DESCRIPTION
PLANE SEAT LOWER BACKREST MAGAZINE POCKET Technical Field
The present invention relates to easily mountable/demountable seat pockets disposed at rear section of the plane seats and providing positive contribution to the passenger ergonomics. Prior Art
Several apparatus are designed for comfort and some needs of the passengers in the transportation vehicles such as planes or intercity buses. The foremost among these apparatus is the pockets disposed behind the seats. The passenger wishes to keep around some of personal belongings such as mobile phone, wallet, book, music piayer, etc. during the journey. Therefore, pockets are placed behind the seats in order to keep around the aforementioned personal belongings of the passenger or the materials such as magazines, headphones, etc. distributed during the journey.
In the prior art, the transportation vehicles are subjected to maintenance in certain periods, in particular, such type of apparatus in the plane seats used by the passengers are either cleaned or maintained after each flight. Therefore, such apparatus should be easily mountable and demountable. However, in the system of the prior art mounting and demounting processes for such apparatus are not easy and even necessitate qualified labor in some cases.
In the prior art, the need for qualified labor for mounting and demounting the aforementioned apparatus brings forth the loss of time and cost.
In the prior art, a wire is placed inside the pocket in order to have the pockets behind the plane seat to stand erect. This situation ensures that the pocket stands erect but also forms a bulge. As known, the space reserved for the passenger in the vehicles is limited. The bulge formed by the wire further diminishes the movement area of the passenger, which is already limited. In the prior art, visual quality is essential in the modern transportation vehicles such as planes and high-speed trains in particular. Aforementioned wires provide a bulgy, thus non- aesthetic appearance to the pocket. In the prior art, some passengers put the food given during the service in said pockets, thus the food spills in these pockets. Some pockets of the prior art cannot be demounted, thus the food spilled in the pockets cannot be cleaned completely and generates/gives off bad odor in time.
In the prior art, some pockets behind the seat are not fitted with flexible tapes; this situation not only gives a bulgy appearance to the pockets but also reduces the volume thereof as the pocket is inflexible.
One of the patents available in literature with respect to this subject matter is the patent application No. TR2006/06836 and titled "Multipurpose brochure holder to be used in public transportation vehicles". As the pocket of said invention is not fitted with flexible tapes, the items that the passenger can put in the pocket are limited with thin items such as books, magazines, brochures, etc.
In conclusion, due to the drawbacks mentioned above and the inadequacy of the existing solutions regarding the subject matter, it is required to make a development in the related technical field.
Objects of the Invention
The present invention relates to an easily demountable plane seat lower backrest magazine pocket which meets the aforementioned requirements, eliminates all the disadvantages and introduces some additional advantages.
Another object of the present invention is to use flexible tapes in order to have the pocket stand erect rather than wire; thus to avoid further limiting the movement area of the passenger, which is already limited, and thus to offer more comfortable and more tranquil journey to the passenger.
Another object of the present invention is to avoid deteriorating the aesthetics of the vehicle by putting wire within the pockets behind the seats, thus to offer high quality journey to the passenger in terms of comfort and also aesthetics.
Another object of the present invention is to facilitate mounting and demounting of the pockets behind the seat of the invention, thus to enable cleaning of food crumbs spilled in said pockets by the passengers, and to prevent generation of bad odor, thus to offer a more hygienic journey.
Another object of the present invention is to provide positive contribution to the planes where weight is significant by reducing the number of parts used for mounting the inner pockets of the plane seat backrest and to ensure very easy mounting and demounting operations different from the conventional solutions.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an aesthetic appearance by fitting flexible tapes to said poekets as well as to ensure stretching of the pocket if needed, thus the pocket can hold items,
