  • Publication number: 20140028071
    Abstract: The invention relates to a head restraint for a vehicle seat, in particular for a motor vehicle seat, wherein the head restraint has a cushion part facing the head of a seat occupant, a main body, and a comfort adjustment device, wherein in a usage situation of the head restraint the cushion part can be adjusted relative to the main body from a first position that is farther from the head of the seat occupant to a second position that is closer to the head of the occupant by means of the comfort adjustment device, wherein the cushion part can also be adjusted from the second position in the direction of the first position by means of the comfort adjustment device, wherein this requires a front extreme position of the cushion part to be set.

  • Publication number: 20100148544
    Abstract: An actuating system for a head restraint of a vehicle seat is provided. The head restraint includes a part that can be shifted from a comfort position to a safety position, such as in the event of an accident. Limbs are expandable from an initial position as a consequence of pressure loading to bring about a lengthening which can be transmitted to force transmission means. The limbs are connected to one another and/or to fastening means by joints, each having a first and a second joint pin which can be inserted axially into holes to form the joints.

  • Publication number: 20070151835
    Abstract: An interior fitting for a vehicle, particularly for a motor vehicle, comprises a supporting body, which is provided, at least in areas, with a sensor-functional planar structure and with a covering layer that is located on the side facing the interior. Different output signals can be generated by means of the planar structure according to the location of action thereupon. According to the invention, the covering layer is flexibly designed and completely covers the sensor-functional planar structure.
