Embodiment Construction

[0250] The preferred embodiment of the claimed invention provides a lightweight aircraft passenger seat assembly 1 comprising: three seat portions 4 each having a seat shell 40 for an aircraft passenger; and a support portion 2, 3, for supporting the three seat sections 4 relative to the aircraft structure. Although the seat assembly 1 has been described as a three-seat seat assembly, the invention extends to any practical seating configuration, such as a double seat, a four-seat seat, a single seat or configured as Seats for any number of passengers. As will be described below, the supports 2, 3 and the three seat shells 40 are constructed as lightweight components using fiber-reinforced composite materials. The supporting part 2 , 3 of the preferred embodiment comprises two leg parts 2 and a frame part 3 . Thus, the light aircraft passenger seat assembly 1 consists of three main components, namely the leg portion 2 , the frame portion 3 and the seat portion 4 . Two leg pa...

Abstract

The invention relates to a lightweight aircraft passenger seat assembly, comprising at least one seat portion and at least one supporting portion for supporting the at least one seat portion relative to an aircraft structure. In order to provide an improved lightweight aircraft passenger seat assembly having a reduced weight, size and complexity as compared to conventional lightweight passenger seat designs, the invention provides a lightweight aircraft passenger seat assembly, comprising at least one seat portion with at least one seat shell for an aircraft passenger and at least one supporting portion for supporting the at least one seat portion relative to an aircraft structure, wherein the at least one seat shell and the at least one supporting portion are constructed as lightweight components.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a lightweight aircraft passenger seat assembly comprising at least one seat portion and at least one support portion for supporting the at least one seat portion relative to an aircraft structure. Background technique [0002] Conventional aircraft passenger seat assemblies often include a support structure with two beams extending in the transverse direction of the aircraft and supported by outriggers, wherein the armrest suspension and the passenger seat are alternately attached along the two beams to form a An aircraft passenger seat assembly having a plurality of seats. Conventional aircraft passenger seat assemblies add significantly to the overall weight of the aircraft since the legs, beams, suspension and frame of the seat are often made of heavy metal components and respectively limit the total passenger capacity of commercial aircraft volume and profitability. [0003] The need for lightweight aircraft passe...
