ABSTRACT:
A stowable seat tray table for use with a seat, such as a passenger seat, having a tray table stowage compartment on one side of the seat. The tray table includes a tray table having a long side and a perpendicular short side with the table connected to a seat for permitting the table to be moved into and out of the stowage compartment. The table pivots and translates. The pivot movement and the translating movement permit the table to be moved when out of the stowage compartment between a use position wherein the long side of the table extends across the seat from one side to an opposing side for use by the occupant and an ingress/egress position wherein the table is pivoted about a vertical axis and laterally translated towards the stowage compartment to provide sufficient room for the passenger to ingress or to egress from the seat.
