Support systems for portable electronic devices

1. A system for storing objects on a rear side of a passenger seat, the system comprising:

a cavity;

a divider wall disposed within the cavity; and

an upwardly extending lip forming a lower boundary of the cavity, wherein:

the divider wall separates a lower portion of the cavity into at least two compartments including a personal electronic device compartment on a rear side of the cavity and a secondary compartment on a forward side of the cavity; and

the personal electronic device compartment comprises:

at least one first retaining portion disposed on a forward side of the upwardly extending lip; and

at least one second retaining portion disposed on a rear side of the divider wall.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the secondary compartment includes a lower extremity that extends below a lower extremity of the personal electronic device compartment.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first and second retaining portions are configured to deflect when an object is inserted between the at least one first retaining portion and the at least one second retaining portion.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one second retaining portion is longer in a vertical direction than the at least one first retaining portion.

5. The system of claim 1 , further comprising an access hole on a rear side of the system such that the access hole allows access to the secondary compartment.

6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the access hole is disposed adjacent to a lower internal surface of the secondary compartment and extends across an entire width of the secondary compartment.

7. A passenger seat comprising:

a system for storing objects disposed on a rear side of the passenger seat, the system comprising:

a cavity; and

a divider wall disposed within the cavity;

a moveable tray table disposed on the rear side of the passenger seat and below the system for storing objects, wherein:

the divider wall separates a lower portion of the cavity into at least two compartments including a personal electronic device compartment on a rear side of the cavity and a secondary compartment on a forward side of the cavity; and

the moveable tray table is configured to move between a stowed position and a deployed position.

8. The passenger seat of claim 7 , further comprising an access hole that allows access to the secondary compartment.

9. The passenger seat of claim 8 , wherein the access hole is covered by the moveable tray table when in the stowed position and is accessible when the moveable tray table is in the deployed position.

10. The passenger seat of claim 8 , wherein the access hole is disposed adjacent to a lower internal surface of the secondary compartment and extends across an entire width of the secondary compartment.

11. The passenger seat of claim 7 , further comprising an electronic connection disposed on the rear side of the passenger seat and adjacent to the system for storing objects.

12. The passenger seat of claim 11 , wherein the electronic connection is disposed on a first side of the system for storing objects and closer to a lower edge of the system for storing objects.

13. The passenger seat of claim 7 , wherein the secondary compartment includes a lower extremity that extends below a lower extremity of the personal electronic device compartment.

14. The passenger seat of claim 7 , further comprising an upwardly extending lip forming a lower boundary of the cavity, wherein the personal electronic device compartment comprises:

at least one first retaining portion disposed on a forward side of the upwardly extending lip; and

at least one second retaining portion disposed on a rear side of the divider wall.

15. The passenger seat of claim 14 , wherein the first and second retaining portions are configured to deflect when an object is inserted between the at least one first retaining portion and the at least one second retaining portion.

16. The passenger seat of claim 14 , wherein the at least one second retaining portion is longer in a vertical direction than the at least one first retaining portion.

17. The passenger seat of claim 7 , further comprising a pivoting tab attached to a rear side of the divider wall.

18. The passenger seat of claim 17 , wherein:

the pivoting tab is configured to move between a stowed position and a deployed position; and

when the pivoting tab is in the stowed position, the pivoting tab fits in a notch formed in the divider wall and forms a continuous surface with the divider wall.

19. A passenger seat comprising:

a system for storing objects disposed on a rear side of the passenger seat, the system comprising:

a cavity; and

a divider wall disposed within the cavity,

an electronic connection disposed on the rear side of the passenger seat and adjacent to the system for storing objects,

wherein the divider wall separates a lower portion of the cavity into at least two compartments including a personal electronic device compartment on a rear side of the cavity and a secondary compartment on a forward side of the cavity.

20. A passenger seat comprising:

a system for storing objects disposed on a rear side of the passenger seat, the system comprising:

a cavity;

a divider wall disposed within the cavity; and

a pivoting tab attached to a rear side of the divider wall, wherein:

the divider wall separates a lower portion of the cavity into at least two compartments including a personal electronic device compartment on a rear side of the cavity and a secondary compartment on a forward side of the cavity;

the pivoting tab is configured to move between a stowed position and a deployed position; and

when the pivoting tab is in the stowed position, the pivoting tab fits in a notch formed in the divider wall and forms a continuous surface with the divider wall.
