Arrangement of seats for an aircraft cabin
View Patent ↗An arrangement of individual seats for passengers in an aircraft, comprising a plurality of seats ( 1 ) which can be converted into beds and disposed in rows ( 2 ), comprising two lateral groups ( 3 a ) of two contiguous rows, each group being disposed along a wall ( 4 ) of the aircraft fuselage, and two central groups ( 3 b ) each comprising two continuous rows. The central groups being up against one another laterally, and the central groups being separated from each of the lateral groups by a gangway. Each of the lateral and central groups comprising, between two consecutive groups in a first row, and a gap able to allow transverse passage ( 6 ) to a gangway ( 7 ) for the passengers in the second row when the corresponding seat in the first row is in the bed position.
1. An arrangement of individual seats for passengers in an aircraft, comprising a plurality of seats which can be converted into beds and disposed in rows, each row extending in the longitudinal direction of the aircraft, and each seat being oriented towards the front of the aircraft, characterized in that it comprises:
first and second lateral groups of two contiguous rows, each group being disposed along a wall of the aircraft fuselage, the seats in one row of said first lateral group being offset longitudinally with respect to the seats in the other row of said first lateral group, and the seats in one row of said second lateral group being offset longitudinally with respect to the seats in the other row of said second lateral group, and
first and second central groups each comprising two contiguous rows, said central groups being laterally adjacent one another, the seats in one row of said first central group being offset longitudinally with respect to the seats in the other row of said first central group, the seats in one row of said second central group being offset longitudinally with respect to the seats in the other row of second first central group, the seats in said one row of said first central group being laterally aligned with the seats in said one row of said second central group, the seats in said other row of said first central group being laterally aligned with the seats in said other row of said second central group, and
said first and second central groups being separated from said first and second lateral groups by first and second gangways; and
each row of said first and second lateral and central groups comprising, between two consecutive seats in each row, a gap able to allow transverse passage to one of said first and second gangways for the passengers,
wherein each seat is provided with a fixed separation shell substantially in an S shape, said shell comprising a first transverse wall extending behind the seat, a second transverse wall extending in front of an adjacent seat in the contiguous row, and a longitudinal wall extending between the two transverse walls.
2. An arrangement according to claim 1 , characterized in that the seats are arranged so that, in the bed position, a leg rest of each seat is disposed under one of said first and second transverse walls of the fixed shell of an adjacent seat in the longitudinal direction.
3. An arrangement according to claim 1 characterized in that, on the rows of the first and second lateral groups disposed along the wall of the aircraft fuselage, and on each of the two rows adjacent to one another in the first and second central groups, a space is provided between two consecutive seats.
