A seat leg assembly for a passenger seat, the seat leg assembly including: a seat leg member comprising a unitarily formed fitting member; and a plurality of stud members coupleable to the fitting member, wherein each of the plurality of stud members is formed of a material having an ultimate strength of at least 75 KSI.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
That which is claimed is: 1 . A seat leg assembly for a passenger seat, the seat leg assembly comprising: a seat leg member comprising a unitarily formed fitting member; and a plurality of stud members coupleable to the fitting member. 2 . The seat leg assembly of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of stud members comprises a threaded portion and each threaded portion is screwed into a respective opening in the fitting member. 3 . The seat leg assembly of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of stud members is formed of a material having an ultimate strength of at least 75 KSI. 4 . The seat leg assembly of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of stud members is formed of a different material than the seat leg member and the fitting member. 5 . The seat leg assembly of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of stud members is formed of steel or titanium and the seat leg member and the fitting member are each formed of aluminum, titanium, magnesium, steel, or alloy composites. 6 . The seat leg assembly of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the plurality of stud members is formed of a different material than the remaining stud members. 7 . The seat leg assembly of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the plurality of stud members is formed of steel or titanium and at least one other of the plurality of stud members is formed of aluminum, magnesium, or alloy composites. 8 . A passenger seat comprising a seat leg assembly comprising: a seat leg member comprising a unitarily formed fitting member; and a plurality of stud members coupleable to the fitting member. 9 . The passenger seat of claim 8 , wherein each of the plurality of stud members is formed of a material having an ultimate strength of at least 75 KSI. 10 . The passenger seat of claim 8 , wherein each of the plurality of stud members comprises a threaded portion and each threaded portion is screwed into a respective opening in the fitting member. 11 . The passenger seat of claim 8 , wherein each of the plurality of stud members is formed of a material having an ultimate strength determined based on at least one of a location of the passenger seat within an aircraft, a type of the aircraft, or a configuration of the aircraft. 12 . The passenger seat of claim 8 , wherein each of the plurality of stud members is formed of a different material than the seat leg member and the fitting member. 13 . The passenger seat of claim 8 , wherein each of the plurality of stud members is formed of steel or titanium and the seat leg member and the fitting member are each formed of aluminum, titanium, magnesium, steel, or alloy composites. 14 . The passenger seat of claim 8 , wherein at least one of the plurality of stud members is formed of steel or titanium and at least one other of the plurality of stud members is formed of aluminum, magnesium, or alloy composites. 15 . The passenger seat of claim 8 , wherein at least one of the plurality of stud members is formed of a different material than the remaining stud members. 16 . A seat leg assembly for a passenger seat, the seat leg assembly comprising: a seat leg member comprising a unitarily formed fitting member; and a plurality of stud members unitarily formed with the fitting member. 17 . The seat leg assembly of claim 16 , wherein the seat leg member and the fitting member are unitarily formed without the use of a connecting member. 18 . The seat leg assembly of claim 16 , wherein each of the plurality of stud members is formed of a material having an ultimate strength of at least 75 KSI. 19 . The seat leg assembly of claim 16 , wherein each of the plurality of stud members is formed of a different material than the seat leg member and the fitting member. 20 . The seat leg assembly of claim 16 , wherein each of the plurality of stud members, the fitting member, and the seat leg member is formed of steel or titanium.
