Abstract
The present invention is an improved footstep for an aircraft galley or similar monument that is retractable into the galley when not in use. The overall size of the footstep is significantly reduced by the use of a spring loaded detent mechanism. The present invention is designed to allow the footstep to remain in the deployed, horizontal position by means of a spring and plunger that cooperate to create a detent or over-center position. Further, the present invention permits the footstep to automatically return to the stowed position by virtue of the spring and plunger detent system.
