Abstract: Lumbar support for a seat backrest, comprising a support basket (10) extending in the longitudinal direction of the seat backrest, a frame (12) to which the support basket (10) is mounted and an adjustment device (11) which changes the position of the support basket relative to the frame, the adjustment device including a plurality of adjustment members (60) some of which are movable with respect to one another.

Abstract: A multi-way adjustment device, in particular a two-way adjustment device, is proposed for a seat component, which is suitable in particular for the seat-back width adjustment of a seat. The multi-way adjustment device comprises an adjustment part (7) adjustably mounted relative to a mounting plate a (1), which when moved in a first adjustment direction (A) requires less energy expenditure than when moved in a second adjustment direction (B). In order to compensate this, there are provided mechanical energy accumulation means (5), which takes up mechanical energy when the movement is in the first adjustment direction (A), in order to release this when the movement is in the second adjustment direction (B) and thus to assist the movement of the adjustment part (7) in the second adjustment direction (B).

Abstract: Disclosed is a seat element (1) for a seat system, which extends substantially across an entire zone of a backrest and/or a seat area of a seat in a mounted state. Said seat element (1) comprises devices (12-21) for receiving functional elements in order to provide additional seat functions. Such a modular seat system makes it possible to create in a simple manner different fittings of a seat, especially a vehicle seat.

Abstract: Lumbar support for a seat backrest, comprising a support basket (10) extending in the longitudinal direction of the seat backrest, a frame (12) to which the support basket (10) is mounted and an adjustment device (11) which changes the position of the support basket relative to the frame, the adjustment device including a plurality of adjustment members (60) some of which are movable with respect to one another.

Abstract: The invention relates to a lumbar support for a seat backrest, having a lumbar support basket 12 arranged in a frame 10 of a seat backrest, a pulling device which changes the position of the lumbar support basket 12 relative to the frame, characterised in that the pulling device has two pull cables 16, 17 which are coupled to the lumbar support basket 12 and the frame in such a way that when tension is exerted on the pulling device the lumbar support basket 12 is moved relative to the plane defined by the frame 10 of the seat backrest.

Abstract: An adjustment device is provided for adjusting the height of a side cheek (1) of a seat, whereby the side cheek (1) has a compressible section. The adjustment device comprises pressure means (3) allocated to the compressible section, which are designed in such a way that in a first state they exert a compression pressure on the compressible section, and that in a second state they do not exert any compression pressure on the compressible section. With a device of this kind, a simple height adjustment of the side cheek can be achieved, for example for the purpose of facilitating entry into a motor vehicle.

Abstract: A head restraint arrangement with a hinged head restraint (1) is proposed, which is suitable in particular for use with rear seats of vehicles, so that by folding down the head restraint (1) on the one hand it can be ensured that the head restraint (1) is moved from the field of vision of the driver of the vehicle, while on the other hand the head restraint arrangement is configured in such a manner that complete folding down of the rear seat with the head restraint (1) attached to it is possible, since by virtue of a special mechanism (16-23) the head restraint (1), when folding down the rear seat, can fit into an intermediate gap between the rear seat and the corresponding front seat.

Abstract: A lumbar support with an archable supporting element (1-3) is proposed, wherein for the individual adjustment of the curvature of the archable supporting element (1-3) to the needs of the individual user, an adjustment mechanism (8-17) is provided, which is configured in such a manner that it can bring about both a curvature of the archable supporting element (1-3) into a first curvature direction, in which the archable supporting element (1-3) forms a convex supporting surface, and a curvature of the archable supporting element (1-3) into a second curvature direction, in which the archable supporting element (1-3) forms a concave supporting surface.

Abstract: An adjustment device for a Bowden cable arrangement is described in the form of a manual lock or tensioning lock, which comprises a housing (10), a threaded spindle (70) guided in the housing (10) in a torsionally-resistant and axially movable manner, which is to be connected by a wire to the Bowden cable arrangement, and two half-shell elements (50), which are arranged in the housing (10) in an axially-secure and rotatable manner, and are in threaded engagement with the threaded spindle (70). Located at the housing (10) is a shoulder element (16) with an opening (13) through which the wire of the Bowden cable arrangement is guided in the axial direction out of the adjustment device. Allocated to the shoulder element (16) is a sleeve (30), which is to be placed in positive fit on the shoulder element (16) and prevents any deformation of the shoulder element (16) when the adjustment device is actuated.

Abstract: An actuation device is provided for actuating a traction element (5), the actuation element comprising in particular a pivotally mounted force transmission element (1) for transferring an actuation force to the traction element (5). The force transmission element comprises first stop means (7), the actuation device further comprises second stop means (9), whereby a possible angle of rotation of the force transmission element (1) is limited. The first stop means (7) and/or the second stop means (9) comprise(s) a resilient element. A stop is thereby dampened and when the first stop means (7) butts against the second stop means (9) energy absorbed by the resilient element (7) can be used to assist a movement of the force transmission element (1) in an opposite direction.
