  • Patent number: 10807552
    Abstract: A vehicle seat device includes a fixed base, a movable base, a paddle, and an air pack. When a side airbag arranged in the seat is deployed, the expanding side airbag presses and pivots the movable base and allows for a deployment of the side airbag. The paddle is configured to change a seat support form when pressed and pivoted by the air pack. The movable base pivots about a first pivot axis relative to the fixed base. The paddle pivots about a second pivot axis relative to the movable base. The first pivot axis and the second pivot axis are arranged at different locations.
