Abstract
An offset leg assembly for a passenger seat for a vehicle such as an aircraft is provided. The leg assembly can include a base leg portion having a lower end configured to operably couple to a seat track coupling assembly and an upper end opposite the lower end, and an upper leg portion coupled to a lateral side of the upper end of the base leg portion, the upper leg portion having an aperture configured to receive a base frame tube of the passenger seat. The upper leg portion can be positioned laterally offset from the seat track coupling assembly along the base frame such that the upper mounting location on the base frame tubes is not vertically aligned with the lower mounting location to the aircraft fuselage attachment points.
