摘要:
In some embodiments, a cushion material (108) is disclosed. The cushion material (108) is configured to be 3D-printable. The cushion material (108) includes a plurality of gyroid lattice structures (106) configured to be 3D-printable. The plurality of gyroid lattice structures (106) are aligned along, and with respect to, a surface of the cushion material (108). In some embodiments, a method for providing a cushion material (108) that is capable of being 3D printed is disclosed. The method includes generating a design of the cushion material (108) comprising a variable mechanical stiffness across a surface of the cushion material (108). The method further includes producing the cushion material (108) via additive manufacturing based on the design. Generating the design includes generating a layout design of a plurality of tube-like shaped gyroid lattice structures (106) of the cushion material (108) aligned with the surface of the cushion material (108).

An aircraft passenger seat that includes a seat frame including a seat back and at least one armrest, a seat bottom that includes a seat pan and a foam seat cushion positioned on the seat bottom above the seat pan, a pneumatic cushion positioned on the seat bottom between the seat pan and the foam seat cushion and adapted to maintain a predetermined level of inflation determined by air pressure within the pneumatic cushion, and a pneumatic inflation device communicating with the pneumatic cushion for permitting the air pressure within the pneumatic cushion to be varied as desired to provide additional comfort to the seat occupant. The pneumatic cushion may include at least first and second laterally-separated cushion chambers providing lateral articulation of the first and second cushion chambers relative to each other.

A passenger seating system (102) in an aircraft cabin may include at least one aisle (104) which runs in a direction parallel to a longitudinal axis of the aircraft cabin. The passenger seating system (102) may further include one or more passenger compartments (106) which face a direction in parallel with the longitudinal axis of the aircraft cabin. The one or more passenger compartments (106) may include at least one aircraft seat (110), a structural panel (200), and a privacy wall (202). The aircraft seat (110) may be positioned within the one or more passenger compartments (106) at an angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft cabin. The structural panel (200) may be positioned behind the aircraft seat (110), and it may extend in a perpendicular direction relative to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft cabin. The privacy wall (202) may be positioned between the aircraft seat (110) and the adjacent aisle.

An aircraft seat may include an integrated controller feedback system. The controller feedback system may include a user interface device (114) at least partially embedded within an armrest console of the aircraft seat. The user interface device (114) may include a control panel (302), one or more buttons, one or more sensors, and/or a controller. The one or more buttons may indicate a controllable feature of the feedback system. The one or more sensors may be aligned with the one or more buttons and may be able to distinguishably detect a user touch from a user press. The controller may be in communication with the one or more sensors. The controller may generate one or more feedback signals in response to a user touch, and/or generate one or more activation signals in response to a user press.
摘要:
A tray table assembly and a passenger seat arrangement including a tray table assembly. The tray table assembly includes a tray table (202) coupled to a motion path element (104) determining a motion path of the tray table between stowed and deployed positions. In embodiments, the motion path element may be implemented as at least one of a helical shaft, helical slot, and helical ramp. The motion path combines rotational and vertical motion such that an angular change of the table caused by rotational movement simultaneously causes an elevation change of the tray table. In some embodiments, the tray table may lower when rotated toward the deployed position and raise when rotated toward the stowed position.
摘要:
An articulation mechanism for coupling a pivoting backrest to a traveling seat pan frame includes a first link having a first end section attachable to a pivoting backrest, and a second end section connected to the first end section, the second end section having multiple holes. A second link has a first end section and a second end section connected together, the first end section of the second link having at least one hole aligned with one of the multiple holes of the second section of the first link, the second end section of the second link is pivotally attachable to a seat pan frame. A fastener pivotally attaches the second link to the first link via the at least one hole of the second link and the selected aligned one of the multiple holes of the second end section of the first link based on a hole combination chosen to achieve a predetermined ratio of backrest recline to seat pan travel.
摘要:
A seat layout (100) for business class in an aircraft. The layout includes a first row (102) of seats (104, 106) that are angled toward a centerline (108), and a second row (114) positioned directly behind the first row of seats, the second row including seats (116, 118) that are laterally adjacent and parallel to the centerline. Each seat (104, 106, 116, 118) includes a console (110, 112, 120, 122) positioned to one side of the respective seat, wherein the consoles of the first row form footwells (126, 128) for the seats of the second row. The seats in the second row are grouped to form a sharable space for passengers traveling together. The disclosure further provides a seat layout (300) for a widebody aircraft including a sharable space positioned at the aft end of the center column.
摘要:
A triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) is described. The TPMS is adjustable and tunable depending on desired breathability, vibration performance, weight reduction, pressure distribution, and the like. The TPMS may be used in a cushion of a passenger seat. The cushion may be used for one or more locations of the passenger seat, including a head rest cushion, a back rest cushion, a seat pan cushion, and the like. the TPMS may include a cylindrical gyroid. Each of the cushions may include multiple of the cylindrical gyroids.
摘要:
A passenger seat assembly for permitting adjustment of the spacing of a passenger seat row relative to a fore or aft passenger seat row that includes first and second seat tracks for being positioned on the deck of an aircraft and extended along a longitudinal axis of an aircraft passenger area of the aircraft. Seat legs support a seat bottom and seat back of a plurality of seats in the seat row. First and second slides are provided for being affixed to respective ones of the first and second tracks. The first and second pairs of seat legs are adapted for being mounted on the slides and positioned for sliding movement on the tracks. First and second drive assemblies are provided for being positioned intermediate the seats and tracks and adapted to move the seats carried by the seat legs fore and aft in the tracks.
