[0002] In times of pandemics, contamination of surfaces with pathogenic microorganisms (such as viruses or bacteria) Disinfection of frequently touched surfaces, such as surfaces inside aircraft, is of utmost importance. Disinfecting body parts to curb the pandemic without disrupting international trade and travel Pathogenic microorganisms can remain active on surfaces for many days. This allows for rapid spread of infection. These include Ebola virus, Nipah virus, Salmonella typhi, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Localized outbreaks of epidemics such as COVID-19 are more likely to occur through air travel. There is a high probability of national or international spread in such outbreaks. As a result, air travel has been severely restricted, causing social and economic damage to countries. do.

Each of the armrests 114a and 114b has a pocket (for example, pocket 116), a tray (e.g., tray 118) and a top cover (e.g., top cover 12 If the tray is enclosed within a pocket, the pocket is configured to accommodate the tray. The top cover can be configured to cover the pocket. The tray can be in an open or closed state. In the open state, the tray has at least It is partially located outside the pocket, and completely inside the pocket when closed. In seat 102a, the tray 118 is in an open state, and in seat 102b, the tray is in a closed state. and covered by a top cover 120, as will be described in more detail below in connection with FIG. be.

[0014] The seat 104a may include a back surface. The back surface may include a frame (for example, frame 1). 22) can be attached. In addition, a tray (e.g., tray 124a or tray 124b) can be operatively connected to at least the first two corners of the frame, and the connections As a result, the tray is rotatable about a pivot axis (not shown in FIG. 1). The tray can be in an unlocked state, and in the unlocked state the tray Alternatively, the tray can be locked and In the locked state, the tray makes an angle equal to zero with respect to the frame. The tray is in full contact with the frame. Furthermore, a latch (not shown in Figure 1) is provided to For this purpose, the tray may be fitted with a latch in a locked position. The lock may have a recess, cavity or protrusion that can be engaged in the locking state. In the released state, the latch can disengage from the tray. tray 124b is in the unlocked state and tray 124b is in the locked state. This is further explained in relation to FIG. As will be explained later.
