Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An assembly kit for an aircraft seat comprising at least one mounting unit, at least one backrest which is fixedly coupled with the mounting unit in a state when assembled and ready for flight, and at least one connection module, via which the backrest is in particular oriented rigidly in a position relative to the mounting unit in the assembled and ready-for-flight state, and the connection module comprises at least one adjusting element, by means of which the backrest is orientable respectively in at least two different backrest adjustment angles relative to the mounting unit without requiring new approval, and/or comprises at least two connection elements, by means of which the backrest can be fixedly mounted respectively in at least two different backrest adjustment angles relative to the mounting unit, the at least two connection elements being mountable without requiring new approval.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. An assembly kit for an aircraft seat, with at least one mounting unit, with at least one backrest which is fixedly coupled with the mounting unit in a state when assembled and ready for flight, and with at least one connection module, via which the backrest is in particular oriented rigidly in a position relative to the mounting unit in the assembled and ready-for-flight state, wherein the connection module comprises at least one adjusting element, by means of which the backrest is orientable respectively in at least two different backrest adjustment angles relative to the mounting unit without requiring new approval, and/or comprises at least two connection elements, by means of which the backrest can be fixedly mounted respectively in at least two different backrest adjustment angles relative to the mounting unit, the at least two connection elements being mountable without requiring new approval, wherein without requiring new approval means that no new approval is necessary for an approved aircraft seat if the backrest adjustment angle is changed between +3 degrees and −3 degrees with respect to the standard position of the backrest, taking the manufacturing tolerance of +1 degree and −1 degree into account, and wherein the backrest is not adjustable in its assembled and ready-for-flight state. 2. The assembly kit according to claim 1 , wherein the at least two connection elements are implemented by spatially separable elements. 3. The assembly kit according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one adjusting element is implemented as an eccentric adjusting element. 4. The assembly kit according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the connection elements is realized as a plate. 5. The assembly kit according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the connection elements has at least two connection points. 6. The assembly kit at least according to claim 5 , wherein at least one of the connection elements comprises at least one first connection point, via which the at least one connection element is fixedly couplable with the mounting unit, and comprises at least one second connection point, via which the at least one connection element is fixedly couplable with the backrest. 7. The assembly kit according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the connection elements comprises at least one destruction point. 8. An aircraft seat, produced by means of an assembly kit according to claim 1 . 9. The assembly kit according to claim 1 , wherein the at least two different backrest adjustment angles include a standard angle corresponding to a standard position of the backrest and an upright angle corresponding to an upright position of the backrest, and the upright angle is no more than 4° greater than the standard angle. 10. The assembly kit according to claim 1 , wherein the at least two different backrest adjustment angles include a standard angle corresponding to a standard position of the backrest and a comfort angle corresponding to a comfort position of the backrest, and the comfort angle is no more than 4° smaller than the standard angle. 11. The assembly kit according to claim 1 , wherein the at least two different backrest adjustment angles include a standard angle corresponding to a standard position of the backrest, an upright angle corresponding to an upright position of the backrest, and a comfort angle corresponding to a comfort position of the backrest, the upright angle is no more than 4° greater than the standard angle, and the comfort angle is no more than 4° smaller than the standard angle.
