Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for locking a seat belt with respect to a fixed base frame to prevent movement of a movable seat portion in the event of a crash or crash-like condition on an aircraft.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide adjustable or convertible seats for use in aircraft and other passenger transport vehicles. The seats are designed to use non-parallel slides and a single actuator for certain movements of the seat.

Abstract: The seat comprises means for controlling movement of the seating plate (7) between a first extreme position (A) adapted to for small passengers, a second extreme position (B) adapted to tall passengers so that in all the positions, the distance d1, d2, d3 between the seatback (6) and the front edge (7a) of the seating plate (7) corresponds to the distance between the base of the back and the hollow portion of the knee of the passengers, and simultaneously the distance (a1, a2, a3) between the front edge (7a) of the seat plate and the floor (5) corresponds to the distance between the hollow portion of the knee and the sole of the foot of the passengers

Abstract: The present device is directed to a leg rest for a seat, such as an aircraft seat, and includes a body having a generally flat support surface, a pivoting mechanism for mounting the body so as to pivot about a front edge of the seat squab so that the surface of the seat squab and the support surface of the body form a dihedron with variable angles. The leg rest further includes an extension mechanism that moves from a retracted position to various unfolded positions in order to adjustably extend the body of the leg rest on its side opposite to the pivoting mechanism, a roller shutter and a guidance mechanism for deploying the roller shutter when the extension mechanism is unfolded so that the roller shutter comes in line with the support surface of the body of the leg rest.
