[0001] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a retractable support for a screen, of the type comprising: a housing for receiving the screen in a retracted position, and an arm movably mounted relative to the housing between a retracted position within the housing and a deployed position outside the housing, the arm including a proximal end of the hinge at the housing and a distal hinge end at the housing. 'screen.
[0002] The present invention also relates to an interior arrangement of an aircraft cabin comprising such a support. Such an assembly is intended to be mounted in an aircraft cabin to participate in the comfort of the occupants of the cabin. It is common to equip aircraft cabins with screens for use by passengers. These screens can be intended to inform passengers about the flight parameters, but also can allow them to access multimedia content. These screens are often embedded in a fixed element of the cabin, which makes their consultation inconvenient for passengers. It has therefore been developed support members of these screens, comprising an arm having an attachment end to a fixed element of the cabin and a hinge end to the screen. These support members are generally adapted to support the screen facing a cabin chair, so as to allow easy viewing of the screen by a passenger sitting in said chair. For safety reasons, aircraft certification requires that each screen present in the aircraft be retracted or stowed during certain critical phases of flight of the aircraft, including take-off and landing. In some cases also, the passenger may wish for his own comfort that the screen is retracted, for example that this screen does not hinder its movement inside the aircraft. Therefore, the support members are designed to allow the movement of the screen between a position of use facing the cabin chair and a storage position. A known storage position is a retracted position within an armrest of the chair. However, provide such a storage position for the screen poses significant constraints on the design of the chair, especially the armrest, including preventing the realization of certain forms of armrests or retractable armrests.
[0003] 3036342 2 In recent years, with the rise of touch tablets, passengers board more and more often on board aircraft with their own touch pad, tablet they usually want to consult during the flight. In most cases, the passengers have no support at their disposal, and must therefore put their tablet on their knees, which forces them to constantly tilt their head downwards and may in the long run cause back pain or cervical. In addition, the tablet can easily fall on the floor of the cabin and deteriorate in case of acceleration or sudden deceleration of the aircraft, for example when the latter is in an area of turbulence.
[0004] In order to overcome these drawbacks, tablet support devices for aircraft have been developed recently. These support devices are generally in the form of an articulated arm having a proximal end attached to the side edge of the car (better known as the "side ledge") and a distal end with a jaw dimensions adapted to capture and hold different models of tablets. This arm to be stored during critical phases of flight, the arm is usually removable, which poses the problem of storage of said arm, but also the tablet that it supports. A partial solution is provided by a known system consisting of a shelf support device comprising a retractable articulated arm in a housing formed in the side edge of the cabin. However, the small volume of the housing is incompatible with the receipt of a tablet inside said housing. If the problem of arm storage is solved by this known system, there remains the problem of storing the tablet during critical phases of flight.
[0005] It would thus be desirable to be able to retract not only the support device inside the side edge of the car, but also the shelf. However, the lateral rim is very congested, especially since it is already used to store the tables of the aircraft during critical phases of flight, as described in the patent application FR 15 00208. The space available for the storage of other Elements, such as touch pads, within the side rim are therefore very small. An object of the invention is therefore to allow to retract both a screen and its support in a small space. For this purpose, the object of the invention is a retractable support of the aforementioned type, in which the arm comprises first and second rigid sections articulated with respect to each other so that the second section pivots relatively at the first section about a first pivot axis between a compact configuration, in which the second section is embedded in a recess of the first section, and an extended configuration, wherein the second section extends out of said recess. With this feature, the arm can occupy a very compact configuration when retracted within the housing, which minimizes the space occupied by said arm and free up space for storage of the tablet inside the dwelling. It is thus possible to make a support having a reduced-size housing and easily accommodated in the side edge of an aircraft cabin. According to particular embodiments of the invention, the retractable support 10 also has one or more of the following characteristics, taken in isolation or according to any combination (s) technically possible (s): - the second stretch defines the distal end; the arm comprises a third rigid section hinged to the first section so as to pivot relative to the first section about a second axis of pivoting between a folded position, in which the first and third sections are contiguous to each other; over substantially their entire length, and an unfolded position; the first and second pivot axes are substantially parallel to one another; The first and third sections are each substantially rectilinear and, in the unfolded position, the first and third sections are substantially orthogonal to one another; - In compact configuration, the distal end is interposed between the first and second pivot axes and, in extended configuration, the first pivot axis 25 is interposed between the distal end and the second pivot axis; the arm comprises a fourth rigid section articulated to the third section so as to pivot relative to the third section around a third pivot axis; the second and third pivot axes are substantially orthogonal to each other; the fourth section defines the proximal end; the third section is substantially rectilinear while being elongated in a direction of elongation, and the third pivot axis is substantially parallel to said direction of elongation; The retractable support comprises a sliding connection for sliding of the proximal end of the arm relative to the housing in a direction of sliding; - The sliding direction is substantially parallel to the elongation direction 5 of the third section; the housing defines a first reception space of the screen in the retracted position and a second reception space of the arm in the retracted position, the housing also having a generally T-shaped opening through which the first and second reception spaces open. outside the housing, the T bar constituting the part of the opening through which the first reception space opens out of the housing, and the foot of the T constituting the part of the opening through which the second reception area opens out of the dwelling; the retractable support comprises a member for fixing the screen to the support, and an articulated connection for the articulation of the fastener member at the distal end of the arm around at least two axes. the first section has an envelope and comprises a body extending over substantially the entire width of the envelope, taken parallel to the first axis of pivoting, and a finger projecting from the body being shifted in a direction parallel to the first axis of pivoting with respect to a median longitudinal axis 20 of the envelope, the body having a face of which at least a portion is arranged recessed towards the inside of the first section relative to the envelope in one direction perpendicular to the median longitudinal axis and the first pivot axis, a first space being defined between said portion and the envelope, the finger having a side face disposed inwardly of the first section relative to the next envelope 25 a direction parallel to the first pivot axis, a second space being defined between said lateral face and the envelope, the first and second e spaces being contiguous to each other, the recess being formed by the meeting of the first and second spaces. The invention also relates to an interior assembly assembly of an aircraft cabin, comprising a console comprising at least one retractable support 30 as defined above. According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the console constitutes a lateral edge of the cabin. Other features and advantages of the invention will become apparent on reading the following description, given solely by way of example and with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which: FIG. perspective, partially from above, of an interior arrangement according to the invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view, partly from above, of a cup holder of the interior arrangement of FIG. 1 3 is a perspective view, partially from above and from the front, of two screen supports of the interior arrangement of FIG. 1, FIG. 4 is a perspective view, partly from above and from Figure 5 is a top view of a section of the arm of Figure 4, Figure 6 is an elevational view, from the side, of the arm of one of the supports of Figure 3; Figure 4, in a deployed configuration, Figure 7 is a sim view 2 to 6, the arm being in an intermediate configuration, FIG. 8 is a view similar to that of FIG. 6, the arm being in a retracted configuration, FIG. 9 is a schematic view, in section, of one of the supports of FIG. 3, the arm of said support being in a retracted position, FIG. 10 is a view similar to that of FIG. 9, an unlocking member of the arm being actuated, and Figure 11 is a view similar to that of Figure 9 with the arm being deployed. An interior fitting assembly 10 of a cabin 12 of an aircraft according to the invention is illustrated by FIGS. 1 to 11.
[0006] The cabin 12 of the aircraft is delimited laterally by the fuselage 14 and downwards by a floor 16. It extends here along a longitudinal axis A-A '. The layout assembly 10 is mounted in the cabin 12 to be accessible to the occupants of the cabin 12. It comprises a bracket 20 comprising a frame 21 having a flank 22 extending substantially vertically and an upper support plate 30 defining 24 a substantially horizontal object support surface 26. The console 20 extends along a horizontal main axis B-B '. In the example shown, this axis B-B 'extends substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of cabin A-A', and the console 20 is arranged along the fuselage 14; the console 20 thus constitutes a lateral edge ("side ledge" in English) of the cabin 12. Other configurations 35 of orientation of the console 20 are nevertheless possible.
[0007] The console 20 comprises two retractable cup holders 30 and two retractable supports 32 for screens. Preferably, the console 20 also comprises a table (not shown) retractable inside the console 20 identical to that described in the patent application FR 0 00208, and whose masking cover, defining a part of the surface 26, is designated by the reference 34 in Figure 1. In the example shown, the retractable supports 32 are juxtaposed along the axis BB 'being arranged behind the masking cover 34, that is to say say between the fuselage 14 and the masking cover 34. Furthermore, the cup holders 30 frame the retractable supports 32 along the axis B-B '.
[0008] Referring to Figure 2, each cup holder 30 comprises a first fixed portion relative to the frame 21, a second portion 42 movable relative to the frame 21, and a member 44 for guiding the movement of the second portion 42 relative to the first part 40 to limit this displacement to a translation in a vertical direction substantially orthogonal to the floor 16.
[0009] The first portion 40 is constituted by a saucer flush with the support surface 26. The second portion 42 is constituted by a split ring extending substantially parallel to the saucer 40. It is movable relative to the first portion 40 between a retracted position , in which it is contiguous to the first part 40, and an extended position, in which it is away from the first part 40. The guide member 44 comprises a guide chamber 46, integral with the first part 40, and a guide appendage 48, integral with the second portion 42. The guide chamber 46 is defined inside an outgrowth 49 protruding 25 substantially vertically towards the inside of the bracket 20 from the first part 40 The guiding appendage 48 projects substantially vertically towards the interior of the console 20 from the second portion 42 and is received inside the chamber 48. The chamber 4 6 and the guide appendix 48 have substantially complementary shapes. Each of the chamber 46 and the guide appendage 48 has a particular shape of a cylinder arc. Preferably, each cup holder 30 also comprises a member (not shown) for returning the second part 42 to its extended position, and a member (not shown) for locking the second part 42 in the retracted position, said locking member being a latching locking member adapted to be unlocked under the effect of a pressure exerted on the second portion 42 in the direction of translation, towards the bottom of the chamber 46. Such locking members 3036342 7 being known and commonly used in the push buttons and in the retractable tip pens, this locking member will not be described in more detail here. Alternatively (not shown), the locking member is not adapted to be unlocked under the effect of a pressure exerted on the second portion 42 in the direction of translation. An unlocking member is then provided, adapted to unclip the locking member, said unlocking member being operable by a user by means of a control button disposed on the support surface 26, near the cup holder 30. Referring to Figure 3, each retractable support 32 comprises a housing 50, fixed relative to the frame 21, and an arm 52 movable relative to the frame 21, said arm 52 comprising a proximal end 54 of articulation to the housing 50 and a The housing 50 defines a first space 60 for receiving the screen 58 in a retracted position inside the housing 50, and a second reception space 62. of the arm 52 in a retracted position within the housing 50. The housing 50 also has an opening 64, through which the first and second receiving spaces 60, 62 open to the outside. housing 50, and a bottom (not shown), opposite the opening 64. The first receiving space 60 is sized to receive the vertically oriented screen 58 and in landscape format, i.e. the largest dimension of the screen 58 oriented substantially horizontally, with at least 50%, preferably at least 80%, of the screen 58 contained in the housing 50, the portion of the screen 58 not contained in the housing 50 if necessary beyond the housing 50 through the opening 64. For this purpose, the first receiving space 60 has a substantially parallelepipedal shape, with a larger dimension direction oriented substantially parallel to the axis B-B ' , and a direction of smaller dimension oriented substantially horizontally and orthogonal to the axis B-B '. The second receiving space 62 has a shape substantially complementary to that of the arm 52 when in a retracted configuration which will be described in detail hereinafter. Preferably, the first and second receiving spaces 60, 62 communicate directly with each other. Alternatively (not shown), the first and second receiving spaces 60, 62 are separated from each other by a partition. The opening 64 has a general T-shape, the T-bar 66 constituting the part of the opening 64 through which the first receiving space 60 opens out of the housing 50, and the foot 68 of the T constituting the part of the opening 64 through which the second receiving space 62 opens out of the housing 50. The bar 66 of the T is in particular longer than the foot 68 of the T, for example eight times longer than the foot 68 of the T, and the foot 68 of the T is advantageously thicker than the bar 66 of the T, for example twice as thick as the bar 66 of T. Preferably, as shown, the foot 68 of the T is substantially at equidistant from the ends of the bar 66 of the T. In the example shown, the recesses 50 of the two supports 32 are fused with each other, so that the first receiving spaces 60 of said recesses 50 are in direct communication with each other. with each other. In a variant (not shown), a partition separates the housings 50 from the two supports 32 from one another.
[0010] The arm 52 is movably mounted relative to the housing 50 between a retracted position within the second receiving space 62 and a deployed position outside the second receiving space 62. Referring to FIG. is an articulated arm comprising a plurality of rigid sections 70, 72, 74, 76 movable relative to one another between a retracted configuration of the arm 52, shown in FIG. 8, in which the bulk of the arm 52 is minimal, and an expanded configuration of the arm 52, shown in FIG. 6, in which the distal end 56 is at a maximum distance from the proximal end 54. Said sections 70, 72, 74, 76 include a first segment 70, a second section Section 72, a third section 74, and a fourth section 76. In the example shown, each of said sections 70, 72, 74, 76 is rectilinear. Alternatively (not shown), the sections 70, 72, 74, 76 have shapes other than rectilinear, and are for example curved. The first section 70 is elongate in a first direction of elongation. It has a first axis of elongation E1-E1 ', constituted by a median longitudinal axis of the section 70 oriented along the first direction of elongation. The first section 70 has a parallelepipedal envelope 78 which is constituted by the smallest parallelepiped containing integrally the first section 70. It defines a recess 80 for receiving the second section 72 with respect to said parallelepipedal envelope 78, said recess 80 being adapted to contain the second section 72 with a volume of the second section 72 contained in the recess 80 at least equal to 80% of the volume of the second section 72. Preferably, the recess 80 is adapted to completely contain the second section 72. section 70 also has opposing first and second ends 82, 84 taken in the first direction of elongation. The first end 82 constitutes an articulation end to the second section 72, and the second end 84 constitutes an articulation end to the third section 74. With reference to FIG. 5, the first section 70 comprises a body 130 defining the second end 84, and a finger 132 projecting from an end 5 of the body 130 opposite the second end 84, said finger 132 defining the first end 82. The body 130 extends over substantially its entire length, over substantially the entire width of the casing 78, taken parallel to a first pivot axis P1-P1 'of the first section 70 relative to the second section 72. In other words, the body 130 comprises two lateral faces 134, 136 opposed, each of said faces flush with the casing 78 over substantially the entire length of the body 130, taken along the elongation axis El-El '. The body 130 is thus centered laterally with respect to the axis of elongation E1-E1 '. The body 130 also includes a substantially planar bottom face 138 (FIG. 6) flush with the shell 78 over substantially the entire length of the body 130 and substantially the entire width of the body 130. The body 130 includes in addition to an upper face 140 opposite to the lower face 138. The upper face 140 comprises an upper flat portion 142, a lower flat portion 144 and, between said planar portions 142, 144, an inclined portion 146. The upper planar portions 142 and lower portion 144 are substantially parallel to each other and to the lower face 138. The upper planar portion 142 extends between the second end 84 and the inclined portion 146, a side face 134 of the portion 70 to the face lateral side 136 opposite.
[0011] It is flush with the envelope 78. The lower planar portion 144 extends between the finger 132 and the inclined portion 146 of a side face 134 of the section 70 to the opposite side face 136. The lower planar portion 144 is recessed inwardly of the section 70 with respect to the casing 78. The part of the body 130 which defines this lower planar portion 144 is therefore offset with respect to the elongation axis El- El 'in a direction perpendicular to the elongation axis El-El' and the first pivot axis P1-P1 '. A first space 148 is thus defined between the lower planar portion 144 and the casing 78. In the example shown (see in particular Figure 6), the elongation axis El-El 'passes through the first space 148. The The lower flat portion 144 is thus oriented towards the El-El 'elongation axis.
[0012] The finger 132 is offset laterally with respect to the elongation axis El-El '. In particular, the finger 132 is positioned integrally on the same side of the elongation axis El-El '. The finger 132 comprises a first substantially flat lateral face 150 which is flush with the envelope 78. This first lateral face 150 extends substantially in the extension of a lateral face 134 of the body 130. The finger 132 also comprises a second lateral face 152 substantially flat and substantially parallel to the first side face 150. This second side face 152 is recessed towards the inside of the section 70 relative to the casing 78; a second space 154 is thus defined between the second lateral face 152 and the envelope 78. In particular, the second face 152 is flush with the elongation axis El-El '. The finger 132 further comprises a lower face 156 (Figure 6). This lower face 156 comprises a lower flat portion 158 (Figure 6) and an inclined portion 160 (Figure 6).
[0013] The lower planar portion 158 is flush with the casing 78. It extends substantially in the extension of the lower face 134 of the body 130. The inclined portion 160 extends from the lower planar portion 158 to the first end 82. It is substantially flat. It is oriented opposite the body 130.
[0014] The finger 132 finally comprises an upper face 162. This upper face 162 comprises an upper flat portion 164 and an inclined portion 166. The upper flat portion 164 is flush with the casing 78. It extends from the inclined portion 166 to the first end 82, over substantially the entire width of the finger 132.
[0015] The inclined portion 166 extends between the body 130 and the upper planar portion 164. It is substantially planar. It is oriented towards the body 130. In the example shown, it is substantially parallel to the inclined portion 160. The first and second spaces 148, 154 are contiguous to each other. The recess 80 is formed by the joining of said first and second spaces 148, 154.
[0016] Returning to Figure 4, the second section 72 is elongate in a second direction of elongation. It has a second axis of elongation E2-E2 ', constituted by a median longitudinal axis of the section 72 oriented along the second direction of elongation. The second section 72 comprises first and second opposite ends 86, 88 taken in the second direction of elongation. The first end 86 constitutes an articulation end at the first section 70, and the second end 88 defines the distal end 56.
[0017] The third section 74 is elongate in a third direction of elongation. It has a third axis of elongation E3-E3 ', constituted by a median longitudinal axis of the section 74 oriented along the third direction of elongation. The third section 74 has a generally parallelepipedal shape substantially identical to that of the parallelepipedal envelope 78. The third section 74 has opposite first and second ends 90, 92 taken in the third direction of elongation. The first end 90 constitutes an articulation end at the first section 70, and the second end 92 constitutes an articulation end at the fourth section 76.
[0018] The fourth section 76 defines the proximal end 54. It is arranged in the extension of the third section 74; in other words, at least a portion of the third section 74 is traversed by the third axis of elongation E3-E3 '. As seen in FIGS. 6 to 8, the first section 70 is articulated with respect to the second section 72 so that the second section 72 pivots relatively to the first section 70 about the first pivot axis P1-P1 'between a configuration compact, shown in Figure 8, wherein the second section 72 is embedded in the recess 80, and an extended configuration, shown in Figure 6, wherein the second section 72 extends out of said recess 80 and therefore out of parallelepipedic casing 78. By "recessed in recess 80", it is understood that the second section 72 is contained predominantly within recess 80, at least 80% of the volume of second section 72 being contained at Inside the recess 80. Preferably, the second section 72 is integrally embedded in the recess 80 when the first and second sections 70, 72 are in a compact configuration. e, that is to say that the second section 72 does not protrude from the recess 80. Thus, when the first and second sections 70, 72 are in compact configuration, the bulk of said sections 70, 72 is limited to the bulk of the parallelepipedal envelope 78 of the first section 70. The first pivot axis P1-P1 'is substantially orthogonal to the first and second axes of elongation E1-E1', E2-E2 '. In compact configuration, the first and second elongation axes E E1 'E2-E2' are parallel to one another, and are in particular substantially coaxial. In extended configuration, the first and second elongation axes E1-E1 ', E2-E2' form an angle with each other.
[0019] Regardless of the relative positions of the first and second sections 70, 72, the first and second elongation axes E1-E1 ', E2-E2' are contained in the same plane. The compact configuration corresponds to the configuration occupied by the first 5 and second sections 70, 72 when the arm 52 is in retracted configuration. The extended configuration corresponds to the configuration occupied by the first and second sections 70, 72 when the arm 52 is in deployed configuration. In a compact configuration, the distal end 56 is interposed between the first and second ends 82, 84 of the first segment 70. In extended configuration, on the other hand, the first end 82 is interposed between the distal end 56 and the second end 84. This allows a large deployment of the arm 52. The first section 70 further comprises, at its first end 82, the abutment surfaces 94 for the second section 72 in extended configuration. These abutment surfaces 94 are parallel to the first pivot axis P1-P1 '. They are adapted to cooperate with complementary abutment surfaces 96 of the second section 72, so as to provide solid support for the second section 72 in an extended configuration and to prevent the second section 72 from driving the weight of the screen 58. does not rotate beyond the extended configuration. In the example shown, one of these abutment surfaces 94 is formed by the upper flat portion 164 of the upper face 162 of the finger 132. The first section 70 is also articulated with respect to the third section 74 so that the third section 74 pivots relative to the first section 70 about a second pivot axis P2-P2 'between a folded position, shown in Figure 8, in which the first and third sections 70, 74 are contiguous to each other. other over substantially their entire length, and an unfolded position, shown in Figure 6, wherein the first and third sections 70, 74 are substantially orthogonal to each other. In other words, in the folded position, the first and third elongation axes El-El ', E3-E3' are parallel to one another, the first and third sections 70, 74 being juxtaposed one with the other. to the other and, in unfolded position, the first and third elongation axes E1-E1 ', E3-E3' are orthogonal to each other. Preferably, the interface between the first and third sections 70, 74 has a coefficient of friction sufficiently high to allow the maintenance of the first and third sections 70, 74 in the unfolded position by the sole effect of the friction force between said sections 70 , 74. Alternatively (not shown), an indexed ball 35 or notch system is provided at said interface.
[0020] Advantageously, the interface between the first and third sections 70, 74 comprises a stop (not shown) adapted to prevent the pivoting of the third section 74 beyond the unfolded position. In folded configuration, the first and third elongation axes El-E1 ', E3-E3' 5 are contained in the same plane, said plane being parallel to the second pivot axis P2-P2 '. In unfolded position, the first and third elongation axes E1-E1 ', E3-E3' are contained in different planes, said planes being spaced apart from each other along the second pivot axis P2-P2 ' . The first and second pivot axes P1-P1 ', P2-P2' are substantially parallel to one another. They are preferably substantially horizontal. The second pivot axis P2-P2 'is substantially orthogonal to the first and third elongation axes E1-E1', E3-E3 '. The folded position corresponds to the position occupied by the third section 74 when the arm 52 is in the retracted configuration, and the unfolded position corresponds to the position occupied by the third section 74 when the arm 52 is in the deployed configuration. Thus, when the arm 52 is in the retracted configuration, the elongation axes El-El ', E2-E2', E3-E3 'are all contained in the same plane, and the size of the arm 52 is limited to congestion of a parallelepiped formed by the apposition of the parallelepipedal envelope 78 and the third section 74: the arm 52 is then very compact. The fourth section 76 is articulated to the third section 74 so as to pivot relative to the third section 74 about a third pivot axis P3-P3 'substantially parallel to the third axis of elongation E3-E3', and in particular substantially coaxial with said third axis of elongation E3-E3 '.
[0021] The third pivot axis P3-P3 'is substantially orthogonal to the first and second pivot axes P1-P1', P2-P2 '. It is preferably substantially vertical. It thus allows a passenger who is not facing the console 20 to orient the arm 52, and therefore the screen 58, in its direction. Advantageously, the interface between the third and fourth sections 74, 76 comprises a stop (not shown) adapted to prevent the pivoting of the fourth section 76 to more than 10 ° in one direction and more than 90 ° in the other direction beyond a position in which the screen 58 is substantially parallel to the larger dimension of the first receiving space 60. Returning to Figure 4, each support 32 also comprises a fastener 100 screen 58 to the support 32, an articulated connection 102 for the articulation of the fixing member 100 to the distal end 56 of the arm 52, and a slide connection (not shown 3036342 14) for the sliding of the proximal end 54 of the arm 52 relative to the housing 50. The screen 58 is, in the example shown, a personal touch pad. The fixing member 100 is therefore a reversible fastener adapted so that a passenger can easily attach the screen 58 to the support 32 and can easily detach the screen 58 from the support 32. For this purpose, the fastener 100 comprises a body 108 and at least one pair of jaws 110, 112 movably mounted in translation relative to the body 108 between a release configuration of the screen 58, in which the jaws 110, 112 are moved away from one another. another along an axis, and a pinch configuration of the screen 58, wherein the jaws 110, 112 are brought closer to each other along said axis. A locking member (not shown) makes it possible to retain the jaws 110, 112 in the nip configuration. In the example shown, the fixing member 100 comprises a single pair of jaws 110, 112. Alternatively (not shown), the fixing member 100 comprises two pairs of jaws 110, 112, the axes of said pairs of jaws 110, 112. jaws being oriented substantially perpendicular to each other, said pairs of jaws being operable jointly by means of a common control member. In the example shown, the fixing member 100 further comprises a removable interface element 113 forming the interface of the fixing member 100 with the arm 52. This interface element 113 is fixed to the arm by the intermediate of the hinged connection 102, and it is attached to the body 108 via a detachable connection 115. In the example shown, this detachable connection 115 comprises complementary snap-on members carried by the interface element 113 and by the body 108.
[0022] Alternatively (not shown), the detachable link 115 includes a rib attached to one of the interface member 113 and the body 108, and a complementary groove formed in the other one of the interface member 113. and the body 108. As a further variant (not shown), the detachable connection 115 comprises two magnets carried one by the interface element 113 and the other by the body 108.
[0023] In another embodiment of the invention (not shown), the screen 58 is fixedly fixed to the support 32. The fixing member 100 is then typically constituted by a support element on which the screen 58 is screwed, sucked, clipped or glued. The hinged connection 102 is adapted to allow rotation of the fastener 100 relative to the arm 52 about at least two axes (not shown) not parallel to the second axis of elongation E2-E2 '.
[0024] Preferably, the hinged connection 102 has a high coefficient of friction so as to allow the fastener 100 to be held in position by the sole effect of the friction force. In the example shown, the articulated connection 102 is constituted by a ball joint 5, so as to allow the rotation of the fastener 100 relative to the arm 52 not only around said two axes not parallel to the second axis of elongation E2 -E2 ', but also around the second elongation axis E2-E2'. The hinged connection 102 is thus adapted to allow the screen 52 to be oriented both in landscape mode and in portrait mode.
[0025] A recess (not shown) is then provided in the distal end 56 of the arm 52 to allow the ball joint to be housed in the arm 52 when the arm 52 is in the retracted configuration. Alternatively (not shown), the hinged connection 102 is constituted by a finger ball joint, typically formed by a pivotally mounted member about a first axis relative to the distal end 56 of the arm 52 and pivotally mounted about a second axis, orthogonal to the first axis, relative to the fixing member 100. Referring to Figure 9, the slide connection is adapted to allow sliding of the proximal end 54 of the arm 52 relative to the housing 50 in a direction sliding C-C '. The retraction of the arm 52 in the housing 50 and the deployment of the arm 52 out of the housing 50 is therefore done by moving the arm 52 in said sliding direction C-C '. The sliding direction C-C 'is in particular substantially parallel to the third axis of elongation E3-E3'. The support 32 also comprises a member 114 for biasing the arm 52 towards its extended position, and a member 116 for locking the arm 52 in the retracted position, said locking member 116 being a snap locking member. In the example shown, the support 32 further comprises an unlocking member 118 adapted to unclamp the locking member 116, said unlocking member 118 comprising an actuating button 119 disposed at the first end 90 of the third section 74. Alternatively (not shown), the locking member 116 is adapted to be unlocked under the effect of a pressure exerted on the arm 52 in the direction of sliding towards the bottom of the housing 50. Such locking members By being known and commonly used in pushbuttons and retractable point pens, this locking member will not be further described here.
[0026] The support 32 also comprises a member 120 for supplying the screen 58 with electrical energy. The screen 58 being, in the example shown, a personal touch pad, the power supply member 120 is constituted by an electrical socket, typically a USB socket, electrically connected to a source of electrical energy (not shown). . Preferably, the electrical outlet 120 is disposed under a hatch articulated by a pivot to the housing 50. Advantageously, the supports 32 are symmetrical to one another with respect to a median vertical plane arranged equidistant from the supports 32.
[0027] A method of handling one of the supports 32 will now be described, with reference to FIGS. 3 to 11. The arm 52 is initially retracted into the housing 50, with no shield attached to the support 32. The arm 52 is itself in retracted configuration, that is to say that the second section 72 is embedded in the recess 80 of the first section 70, and the first and third sections 70, 74 are joined one to the other. other over substantially all of their length. The second end 84 of the first section 70 and the first end 90 of the third section 74 are then flush with the opening 64, and the fastener 100 is housed in the first receiving space 60 of the housing 50. A passenger exercises all of first press the actuating button 119.
[0028] This has the effect of unlocking the locking member 116. Under the effect of the return member 114, the arm 52 extends out of the housing 50, and the fixing member 100 leaves the first receiving space 60 The arm 52 is then in retracted configuration, out of the housing 50, and the fixing member 100 is also out of the housing 50. The passenger can thus grip the fastener 100 and pull it towards him. In doing so, the passenger causes the deployment of the arm 52, which moves from its retracted configuration to its deployed configuration, as shown in FIG. 7. If the passenger does not stand facing the support 32, he can also rotate the arm 52 around the third pivot axis P3-P3 ', so as to bring the fixing member 100 facing it.
[0029] 30 Once the fastener 100 at a comfortable distance from the passenger, it inserts his personal touch pad between the jaws 110, 112 of the fastener 100, so that they come to pinch the tablet touch. He can then release his touch pad and navigate comfortably in the contents of said tablet, without having to lean forward and without having a hand occupied by the maintenance of the tablet.
[0030] If the position of the shelf does not suit him, the passenger can adjust its orientation by means of the articulated connection 102 and the articulation between the third and the fourth sections 74, 76. Moreover, the passenger can easily make switch the tablet between portrait and landscape mode by rotating it around the axis E2-E2 'by means of the articulated link 102. Finally, if the passenger finds that the battery level of the tablet is low, he can recharge the latter by connecting it to the electrical socket 120 by means of a charging cable. When the passenger has finished using the tablet and he wants to store it, he puts it in the landscape position and folds the arm 52 so that it comes back in folded configuration. The passenger also rotates the arm 52 about the third pivot axis P3-P3 ', so that the tablet is oriented parallel to the larger direction of the first receiving space 60. Finally, the passenger supports on the fastening element 100 or on the second end 84 of the first section 70, in the direction of sliding and towards the bottom of the housing 50, so as to drive the arm 52 into the housing 50. The passenger maintains this support until the arm 52 comes to a stop. The passenger then releases his pressure, and the arm 52 rises a little under the effect of the force of the return member 114, but this rise is quickly blocked by the locking member 116 which snaps; the arm 52 is then retracted into the second reception space 62, and the tablet is retracted inside the first reception space 60. Preferably, the support 32 is adapted so that, once the tablet retracted 20 into the housing 50, an upper band of said tablet, preferably between 5 and 45 mm height, remains out of the housing 50. This allows the tablet to remain visible and prevents the passenger from forgetting when descending the door. 'aircraft. Thanks to the invention described above, it becomes possible to retract both a screen and its support in the lateral rim of an aircraft, while allowing easy manipulation of the screen.
