COLLAPSIBLE TRAVEL SUPPORT DEVICE
20200290493 · 2020-09-17 ·

This invention relates in general to supports and in particular to collapsible portable travel supports for use in conjunction with a seat during travel. The support device has a main body of flexible material and a self-deploying support structure has a plurality of hollow sections having a slip joint connection and a chord secured to opposing ends of the structure and passing longitudinally through all sections. The self-deploying support structure is transformable between storage and deployed configurations where the slip joint connections of each section are mated to form a unitary structure. An attachment mechanism associated with the body attaches the body to the self-deploying support structure. The main body and self-deploying support structure are configured to form a self-supporting structure spaced apart from the seat in use and from a structure in front of the seat supporting the user.

Forward-facing aircraft passenger suite with all aisle access

A seating arrangement for a cabin of a passenger aircraft that includes 5-abreast passenger accommodation suites, each including a privacy wall and a seat movable between a seating position and a lie-flat bed position, and adapted to be laterally positioned in the aircraft cabin in respective adjacent outboard, middle and inboard positions. Three of the suites are adapted to be positioned in a longitudinally-offset position in relation to each other and defining respective ingress/egress paths to a cabin aisle extending along a longitudinal axis of the aircraft cabin adjacent the third suite. Two of the suites are positioned in a longitudinally-offset position in relation to each other and defining respective ingress/egress paths on the opposite side of the cabin aisle. At least some of the suites define an angular offset relative to the longitudinal axis of the cabin aisle.

20200262561 · 2020-08-20 ·

A seat for cabin crew, intended to be installed in an aircraft, includes a seat structure intended to be fixed to a fixed portion of the aircraft, a seat slide provided with two arms positioned on either side of the seat portion, and a seat portion mounted slidably relative to the seat slide between a retracted position and an extended position. One of the elements among the seat portion and the seat slide includes rollers capable of sliding along corresponding rails provided in the other one of the elements among the seat portion and the seat slide. The rails have a curved shape so that the seat portion forms, in the extended position, an angle of more than 10 degrees, preferably of around 14 degrees, relative to a floor of the aircraft.

Seating arrangement
10745135 · 2020-08-18 · ·

A seating arrangement for use in a cabin of a vehicle includes a first column set, a second column set, and an aisle between the first and second column sets. The first column set includes a first column of seats, a second column of seats, and a third column of seats. The first column set additionally includes an egress path of a first seat of the first column defined between a first seat and a second seat of the second column and between a first seat and a second seat of the third column. The egress path allows for direct unimpeded access from the first seat of the first column to the aisle, and the egress path is perpendicular to the aisle.

MagLev module with MTL control system in furniture and ice-breaking vessel
10742140 · 2020-08-11 · ·

The present invention relates to a innovative magnetic tension lock(MTL) control system which guides the MagLev module in both vertical and horizontal movement. The MagLev module moves on its inherent magnetic force and is guided by the MTL control system. The MagLev module with MTL control system can be used in products of various applications. It can be made at efficient cost to perform unique function. It can provide magnetic cushioning, which is great for seat, bed and other body-supporting furniture. It can also be applied as a cushioning layer against outside impact, thus it can be mounted onto the surface of heavy duty equipment or even the vessel sailing in icy water. It functions on its magnetic energy for load capacity and only requires compact battery power for its MTL control system. Thus it saves energy and reduces impact on the environment. It can replace the traditional MagLev module that runs on electricity otherwise.

DEPLOYABLE INFILL ASSEMBLY AND PASSENGER SEAT CONSTRUCTION

A deployable infill assembly and passenger seat construction. The infill assembly includes a cushion element deployable laterally along a low trajectory from a stowed position to a deployed position. The cushion assembly is coupled to a frame carrying guide tracks for guiding movement of the cushion assembly between the stowed and deployed positions. The cushion assembly is selectively deployable for use as a leg support, table or to complete a continuous bed. The infill assembly is packaged in a compact footprint well-suited for aircraft applications.
