Passenger chair

A passenger chair for a transport means, where the

• passenger chair can be converted into a child chair, said passenger chair comprising
• a frame arranged to be attached to a floor of the transport means, and
• components interlinked in such a manner that they can rotate about axes of rotation extending horizontally and transversely relative to the frame, the components including
• a passenger back rest having side members extending along respective longitudinal sides of the passenger back rest from near the frame and upwards, and being linked at a bottom with respective upper, rear side portions of the frame, thus enabling the passenger back rest to be rotated above a first axis of rotation between a rear position, wherein the passenger back rest extends upwards and backwards, and a front position wherein the passenger back rest extends upwards and forwards,
• a first flap with an upper end portion linked with an upper portion of the passenger back rest, where the first flap can rotate about a second axis of rotation and form a child's back rest, and
• at least one mechanism connected to the frame and the passenger back rest respectively,
• the passenger back rest having a second flap with first and second end portions mounted opposite each other, the first end portion being linked with a lower end portion of the first flap, thus enabling the flaps to rotate relative to one another about a third axis of rotation, and
• the mechanism being arranged to move the second flap forcibly about the third axis of rotation and the first flap about the second axis of rotation when the passenger back rest is rotated about the first axis of rotation, whereby the first flap forms a child's back rest and the second flap forms a child seat of a child chair facing in the other direction relative to the passenger chair when the passenger back rest has been rotated to the front position,
• the mechanism including at least one control arm moving the second end portion of the second flap towards an upper portion of the passenger back rest, and
• a spring device being connected to a front portion of the frame and a portion which is securely connected to the side member, and which is located below the first axis of rotation, whereby a force which is exerted by the spring device attempts to rotate the passenger back rest in a first direction relative to the frame.
