Patent ID: 11097846

Abstract:
A passenger seat with a recliner sofa system includes a passenger seatback with a seatback frame and a seatback cushion. The seatback cushion is rotatable relative to the seatback frame between a stowed configuration and a deployed configuration. In some examples, in the deployed configuration, the seatback cushion extends through the seatback frame. In various examples, in the deployed configuration, the seatback cushion of a forward passenger seat abuts a seat base of an aft passenger seat. In certain examples, a method of reclining a passenger seat with a recliner sofa system includes rotating a seatback cushion of a seatback of a passenger seat relative to a seatback frame of the seatback of the passenger seat, and positioning the seatback cushion relative to the seatback frame such that a portion of the seatback cushion extends through the seatback frame.
