Sitzeinheit für ein Passagierfahrzeug

摘要

A seating unit for a passenger vehicle, especially an aircraft, has a reclinable seat back (18) connected to a seating portion (16) by a hinge (22). A slider (24, 88) is mounted in a guide track (26) and supports the hinge (22). A pivotally connected front strut (30) supports the seating portion (16) at a location in front of the hinge (22). A pivotally connected rear strut (36) supports the seat back (18) at a location spaced apart from the hinge (22). As the slider (24) along the guide track (26), the seat back (18) moves to an orientation substantially coplanar with the seating portion (16) so as to provide a flat surface for a sleeping passenger.
