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.

A combination toilet and vanity for vehicular use comprises a toilet having a bowl and seating portion, the seating portion being horizontally displaceable for moving said seating portion into a forward position closer to a vanity whereby said seating portion may double as a vanity seat. In one embodiment, bellows extend from a seat back portion of the combination seat and tracks with the seat while the seat is displaced in a forward configuration thereby covering the toilet bowl portion.

Combination toilet and vanity

There is disclosed an airplane seat having a base member provided with a pair of tracks located 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. Located above the base member is an adjustable seat base and adjustable back member pivotally joined thereto. The seat base is connected through a shaft which cooperates with a clutch located in an opening in the top of the base and which permits universal movement of the seat base in fore, aft and lateral directions independently of the movement of the base member in a fore and aft direction. The seat is provided with a pair of adjustable arm rests, as well as being provided with adjusting linkage to raise and lower the leading edge of the seat base and the curvature of the front surface of the back member and linkage for adjusting the vertical position of the back member with respect to its relationship with the seat base, and the necessary controls for carrying out the various adjustments located on the arm rests.

Airplane seat

An assembly for disposing passenger compartment air outlet and reading light units in either a first exposed orientation or a second hidden orientation includes a utility unit, providing unit support means and actuating means linked via linkage means to pivoting unit support means, the actuating means actuating the linkage means to dispose the unit supporting means in either an exposed or hidden orientation about a pivot point. In the exposed orientation, the utility unit may provide light or air functions to the passenger depending on the utility provided within the supporting means. In the hidden orientation, the respective air or light unit is hidden from the view of the passenger and a substantially contiguous surface of the unit supporting means is instead presented.
