    摘要: An improvement to foldable headrests remote actuators by providing a tube mounted spring compensator to facilitate movement between a stowage position and an operating position. The spring compensator is inserted concentrically within the hollow tubes that support the adjustable headrests to boost or compensate for the lack of force routinely experienced under cold weather use or aging of materials. The spring compensator is positioned inside the headrest support tube to help pull the cable up through the seat when the seat and headrest are returned from a stowage position to a passenger seating position. The spring compensator inside the headrest support tube allows the use of a smaller torsion spring in the headrest and reduces the stress on the components in the mechanism.

    摘要: A reversible seat for an automotive vehicle having a head restraint which rotates to a fold flat position between a forward-facing position and a rearward-facing position as the seat is moved between opposing forward-facing and rearward-facing positions. The head restraint folds towards the seat back as the reversible seat passes through the peak of its locus to increase clearance with a headliner of the automotive vehicle. The head restraint returns to an upright inclined position as the seat reaches the opposing position.

    摘要: A vehicle component for a motor vehicle having a rear seat device with at least one headrest and having a wind deflector device with an extendable planar element for protecting front seats of the motor vehicle against relative wind. In an extended state, the planar element extends from a region behind the headrest to a region in front of the headrest. In this context, the headrest can be pivoted by a pivoting device from a position of use, in which the headrest projects beyond a height of the planar element in the extended state, into a position of rest. In the position of rest, the headrest is arranged under the extended planar element.

    摘要: A headrest assembly according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes a head restraint configured to rotate from a first locked position to a second locked position to incline the head restraint relative to a seat back. Further, the head restraint is configured such that rotation of the head restraint beyond the second locked position causes the head restraint to become urged back to the first locked position. The head restraint includes a ratchet assembly having a pawl and pawl spring, and the pawl spring includes a first section and a second section. The first section of the pawl spring is configured to contact the pawl when the head restraint is rotated from the first locked position to the second locked position, and the second section of the pawl spring is configured to contact the pawl when the head restraint is rotated beyond the second locked position.

    摘要: The object of the present invention is to provide a headrest capable of, when a user touches the headrest, preventing the user's finger from being inserted into the inner space of the headrest. The vehicle seat headrest according to the present invention includes: a stay (402) held on the seat back side; and a headrest main body (4A) supported forward rotatably from a using position with respect to the stay (402). The headrest main body (4A) has: a main body frame (401) forming a strength member; hinge parts (403a), (403b) which connect the main body frame (401) rotatably with respect to the stay (402); a locking mechanism (500) which fixes the main body frame (401) in the using position with respect to the stay (402); and cushion material (407) which covers the main body frame (401) and the hinge parts (403a), (403b). In the vehicle seat headrest, a resin lower cover (408), having an opening (408a) through which the stay (402) is inserted, covers a lower surface of the headrest main body (4A).

    摘要: A seat assembly includes a five-bar linkage for moving the seat assembly between a plurality of positions in an automotive vehicle. A first link is rotatably coupled to a seat back at a second pivot point disposed coaxial to a first pivot point, and to a seat base defining a fifth link at a third pivot point. A second link extends axially between the first and second pivot points. A third link is defined by a lower seat back portion and a seat cushion and extends between the first pivot point and a fifth pivot point disposed adjacent a front portion of the seat cushion. A fourth link is rotatably coupled to the third link at the fifth pivot point and the seat base at a fourth pivot point. The seat assembly is capable of moving to both a pitched easy entry position and a stow flat to floor position.
