Abstract
Disclosed is a height adjustable seat pan assembly such as for use in an aircraft cabin attendant seat. The assembly includes a seat pan supported between spaced frame members defining guide tracks including successive pivot positions each corresponding to a different seat pan height. The seat pan is movable between a deployed condition and a stowed condition in which the seat pan stows generally vertically below a backrest to provide a low profile seat in the stowed condition. Features provided on opposing sides of the seat pan interact with the successive pivot positions in the guide tracks, and the seat can be repositioned to a different pivot position to change the seat pan height. Pivoting motion of the seat pan between the stowed and deployed conditions locks or unlocks the seat pan relative to its aligned successive pivot position.
