Abstract: A headrest assembly may have a connecting member extending between a headrest and a seat back of the headrest assembly. A mechanism may be located in the headrest assembly or the seat back. The mechanism permits selective movement of the headrest with respect to the connecting member.

Abstract: A joint fitting for a motor vehicle seat may have a first fitting part with a first sprocket and a second fitting part with a second sprocket. The fitting may also have a gear which rolls in the first sprocket and in the second sprocket to generate a rotational movement between the two sprockets. The fitting may also have an eccentric which is arranged between the first fitting part and the gear for driving a rolling movement of the gear in the first sprocket. The eccentric may have two wedge segments and a spring which pushes the wedge segments apart. An additional eccentric is arranged between the second fitting part and the gear for removing a play between the gear and the second sprocket. The additional eccentric may have two wedge segments. A vehicle seat having at least one such gearing fitting is also provided.

Abstract: A cushion suspension for a vehicle seat may have a support structure with a substantially tub-shaped profile and at least two lateral portions. Each of the lateral portions may have a flexible suspension portion. A seating surface assembly for a vehicle seat is also disclosed.

Abstract: A seat back panel may have a panel having a central portion bounded by an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion may have an upper attachment member adapted to selectively receive a portion of a framework for a seat. The central portion may have a least one side attachment member adapted to selectively receive a portion of the framework. the central portion may have a concave shape. The lower portion may have a convex shape. The concave shape and the convex shape may give the panel a general S-shape.

Abstract: An adjustment fitting for a vehicle seat for adjusting an inclination of a backrest of the vehicle seat may have a first fitting part connectable to a seat substructure of the vehicle seat. The fitting may also have a second fitting part pivotable about an axis relative to the first fitting part and connectable to the backrest of the vehicle seat. The first fitting part and the second fitting part may be constituent parts both of a gearing unit of the adjustment fitting and of a locking unit of the adjustment fitting.

Abstract: A headrest for a vehicle seat may have a first component constructed of an expanded polypropylene material. The first component may have a covering applied to at least a portion thereof. The headrest may also have a second component constructed of the expanded polypropylene material. The second component may have a front portion with a complementary shape to the first component and may least partially interface with the first component. The second component may have a coating disposed on at least a portion thereof.

Abstract: A headrest adjusting device for headrest adjustment with respect to a backrest may have a headrest mounting bracket and a slide device movable mounted on the headrest mounting bracket. The headrest mounting bracket may have a seat belt retainer movable mounted on the headrest mounting bracket. A seat structure for a vehicle seat may also have the headrest adjusting device.

Abstract: A seating system for at least one occupant in a vehicle interior is disclosed. The seating system may provide a seat assembly with a base assembly configured to be mounted in the vehicle interior and a seat structure configured to be coupled to the base assembly and providing a seat configured for movement relative to the base assembly. Movement of the seat relative to the base assembly may be made by at least two of recline movement or swivel movement or tilt movement. Recline movement may be generally translating movement of the seat structure. Swivel movement may be rotational movement of the seat structure. Tilt movement may be generally translating movement of the seat structure transverse to recline movement. The base assembly may be a mechanism configured to facilitate movement of the seat structure relative to the base assembly.

Abstract: A headrest assembly for use in a vehicle seat. The headrest assembly includes one or more support arms that are connected to a seatback frame. An adjustable connection assembly connects at least a portion of the one or more support arms to at least a portion of the headrest body. The adjustable connection assembly allows the head rest body to move in a forward and rearward direction, to move in an up and down direction, and/or to pivot relative to the seatback frame of the vehicle seat.

Abstract: A headrest support structure has an upper panel, a collar and a sleeve. The upper panel extends in a width direction of a seatback frame at the upper part. The upper panel has a sleeve support part including upper and lower wall parts facing in a direction perpendicular to the width direction. The sleeve support part is in a U-shape open to a side opposite to a seating side in a longitudinal sectional shape. The upper and lower wall parts have upper and lower holes. The collar is in a tubular shape with a through hole. The collar is arranged between the upper wall part and the lower wall part to have the through hole communicate with the upper and lower holes. The sleeve is inserted through the upper hole, the through hole, and the lower hole. A rod-like leg portion of a headrest is insertable in the sleeve.

Abstract: A vehicle seat having a drive device for driving a adjustment kinematics of the vehicle seat may have an adjustment arm, and a tensioning device. The drive device may have a pinion which can be rotated about a pinion rotation axis and which is in toothed engagement with a tooth segment of the adjustment arm. The tensioning device pretensions the adjustment arm so that the tooth segment is pretensioned in the direction of the pinion. The tensioning device has at least one sliding element which is in abutment with the adjustment arm. During an actuation of the height adjustment kinematics, the at least one sliding element slides along the adjustment arm. The sliding element is resiliently pretensioned by a resilient element.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a seat for a vehicle. The seat may have a seat structure having at least a backrest frame part adjustable between an initial position and at least an inclined position. The seat may also have a seat adjusting device having at least a number of linear actuators. Further, the disclosure relates to a seat mounting structure having such a seat.
