  • Patent number: 11655033
    Abstract: The present invention generally relates to bed structures having an inflatable and/or collapsible/deflatable component. More particularly, it relates to bed construction configurations that can include multiple adaptations for enhanced safety in situations of rapid loss of aircraft cabin pressure to meet airflow requirements for emergency decompression events as well as to provide overall better airflow for in-cabin air filtration systems. The bed configurations can include cross-welded structures and bowing-prevention stabilizers to control bulging of the bed when inflated.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20200164779
    Abstract: The present invention includes a rotating driver or passenger seat adjacent to a front dash of a car, truck, van or similar automotive vehicle having a first set/row of car seats facing forward in the position where a driver and passenger would typically sit and a second row of car seats (or a bench type) immediately behind the backs of the first row of car seats. The driver and/or passenger as seat of the first row of car seats can be adapted to rotate substantially 180 degrees and optionally be moved apart from the second row of car seats, thereby providing face-to-face interaction between the occupants of front row car seat and an occupant of the second row of car seats. Further, the face-to-face car seats are transformed into a horizontal bed surface adapted to provide a user with a flat surface upon which a user may lie on their back, side or stomach.

  • Patent number: 7845718
    Abstract: The present invention is a device which quickly and inexpensively transforms two, face to face aircraft passenger seats into a horizontal bed surface adapted to provide a user with a flat surface upon which a user may lie on their back, side or stomach. A collapsible foundation block is adapted to form a space filling function as to a space between two face to face seats that are secured to a floor structure forming a horizontal surface. The foundation block is preferably inflatable and is supported from a floor surface between the two face to face seats, whereafter a supporting structure of the foundation block rises to a top surface generally parallel to the floor. The elevation of the top surface is approximately a level of a top surface of seat cushions of the two facing seats.
