Armrest structure and aircraft seat assebly thereof
An armrest structure and an aircraft seat assembly thereof are disclosed. The armrest structure includes an armrest body and two support plates. The armrest body is disposed between two aircraft seats. The shape of the support plates correspond to the armrest body and the support plates are disposed at two sides of the armrest body respectively. Each of the support plates has a first position and a second position. The support plates combine with the armrest body to form an armrest when the support plates are at the first position. The support plates and the armrest body are vertical to each other so that a hand of the passenger can rest on the support plates when the support plates are in the second position.
1. An armrest structure, comprising:
an arm body set between two adjacent aircraft seats, wherein the arm body is a T-shaped structure from a top view; and
two supporting boards, shaped corresponding to the arm body, and pivotally connected to two sides of the arm body respectively, each of the two supporting boards having a first position and a second position, when the two supporting boards in the first position, the two supporting boards integrated with the arm body to form an arm, when the two supporting boards in the second position, the two supporting boards perpendicular to the arm body, for supporting hands of passengers seated on both the two aircraft seats, wherein the arm body includes two recess portions to form the T-shaped structure from the top view, and the two supporting boards are set within the recess portions from the top view.
2. The armrest structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein an end of the two supporting boards and a side of the two supporting boards near the arm body are pivotally set within the recess portion, and the side of the two supporting boards is near a seat cushion of the two adjacent aircraft seats.
3. The armrest structure as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the two supporting boards are turned to the seat cushion of the two adjacent aircraft seats, so that the two supporting boards are rotated from the first position into the second position.
4. The armrest structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the widths of the two supporting boards are less than the width of the arm body, an end of the two supporting boards and a side of the two supporting boards near the arm body are pivotally set within the recess portion, and the side of the two supporting boards is opposite to a seat cushion of the two adjacent aircraft seats.
5. The armrest structure as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the two supporting boards are turned to the seat cushion of the two adjacent aircraft seats so that the two supporting boards are rotated from the first position into the second position.
6. The armrest structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein an end of the two supporting boards and a side of the two supporting boards near the arm body are pivotally set within the recess portion, and the side of the two supporting boards is opposite to a seat cushion of the two adjacent aircraft seats.
7. The armrest structure as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the two supporting boards are turned to the seat cushion of the two adjacent aircraft seats, so that the two supporting boards are rotated from the first position into the second position, where the two supporting boards and the arm body are integrated in a reverse T-shape.
8. An aircraft seat assembly, comprising:
a plurality of aircraft seats set adjacently with each other; and
at least one armrest structure, comprising:
an arm body set between a plurality of aircraft seats, wherein the arm body is a T-shaped structure from a top view; and
two supporting boards, shaped corresponding to the arm body, and pivotally connected to two sides of the arm body respectively, each of the two supporting boards having a first position and a second position, when the two supporting boards in the first position, the two supporting boards integrated with the arm body to form an arm, when the two supporting boards in the second position, the two supporting boards perpendicular to the arm body, for supporting hands of passengers seated on the aircraft seats, wherein the arm body includes two recess portions to form the T-shaped structure from the top view, and the two supporting boards are set within the recess portions from the top view.
9. The aircraft seat assembly as claimed in claim 8 , wherein an end of the two supporting boards and a side of the two supporting boards near the arm body are pivotally set within the recess portion, and the side of the two supporting boards is near a seat cushion of the aircraft seat.
10. The aircraft seat assembly as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the two supporting boards are turned to the seat cushion of the aircraft seat, so that the two supporting boards are rotated from the first position into the second position.
11. The aircraft seat assembly as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the width of the two supporting boards is less than the width of the arm body, an end of the two supporting boards and a side of the two supporting boards near the arm body are pivotally set within the recess portion, and the side of the two supporting boards is opposite to a seat cushion of the aircraft seat.
12. The aircraft seat assembly as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the two supporting boards are rotated corresponding to the seat cushion of the aircraft seat, so that the two supporting boards are rotated from the first position into the second position.
13. The aircraft seat assembly as claimed in claim 8 , wherein an end of the two supporting boards and a side of the two supporting boards near the arm body are pivotally set within the recess portion, and the side of the two supporting boards is opposite to a seat cushion of the aircraft seat.
14. The aircraft seat assembly as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the two supporting boards are rotated forward to the seat cushion of the aircraft seat, so that the two supporting boards are rotated from the first position into the second position, where the two supporting boards and the arm body are integrated in a reverse T-shape.
