Abstract: A spring-based seat diaphragm may include at least one support diaphragm component. The at least one support diaphragm component may be transversely coupled to the first structural beam and the second structural beam. The spring-based seat diaphragm may include at least one spring. The at least one spring may be proximate to the at least one support diaphragm component. The at least one spring may be parallel to or positioned transverse to the at least one support diaphragm component between the first primary spreader and the second primary spreader. The at least one spring may include a plurality of bends configured to distribute user weight applied to a cushion installed on the aircraft seat over the spring-based seat diaphragm. The spring-based seat diaphragm may be configured to support an aft portion of the cushion. The first structural beam may be configured to support a forward portion of the cushion.

Abstract: A system may include a surface, a pocket member, and spring members. The pocket member may have a top portion, a bottom portion, an exterior side, and an interior side. Each spring member may be positioned vertically between the surface and the interior side of the pocket member. Each spring member may have a spring top portion and a spring bottom portion. Each of the spring top portions may be attached to the top portion of the pocket member. Each of the spring bottom portions may be attached to the surface at a location corresponding to a vertical position of the bottom portion of the pocket member. The surface, the pocket member, and the spring members may form a pocket configured to at a given time be one of: open at the top portion of the pocket member, open at the bottom portion of the pocket member, or closed.
