Double-spar chassis for aircraft passenger seat
View Patent ↗The present application describes a chassis for an air passenger seat for an aircraft. According to one exemplary embodiment, the chassis has at least two first lateral parts, and a first and a second spar. The second spar is implemented in the foot region of the air passenger seat and, in addition to its supporting function, ensures baggage is secured. The assumption of additional objects by the chassis construction advantageously allows an air passenger seat to be manufactured with minimum material outlay and therefore weight outlay.
1. A chassis for an air passenger seat for an aircraft, comprising:
at least two first lateral parts,
a first spar and
a second spar;
wherein the first and the second spars are positioned essentially horizontally between the at least two first lateral parts;
wherein the second spar is formed in a foot region of the air passenger seat for securing baggage;
wherein the first and the second spars form a support for stabilizing the at least two first lateral parts;
wherein the at least two first lateral parts are formed from a rear girder part and a front girder part;
wherein the rear girder part and the front girder part are separable and adapted for being assembled on a split line along a longitudinal direction of the rear girder part and the front girder part; and
wherein receivers for the first and second spars are formed between the rear and front girder parts.
2. The chassis for an air passenger seat of claim 1 , further comprising at least one second lateral part.
3. The chassis for an air passenger seat of claim 2 ,
wherein the second lateral part is formed from a rear girder part and a front girder part; and
wherein receivers for the first and second spars are formed between the rear and front girder parts.
4. The chassis for an air passenger seat of claim 1 ,
wherein the first spar is adapted for mounting a seat surface.
5. The chassis for an air passenger seat of claim 1 , wherein said first spar acts as a stop for a seat surface.
6. The chassis for an air passenger seat of claim 1 ,
wherein the second spar is adapted as a foot support.
7. A seating group for an air vehicle, comprising:
at least two seats;
at least two first lateral parts;
at least one first spar and one second spar;
wherein the first and the second spars are positioned essentially horizontally between the at least two first lateral parts;
wherein the second spar is formed in a foot region of the seating group for securing baggage; and
wherein the first and the second spars stabilize the at least two first lateral parts;
wherein the at least two first lateral parts are formed from a rear girder part and a front girder part;
wherein the rear girder part and the front girder part are separable and adapted for being assembled on a split line along a longitudinal direction of the rear girder part and the front girder part; and
wherein receivers for the first and second spars are formed between the rear and front girder parts.
8. An aircraft comprising at least one chassis for an air passenger seat of claim 1 or comprising at least one seating group of claim 7 .
9. A method for manufacturing a chassis for an air passenger seat,
wherein the chassis comprises:
at least one first rear girder part with a first and second receiver;
at least one first front girder part with a third and fourth receiver;
at least one second rear girder part with a fifth and sixth receiver;
at least one second front girder part with a seventh and eighth receiver;
a first spar;
a second spar;
the method comprising the steps of:
pre-positioning the first spar in the first and fifth receivers; pre-positioning the second spar in the second and sixth receivers; and
fixing the first and second spars with the first and second front girder parts on the first and second rear girder parts, wherein the front girder parts and the back girder parts are adapted for being assembled on a split line along a longitudinal direction of the rear girder part and the front girder part.
