The seat system further includes a solenoid-actuated recline lever assembly including an armrest or center console connected to the spreaders and spar tube assembly; a counter-balanced solenoid actuator positioned in the seat bottom support assembly; and a passenger operated release switch attached between the solenoid actuator and the armrest or center console. The seat system may further include a seat back tray table attached to the back of the passenger seat frame.

A passenger includes at least one seat component including a first material and at least one additive manufactured component including a second material, the at least one additive manufactured component including a plurality of zones. The at least one additive manufactured component is attached to the at least one seat component. The at least one additive manufactured component includes a lattice structure. Each of the plurality of zones have different physical properties.

A seat system for a passenger aircraft. The seat system includes a passenger seat frame having a backrest support assembly including a backrest and a spreader; and a seat bottom support assembly. The seat system further includes a rotary recline lever assembly including an armrest connected to the spreader; an offset rotary actuator positioned within the armrest; and a release cable attached between the rotary actuator and the backrest support assembly. The seat system may further include a seat back tray table attached to the back of the passenger seat frame.

A tray bracket for car seat back is provided, including: a fixing unit, a hanging board, a tray, and a placement unit. The fixing unit is for fixing to at least one pillar on a car seat supporting a headrest; the hanging board has a back area and a front area with opposite positions. The back area is disposed with an array of positioning components with different heights. The fixing unit is engaged with one of the positioning components. The front area is distributed with several clips; the tray is pivotally connected to the bottom of the hanging board, the tray is tightly attached to the hanging board in the folded state, and can be horizontal and perpendicular to the hanging board when opened. The other side of the tray is provided with the placement unit, for placing a carton between the placement unit and the tray.

Trays for tray tables that prevent liquid spilled on a top surface of the trays from spreading over edges of the trays. A casing having a top surface with at least one aperture through the top surface, a receptacle within the casing positioned below the aperture in the top surface configured to receive an absorbent pad that can be removably positioned in the receptacle below the aperture to be in communication with the top surface of the tray. Spilled liquids can be guided toward the aperture in the top surface and absorbed in the absorbent pad within the casing. The absorbent pad may be a superabsorbent material. The top surface can have a superhydrophobic coating.

An example embodiment of a system and methods for detecting and reporting whether passengers are seated and secured in their seats within a vehicle may include a passenger sensor configured to provide an output indicative of a presence of a passenger in a seat in a vehicle, a restraint sensor configured to provide an output indicative of a status of a passenger safety restraint associated with the seat, a transmitter configured to be in electronic communication with the passenger sensor and the restraint sensor and to wirelessly transmit data indicative of the presence of a passenger in the seat and the status of the restrain, and a reporting module configured to be disposed proximate a driver of the vehicle. The reporting module may be configured to receive the data from the transmitter, and output a respective status for each of a plurality of seats.

A table device for a seat, in particular for an aircraft seat, includes a table unit which is configured for being adjustable at least between a use position and a stowage position, and has at least one locking module which has at least one attachment unit which is configured for being at least in part fixedly connected to a seat component, wherein the table unit at least in the stowage position is lockable to the attachment unit. The locking module has at least two force-fit and/or form-fit elements, by means of which the table unit in a locked state is coupled in a form-fitting and/or force-fitting manner to the attachment unit.

A component is provided having a component body defining at least one touch point surface. The component body includes an additive material that prevents degradation of a material of the component body in response to a cleaning agent.

According to one aspect, a releasable roller clutch includes a shaft and a clutch housing positioned around the shaft. The shaft and clutch housing together defining a space there between with rollers positioned in said space. The rollers permit rotation of the shaft relative to the clutch housing when in an unlocked position in which the rollers are not wedged and prevent rotation of the shaft relative to the clutch housing when in a locked position in which the rollers are wedged. A cage extends into the space defined between the shaft and clutch housing. The cage is moveable relative to the clutch housing between an unlocking position and a locking position. The cage has a contact edge positionable to prevent the rollers from moving from the unlocked position to the locked position when the cage is in an unlocking position. The releasable roller clutch permits rotation of the shaft relative to the clutch housing in both directions when the cage is in the unlocking position.
