Space Saving Seating System
In an example, a seating system includes a seat comprising a chamber, a wall structure adjacent to the seat and defining a compartment, a door insert configured to move within the compartment between a starting position and a retracted position, wherein in the starting position, the door is adjacent to the seat and blocks access to the compartment, and in the retracted position, the door is retracted into the wall structure and provides access to the compartment, a closed channel extending from the chamber and operably connected to the door, and a piston operably coupled to the seat and positioned within the chamber, wherein when a load is applied to the seat, the piston is compressed, moving the door from the starting position to the retracted position, and when the load is removed, the piston is decompressed, causing the door to move from the retracted position to the starting position.
Flight attendant seat and method for fitting a flight attendant seat
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.
Space optimized cabin arrangement for a vehicle as well as a passenger cabin having a plurality of seats and such a cabin arrangement
A cabin arrangement for a vehicle includes a first lateral segment module having a first main extension axis, a second lateral segment module having a second main extension axis, and an aisle. The main extension axes run parallel to each other, wherein the first lateral segment module and the second lateral segment module are distanced from each other in a direction perpendicular to the main extension axes and enclose the aisle between each other. The aisle runs parallel to the main extension axes, and the first lateral segment module has a receiving space that receives serving trolleys. The receiving space has an opening that faces into the aisle. The receiving space is designed to receive serving trolleys arranged transverse to the first main extension axis and staggered parallel to the first main extension axis.
Aircraft cabin arrangement optimised for the installation of seats for the flight crew
An aircraft cabin arrangement includes at least one cabin attendant seat, called a high-comfort seat, which can assume a stowed position, a sitting position and at least one rest position, and at least one furniture unit. The high-comfort seat is installed in a space provided in the furniture unit, or can extend at least partially into a space arranged in the furniture unit when said high-comfort seat is in the rest position.
LATCH ASSEMBLY FOR CABIN ATTENDANT SEAT
A latch assembly for a door of a cabin attendant seat storage compartment may comprise a release handle configured to rotate relative to the door. A cable may be coupled to the release handle. A latch pin may be coupled to the cable. The latch pin may be configured to translate in a direction parallel to an axis of rotation of the release handle.
AIRCRAFT WITH CREW QUARTERS
An aircraft is disclosed with a fuselage including a cabin delimited by a cabin floor and having crew quarters. The crew quarters include an upper portion above a floor plane defined by the cabin floor and a lower portion beneath the floor plane. The crew quarters include a seat adjustable between a sitting configuration and a berthing configuration. A method of transitioning a crew member of an aircraft to a berthing configuration in a crew quarters is also disclosed.
Slim Aircraft Monument with Deployable Workstation
A slim aircraft monument is disclosed. In embodiments, the monument is 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 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.
Detachable cabin attendant seat
The present disclosure provides a detachable cabin attendant seat (CAS). In various embodiments, the detachable CAS may comprise a first section, comprising, a first rod and a second rod, and a first post and a second post extending from the first section, wherein the first post and the second post are configured to be coupled to a mount assembly when the detachable CAS is in a stowed position and the first rod and the second rod are configured to be coupled to the mount assembly when the detachable CAS is in a deployed position.
Integrated safety seat for infants and small children
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.
CABIN SEGMENT HAVING A VACANT SPACE
A cabin segment of a passenger cabin of a passenger aircraft is directly adjacent a cockpit along a longitudinal axis of the aircraft and includes a cockpit bulkhead transverse to the longitudinal axis which separates the passenger cabin from the cockpit. The cockpit bulkhead contains a cockpit door, wall portions of left and right-side fuselage walls having respective cabin doors and an emergency exit region to be kept free which connects the cabin doors. The cabin segment ends level with foremost passenger seats and contains a sub-space left of the cockpit door and a sub-space right of the cockpit door. One of the sub-spaces is a vacant space between the cockpit bulkhead and the foremost passenger seats which extends to the fuselage wall and contains neither a galley nor a lavatory.
