Abstract: A vertical seat blocking/divider device includes a seat back connector and a seat cushion connector. The vertical seat blocking/divider device is disposed on the center of an aircraft seat to block occupancy of the aircraft seat and establish a barrier between neighboring seats. In a further aspect, the vertical seat blocking/divider device includes a spring element to apply a force to the fabric of the seat blocking/divider device. In a further aspect, the vertical seat blocking/divider device may include armrest connectors on opposing surfaces so that the vertical seat blocking/divider device can be disposed between occupied seats to create a barrier between passengers.

Abstract: An armrest assembly for a seat including a static frame member, an armrest pivotally attached at one end to the static frame member, and an armrest pivot guard pivotally attached at one end to the armrest or the static frame member. The armrest pivot guard moves with armrest motion to conceal and/or maintain coverage of a pinch point near an attachment point of the armrest to the static frame member.

Abstract: A seat mounting assembly including a swingarm configured for attachment to spaced-apart floor tracks, and a plinth having a seat mounted thereon mounted on the swingarm such that the swingarm is configured to deflect in a direction away from the plinth in response to floor deformation. An assembly for mounting a suite-style seat supported on a plinth to spaced floor tracks to isolate the plinth from floor deformation.

Abstract: A seat back diaphragm with a quick replacement bolster for a vehicle passenger seat which comprises a seat back diaphragm formed of a tubular fabric panel for being placed over a seat back frame of the seat, and a pair of seat back bolsters for being positioned overlying the seat back frame. The bolster includes a long zipper for releasably attaching the bolster to the diaphragm and quickly detaching the bolster from the diaphragm for replacement.

Abstract: A replaceable seat back diaphragm for a vehicle passenger seat, comprising a fabric panel having opposing top and bottom edges and opposing first and second side edges with complementary fasteners carried by the first and second side edges and cooperating with each other in a fastened position to form the fabric panel into a tensioned, tubular seat back diaphragm around a seat back frame of the passenger seat.
