GWR Night Riviera Sleeping Berth Reclining Backrest

Working with DB ESG, Deeo designed the reclining seat back for the lower bunk in the sleeping berth of the GWR Night Riviera. One of the two remaining sleeper trains in the UK. The brief was to create a simplified mechanical mechanism which allowed the backrest to stowed or in a reclined position, both positions allowing the integrated meal tray to lie horizontally. Cleaning access was also a requirement. The mechanical solution satisfied all design requirements as well as removing the possibility of oil leaks from pressurised cartridges previously employed.
