Abstract
A passenger seat assembly for installation in a conveyance such as an aircraft. The passenger seat assembly includes at least one passenger seat supported by a frame assembly, a footwell positioned below the at least one passenger seat, and a fixed shell mounted to the back of the frame assembly. The fixed shell extends across the back of the passenger seat assembly, and extends from the footwell space upward to about armrest height. In use, the fixed shell closes out a portion of the back of the passenger seat assembly to provide protection for surrounding passengers as the at least one passenger seat adjusts between upright and reclined.
