Abstract
A mounting system may include a mounting bracket may be configured to house one or more power boxes beneath an aircraft seat. The bracket may include one or more power box mounting holes configured to receive one or more power box mounts configured to mount a power box to the mounting bracket. The bracket may include beam attachment members configured to couple the mounting bracket to the aircraft seat. The bracket may include one or more bridge members. The system may include one or more attachment brackets configured to couple the beam attachment members to beams of the aircraft seat.
Claims20
A mounting system comprising:
- a mounting bracket configured to house one or more power boxes beneath an aircraft seat, wherein the mounting bracket comprises:
- one or more power box mounting holes configured to receive one or more power box mounts, wherein the one or more power box mounts are configured to mount a power box of the one or more power boxes to the mounting bracket;
- a first beam attachment member including one or more first beam attachment holes, wherein the first beam attachment member is in a substantially horizontal plane, wherein the first beam attachment member is configured to couple the mounting bracket to a first beam of the aircraft seat via the one or more first beam attachment holes;
- a second beam attachment member including one or more second beam attachment holes, wherein the second beam attachment member is in a substantially vertical plane, wherein the first beam attachment member is arranged a select distance from the second beam attachment member, wherein the second beam attachment member is configured to couple the mounting bracket to a second beam of the aircraft seat via the one or more second beam attachment holes;
- and
- two or more bridge members, wherein the two or more bridge members are arranged between the first beam attachment member and the second beam attachment member, wherein each of the two or more bridge members are positioned a selected distance above a surface of the mounting bracket;
- and
- one or more attachment brackets configured to couple the first beam attachment member and the second beam attachment member of the mounting bracket to the first beam and the second beam, wherein the one or more attachment brackets are configured to couple to the one or more first beam attachment holes and the one or more second beam attachment holes of the mounting bracket.

An aircraft seat base assembly comprising:
- one or more structural beams, wherein the one or more structural beams include at least a first beam and a second beam;
- one or more legs coupled to the one or more structural beams;
- and
- a modular power box mounting system comprising:
- a mounting bracket configured to house one or more power boxes beneath the aircraft seat base assembly, wherein the mounting bracket comprises:
- one or more power box mounting holes configured to receive one or more power box mounts, wherein the one or more power box mounts are configured to mount a power box of the one or more power boxes to the mounting bracket;
- a first beam attachment member including one or more first beam attachment holes, wherein the first beam attachment member is in a substantially horizontal plane, wherein the first beam attachment member is configured to couple the mounting bracket to the first beam of the aircraft seat base assembly via the one or more first beam attachment holes;
- a second beam attachment member including one or more second beam attachment holes, wherein the second beam attachment member is in a substantially vertical plane, wherein the first beam attachment member is arranged a select distance from the second beam attachment member, wherein the second beam attachment member is configured to couple the mounting bracket to the second beam of the aircraft seat base assembly via the one or more second beam attachment holes;
- and
- two or more bridge members, wherein the two or more bridge members are arranged between the first beam attachment member and the second beam attachment member, wherein the two or more bridge members are positioned a selected distance above a surface of the mounting bracket;
- and
- one or more attachment brackets configured to couple the first beam attachment member and the second beam attachment member of the mounting bracket to the first beam and the second beam, wherein the one or more attachment brackets are configured to couple to the one or more first beam attachment holes and the one or more second beam attachment holes of the mounting bracket.
