Abstract:
Ramp mounts may facilitate the movement of a passenger seat pan relative to a passenger seat frame during movement of the seat pan between an upright position and a recline position relative to the passenger seat frame. During cycling of the seat pan from the recline position to the upright position, ramp mounts may break. Embodiments of the ramp mount disclosed herein may increase the ramp mount durability so as to reduce the instances of ramp mounts breaking during cycling of the seat pan between the recline and upright positions. Additionally, some embodiments may provide for a ramp mount that has fewer components. Such embodiments may simplify coupling of the ramp mount to a seat pan and may reduce passenger seat system assembly time. Moreover, in some embodiments, the reduced number of components may further reduce manufacturing time and/or costs—thereby providing a relatively low cost ramp mount.

Claim (Index 23):
A ramp mount for use in a passenger seat system, the ramp mount comprising:\n a first side wall having a top side, a bottom side opposite the top side, an outer surface, and an inner surface opposite the outer surface; and a second side wall spaced apart from the first side wall, the second side wall having a top side, a bottom side opposite the top side, an outer surface, and an inner surface opposite the outer surface; wherein the bottom side of the first side wall forms a first rim that extends toward the second side wall, a front end of the first rim being spaced apart from a front end of the first side wall by a first gap; wherein the bottom side of the second side wall forms a second rim that extends toward the first side wall, a front end of the second rim being spaced apart from a front end of the second side wall by a second gap; wherein the first rim and the second rim define a track configured for slideably engaging with a slider; wherein an opening of the track is defined in part by the first gap and the second gap, the opening of the track configured for receiving the slider into the track; and wherein the first side wall includes a first hole extending from the outer surface of the first side wall to the inner surface of the first side wall, wherein the first hole of the first side wall is positioned between the front end of the first side wall and the front end of the first rim, and wherein the second side wall includes a second hole extending from the outer surface of the second side wall to the inner surface of the second side wall, wherein the second hole of the second side wall is positioned between the front end of the second side wall and the front end of the second rim; wherein the first hole and the second hole are axially aligned with each other to receive a pin therethrough, wherein the pin blocks the opening to prevent the slider from disengaging with the track through the opening when the pin is received through the first and second holes.
