A deployment mechanism suitable for a deployable seat table 12 such as found in an aircraft seat has a non-linear motion slide 30 comprising a primary carriage 34 movable back and forth along a primary track 32. A secondary carriage 52 is coupled to the primary carriage and moves with the primary carriage. A secondary non-linear 60 track has at least a section of which runs non-parallel with the primary track. The secondary carriage is coupled to the secondary track and is movable back and forth along the secondary track. The coupling between the secondary carriage and the primary carriage allows relative movement between the carriages in a transverse direction and allows relative rotation between the secondary carriage and the primary carriage about a perpendicular axis.
