Described is a passenger seat having a supporting device for holding a portable electronic device coupled to a seat back of the passenger seat. The support includes at least one arm having a first position and a second position, and a base coupled to the arm, having a stowed position and a deployed position. In the first position, the arm may be oriented along the seat back and in the second position the arm may extend away from the seat back such that the base is spaced away from the seat back. In the deployed position, the base may extend from an end of the arm such that the base is positioned at a non-zero angle with respect to the arm.

The invention relates to a holder (10) for detachably fastening a flat, approximately rectangular device—such as a tablet computer or a smartphone—to a motor vehicle seat (20), wherein the holder has a fastening device (12) for the detachable plug-in fastening of the holder to a plug-in receptacle (18) allocated to the motor vehicle seat, and wherein the holder has a holding device (24) for detachably holding the device to the holder, wherein the fastening device and the holding device are connected to one another via a coupling element (36), wherein the coupling element is connected to the fastening device via a first joint and to the holding device via a second joint, wherein the joints are designed as swivel joints with a first swivel joint (42) and a first swivel axis (38) and with a second swivel joint (44) and a second swivel axis (40), wherein the first swivel axis and the second swivel axis are oriented parallel to one another.

A support device includes: a rear panel including a first surface attached to a back surface of a display, and a first coupling member fixedly attached to a second surface of the rear panel. The rear panel includes a base plate portion, a plurality of ribs, and a reinforcing member. The ribs are provided on a surface of the base plate portion corresponding to the first surface. Each of the ribs has a plate shape perpendicularly rising from a surface of the base plate portion and has a same height from the surface of the base plate portion. The ribs provide spaces between the back surface of the display and the base plate portion. The reinforcing member is provided in one or more of the spaces to reinforce the base plate portion. The one or more spaces are located at a position corresponding to the first coupling member.

A vehicle seat is equipped with a display mounted on a reclinable seat back. The display self-adjusts to maintain a desired viewing angle when the recline angle of the seat back changes. The display is selectively locked or unlocked with respect to the seat back to move about a pivot axis. When a change in the recline angle is detected, the display is unlocked until the desired viewing angle is reestablished. Display movement relative to the seat can be damped rotational movement or motorized movement. A user can interact with the display to set or change the desired viewing angle.

A passenger suite for an aircraft passenger cabin includes a seat having an adjustable backrest, multiple forward sound drivers, left side drivers, right side drivers, at least one sensor detecting the position of the backrest, and a controller in communication with the drivers and operable to adjust an output of at least one of the drivers based on the position of the backrest. A third driver may be positioned within or behind the seat in communication with the controller. The forward drivers may be tweeter drivers; the side drivers may be midrange drivers; and the third driver may be a woofer driver. In some embodiments, a particular left side driver and a particular aligned right side driver are active to deliver audio content according to the position of the backrest. A surround sound system installable in an aircraft cabin, such as within an aircraft passenger suite.

Vehicle seats that includes: a pair of seatbacks of front seats spaced apart in a vehicle width direction; and a pair of retaining portions provided at rear face sides of the pair of seatbacks, the pair of retaining portions configured to allow a rod-shaped member to span between the seatbacks, the rod-shaped member being grippable by a vehicle occupant sitting at a rear seat middle.

In one aspect, a multifunctional portable article holder is provided. The holder comprises a cup holder section configured to hold a portable container, a moving holder section configured to affix a mobile device placed on and held by the cup holder section, a holder plate coupling the cup holder section and the moving holder section, and a multifunctional member composed of one or more of a folding mechanism configured to fold or unfold the cup holder section with respect to the holder plate, a tilt mechanism configured to position the mobile device on the cup holder section at different watching angles, and a sliding mechanism configured to move the moving holder section within a height-adjustable distance.

An installing module includes a seat bracket, a plurality of lower gaskets, a device bracket and an upper gasket. The seat bracket includes a first locking plate and a second locking plate locked to each other. The first locking plate includes a first concave and the second locking plate includes a second concave corresponding to the first concave. The lower gaskets are respectively disposed on the first concave and the second concave. The lower gaskets face each other and jointly define a lower assembly hole and are disposed on a lower side of a head-support fixer of a car seat. The device bracket is locked to the seat bracket and an electronic device is pivotally coupled to the device bracket. The upper gasket is disposed between the device bracket and the head-support fixer, and the head-support fixer is clamped between the upper gasket and the lower gaskets.
