Abstract
An aircraft seat formed of a container having a horizontal top surface and opposed paralleled downwardly extending sides, a seat base supported parallel to and above the container top surface, an aircraft seat being supported on the seat base, a plurality of low friction pads interposed between the container top surface and the seat base to permit the seat base to be easily moved relative to the container, the seat base and the container top having aligned openings therethrough, a shaft received in the openings and rigidly connected to a brake plate positioned below the container top, a spring urging the brake plate upwardly to lock the seat base relative to the container and an actuating member affixed to the seat base and extending over the shaft providing a mechanism for downward displacement of the shaft to thereby release the force of the brake plate to thereby allow the seat base to be moved and/or rotated relative to the container.
