ABSTRACT:
A specifically configured linear one-way movement device includes first and second members defining respective first and second linearly extending planar surfaces and a coupling arrangement comprised of a series of linearly spaced first pockets in the first planar surface of the first member, a series of linearly spaced second pockets in the second planar surface of the second member and a plurality of struts, all of which cooperate with one another for allowing the first and second members to telescopically move to an extended position with respect to one another from a contracted position while at the same time preventing the members from telescopically moving back to the contracted position once it has moved to the extended position. This linear one-way movement device forms part of an overall passenger seat assembly for use in a moving vehicle but is especially suitable for use in limiting the abrupt movement of any object, not just a moving vehicle, as a result of and in response to a sudden cessation in the normal forward movement of the object caused by, for example, a head-on collision between, for example, a vehicle, carrying that object and another object, for example, another vehicle.
