Abstract: Provided is an improved reclining mechanism for an aircraft passenger seat. An aircraft passenger seat (100) is provided with a seat bottom frame (152) which constitutes a seat surface, and a seat back frame (162) which constitutes a back rest, wherein cam followers (240, 242) provided on both sides of the seat back frame (162) slide within cam grooves (132) on spreaders (130) supporting both sides of a seat mechanism. When an actuator (200) expands and pivots a link arm (230) in the direction of an arrow R1 to cause the seat back frame (162) to start reclining, a link plate (270) extends in the direction of an arrow F1, and pivots a head rest frame (172) in the ? direction. This operation prevents the line of sight of the passenger from being deviated from a video device provided on a back of a front seat.

Abstract: A storage unit (100) has a storage box (110) and a base frame (130) which is removably mounted to the storage box. A hinge (160) is provided to a hinge mounting section (140) of the base frame (130) and supports a lid (150) so that the lid can be opened and closed. The hinge (160) is composed of two inner arms (170) and outer arms (180). A rotation shaft of the hinge is guarded by the inner arms (170) and outer arms (180), so that objects and fingers are prevented from being caught.

Abstract: A sheet material (30) is constituted by an FBL to which one surface (36a) of a fire-retardant urethane material (36) is melted and fused and an outer cover (34) to which the other surface (36b) of the fire-retardant urethane material (36) is melted and fused.

Abstract: An aircraft passenger seat (100) is fixed to a floor via a seat track fitting (110), and a reclining assembly of the seat is supported by pipes (130, 132) passed through left and right legs (120) and spreaders (170). A linear actuator (300) operates a reclining motion. A curved arm for deformation is provided to a mount (320) on which the actuator (300) is mounted, and a slit (145) is provided in a link plate (140) to which a rod is connected, and in a state where a forward force F is applied, the curved arm deforms and absorbs the impact. An impact absorbing structure is also provided to the legs (120).

Abstract: Provided is a structure for receiving a galley unit for an aircraft, including a receiving space formed above a ceiling of an aircraft body, and a lifting mechanism lifting and lowering a load between the receiving space and a galley body, wherein the galley body includes a work table and a rack mounted to the work table, the lifting mechanism is mounted to the rack, and the lifting mechanism is configured so that a lifting and lowering operation of the load is performed within a projected area of an upper surface of the work table.

Abstract: A lavatory unit (100) disposed in a passenger cabin of an aircraft has a box-shaped main body (105) configured from panels. A bottom of the main body (105) has a rectangular shape formed with short sides and long sides, and a door is provided on one short side. A toilet unit (110) is installed on the other slut side opposite the door. A foldable sink (200) is mounted above the toilet unit (110). Since the sink, which would typically have been provided on a panel on the long-side, is made foldable and mounted above the toilet unit, the width (W2) of the lavatory unit can be reduced.

Abstract: An aircraft passenger seat (100) has a seat bottom frame (150), and the seat bottom frame (150) is supported by an eccentric cam (210). A seat back frame (170) which rotates about a support point (250) is provided with a damper mechanism (300). When the seat back frame (170) is tilted forward from an upright position about the support point (250), a gas damper (310) is compressed and prevents rapid tilting. This energy assists force for returning the seat back to the upright position. The eccentric cam (210) rotates and lowers the seat bottom frame (150) so as to prevent cushions from being collapsed. A lock mechanism (400) highly rigidly retains the seat back frame at a bed mode position.

Abstract: Provided is an improved reclining mechanism for an aircraft passenger seat. An aircraft passenger seat (100) is provided with a seat bottom frame (152) which constitutes a seat surface, and a seat back frame (162) which constitutes a back rest, wherein cam followers (240, 242) provided on both sides of the seat back frame (162) slide within cam grooves (132) on spreaders (130) supporting both sides of a seat mechanism. When an actuator (200) expands and pivots a link arm (230) in the direction of an arrow R1 to cause the seat back frame (162) to start reclining, a link plate (270) extends in the direction of an arrow F1, and pivots a head rest frame (172) in the ? direction. This operation prevents the line of sight of the passenger from being deviated from a video device provided on a back of a front seat.

Abstract: A divider unit (100) for a passenger seat has a slide rail (120) that is fixed onto a side shell (12) surrounding the seat. A plate-like divider (150) is equipped with two linear guides (170) inserted in the slide rail (120) and slides within the slide rail (120). A stopper (130) attached to a front end of the slide rail (120) has a tapered surface (132), and the divider (150) is stopped when a front end of the divider (150) rides over the tapered surface (132), thereby preventing generation of collision noise.
