Modular tray table with rotational displacement mechanism

A system for a modular tray table comprising:

• a tray table carrier unit removably mounted to a console of a seat unit;
• a tray table support element coupled to the tray table carrier unit and a tray table, the tray table support element movably supports the tray table;
• a linear displacement mechanism disposed between the tray table and the tray table support element, wherein the tray table slides along a linear displacement path between a retracted configuration and at least one deployed configuration;
• a rotational displacement mechanism disposed between the tray table and the tray table support element, the rotational displacement mechanism having at least one rotational guide defining a rotational displacement path and at least one rotational guiding element arranged in the at least one rotational guide for sliding movement along the rotational displacement path to facilitate movement of the tray table between a linear configuration and a perpendicular configuration during deployment of the tray table;
• and
• a latching mechanism associated with the modular tray table, wherein the latching mechanism holds the tray table in the retracted configuration.
