Abstract: An administration server configured to define an ecommerce marketplace accessible via the Internet by means of a marketplace GUI. Also included is a seller database configured to maintain a plurality of seller profiles each assigned to a seller, each including a virtual seller shop within the ecommerce marketplace for listing goods and/or services provided by, and available from, a particular seller. Also included is a goods and/or services database configured to maintain a record of goods and/or services provided by a particular seller across the marketplace, and a payment facility configured to accept online payment from a buyer for goods and/or services purchased from a particular seller shop. Each seller profile allows selective listing of goods and/or services provided by another seller as part of goods and/or services available from that particular seller's shop, so that goods and/or services provided by one seller is available from other sellers.

Abstract: A vehicle seat including: a seat back; a seat pan; and one or more side support elements is disclosed. Each side support element is moveable with respect to the seat back between: a stowed configuration, in which the side support element is stowed flush with, or is stowed within or behind the seat back; and a deployed configuration, in which the side support element extends outwardly from the seat back, generally in the same direction that the seat back faces, so as to offer support to the side of a vehicle user sitting in the vehicle seat. A row of two or more such vehicles seats is also disclosed, in which all of the seats of the row face in the same direction, and adjacent seats within the row are connected to each other.

Abstract: A passenger seat assembly includes a seat support and an immobile seat shell mounted on the seat support. The seat shell can include a bench and a backrest. The bench includes a forward edge, an aft edge, and a top surface extending between the forward edge and the aft edge. The backrest can be connected to the aft edge of the bench and can extend in an upward direction from the top surface of the bench. In some cases, the backrest includes an upright portion connected to the bench and angled at a first angle with respect to the top surface of the bench, and a resting portion connected to the bench and angled at a second angle with respect to the top surface of the bench.

Abstract: Passenger accommodation systems are described. An example passenger accommodation system can be disposed in an aircraft and can include a passenger seating deck, a plurality of passenger seats disposed within the passenger seating deck, and a partition wall disposed within the passenger seating deck so as to separate the plurality of passenger seats into a first set of passenger seats and a second set of passenger seats. The partition wall can be aligned with a longitudinal axis extending in the direction of travel of the aircraft. Movement of passengers between the first set of seats and the second set of seats may not impeded by the partition wall.

Abstract: Embodiments of systems, devices, and methods are described that relate to module structures for use in forming a cabin interior of an aircraft. Many embodiments relate to a support structure including a lattice configurable to provide a standardizable frame for connection to the interior of the aircraft and to provide a space within the frame in which module fixtures can be positioned and secured to the frame. Embodiments of the support structure can include a floor with a number of structures and devices that can be used to provide support for the module and secure the module to the floor of the aircraft fuselage. Embodiments of transport systems for the modules are also described and such can be integrated with the floor of the module such that the modules transport mechanism, or a significant portion thereof, is contained within the module itself.
