A stowable flight attendant seat system may include at least one flight attendant seat. The at least one flight attendant seat may be configured to transition between a stowed position and a deployed position via an actuation assembly. A seat pan of the at least one flight attendant seat may be in a folded position when the at least one flight attendant seat is in the stowed position. The at least one flight attendant seat may be configured to secure to a monument proximate to the at least one flight attendant seat via a latch assembly when the at least one flight attendant seat is in the deployed position. An auxiliary compartment defined within the monument may be accessible when the at least one flight attendant seat is in the stowed position. The stowable flight attendant seat system and the monument may be installed within an aircraft cabin.

An apparatus for use with a wall and by a person leaning against the wall and including: a receiver mounted in use to the wall; a support having an operative position whereat the support generally follows the curvature of the buttocks of the person; and a mechanism adapted to suspend the support from the receiver at the operative position.

An aircraft seat includes infinitely adjustable, lateral tilt control within a specified range. The aircraft seat includes a stationary support, a tilting frame rotatably or translatably attached to the stationary base, and a tilt control mechanism to adjust the tilt within the defined range and positively lock the frame without back-driving. The tilt control mechanism may include a plurality of linkages connected to the stationary support and the tilting frame, and to each other via a threaded block; a threaded shaft adjusts the linkages and thereby adjust the tilt. Alternatively, the tilt control mechanism comprises a curved rack and a pinion. The threaded block and threaded shaft, or the rack and pinion define ACME threads to prevent back-driving.

A passenger seating assembly with an integrated cabin attendant seat (CAS) is disclosed. In embodiments, a CAS folds down from a monument mounted to the cabin floor via a combined track fitting that secures into the left-side or right-side track rail. A group of passenger seats (e.g., two to five) faces opposite the CAS monument and includes left-side and right-side leg assemblies mountable to the track rails via track fittings. One rear portion of a leg assembly attaches to the combined track fitting to integrate the passenger seats and CAS monument, eliminating unused space between the passenger seats and CAS monument.

A stowable seat assembly may comprise: a scissor assembly configured to operably couple to a cabin floor of an aircraft, the scissor assembly comprising a first set of links including a first bottom link, a second bottom link, a first top link, and a second top link, the first bottom link pivotably coupled to the second bottom link at a bottom link intersection, the first top link pivotably coupled to the second top link at a top link intersection; and a seat pivotably coupled to the second top link and slidingly coupled to the first top link, the seat configured to extract from a stowed position to a seat position in response to pulling the seat in a vertical direction.

Described are temporary privacy modules for non-passenger seating areas of aircraft cabin arrangements. The temporary privacy modules selectively enclose a portion of the non-passenger seating areas. The temporary privacy modules include a support and a privacy device. The privacy device is movable relative to the support between a stowed position and a deployed position. In the deployed position, the privacy device encloses the portion of the non-passenger seating area and defines a temporary privacy room within the non-passenger seating area.

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.

A slim aircraft monument includes a structure installable in an aircraft passenger cabin adjacent to a cabin space (e.g., in front of an otherwise unused exit door). The slim monument has an overall width of not more than four to six inches. The slim monument includes a side door with an external handle, the door deployable into the cabin space to reveal a group of nested interconnected panels within. The nested panels are similarly deployable into the cabin space to form a substantially horizontal work surface and, underneath the work surface, vertically stacked bays providing temporary storage for storage drawers and a cart space adjacent to the storage drawers, the cart space capable of accommodating a half-size galley cart.

A flight attendant seat comprising a frame that can be mounted on a carrier fixture or integrated into the carrier fixture, and at least one seat arrangement integrated into the frame. The frame comprises a lower section, an upper section and a central section taking up the at least one seat arrangement, at least partially. The lower section is formed bent at least in a region adjoining the central section. A method is provided for fitting a flight attendant seat.

Transformable monuments may be positioned proximate to aircraft exit doors to utilize the doorway spaces as temporary workspaces for cabin crew or destination spaces for passengers once cruising altitude is achieved. A transformable monument includes transforming portions that extend or pivot into an aircraft cross-aisle upon actuation of an exterior latch by either hand. The transforming portions extend or pivot into horizontal surfaces for crew or passenger use while protecting the exit doors from unauthorized access by passengers inflight. Transforming portions of a single monument may extend partially or fully across the cross-aisle, or a system of two transformable monuments on either side of the exit door may collectively define the temporary space. The upper and middle sections of the monument may include additional storage or self-service compartments for providing refreshments or other amenities to passengers.
