ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed double airplane seats disposed in a side-by-side, inboard and outboard relationship with respect to their disposition in an airplane fuselage. The seats have a common base member provided with a pair of tracks on the bottom thereof which cooperate with a pair of tracks located on the floor of an airplane fuselage and which moves in a fore and aft direction. Fore and aft tracking is located on the top of the outboard portion of the base member and an opening is located in the top inboard portion thereof with a clutch located therein adapted to move universally in fore, aft and lateral directions. A pair of adjustable inboard and outboard seat bases having adjustable back members pivotally joined thereto are located above the base member, the inboard seat base being connected through a shaft to the clutch located in the opening of the base member and the outboard seat base being provided with tracks which cooperate with the tracking located on the top of the outboard portion of the base member, thus permitting movement of the seats independently of the movement of the base member in a fore and aft direction. The seats are provided with a pair of adjustable arm rests, disposed inboard, as well as with adjusting linkage to raise and lower the leading edges of the seat bases, the curvature of the front surfaces of the back members, and the linkage for adjusting the position of the back members and, as well, the necessary controls for achieving the adjustments which are located on the arm rests.
