Abstract: An apparatus (8) includes a seat (10) for an occupant (12) of a vehicle (14). The seat (10) includes a cushion portion (16) and a backrest portion (18). A pivot mechanism (50) pivotally connects the backrest portion (18) to the cushion portion (16) and enables pivotal movement of the backrest portion (18) relative to the cushion portion (16) in both forward and rearward directions. The apparatus (8) also includes an occupant protection device (70) that is actuatable in response to an occupant exerted force directed rearward against the backrest portion (18) of the seat (10). The occupant protection device (70), when actuated resists rearward pivotal movement of the backrest portion (18) of the seat (10) relative to the cushion portion (16) of the seat (10).

Abstract: The invention relates to an adjusting arrangement for pre-crash adjustment of at least one vehicle component, in particular of a vehicle seat, having an adjusting device (11) with two entry connections (B1, B2), and a control device (12) for receiving an entry signal (S1) and output of a control signal (S2) to the adjusting device (11) for adjusting the vehicle component in a crashnullsecure position. In order to allow a reliable pre-crash positioning with relatively low equipment expenditure, a switching device (13) is provided between the entry connections (B1, B2) of the adjustment device (11) and supply voltage connections (A1, A2; A1, A2, A3) of the vehicle. The switching device (13) can be adjusted between a normal operating position and a quick adjustment position. The control device (12) emits, upon recognizing a pre-crash situation, a switching signal (S3) for adjusting the switching device (13) into the quick adjustment position, and a second voltage (U2) is applied at the entry connections (B1, B2) of the adjusting device (11) in the quick adjusting position, which is greater than a first voltage (U1) applied in the normal operating position.

Abstract: A sliding energy absorbing vehicle seat bracket provides slide-forward seat travel at a controlled resistance force, which results in absorbing energy and limiting forces on a rear impacting occupant. The bracket can be a simple L-Section steel member with threaded stud attachment to the floor and shoulder rivet or shoulder bolt attachment to the seat or seat riser or pedestal. The shoulder rivet attachment fits in a slot in the bracket that permits resistive sliding of the seat relative to the vehicle floor. The slot can be shaped such that there is no sliding travel until a threshold force is reached and then the seat continues to slide with a continued resistance force. An interference fit of the slot to rivet can be provided by a tapered or serrated slot or a plastic insert molded in the slot. Other bracket designs include a U-shaped bracket or a horizontal slide instead of a vertical slot. The bracket has application for any vehicle seat where there are two or more rows of seats. Multiple row transit seating is a principal application.

Abstract: A vehicle seat assembly for use with a vehicle includes a seat cushion frame adapted to be installed in the vehicle. An energy managing support bracket is attached to the seat cushion frame, and a recliner mechanism is attached to the support bracket. The assembly also includes a seat back frame connected to the recliner mechanism such that the seat back frame is pivotable with respect to the seat cushion frame. Furthermore, the support bracket is configured to attenuate energy associated with a rear impact to the vehicle when the assembly is installed in the vehicle, so as to inhibit rebound of the seat back frame.

Abstract: An upper end portion of a seat backrest and a lower end portion of a head rest are superposed together. A rear end portion of an upper portion cushion member and a lower end portion of the seat backrest are superposed together. These superposed portions are sewn together by thin threads which break when pressing force of a predetermined value or greater is applied to the seat backrest. Thus, when pressing force of the predetermined value or greater is applied to the seat backrest, the thin threads break. A portion of the seat backrest which a shoulder portion of a seated occupant contacts, and a portion of the seat backrest which buttocks of the seated occupant contact, are enlarged, and impact force can be damped.

Abstract: The motor vehicle seat of a motor vehicle comprises an underframe and a seat carrier that is height-adjustably connected to the underframe through rear oscillating cranks. A catch device is directly assigned to one of the two rear oscillating cranks. A non-rotatable tie bar joins the two rear oscillating cranks so that they are parallel when the vehicle seat is subjected to normal load. A retaining device has a sector gear firmly connected to the other one of the two rear oscillating cranks. An engaging piece which is movably disposed on the seat carrier or on the underframe, is provided with teeth devised for engagement with the sector gear and is disengaged from the sector gear as long as the vehicle seat is subjected to normal load. When the associated motor vehicle is subjected to a crash load an actuator is activated and causes the engaging piece to move into positive mesh with the sector gear. It is activated both for a positive and for a negative acceleration of the vehicle seat in the event of an accident. The teeth of the sector gear are configured in such a manner that their flanks, which are located on either side thereof, are oriented substantially radially relative to the orientation of said sector gear so that, during an accident situation, the sector gear is locked in the two directions of rotation upon engagement of the engaging piece.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to suppress rebound of a human body when receiving a large impact load accompanying a collision or the like. A back frame member 20 and a seat frame member 10 are individually formed by welding or caulking, and a link member 30 for connecting both is attached to the back frame member 20 and the seat frame member 10 by welding or caulking. Each of the frame members is provided with a cushioning member as a tension structure. Upon receipt of an impact vibration or an impact force at a predetermined magnitude or more, the tension of the cushioning member provided as the tension structure lowers to be able to exhibit high damping characteristics.
