  • Patent number: 8020936
    Abstract: An aircraft seat which can receive the load of a sitting person with only a back plate member, using no seat back frame, thus eliminating the need for sacrificing the sitting space, which results from the existence of the seat back frame, and at the same time, allowing the weight of the seat to be reduced, is provided. The aircraft seat (1) on which an aircraft passenger is to sit comprises a seat back (10) made up of a back plate member (11) that a cushion (12) is installed onto a front face (11a) thereof for receiving the back of a sitting person, and a reinforcing member (13) which is disposed on the rear face (11b) of the back plate member (11) for reinforcing the back plate member (11), and said back plate member (11) is formed in the shape of a curved surface which enhances the surface rigidity.
