Abstract

A transport seat system, in particular aircraft seat system, includes at least one first seat, with at least one mounting module that is configured, for the purpose of mounting the seat, to be connected on a guide rail, and with at least one second seat, which is arranged behind the first seat with at least one mounting module that is configured, for the purpose of mounting the seat, to be connected on the same guide rail, the two seats being configured, for the purpose of implementing a usage position and a stowage position of at least one of the seats, to be displaced on the guide rail relative to one another, wherein
at least one mounting module of at least one of the seats includes a seat foot unit, which is movably supported relative at least to a portion of the mounting module.

First claim

1 . A transport seat system, in particular aircraft seat system, with at least one first seat, which comprises at least one mounting module that is configured, for the purpose of mounting the seat in a transport means, to be connected on a guide rail, and with at least one second seat, which is arranged behind the first seat and comprises at least one mounting module is configured, for the purpose of mounting the seat in the transport means, to be connected on the same guide rail, the two seats being configured, for the purpose of implementing a usage position and a stowage position of at least one of the seats, to be displaced on the guide rail relative to one another, wherein at least one mounting module of at least one of the seats comprises a seat foot unit, which is movably supported relative at least to a portion of the mounting module.

2 . The transport seat system according to claim 1 , wherein the seats each comprise a backrest, which has an upright position, preferably in particular a same position, in the usage position as well as in the stowage position.

3 . The transport seat according to claim 1 , wherein, in the stowage position, at least one of the seats is arranged with its mounting module at least partially overlapping with the mounting module of the other seat.

4 . The transport seat system according to claim 1 , wherein the movable seat foot unit is embodied as a front seat foot unit of the second seat.

5 . The transport seat system according to claim 1 , wherein the one seat foot unit of the mounting module of the one seat is movable relative to a second seat foot unit for the purpose of an adjustment between the usage position and the stowage position.

6 . The transport seat system according to claim 1 , wherein the mounting module comprises a linear bearing, via which the movable seat foot unit is displaceable with respect to the other seat foot unit.

7 . The transport seat system according to claim 4 , wherein the mounting module comprises a pivot bearing, via which the front seat foot unit is pivotable.

8 . The transport seat system according to claim 1 , wherein the mounting module of the second seat implements a base body, which implements the rear seat foot unit as well as a support region between two transverse supports of the seat.

9 . The transport seat system according to claim 1 , wherein the first seat comprises at least one trigger element, which is configured to be actuated for adjusting the first seat between a lock position and a displacement position.

10 . The transport seat system according to claim 9 , wherein the first seat comprises at least two mounting modules which are together triggered by the trigger element.

11 . The transport seat system according to claim 9 , wherein the trigger element is embodied as a luggage bar.

12 . The transport seat system according to claim 9 , wherein the first seat comprises at least one fixation element, which couples the at least one mounting module with the guide rail, wherein the fixation element comprises at least one locking element that is adjustable between a locked position and an unlocked position by the trigger element.

13 . The transport seat system according to claim 12 , wherein the first seat comprises at least one second fixation element for a connection to a second guide rail, wherein the second fixation element is actuatable together with the first fixation element by the trigger element.

14 . The transport seat system according to claim 8 , wherein the entire trigger element is movably supported in the at least one mounting module.

15 . A seat, in particular of a transport system, according to claim 1 , comprising a mounting module comprising a seat foot unit, which is movably supported relative to at least a portion of the mounting module.

16 . The seat, in particular of a transport system, according to claim 1 , comprising at least one trigger element, which is configured to be actuated for an adjustment of the first seat between a lock position and a displacement position.
