Abstract
A seating assembly for a pilot or operator of a rotorcraft, aircraft, or other vehicle includes a seat base comprising base side panels, each panel having a cam surface on its forward face capable of accepting a cam follower. A seat bucket translates relative to the seat base, adjustably up or down through a tracking region and down through a stroking region in response to an impact event; the cam surfaces likewise include an upper portion corresponding to the tracking region and a lower portion corresponding to the stroking region. The seating assembly includes hip armor panels connected to the seat bucket and coplanar with the base side panels, each armor panel including a cam follower translatable along the cam surface such that when the seat bucket tracks through the stroking region the cam followers translate through the lower portion of the cam surface, pivoting the hip armor panels upward.
