Abstract: A recliner seat assembly for a passenger vehicle. The recliner seat assembly includes a fixed supporting portion for supporting the assembly off a floor of the vehicle, a reclinable seat portion having a seat-pan and a back-rest, and a seat connecting device adapted for connecting the seat portion to the supporting portion. The connecting device includes a seat reclining mechanism adapted for allowing and controlling translational movement of the seat portion relative to the supporting portion between a first upright position and a second fully reclined position. The connecting device further includes a selectively operable, bi-directional motor adapted for driving the seat portion between the first and second positions. The seat reclining mechanism includes a guiding device for reclining the back-rest progressively rearwardly relative to the supporting portion as the seat portion is moved from the first upright position to the second fully reclined position.

Abstract: A mobile terminal includes a connector to moveably connect a first body to a second body and a controller to change information displayed on a screen based on movement of the second body relative to the first body. The connector allows the second body to move along a first axis relative to the first body and along a second axis that crosses the first axis relative to the first body.

Abstract: A mobile terminal includes a body including a flexible portion, a display unit provided to the body, a sensing unit provided to the body and generating an electric signal in response to bending of the body, and a controller recognizing the electric signal and controlling the display unit according to the electric signal generated by the bending of the body.

Abstract: It is presented a method for providing a user interface of a portable electronic apparatus. The method comprises: detecting an actuation of a mode switch actuator associated with switching operational modes of the apparatus; determining a switching direction by determining whether the actuation is associated with a first switching direction or a second switching direction; determining a current operational mode; determining a new operational mode considering the switching direction and the current operational mode; and switching operational modes of the portable electronic apparatus from the current operational mode to the new operational mode. Corresponding portable electronic apparatuses and computer program product are also presented.

Abstract: A seat module for a passenger vehicle is disclosed. The seat module includes a seat portion, a foot-rest portion, and a unitary supporting structure for supporting the seat portion and the foot-rest portion off the floor of the vehicle. Two spaced fixings are provided for fixing the supporting structure to one of a pair of seat tracks in a floor of the vehicle at two spaced points. A third fixing is provided for fixing the supporting structure to the other track, to thereby provide a 3-point fixing between the seat module and the seat tracks for attaching the supporting structure to the pair of seat tracks. A plurality of the seat modules can be attached to a pair of seat tracks, one adjacent another, thereby to form a plurality of seat units. Each seat unit includes the seat portion of one module and the foot-rest portion of another, adjacent module.

Abstract: A passenger seat assembly for a vehicle, particularly an aircraft, which is adapted to provide self-contained, individual seating and sleeping accommodation for a passenger, said seat assembly comprising: supporting structure (42) for supporting said assembly off the floor of a vehicle; one or more movable passenger-bearing, structural components (71,72); and means for connecting said movable, structural components to said structure such that said components can be selectively moved between a seat configuration, in which a plurality of passenger-bearing surfaces on said one or more structural, movable components (71,71) or said supporting structure form a seat for the passenger, and a bed configuration, in which a plurality of said bearing surfaces (47,48,67,74,76) are disposed substantially coplanarly and substantially contiguously to form a bed for the passenger; characterised in that at least one of said movable components (72) is double-sided, comprising first and second opposite sides, one of said sides
