593064 玖、發明說明 (發明說明應敘明:發明所屬之技術領域、先前技術、内容、實施方式及圖式簡單說明) I:發明戶斤屬之技術領域3 發明領域 本發明係有關於一種用於乘客载具,尤指飛機,的新 5 穎座位系統。本發明同時係有關於一種載具用乘客容納單 元’該容納單元係適用以提供個別的、自備的座位及睡眠 的乘客設施。本發明之容納單元係可使用在任一乘客載具 ,包括公車、巴士、渡輪以及火車車廂,但其係特別地適 於使用在飛機上。本發明同時包括對載具用,尤指飛機, 10 乘客座位或是與其相關的改良。 C先前技術3 發明背景 15 20 一種傳統式飛機用之乘客座位其係包括一背靠以及一 座位底盤其係藉由一適當的支撐結構受支撐而離開載具之 地板,該支撐結構係固定在地板上的一對座位執道上。當 使用座位之乘客透視觀視時,座位係形成一抽象的座位縱 軸,並且於飛機之機身内的客艙中複數之該等座位係用以 成列地配置,每一列係橫向地延伸橫過客艙,一個接著一 個之後,每—餘之抽㈣絲歡體上係與機身之縱軸 對正’以致母—座位係面向前。通常,於飛行期間,座位 之月#月^夠自-直立的位置後仰至使用座位乘客感到舒適 的一後仰位置。-些先前技術的乘客座位,特別針對飛機 之商務餘及頭等驗内所用的座位,其中相鄰列之座位門的 間距係較經濟餘中之座位為大,同包含有-腿靠(Ieg.咖) 7 593064 玖、發明說明 /、係以叙接至座位底盤的前方’並能夠在一下或儲藏位置 ,其中腿靠係自座位底盤懸垂而下大體上係垂直地朝向地 板’以及-升高或展開的位置,其中腿靠自座位底盤向前 伸展用以承受乘客離開地面之腿部,之間移動。因此,傳 •先式爪枝乘客座位藉由將背靠後仰並在有配裝腿靠的狀況 下將腿靠升高’而使乘客能夠獲得相當的舒適度。 儘官上述傳統的飛機乘客座位西己£,大體上對於持續 三至四小時之短程運輸而言係符合要求的,但對於乘客: 型地希望能夠睡眠的較長飛行而言係無法符合要求。即使 1〇在上述的後仰位置,使用座位的乘客依然保持-般的坐姿 。多數的乘客覺得當坐著時根本難以有舒適的睡眠。近年 來疋期地搭乘長程航班的乘客人數顯著地增加,因而在業 界傾向於所設計的乘客座位能夠讓乘客在飛行期間採用進 一f的後仰位置以有助於睡眠。這對進行商務旅程的乘客 而口係特別重要,因其在抵達目的地係需感覺精神恢復並 且機敏的。 20 業界已揭露針對增加飛機乘客座位能夠後仰之程度的 、可月b ι±其’、不過包含伸展背靠所能向後地後仰的程度 並且將腿靠升高。使用該技術,當背靠後仰且腿靠升高時 伸展至極限其係能夠形成—大體上為平坦的床,每次伸展 至該-狀況時其大體上係配置成與座位底盤彼此為共平面 的。該-系統的—缺點在於,鄰接列座位之間的間距大體 上必需增加用以容納乘客的最大高度。儘管此狀況有時係 發生在飛機之頭諸區域,但是對於商雜大體上係不缓 8 593064 玖、發明說明 从白、°再者,儘管能夠形成_大體上水平地配置的平坦表 面仁疋4表面仍不理想,因為在座位上的發泡材或其他 的墊塞-般係經造型使用作為—座位,然而針對床而言, 係需要具有—大體上為平坦的表面。 10 15 在德國專利GB23助4A中揭露一種用於飛機頭等搶 的座位單元,其係包括一辅助座位係配置面向一主要座位 丄輔助座位具有_座位部分係配置與主要座位之一腿靠配 合,在主要座位之背靠係後仰至一水平的位置時,用以構 成連々、平坦的供睡覺用之表面。座位單元界定一抽象 勺座位縱轴,並且複數之該座位單元係相關於每—座位之 縱軸以、縱向偏矛多的關係、,可並列地配置在客驗中,每一座 位單元的方向係與飛機機身之縱軸成一銳角,俾便在每一 座位單元之前方或後方形成一大體上為三角形或梯形的空 間(根據座位單元係相對於客艙面向外抑或是面向内而定) 。该空間係用w容納工作檯面(c〇unter_t〇p)至一相鄰座位 單元之側,並可任擇地係為一食櫥或是其他的儲存空間 。德國專利GB2326824 A的優點在於,在一連同主要座位 之背靠、座位部分及腿靠的平坦睡眠表面中結合一附加、 辅助的座位,其能夠形成一長的睡眠表面,該表面能夠提 供身高高於6呎(1.83公尺)的乘客舒適的服務。然而,德國 專利GB2326824 A之座位單元與上述的傳統式系統相較就 客艙空間而言提供甚至較高的間接費用,此外,仍具有之 缺點在於,座墊主要係設計作為座位使用而非作為床舖。 德國專利GB2326824 A之座位的一缺點在於,佔用了客搶 9 20 593064 玖、發明說明 中極大的地板面積,鑑於其之整體長度,德國專利 GB2326824 A之座位單元完全地不適合用在飛機的商務艙。 世界專利WO 00/21831 A2號中揭露一種座位單元,其 主要係使用在飛機客艙的商務艙部份,能夠將座位單元轉 換成一床位。世界專利W0 00/21831 A2號之座位單元包括 一對相對面向的座位,每一座位包含一供乘座者身體所用 之座位空間,以及一供乘座者放置腿部的一伸展空間。所 配置之座位讓一抽象的分隔軸之每一側邊將一座位空間伸 展超越該軸進入另一座位的伸展空間。當安裝在飛機客艙 10中8可,其中之一座位大體上係面向前,而其他的座位大體 上係面向後。世界專利W〇 〇〇/21831 A2號之座位單元的每 一座位包含一主要的座位,其大體上係與上述德國專利 GB2326824 A之主要的座位相同但不具有_腿靠,以及一 15 20 辅助單元係與主要座位之#方„。每—座位因而包括一 主要座位,其具有一可後仰的背靠及座位底盤,以及一辅 助單兀係包含一升高墊其係使用作為一擱腳部分 rest)。主要座位係可後仰,以致當背靠後仰時,座位底盤 向前移動而與輔助單元接觸,用以於其間構成—連續表: ,將該表面使用作為-乘客所用的睡眠表面。與德國專利 GB2326824 A相較,世界專利w〇 〇〇/2i83i A2號之座位單 元因而具有在長距離飛行期間提供乘客一大體上水平的睡 :表面的優點。然而,世界專利w〇〇〇/2183i Μ號之座位 早兀就於一典型的商務艙中可用的空間而言係為浪費的, 並且當裝配為床舖時其之缺點在於,每一座位無法讓身材 10 玖、發明說明 高大的乘客得到舒適的服務。與上述先前技術之座位相較 ’世界專利W0 00/2183 1 A2號之座位單元的每一座位同時 具有其之座位坐墊並非特別針對使用作為睡眠表面而設計 ,其輪廓裝配主要係針對座位表面的用途的缺點。 於飛機頭等艙中所使用之乘客座位的另一特性係為寬 大的座位寬度。與世界專利WO 00/21831 A2號之座位單元 相關的進一步缺點在於為了在商務艙中容納最大的總人數 ,所以將座位寬度減小,讓多數的乘客覺得不舒適。儘管 世界專利WO 00/21831 A2號之座位單元,針對飛行過程中 的乘客提供大體上平坦的睡眠表面係為公認優秀的優點, 但是其之整體尺寸讓身高及/或體重高於平均值的乘客覺 付座位稍嫌狹窄。再者,隱私隔板係配置在相鄰的座位單 元之間,再加上於商務艙受限的空間甲配置的座位單元總 數’導致客艙整體上具有稍嫌擁擠的景象。 法國專利987559 A號中揭露一種大眾運輸載具,諸如 電動車、公車以及相似車輛,所用的座位裝置,其係包括 成列的座位,每一座位包括一支撐結構用於支撐離開載具 地板的座位、一座位底盤以及一背靠。在二相鄰列座位之 間形成-走道。與走道相鄰的其中之一座位的座位底盤, 其係可在與走道鄰接的三座位支撐結構之間,以—颠倒的 方向移開並吊起,用以在走道中構成一附加的座位。一座 位之背靠因而能夠向前地搖動進入先前由座位底盤所佔用 之空間’用以提供該-座位一個替換的座位底盤。一座位 之背靠於是具有前及後表面,其二者係可使用作為部分的 593064 坎、發明說明 座位。整列的座位係可任擇地能夠支撐一床墊用以構成一 坐臥兩用的座位。然而,法國專利987559 a號之裝置並不 適合使用在客機上,因為客機走道必需隨時保持暢通無阻 ’再者,複數之相鄰的座位係用以針對一單一的坐臥兩用 5的座位提供支撐。因此法國專利987559 A號之裝置並不能 夠對每一座位提供一坐臥兩用的座位。 曰本專利JP 5-13838 A號中揭露一種諸如巴士及火車 之載具用座位系統,其係包含複數之座位。每一座位包含 一座位底盤以及一背靠能夠在一直立位置與一後仰位置之 1〇間搖動,並且座位係配置在客艙中,相關於客搶之中心線 成角度並面向外,用以在每一座位與客艙之一壁之間形 成-大體上為三角形的空間。該空間容納一箱+,其係包 含一供相鄰座位所用的擱腳部分。 15 20 法國專利647809錢中揭露_種臥舖車用的座位系統 ,其中複數之座位係配置與臥舖車之縱軸成_肖度,並係 面向内用以在每一座位之背後形成一大體上為三角形:;空 間,係用以容納一供相鄰座位所用的小桌子。 發明概要 因此本丧明之-目的係提供客機之商務驗用改良的客 搶。特別地,本發明之一目的係提供該客搶,其係結合一 具有最大長度’並且較佳地同時具有最大寬度之平坦的睡 眠表面。 本發明之-目的係提供一種改良的载具用乘客容納單 12 玖、發明說明 兀,特別係針對飛機,該容納單元係用以提供乘客用之自 備、個別的座位與睡眠客搶,特別係用在飛機之商務舱, 其中相鄰列座位之間的間距,典型地係位在50_60吋(127 至1.52公尺)的範圍内。 本發明之另一目的係提供一種乘客容納單元,其係可 轉換成-具有最大長度的床舖’用以容納身材高大的乘客 ,特別是那些身高高於6呎的乘客〇·83公尺)。 本發明之另-目的係提供一種具有—座位表面的载且 用乘客容納單元,其係特別地使用作為一座位表面與—床 10舖表面,並係特別地使用作為一床舖表面。 15 20 本發明之一不同的目的係所提供之乘客容納單元能夠 轉換成$舖並且當裝配為一座位時能夠對提昇或對第1 客艙的氣氛有所貢獻,當裝配為一床舖時能夠對提昇或對 第-、不同的客艙氣氛有所貢獻。因此,本發明之另—目 的係提供-種載具客艙用座位系統,其包含複數之能夠: 換成床舖的乘客容納單元,當所有或是大部分的單元係裝 配為座位時,其係能夠帶給客搶—種特別的第_整體視覺 外觀並且’當所有或是大部分的單元係裝配為床舖時,其 係此夠帶給客艙一種第二整體外觀或氣氛。 本發明之另一目的係提供一種乘客載具,特別是飛機 ,用座位系統,其係能夠最有效地利用乘讀㈣空間。 /本發明之另-目的係提供_種乘客載具之__曰用座 位系統,其具有一大體上為不擁擠的外觀。

(the description of the invention should state: the technical field to which the invention belongs, the prior art, the content, the embodiments, and the drawings). The new 5-wing seat system for passenger vehicles, especially aircraft. The present invention also relates to a passenger accommodating unit for a vehicle ', which is a passenger facility suitable for providing individual, self-provided seats and sleep. The accommodating unit of the present invention can be used in any passenger vehicle, including buses, buses, ferries, and train cars, but it is particularly suitable for use in aircraft. The invention also includes improvements for vehicles, especially aircraft, 10 passenger seats or related. C Prior Art 3 Background of the Invention 15 20 A passenger seat for a conventional aircraft includes a backrest and a seat chassis that is supported away from the floor of the vehicle by a suitable support structure that is fixed to A pair of seats on the floor were on the way. When a passenger using a seat is viewed in perspective, the seat system forms an abstract longitudinal axis of the seat, and a plurality of such seats are arranged in rows in the cabin of the aircraft fuselage, each row extending transversely. Passing the cabin, one after the other, each-Yu Zhihuan body is aligned with the longitudinal axis of the fuselage so that the mother-seat is facing forward. Normally, during the flight, seat month # 月 ^ is sufficient to recline from the upright position to a recline position where passengers using the seat feel comfortable. -Some of the prior-art passenger seats, especially those used for business and first-class inspections of aircraft, in which the distance between adjacent door seats is larger than that of economic seats, and the same includes-leg rest (Ieg . Coffee) 7 593064 64, description of the invention /, is connected to the front of the seat chassis 'and can be in the lower or storage position, wherein the legrest is suspended from the seat chassis and is generally perpendicular to the floor' and-raised Or in an unfolded position, where the legs are extended forward from the seat chassis to support the passengers' legs moving off the ground. Therefore, it is said that the first-type pawl passenger seat is able to obtain a considerable degree of comfort by reclining the back and raising the legrest with a legrest fitted. The above-mentioned traditional aircraft passenger seats are generally satisfactory for short-haul transportation that lasts three to four hours, but not for longer flights that passengers want to sleep. Even if 10 is in the reclined position described above, the passenger using the seat remains in a sitting position. Most passengers find it difficult to sleep comfortably when sitting. In recent years, the number of passengers on long-haul flights has increased significantly, so the industry tends to design passenger seats that allow passengers to adopt a recline position during flight to help sleep. This is especially important for business travelers, who need to feel refreshed and alert when they arrive at their destination. 20 The industry has revealed that to increase the degree to which an aircraft passenger seat can recline, it can be adjusted, but it includes the extent to which a backrest can be extended backward and the legrest can be raised. Using this technique, it stretches to its limit when the back is leaning back and the leg is raised. It is able to form a generally flat bed, which is generally configured to be in common with the seat chassis each time it is stretched to this condition. flat. The -systemic-disadvantage is that the spacing between adjacent rows of seats must generally increase the maximum height to accommodate passengers. Although this situation sometimes occurs in the areas of the head of the aircraft, it is generally not slow for commercial products. The description of the invention is from white, °, and even though it can form a flat surface that is arranged substantially horizontally. 4 The surface is still not ideal, because foam or other cushions on the seat are generally used as a seat, but for a bed, the system needs to have a substantially flat surface. 10 15 In German patent GB23 Assist 4A, a seat unit for first-class grabbing of an aircraft is disclosed, which includes an auxiliary seat system configured to face a main seat. The auxiliary seat has a _ seat part system configured to cooperate with one of the main seats. When used to form a flail, flat surface for sleeping when the backrest of the main seat leans back to a horizontal position. The seat unit defines an abstract spoon longitudinal axis, and a plurality of the seat units are related to the relationship between the longitudinal axis of each seat and the longitudinal deviation, and can be arranged side by side in the guest inspection. The direction of each seat unit It is at an acute angle to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft fuselage, so that a generally triangular or trapezoidal space is formed in front of or behind each seat unit (depending on whether the seat unit faces outward or inward relative to the cabin). This space uses w to accommodate the worktop (counter_top) to the side of an adjacent seating unit, and can optionally be a food cabinet or other storage space. The advantage of German patent GB2326824 A is that in combination with an additional, auxiliary seat in a flat sleeping surface with the backrest, seat part and legrest of the main seat, it can form a long sleeping surface, which can provide height At 6 feet (1. 83 meters) for passenger comfort. However, the seat unit of the German patent GB2326824 A provides even higher overhead costs in terms of cabin space compared to the conventional system described above. In addition, it still has the disadvantage that the seat cushion is mainly designed to be used as a seat rather than as a bed. . One disadvantage of the seat of German patent GB2326824 A is that it takes up 9 20 593064 930, a large floor area in the description of the invention. Given its overall length, the seat unit of German patent GB2326824 A is completely unsuitable for use in the business class of an aircraft. . The world patent WO 00/21831 A2 discloses a seat unit, which is mainly used in the business class part of an aircraft cabin, and can convert the seat unit into a bed. The seat unit of the world patent WO 00/21831 A2 includes a pair of oppositely facing seats, each seat including a seat space for the occupant's body and an extension space for the occupant to place legs. The seat is configured to allow each side of an abstract dividing axis to extend one seat space beyond that axis into the extension space of the other seat. When installed in the cabin 10 of an aircraft, one of the seats is generally forward facing, while the other seat is generally rearward facing. Each seat of the seat unit of the world patent WO 00/21831 A2 contains a main seat, which is substantially the same as the main seat of the aforementioned German patent GB2326824 A but does not have a leg rest, and a 15 20 auxiliary The unit is #square with the main seat. Each seat thus includes a main seat with a reclining back and seat chassis, and an auxiliary unit including a raised cushion which is used as a footrest Part of the rest). The main seat can be reclined, so that when the backrest is reclined, the seat chassis moves forward to contact the auxiliary unit, which is used to constitute-continuous table:, the surface is used as-sleep for passengers Surface. Compared with the German patent GB2326824 A, the seat unit of the world patent w00 / 2i83i A2 therefore has the advantage of providing passengers with a substantially horizontal sleep: surface during long flights. However, the world patent w00 〇 / 2183i Seat M is long wasted in terms of the space available in a typical business class, and its disadvantage when assembled as a bed is that each seat cannot Material 10 玖 Description of invention Tall passengers get comfortable service. Compared with the seat of the prior art described above, each seat of the seat unit of the world patent WO 00/2183 1 A2 has its seat cushion not specifically for use as The sleeping surface is designed, and its contour assembly is mainly aimed at the disadvantages of the use of the seat surface. Another feature of the passenger seat used in the first class of the aircraft is the wide seat width. It is the same as the world patent WO 00/21831 A2. A further disadvantage associated with seat units is that in order to accommodate the largest total number of people in business class, the seat width is reduced to make most passengers feel uncomfortable. Although the seat unit of the world patent WO 00/21831 A2 is targeted during flight It is recognized as an advantage to provide a substantially flat sleeping surface for passengers, but its overall size makes passengers with height and / or weight above average feel slightly narrower. Furthermore, privacy barriers are arranged in Between the adjacent seating units, plus the total number of seating units configured in the business-class restricted space A 'leads to the cabin There is a slightly crowded scene on it. French Patent No. 987559 A discloses a public transport vehicle, such as an electric car, a bus and similar vehicles, which uses a seating device that includes rows of seats, each seat including a supporting structure It is used to support the seat off the vehicle floor, a seat chassis and a backrest. A walkway is formed between two adjacent rows of seats. The seat chassis of one of the seats adjacent to the aisle can be adjacent to the aisle. The three-seat support structure is removed and lifted in an upside-down direction to form an additional seat in the aisle. The back of a seat can thus be swung forward into the space previously occupied by the seat chassis 'To provide the seat with an alternative seat chassis. The back of a seat has front and back surfaces, both of which can be used as part of the 593064 kan, invention description seat. The entire row of seats is optionally capable of supporting a mattress to form a reclining seat. However, the device of French Patent No. 987559 a is not suitable for use on passenger aircraft, because the aisle of the aircraft must be kept open at all times. Furthermore, a plurality of adjacent seats are used to provide support for a single seated and dual-use 5 seat. . Therefore, the device of French Patent No. 987559 A cannot provide one seat and one seat for each seat. Japanese Patent No. 5-13838 A discloses a seat system for vehicles such as buses and trains, which includes a plurality of seats. Each seat contains a seat chassis and a backrest that can be swung between 10 positions in an upright position and a reclining position, and the seats are arranged in the cabin, which is angled and facing outward with respect to the centerline of the passenger grab. A substantially triangular space is formed between each seat and one of the walls of the cabin. This space accommodates a box +, which contains a footrest for adjacent seats. 15 20 French patent 647809 discloses _ a kind of seat system for sleeper cars, in which a plurality of seats are arranged with the longitudinal axis of the sleeper car _ Xiao degree, and are facing inward to form a general behind each seat Triangular: space is used to accommodate a small table for adjacent seats. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to provide improved passenger inspection for commercial use of passenger aircraft. In particular, it is an object of the present invention to provide the passenger grabber which combines a flat sleeping surface having a maximum length ' and preferably a maximum width at the same time. The purpose of the present invention is to provide an improved passenger accommodating sheet for vehicles. The invention description is particularly for aircraft. The accommodating unit is used to provide passengers with their own, individual seats and sleeping passengers, especially It is used in the business class of aircraft, where the spacing between adjacent rows of seats is typically 50_60 inches (127 to 1. 52 meters). Another object of the present invention is to provide a passenger accommodating unit which can be converted into a bed with a maximum length to accommodate tall passengers, especially those who are taller than 6 feet (0.83 meters). Another object of the present invention is to provide a load-carrying passenger accommodating unit having a seat surface, which is particularly used as a seat surface and a bed surface, and is particularly used as a bed surface. 15 20 A different object of the present invention is to provide a passenger accommodation unit that can be converted into a $ bunk and can contribute to the lift or the atmosphere of the first cabin when assembled into a seat, and can Improve or contribute to the different cabin atmosphere. Therefore, another object of the present invention is to provide a seat system for vehicle cabins, which includes a plurality of passenger accommodation units that can be replaced with beds.

The support ... structure 42 further includes a relatively small, Auxiliary privacy partition 68, The front end portion 51 of the seat unit 40 is circled.  The side cube recess 44 receives a plurality of movable passenger support elements, This is done by a seat movement mechanism which will be explained in more detail below, It is connected to the branch structure 20. The movable passenger support element includes a seat chassis 71 and a backrest 72. The seat movement mechanism allows the passenger support element to be selectively assembled, To provide a passenger seat, The center and right-hand side seating units 40 shown in Figure 2, Or, make a bed on the left-hand side as shown in Figure 2. In seat form, Movable passenger support element ", 72 series can 44 593064 玖, Description of the invention It is optionally in an upright or dining position as shown in the seat unit 40 on the right-hand side of FIG. 2, And it moves between a reclining or reclining position as shown in the center seat unit 40 in FIG. 2.  The movable passenger support element 71, 72 is connected to the branch structure 42 via the seat moving mechanism with 5 waves. In seat form, The seat chassis 7 is housed in a cube recess 44 of the housing 43, And the backrest 72 extends upward from the recess 44 to the rear of the seat chassis 71, And on the first and second sides 53 of the seat unit 40, 54 extends laterally. therefore, As perceived by a passenger using a seating unit, The seating unit 40 defines an abstract longitudinal axis of the seat, It is 10 before the seat unit 40 and the rear portion 51, Extending between 52, This is shown by the dashed lines C-C in Figure 1A.  In a fully upright position, The seat chassis 71 is generally arranged with the first surface 47 and the first surface 47, 48 at the same height, And separated from the back of the soft palate 65, So that the seat cushion 67 provides a footrest portion for the passenger 15 using one of the seat unit buckles. In the back position, The backrest 72 leans back relative to its position in the upright position, And the seat chassis 71 is tilted slightly backward, To provide an ergonomically comfortable reclining seating position. Furthermore, In the leaning position, The seat cushion 67 of the upholstered stool 65 serves as a footrest for passengers.  The backrest 72 includes a front surface 73 and a rear surface 74. In the upright and back positions, The backrest front surface 73 cooperates with the seat chassis 71, Used to form passenger seats. In the form of beds, As shown on the left hand side of Figure 2 The backrest is swung forward relative to the seat unit, And partly trough in the cube recess 44, So that the surface 74 after the back 72 is substantially 45 玖, Description of the invention With first and second surfaces 47, 48 coplanar, It is coplanar with the cushion 67 of the upholstered stool 65. In bed form, The surface 74 behind the backrest 72 is substantially continuous with the second surface 48 and the cushion 67 at the same time. The seat moving mechanism includes a movable filling element 76, As shown in Figure ία, When the seat is converted from a seat to a bed, It is moved from a storage position to an unfolded position. In the form of beds, The filling element 76 is arranged in the middle position, And it is substantially coplanar with the surface 74 behind the backrest 72 and the first surface 47 and is continuous. In the form of beds, The seat unit 40 thus provides a passenger extended bed surface, The bed surface extends behind the seat by a first surface 47, With the second surface 48 extending laterally from the seat, It extends in front of the seat by the cushion 67 of the upholstered stool 65.  Related to Figures 1 and 1A, The seat units 40 in each row 29 are attached to individual pairs of seat tracks 32, 34, So that the abstract seat vertical axis c_c of each seat unit 40 forms a pair of acute angles with the abstract row vertical axis b-b,  15,  The seat units 40 are arranged side by side offset from each other in the longitudinal direction. So that each seat unit 40 is at each seat 71, Behind 72, a substantially triangular or trapezoidal space 36 is formed. This seat unit 40 is arranged in row 29,  So that the convex portion 61 of the privacy partition 60 of the seat unit 40, In general, it abuts continuously on the first concave lateral edge of another adjacent seating unit 40.  〇 As clearly shown in Figure 1A, Seat 71 per seat unit 40, After 72 square space 36, It is therefore occupied by the first surface 47 of a seat and the second surface 48 of another adjacent seat, The first and second surfaces 47 of the one and the other seating unit 40, The 48 series are separated from each other by a privacy partition 60 of a seat unit 40. So use 71 in each seat Space behind 46 593064 玖, Invention Description 36, Used to place seats 71, 72 extends back into the space 36, While extending the bed surface provided by the seating unit 40, 7 4. 7 6 length.  An acute angle formed by the seating units 40 in a row 29, The system is oriented relative to the abstract line axis B-B depending on the required passenger configuration. however, Typically,  The acute angle between the abstract seat axis c_c and the row axis B_B of each seat unit 40 is in the range of 30 degrees to 60 degrees. And preferably it is 40 degrees to 50 degrees,  As shown in Figure 1, For example, about 40 degrees. The orientation of the seat unit 40 may be related to the cabin 20, 21 while facing inward or outward. In the first cabin 10 20 in Figure i, What you can see is that Each layman 29 is configured with opposite side walls 26,  One of the individual side walls of 28 is adjacent, And in each row of the 29 seats where the 40 series face inward. The second lateral edge 49 of the seating unit 40 in each row 29 is substantially coplanar, To form an extended outer edge, It extends to the side walls 26 of the cabin 20, 28 tied. Due to the side walls 15 26 in the first cabin 20 Curvature of 28, So on the lay edge and each side wall 26, 28 has a J gap of 27 ' and the gap 27 is typically filled with a suitable filling panel of a type well known to those skilled in the art.  In the second cabin 21, The seat unit 40 of each layman 29 is facing inward and forward with respect to the passenger 21. As can be seen in Figure 1, When the side wall 26 of the second passenger 20 cabin 21, 28 and side walls 26 of the first cabin 20, 28 is less curved than the second edge 49 of the seating unit 40 and the position in the first cabin 20 is closer to the side wall 26, 28, Therefore, on the outside edge of the seat and the opposite side wall 26, There is no or substantially no gap between 28. The second cabin 21 bis seat unit 40 of the central bank 29 is also 47 593064 玖, DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION However, the direction of the passenger ship 21 is outward facing. The two central banks' 29 series are configured back-to-back. So that a second linear unit 49 of each seat unit in Yin Central Bank 29, Generally, the second linear edge corresponding to one of the other seat units 40 located in another central bank 29 is continuous. however,  5 Compared with the first cabin 20 trip 29, Seat unit 40 on line 29 of second cabin 21, It is so configured that in each seat 71, After 72, The seating unit forms a generally triangular or trapezoidal space 36, It is occupied by a first surface 47 of one seat 40 and a second surface 48 of another-adjacent seat unit 40.  10. The private partition is located between the two Central Banks of China. The partition may include a movable section member, It's in the middle of the seat 40 of each pair of the two Central Banks 29, The positioning member can selectively move in an unfolded position between storage and retracted standing position, In the deployed position, the positioning member effectively forms a privacy barrier between the two pairs of seats 40, While; Remove the positioning member in the storage and retrieval position, So that the passenger using the second corresponding seat is in the form of a bed or a seat, There is no boundary between them.  The seat system of the present invention allows each seat unit 40 under the bed form, Provide a passenger bed surface, Its length is at least 80 inches (2'032 a feet) 'in each row of 29. The distance between the adjacent seat unit buckles is 50 to 60 忖 ⑽ to ⑸ meters). In some cases, It is possible that the size of the bed provided in the form of a bed at a distance of more than 1 inch (2. 16 meters).  It should be noted that Husband 3 is also one of Tamoto's miscellaneous seats. 40 mobile passengers 48 593064 玖, Description of the invention 72, As shown in Figure 2, Is configured as a dining or reclining seat, Seat 71, The space 36 behind 72 is concealed by an upright or backrest 72. therefore, When the seat unit 40 is used as a seat, Space 3 6 provides a useful storage space, In particular, it can be used to store bedding materials, Such as pillows, blanket, Duvets and the like.

The specific system in Figure 28 is specifically designed for use on the Boeing 747. The upper "lower deck" of the Meiji aircraft, but the system can be used on any passenger aircraft, especially in business grabs. The seat system of Fig. 28, on each of the upper and lower panels, includes a plurality of tree raft passenger accommodation units For example, the accommodating units in Figs. 18-21 or 22_27. Each of the accommodating units 8 'is juxtaposed with a guest side wall ㈣ and its direction is about 50 degrees with the longitudinal direction of the side wall 810, which is more than It's about 45 degrees' with the unit's back facing the wall 81, so that the seat is generally facing the interior. By facing the unit 800 inward, the passenger is compared with the front and back seats of the passenger. The grabbing system shows a less crowded appearance. Each unit has a generally triangular or trapezoidal extension box or space between the back of the unit and the side wall 810 of the passenger ship side by side. Generally, the aircraft passenger inspection wall is inside It is recessed, and therefore the extension box or "㈣" of each unit is extended into the recess formed by the wall. It can make the most effective use of the space in the inspection. Each unit includes components for the beds as described above, which are extended into extension boxes or spaces to maximize the available bed length. 81 593064 The invention is described in the floor plan of some aircrafts, and there is enough space to arrange one or more units towards the center of the cabin. As shown in Figure 28, it is for the Boeing 747-400⑧ aircraft. Lower deck. In this specific embodiment, units of the two central banks are configured, and the direction of each unit is an angle of about 45 degrees with the forward direction of the aircraft. The central units 800 are arranged in pairs, and each seat is generally facing the front of the cabin and facing outward, so that two units of each pair diverge from each other in the forward direction and in front of the rear pair of units, A quadrilateral space is formed substantially behind the unit. The quadrangular space 840 accommodates an extension box or space combined with 800 for each unit, and provides an extended bed length for each unit for the needle 10. Each unit 800 includes a hollow foot box of the type described above in relation to FIGS. 18-21 and 22-27. The upper wall of the mother foot can be used to provide a convenient side table or other The furniture unit is for another unit. In relation to Figures 29A to 29C, a passenger vehicle of the present invention is used, for example, 15 such as an aircraft, the second passenger seat assembly 900 includes a fixed support, and the structure is generally represented by the symbol 9 丨 〇 Marking, used to support the seat assembly off the floor F of the vehicle. The support structure 9 includes a member adapted to attach the seat assembly to a floor. For example, where the seat assembly 900 is mounted on an aircraft, the support structure 910 typically includes one or more fixtures for use in attaching the seat assembly to the floor of an aircraft cabin, typically Types of seats dominate. Compared with the seat unit 40 in FIG. 2 or the first seat assembly in FIGS. 3-5, the supporting structure of the second seat assembly 900 may include a base or axillary armrest for attaching to the seat. track. The support structure 910 further includes a lift passenger support member 912, 914, each of which is generally 82 593064 mm. The invention description has a flat, horizontal upper surface (to offset the slight tilt of the aircraft during flight). . The passenger support members 912, 914 are spaced apart to form a cavity 916 within the support structure. The support structure 910 can be made of any suitable aircraft-grade structural material known to those skilled in the art. The support structure may be skeletal or may include one or more solid walls. Typically, the support structure is made of a lightweight synthetic material, but the aforementioned fixtures used to secure the support to the seatway or other floor in the aircraft may include one or More light steel or aluminum reinforced beams or bases. 10. The chamber 916 accommodates a passenger seat, and is generally marked with a representative symbol 920. The passenger seat 920 is generally supported by a support structure 910, and includes a backrest element 922 and a seat chassis element 924. The backrest element and a seat chassis element 922 and 924 are connected to the supporting structure 91 through a seat moving mechanism, which is generally marked with a representative symbol 930. 15 The seat moving mechanism 930 includes two similarly irregularly shaped polygon plates 932, which are mounted on either side of the seat 92. It should be noted that in the side views of Figures 29A to 29C, only one of these plates 932 can be seen. Each polygonal plate 932 is formed with a generally linear, elongated slit 934 that is juxtaposed with one edge 935 of the plate. Juxtaposed with a relative edge% 6 20, the plate 932 carries two spaced, inwardly facing lugs% ?. A straight line between the lugs 937 forms an acute angle with the linear slit 934. It is juxtaposed with the other edge 939 of the plate 932, which substantially extends laterally between the one and the opposite edges 935, 936. The plate 932 is connected to one end of a two-piece flail stem device 940 . The link assembly includes an 83 593064 玖, a first member 941 of the invention, which is pivotally connected to the plate 932, and a second member 942 which is pivotally connected to the first member 941 at one end to constitute The knee joint 943 is connected to a fixed pivot point 944 on the support structure 910 at the other end. 5 The seat moving mechanism includes a member for connecting the seat chassis to the backrest so that the lower end portion of the backrest remains continuous with the rear end of the seat chassis, while allowing the seat chassis and the backrest to pivot relative to each other. The linear slit 934 has upper and lower ends 954, 955, and slides into a lug member 95 1 which protrudes from individual sides of the seat chassis 924 10. Juxtaposed to its front end 925, the seat chassis 924 is pivotally connected to each side, and is pivotally connected to one end of a linear post 961 at a pivot point 952. The linear strut 961 is pivotally connected to a sliding table frame member (not shown) at the other end 962, and the member is connected to a support structure 910 located below the seat chassis 924. The sliding table frame member is movably mounted to the supporting structure 15 so that the sliding table frame member can be moved between an upper position corresponding to FIGS. 29A to 29C and a lower position corresponding to FIGS. 30A and 30B. . A suitable biasing member is configured, for example, such as a bomb, a gas pillar, or the like, for biasing the moon frame member into the upper position. A selectively releasable mechanical fixing device is usually provided at the same time for fixing the sliding table frame member 20 in its position. The βHai linear strut 961 is swingably mounted to the sliding table frame member so that it can lie forward in a generally upright position as shown in FIG. 29A, and as shown in FIG. 29C. Shake between positions. The lugs 937, which are spaced apart on the polygonal plate 932, mesh with the -curve 84 593064. Description of the invention The track 971 is fixedly fastened to the individual sides of the backrest 922. As can be seen from Figures 29A to 29C and 30A to 30C, the curved track 971 is conveniently formed in an elongated plate member 972 which is attached to the back side. The curve's execution path 971 has upper and lower ends 973 and 5 974, respectively. Related to FIG. 29A. When the seat 920 is arranged in the upright or "dining" position, the two-part linkage set 94o series Is in an extended form, so that the first and second members 941, 942 are substantially coplanar with each other, and the two first and second members 94 !, 942 are generally tied upward from the pivot point 10944 And extend forward. The plate 932 extends backward from the attachment point to the first link member 941 and is oriented so that the linear slit 934 extends upward and backward. The backrest portion 922 is in an upright position, and the spaced-apart lugs are arranged at the ends below the curved track 971. The direction of the seat chassis is generally horizontal '(during flight) and the lugs 951 are disposed at the end 954 above the linear slit state 15. The sliding table frame member (not shown) is disposed in the above position as described above, and the direction of the swingable linear support 961 is substantially vertical. The seat chassis 924 is thus tied rearwardly between the two passenger support members 912, 914 in the chamber 91-6. The seat chassis 924 has an upper surface 926, which is suitably fitted with a 20-piece and used as a seat element. Similarly, the backrest element 922 has a front surface 923, which is suitably mounted as a seat element. Preferably, the front surface 923 of the backrest element is decorated to cooperate with the upper surface 926 of the seat chassis 924. Among them, the passenger wing member 914 is arranged in front of the seat 920 'and used as a fixed legrest portion, which is similar to the description of the invention. The legrest portion 928 has an upper surface 929. «The linear pillar 961 is operatively and selectively operable with a fixed motor transmission (not shown) capable of driving the pillar 961, as described above, in the upright position in Figure 29A and Figure 29C The five forward tilted positions are shaken in relation to the upper end portion 962 thereof. A suitable user control (not shown) is provided in the seat assembly so that a passenger using the seat can operate the fixed transmission. The backrest portion 922 has a rear surface 921 which is substantially planar. When the seat system is upright as shown in FIG. 29A, the rear surface 921 is separated from the passenger support member 912 by a small gap 913. The rear surface 921 carries a mattress portion (not shown) for use as a part of the bed. The mattress P knife is attached to the rear surface 921 of the backrest portion 922 so that when the backrest is upright, it is not Remove the mattress part. The passenger support member 912 also has an upper surface 911 which supports a mattress portion. A movable-filled passenger support member 915 is pivotally connected to a front side of the passenger support member M " ^ Side 4: 917. The filling member 9 i 5 is generally linear and has an upper surface 918 that carries a mattress P knife (not shown). The filling member 91-5 is slidably connected to the back surface 921 of the backrest element M2. As shown in Figure 29A, in the upright position, the filling member 915 extends substantially upright between the fixed passenger support member 9 丨 2 and the backrest element 922 of the seat 920 in the gap 913. . In addition to the fixed transmission motor used to drive the linear strut 961, it is equipped with a selectively operable motorized transmission for swinging the second part of the two-part linkage set 940 in relation to a fixed pivot point 944. II 86 593064 发明, invention description link member 942. The second link member 942 includes a rearwardly extending connecting portion 945 (see the first pass) for connecting with another transmission motor (not shown). At the same time, the user control device can be used to operate the mechanical fixing device 5 and release the seat chassis from the upper position while operating the second transmission device. When the seat system is upright as shown in FIG. 29A, the seat system can use 2 operating ㈣ drive motors to correlate the other end portion and swing the linear support 961 forward to recline the seat, while A sliding table frame member (not shown) supports the linear post 961 in its upper position. By shaking the linear strut 961 forward, the seat chassis element 924 of the seat is pulled forward in the chamber system, and the lug 951 slides from the upper end 954 along the slit 934 toward the lower end 955 . The forward movement of the seat chassis at the same time caused the lower end of the scapegoat 922 to move forward. The backrest part is restricted and is in the curved U-line track 971. The two tracks are moved along a predetermined path by the stagnation of the lugs 937. The 97K is made in an appropriate shape to cause the backrest milk to move to the seat chassis. And gradually lean back. When the seat is tilted back, the lug 937 follows the curve 971, moves through a middle position as shown in Figure 29B, and the two lug milk 20 is close to the upper end of the curved track 971 973, at which point the seat cannot be moved any further, and the seat is in the position of one of the heirs or leaners as shown in Figure 29C. It should be noted that the fixed action of the fixed transmission motor allows the seat Stopped and fixed at any desired intermediate position between the two ends represented by Figures 29A and 29C. 87 593064 发明 Description of the invention When a passenger using the second seat assembly 900 of the present invention is a passenger It is hoped that the sleeper seat assembly can be converted into a bed. Passengers operate the user control device to release the seat chassis from its upper position and cause the first motorized actuator to be as shown in Fig. 30a. In relation to the pivot point 944 shown in the figure, the second link member 942 of the link group device 940 is rocked back 5 times. When the second link member 942 is rocked backward, it is between the first and second link members The knee joint between 94 J was interrupted, allowing the first link structure 941 is related to the knee joint member 943 and shakes to the back and down, so that the back of the seat 920 moves forward in the chamber 916 and pivots forward 10 times from its upright position. When When the backrest element 922 is pivoted forward, it is pushed downward on the seat chassis portion 924, and is thus induced to move downward on the sliding platform frame member (not shown) to resist the action of the biasing member. Second The continuous backward movement of the connecting rod group member 942 causes the polygonal plates 2 and the backing element π] to move downward toward the floor F of the vehicle until, as shown in FIG. 303, the rear surface 921 of the guilty element 922 It is arranged substantially horizontally (during flight) and is coplanar with the passenger support members 912 and 914. The link group member 940, the polygon plate 932, the curved track 971, and the lug 937 are arranged so that they are as shown in FIG. 30B In the form of bed shown, the upper end of the backrest element is abutted against the rear edge of the forward passenger support member 914 to form a continuous surface with it. Equipped with suitable, releasable fixing devices, For backrest 922 Moreover, as can be clearly seen in FIG. 3A, when the backrest element 922 is shaken in the cavity 916 and moved forward, the filling member 915 follows the backrest element. The surface 921 slides and is induced or allowed to pivot forward until 88 593064 发明, the description of the invention 'as shown in the 3GB diagram, when the backrest element is generally horizontally arranged, the filling member 915 is placed on the passenger support member 912 and the back The backing element is formed between the rear surface 921 and the bridging part so that the upper surface 911, 918, 921, the filling member 915 and the backing element 922 of the passenger wing member 912 are generally octahedral and constitute a continuous surface. It should be noted that the mattress portion carried by the passenger support member 912, the filling member 915, and the rear surface 921 of the backing element 922 constitute an elongated mattress for passengers to sleep on. In addition, the upper surface 929 of the passenger support member 914 in front of the seat 920 can simultaneously carry a quilt portion to further extend the bed composed of the seat in the form of a bed in FIG. 10. The seat assembly of the present invention is allowed to form a continuous bedding surface with a length of at least 78_80 inches (1. 98_ 2. 032 meters). In some cases, the bed formed by the upper surface 9U, 918, 921, 929, the filling member ... 5 of the passenger support member 9ΐ2, M #, and the rear surface 921 of the backrest element 922 may have a length exceeding 15 inches. (2. 16 meters). In order to return the seat assembly 900 to a seat form, the second motor transmission is actuated to swing the second link member of the two-part linkage set 940 forwardly in relation to the fixed pivot point 944 942, thereby causing the first link member 941 to swing backwards, and in turn, causing the polygonal plate 932 to swing backwards and upwards, and gradually returning the backrest element 922 to its upright position. When the backrest element 922 returns to the upright position, the seat chassis element 924 is allowed to return to a position above the load bearing member (not shown) under the influence of the biasing member (also not shown). When the seat chassis returns to its upper seat position, the mechanical fixing member is automatically re-engaged to hold the seat in its upper position. It can be seen from examining the figures 29A to 20C that the upper surface 911 of the passenger support member 912 and the upper surface 918 of the filling member 915, when the seat assembly is assembled in the form of a seat, constitutes a Convenient recess 5 of 98. The recess 980 is at least partially hidden from view by the backrest portion 922 of the seat 920. Therefore, the recess 98 may be used for storing bedding materials such as pillows, duvets, and the like, for example. When the seat assembly is moved to the bedding form in Fig. 30B, the passenger can easily take out bedding material and unfold the surface of the bedding composed of the components of the seat assembly as described above. Another advantage of the passenger seat assembly 900 described previously is that the front surface 923 of the Λ element 922 and the upper surface 926 of the seat chassis element 924 can be particularly cushioned and covered for use as a seat element. Therefore, for example, the accusation element and the chassis element 922, 924 can carry 15 layers of foamed plugs, which are specially shaped and used as seat members. The texture, pattern, and / or color design of the cushion, and the decorative material used to cover the front surface 923 of the backrest element and the upper surface 926 of the seat chassis element may be materials specifically selected for use as a seat. In contrast, the mattress portion, the filling member 915, and the back surface 921 of the backrest element 922 carried by the passenger support member 912 may be specifically designed for use as bedding materials. Therefore, the internal pop-up mattress part or foam cushion layer used is specially made in an appropriate shape, which brings maximum comfort to passengers when using the seat as a bed. In particular, the materials and fabrics used to decorate the mattress part are available in a variety of colors, textures, colors, etc., which are particularly suitable for use as bedding materials 90 593064, invention description. The bedding material used for the decoration part and the material used to decorate the seat assembly ^ The seat parts have quite different appearances from each other. However, it can be seen that when the seat is assembled and used as a seat, most of the bedding material is concealed by the backrest element 922, and only the seats of the seats constituting the intersecting part of the seat can be seen. section. Similarly, when the seat is reassembled and used as a bed, the front surface of the backrest element and the upper surface of the seat & melons 7G are generally hidden and cannot be seen, and only the bedding material can be seen. It includes a mattress section on a passenger support element 912, a filling member 915, and a rear surface 921 of the backrest element 922. 15 In a passenger inspection of a vehicle, for example, the installation of a plurality of passenger seat assemblies of the present invention on an aircraft can be used to bring the aircraft to a bed or seat configuration according to most of the seat assembly systems. Observe two different things: feel the appearance or atmosphere. Therefore, most of the passenger seat assemblies during the daytime flight, or during the daytime portion of a long-lasting flight, are configured as a seat, as shown in one of the WC diagrams. The bedding material is generally hidden so that only the seat surface of the assembly can be seen. Of course, the seat assembly can be decorated to any desired design, but, for example, the seat assembly is cushioned and brought to the recording room with a private club view. For example, the upper surface 926 of the seat chassis element 924 and the back surface element 923 may be fitted with leather dumplings. During the night flight, either in the night portion of a long-term flight, 'most or all of the seat assemblies are fitted in the form of beds, as shown in the figure below.' The upper part is hidden, and only the passenger support member 912, the upper surfaces 911, 918, 921, 929, the stuffing member 915, and the bedding material supported by the backrest 91 20 593064 玖, the invention description element 922 can be seen. The material used to decorate the mattress portion has a significantly "softer" appearance than the material used to decorate the seat side of the back of the backrest element 922, in order to give the passenger cabin an attractive fit for sleep , Laid-back atmosphere. Figures 31 and 32 respectively show two different seating systems, each of which includes a plurality of seating assemblies previously related to the type shown in Figures 29-30. In Figure 31, an aircraft cabin is formed in particular by two opposing curved walls 1001, 1002. It is well known to those skilled in the art that each of the walls 1001, 1002 is generally recessed 10 on its inner surface. A row 1029 of the 15 passenger seat assemblies 900 of the present invention is arranged in parallel with each of the walls 1001, 1002. Regarding the seat assembly 900 represented by one of them, each seat assembly 900 forms a series of abstract vertical axes indicated by a representative symbol 1012. The seat assembly 900 is oriented in a pair of acute angles with respect to the adjacent cabin walls 1001, 1002. Figure 31 also shows an abstract "forward" axis 1014 juxtaposed with the wall 1001. It should be noted that the "forward, axis 1014" facing the front of the aircraft is actually not precisely oriented forward in relation to the forward direction of the aircraft, but the direction is generally the forward and backward direction of the adjacent side wall 100i Parallel, while ignoring the slight bend on the side 11001. The direction of each seat assembly 900 is between the abstract longitudinal axis 1G12 of the seat assembly and the abstract "forward" axis 1014 of the aircraft passenger grab. An alpha angle of about 40 degrees is formed. Each seat assembly is configured so that the passenger support member 912 extends into a recess formed by the side wall surface 1002 and the characteristic of the side surface 1002.
