Abstract: The invention relates to an adjusting device for the longitudinal adjustment of an automotive component, especially a vehicle seat. The adjusting device comprises an upper longitudinal rail with respect to the adjusting device and a lower longitudinal rail with respect to the adjusting device. The adjusting device comprises a locking device in such a manner that when the locking device is activated, a relative adjustment of the longitudinal rails in relation to each other can be blocked and when the locking device is released, the longitudinal rails can be unblocked. The locking device comprises a plurality of detent pins, at least one detent pin being adjusted in the locking position to lock the longitudinal rails and all detent pins being adjusted in a release position to release the longitudinal rails. The detent pins have a detent profile that is designed in such a manner that a first front section of the detent pin has a flare angle and a second section of the detent pin has a transition.

Abstract: A memory device for blocking a component configured to move between an adjusting position and a functional position is provided. The memory device includes a housing configured to be coupled to the component, a blocking element pivotally coupled to the housing and a variable transmission mechanism coupled to the housing. The variable transmission mechanism is configured to transfer the movement of the component to the blocking element as a variable transmission when the component is moved from the adjusting position toward the functional position. According to one exemplary embodiment, the component is an adjustable easy entry vehicle seat.

Abstract: A device for limiting the adjustability of a component, in particular, a vehicle seat is provided. The device has an adjustment range, running in the longitudinal direction of a vehicle wherein the adjustment range comprises a first forward partial range and a second rear partial range. If the component is adjusted to a functional position that is different from the normal position, the device limits the adjustability of the component to the first partial range.

Abstract: An adjusting device for a vehicle seat has a sheet metal structure with at least one recess which can be brought into interlocking engagement with a locking element. According to the disclosure, it is provided that the recess is provided with an at least partially encircling bead.

Abstract: Safety device for a vehicle seat which is fixed inside a vehicle including lateral guides. The safety device consists of at least one safety rail fixed in the vehicle, in the region between the guides, and comprises associated securing mechanisms which are connected to the vehicle seat, and co-operate with the safety rail in a non-contact manner for regular loads applied to the seat, and in the event of irregular, especially accident-related deformations and/or movements in the region of the vehicle seat, engage with the safety rail in such a way that they block further deformation/displacements. The securing mechanisms and the safety rail are embodied in such a way that, during the engagement, reaction forces which act in the direction of axes (X, Y, Z) of a standard vehicle co-ordinates system are applied in a distributed manner to at least two different engagement regions of the safety rail.

Abstract: The invention relates to a safety device (1) for a vehicle seat which is fixed inside a vehicle by means of lateral guides. Said safety device consists of at least one safety rail (8) which is to be fixed in the vehicle, in the region between the guides, and comprises associated safety means (10) which are connected to, or are to be connected to, the vehicle seat, and co-operate with the safety rail (8) in such a way that they (10) are arranged in a non-contact manner in relation thereto (8) for regular loads applied to the seat, and in the event of irregular, especially accident-related deformations and/or movements in the region of the vehicle seat, engage with the safety rail (8) in such a way that they block further deformations/displacements.

Abstract: The present invention concerns an apparatus for adjusting the vertical and longitudinal position and the inclination of a pivotable seat part (2) of a vehicle seat (1) relative to a floor structure (4) of the vehicle, having a linkage that encompasses a linkage part, constituted by at least one articulated rectangle (ABCD), that has a base (AB), two rockers (BC, AD), and a coupler (CD). The base (B)is arranged in a plane extending substantially parallel to a longitudinal seat axis (X—X).The rockers (BC, AD)are pivotable about rotation axes extending substantially parallel to transverse seat axis. The linkage encompasses two linkage parts, each constituted by at least one articulated rectangle (ABCD;CDEF), that each have a base (AB,CD), two rockers (BC,AD;DE,CF),and a coupler (DC,EF).

Abstract: A protection device that prevents accident-related injuries of a user of a vehicle seat, having a device which, in the event of a vehicle impact, in particular a rear impact, moves a component of the vehicle seat, in particular an upper backrest part of a backrest, from a normal operational position into a safety position, in particular pivots it through an angular region relative to a lower backrest part about an axis running transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle in a backrest of the vehicle seat under the effect of a torque, having locking means for fixing the component in the normal operational position, and having means for detecting the vehicle impact, which means are formed by a mechanical system which has parts which—accelerated by the effects of the vehicle impact—cancel the fixing of the component by bringing the locking means into an unblocked position.
