the segments along the guide and relative to the carrier device between a stored position of the segments within the storage compartment, and an exposed position of the segments. A seat element is pivotally mounted to a first of the segments pivotable between an inoperative and operative seat forming position. At least one backrest is mounted to at least a second of the segments. With the segments in their exposed position, the seat element, when pivoted to its operative position, together with the backrest(s), can be used as a flight attendant seat.

An adapter for receiving a vehicle attendant seat in a cabin of a vehicle comprises a flat retaining body, a receiving device for a vehicle attendant seat, at least one first pivoting means and at least one first securing means. The at least one first pivoting means is arranged on a pivoting edge of the retaining body and is adapted for forming a hinge with at least one correspondingly formed second pivoting means. The receiving device is arranged on a surface of the at least one retaining body, which surface extends parallel to the plane, and is adapted for mechanically connecting the vehicle attendant seat with the at least one retaining body. Thus in a vehicle cabin a vehicle attendant seat may be accommodated in a very space-saving manner even at locations to which in conventional vehicle operation access is required.
