A release lever assembly configured to unlock a lock mechanism of a seat assembly is provided. The release lever assembly may include a lever arm, a cable, and an indicator device. The lever arm may be pivotally connected to the seat assembly. The cable may include a first end that is configured to be fixed to the lever arm and a second end that is configured to be connected to the lock mechanism. The indicator device may extend from the first end of the cable so that when the release lever assembly is mounted on the seat assembly, the lever arm is rotatable to unlock the lock mechanism, and the indicator device is configured to extend out of an aperture defined by the seat assembly when the lock is unlocked.

A passenger seat system for a transport means has a carrier structure which can be attached, fixedly with respect to a structure, and a seat having a seat frame displaceable and arrestable on the carrier structure, a bottom side lying on the carrier structure, and a top side holding a seat surface. The seat frame has an arresting device and has an operating unit, coupled to the arresting device. The operating unit is movable into an arresting position and an unlocking position, is coupled to a traction mechanism. The arresting device has an arresting body, coupled to the traction mechanism, is forced by action of a pressure spring into an engagement position, and can be moved by the traction mechanism into a release position and has a locking unit, coupled to the traction mechanism, locking the arresting body in the engagement position and releasing the locking by the traction mechanism.

A vehicle seat storage system includes a passenger seat including a seatback and a seat base. The seat has a seating condition where the seat is releasably attached to a floor of the vehicle and a stowed condition where the seat is unattached from the floor and the seat base is folded against the seatback. The seat includes risers pivotally attached to the seat base. The risers have a deployed position for supporting the seat base in the seating condition and a folded position where the risers are folded inwardly against the seat base in the stowed condition. An interior sidewall of the vehicle includes a recessed portion sized and configured to receive the seat in the stowed condition. The interior sidewall includes a guide configured to direct the seat in the stowed condition into and out of the recessed portion and support the seat in recessed portion.

There is provided a system comprising a plurality of movable seats arranged in a seating area, a detection device, a non-transitory memory storing an executable code, a hardware processor executing the executable code to receive a first input from the detection device indicating an individual is present in the seating area, determine a first position of the individual in the seating area at a first time based on the first input, and arrange the plurality of seats in a first configuration based on the first position of the individual, wherein arranging the plurality of seats includes moving at least one of the plurality of seats to a new position.

A passenger seat system for a means of transport has a carrier structure which can be attached, fixedly with respect to a structure, and a seat having a seat frame being displaceable and arrestable on the carrier structure, a bottom side lying on the carrier structure, and a top side holding a seat surface. The seat frame has an arresting device on the bottom side and has an operating unit coupled to the arresting device. The operating unit is movable into an arresting position and an unlocking position. The arresting device has an arresting body movable perpendicularly with respect to the carrier structure and which can be moved into an engagement position and a release position. An arresting mechanism mechanically directly couples the arresting device to the operating unit such that the position of the arresting body is determined exclusively by the position of the operating unit.

A latching device (1) for vehicles capable of engaging with and disengaging from a rod-like portion (P1) to lock and unlock the latching device (1) includes: a casing (2) at least partly formed by a first member made of a first material and having an insertion groove (2A) for allowing the rod-like portion to be inserted thereinto; and a second member (latch (30) or reinforcement plate (20)) made of a second material and configured to contact the rod-like portion (P1). The second material has a higher specific gravity and a higher modulus of elasticity than the first material. For example, the first material is resin, whereas the second material is metal.

A dismountable seat assembly for attaching to an anchoring component of a vehicle includes an individual back hingeably attached to an individual seat, an attaching component and an emergency connecting component. The emergency connecting component connects at least a part of the individual seat which is attached to the individual back to the attaching component in a detachable way, so that the individual back and the at least part of the individual seat attached to the individual back are detachable together from the attaching component.

A support member may be configured for selective connection with and removal from track assemblies. A support member may include a body and a rolling member rotatably connected to the body to facilitate movement of the support member along a track. The rolling member may include a grooved configuration to limit movement of the support member relative to said track in a Y-direction. The rolling member may include a groove configured to engage a protrusion or ridge of said track. The rolling member may include a first portion and a second portion separated in an axial direction by the groove.

A track assembly includes a track, a support member, a support member conductor, a first conductor and a plurality of second conductors. The support member conductor may be configured to move substantially laterally and electrically contact the second conductors. The second conductor may be configured to move laterally and electrically contact the first conductor. The support member conductor may be configured to move the second conductor into electrical contact with the first conductor. The first conductor may extend substantially in the longitudinal direction and/or the first conductor may be disposed at least partially in the track. The plurality of second conductors may be disposed such that the support member conductor may be in contact with at least two second conductors of the plurality of second conductors in all positions of the support member relative to the track.

A mounting structure for vehicle equipment includes a vehicle body frame, a bracket attached to the vehicle body frame, and a plurality of vehicle equipment including at least one seat. The bracket and the plurality of vehicle equipment are configured so that the plurality of vehicle equipment each is mounted to the bracket so as to be replaceable with the other vehicle equipment.
