Title

(EN) REMOVABLE SEATS SYSTEM WITH LINEAR HORIZONTAL SEAT DISPLACER

(FR) SYSTÈME DE SIÈGES AMOVIBLES AVEC DISPOSITIF DE DÉPLACEMENT DE SIÈGE HORIZONTAL LINÉAIRE

Abstract

(EN) The multipurpose room may be converted between a seatless configuration and a seating configuration using a removable seats system by raising a vertically movable platform, displacing a seat member from beneath the vertically movable platform to a rearward position along a linear path and along a horizontal vector using the horizontal seat displacer, displacing the seat member vertically to a position above the vertically movable platform, displacing the seat member toward the vertically movable platform along a linear path and along a horizontal vector using the horizontal seat displacer, lowering the seat member onto the vertically movable platform to an operative position, lowering the vertically movable platform to functionally align with adjacent platforms.

(FR) La pièce polyvalente peut être convertie entre une configuration sans siège et une configuration avec sièges utilisant un système de sièges amovibles par élévation d'une plateforme mobile verticalement, déplacement d'un élément de siège depuis le dessous de la plateforme mobile verticalement vers une position arrière le long d'un trajet linéaire et le long d'un vecteur horizontal à l'aide du dispositif de déplacement de siège horizontal, déplacement de l'élément de siège verticalement vers une position au-dessus de la plateforme mobile verticalement, déplacement de l'élément de siège vers la plateforme mobile verticalement le long d'un trajet linéaire et le long d'un vecteur horizontal à l'aide du dispositif de déplacement de siège horizontal, abaissement de l'élément de siège sur la plateforme mobile verticalement vers une position fonctionnelle, abaissement de la plateforme mobile verticalement afin qu'elle s'aligne fonctionnellement avec des plateformes adjacentes.
