发明名称 Tracking table assembly
摘要 Disclosed is a foldable tracking table assembly comprising a primary leaf, and a secondary leaf rotatably secured to the primary leaf and a table bracket secured to the opposite end of the primary leaf The table bracket in turn is secured to an adapter plate which is atop one or more pillow blocks. The pillow blocks are disposed atop linear rails upon which the pillow blocks are capable of longitudinally traversing. Adjacent the linear rail is a serrated track parallel to the at least one rail and a serrated pawl capable of locking engagement with the serrated track. A solenoid facilitates the locking engagement of the pawl with the serrated track wherein a user of the table assembly manually activates the solenoid withdrawing the serrated pawl from locking engagement with the serrated track thereby allowing the table assembly to traverse the linear rail to a position that accommodates the user.

主权项 1. A foldable tracking table assembly for use in a vehicle to support the accessories and meal items of a passenger, the tracking table assembly comprising; at least one linear rail upon which at least one pillow block is capable of slidable longitudinal translation; a solenoid cradle disposed atop the at least one pillow block; a solenoid disposed atop the solenoid cradle, wherein a solenoid plunger assembly extends outwardly from a first end of the solenoid; a serrated track disposed adjacent to and running parallel to the at least one linear rail, the serrated track configured for locking engagement with the solenoid plunger assembly; an adapter plate positioned over the solenoid and solenoid cradle and secured to the at least one pillow block; a table bracket with an outwardly extending flange, the outwardly extending flange secured to the adapter plate, wherein when the solenoid is energized by a passenger activated switch connected to a power supply, the solenoid plunger assembly disengages from the serrated track thereby allowing the at least one pillow block to traverse atop the at least one linear rail to a position that accommodates the user.
