AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Conventional tray table deployment and stowage solutions, particularly those mounted under desks, consume valuable living space and interfere with seat adjustments, especially in passenger seat configurations requiring horizontal bed functionality.

Method used

A tray table system that combines rotational and vertical motion, utilizing a helical shaft or ramp, allowing simultaneous elevation and angular changes to maintain the tray table horizontal throughout its motion path, thereby optimizing space utilization and seat adjustment.

Benefits of technology

The combined motion path ensures the tray table remains horizontal, preserving space and enabling seamless transitions between stowed and deployed positions without obstructing seat functions.
