Abstract

The invention relates to a translating, locking and rotating leg rest mechanism, and particularly to a foot and leg rest deployment mechanism which prevents the leg rest from rotating into an upright, deployed orientation until fully translated. Likewise, the deployment mechanism prevents the leg rest from translating while in an upright orientation. A rotation arm with a rotation locking channel prevents rotation until a locking arm is disengaged from the rotation locking channel via the locking arm engaging a translation locking portion of a translation channel. A single, linear actuator applies a force to cause both translation and rotation where the leg rest deployment mechanism controls the order of steps of deployment.

Description

Background technique [0001] Foot and leg rest systems in aircraft seats are complex to implement because space and weight constraints make conventional systems unsuitable. For automatic / electronic systems, multiple actuators and complex control systems are required. Contents of the invention [0002] In one aspect, embodiments of the inventive concepts disclosed herein are directed to a foot and leg rest deployment mechanism that prevents the leg rest from rotating into an upright deployed orientation until fully translated. Also, the deployment mechanism prevents translation of the leg rest when in the upright orientation. [0003] In a further aspect, a single linear actuator applies force to cause both translation and rotation, with the leg rest deployment mechanism controlling the sequence of deployment steps. [0004] It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not...
