摘要: An armrest is disclosed that includes an armrest subframe configured to couple to an arm of the seat that includes a slot within a face of the armrest subframe configured to receive a stop pin. The armrest further includes an arm pad translatably coupled to the armrest subframe and includes a plurality of grooves formed on one edge of the armrest subframe. The arm pad further includes the stop pin that restricts the translation of the arm pad and a spring anchor. The armrest further includes a lever rotationally coupled to the armrest that includes a locking pin configured to engage one or more grooves of the plurality of grooves, and an actuating end, wherein a movement of the actuating end at least one of engages or disengages the locking pin from the one or more grooves of the plurality of grooves. The armrest further includes a biasing spring.

摘要: A method for sensor-based ejection of an aircraft occupant from an aircraft may comprise: receiving, via a processor and through a sensor, an ejection command from the aircraft occupant; comparing, via the processor, the ejection command to a predetermined ejection command; determine, via the processor, whether the ejection command matches the predetermined ejection command; and commanding, via the processor, initiation of an ejection event in response to the ejection command matching the predetermined ejection command.

摘要: Disclosed is an armrest assembly for a vehicle seat such as a pilot seat positioned in an aircraft cockpit. The armrest assembly generally includes a pivoting armrest and an arm pad repositionable relative to the armrest to change the arm pad width. The arm pad includes two functional sides each having a different width dimension. The arm pad is coupled to the armrest such that sequential translational and rotational motion of the arm pad moves one of the first and second sides into a use position atop the armrest and the other of the first and second sides into an out of use position alongside the armrest. The armrest assembly according to the present disclosure is ideal for use in tight quarters within the flight deck, among other installation environments requiring a functional armrest.

摘要: A rocket catapult assembly for an ejection seat may comprise a motor assembly including a proximal end and a distal end, a first cartridge, and a second cartridge. The first cartridge and the second cartridge may be configured to provide a variable thrust based on an occupant's weight. The first cartridge may provide a thrust corresponding to a relatively light weight occupant, the second cartridge may provide a thrust corresponding to a relatively average weight occupant, and the first cartridge and second cartridge may provide a combined thrust corresponding to a relatively heavy weight occupant.

摘要: A system for controlling an aircraft in response to deployment of an ejection seat may comprise a seat controller located on the ejection seat and configured to output a signal in response to initiation of an ejection sequence. An aircraft controller may be configured to receive the signal from the seat controller. A tangible, non-transitory memory may be configured to communicate with the aircraft controller. The tangible, non-transitory memory may have instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the aircraft controller, cause the aircraft controller to perform operations, which may comprise receiving the signal from the seat controller, receiving data signals from an operational data source, and sending command signals configured to control a component of the aircraft

摘要: An anti-recoil assembly may include a housing, a shaft, and an energy attenuator. The housing generally defines a cavity, with the housing having a first end portion and a second end portion, according to various embodiments. The shaft may be at least partially disposed within the cavity, and the shaft may be configured to move within the cavity in a first direction from the first end portion to the second end portion. In various embodiments, the energy attenuator is disposed within the cavity at the second end portion. In response to movement of the shaft in the first direction, the energy attenuator is configured to inhibit the shaft from recoiling in a second direction opposite the first direction, according to various embodiments.
