Abstract
A timed passenger tray with infinite position is disclosed. In embodiments, a passenger tray assembly includes a base member with a first gear/pulley coupled to the base member and a passenger tray with a second gear/pulley coupled to the passenger tray. The passenger tray assembly further includes a tray support member extending from the first gear/pulley to the second gear/pulley. The tray support member is configured to support the passenger tray and can rotate about the first gear/pulley when the passenger tray is repositioned. The passenger tray assembly further includes a timing drive at least partially disposed within the tray support member and configured to engage the first and second gears/pulleys so that the first and second gears/pulleys are simultaneously actuated when the passenger tray is repositioned in a manner that causes the tray support member to rotate about the first gear/pulley.
