Sleeper seats 1, each comprises a head rest 2, a back rest 3, a seat pan or seat cushion 4, a leg rest 5, an ottomans6 and a dividers 7 between the individual seats with the their column. The four seats shown in Figure 1 are arranged in a staggered chevron formation and two columns 8,9. All the seats in each column are parallel with each other and set at a "herringbone" angle ± to the column direction, in other words their central axes A make the angle ± with a longitudinal axis 10 of the array. Each seat extends from its column side of the longitudinal axis across the axis to a small extent 11. Along the axis, first a seat from one column crosses the axis and then a seat from the other column crosses the axis and so on. The seats on opposite sides of the axis are screened from each other by a serpentine divider 12, which passes from one side of the axis 10 to the other side along the longitudinal axis. At joints 15, just on an individual seat's side of the longitudinal axis, the serpentine divider forks from the seat's own divider 7 from the next seat in the respective column. In effect the serpentine divider is comprised of successive longitudinal axis portions 15 of the dividers 7, which are made as a continuous piece from their inboard ends 16 to their outboard ends 17. |
