Abstract: A head-up display, in particular for use in a vehicle, includes a light source and a projection screen. An intermediate screen is provided for the orientation of light emitted from a light source and, resulting therefrom, for the shaping of an image to be displayed on the projection screen. The intermediate screen is at least partially reflective.
Abstract: A head-up display for a vehicle has a laser and a scanning system. An image, which is to be displayed in the field of vision of the driver of the vehicle and which is composed of individual pixels, is produced pixel-by-pixel by the laser and the scanning system. The head-up display has a projection system having a projection surface and a magnifying optical system. The projection system projects the image to be displayed onto a virtual image plane and magnifies the image in the process. The size of the pixels in the virtual image plane is smaller than the resolving ability of the human eye, which is the case for an angular distance less than 0.5?, for example.
Abstract: A supporting device for a seat, in particular a vehicle seat, has at least one planar supporting part and a plurality of fastening structures arranged on the supporting part. The supporting part has at least one region of extent for an extent in at least one direction in the surface plane of the supporting part. The supporting part is of planar design and has web-like surface sections. The at least one region of extent is designed as a predetermined separating point in at least one web-like surface region.
Abstract: A joining process is proposed for connecting a first component to a second component, whereby in a first process the first component and the second component and an adhesive material arranged between the first and the second component are prepared, whereby in a second process the first and the second components are pressed together and whereby in a third process the adhesive material is hardened and further whereby spacing means are added to the adhesive material and these are at least partially resorbed in the third process by the adhesive material.

Abstract: A hinge mechanism for a vehicle seat includes an actuating lever, a disengaging lever, a main rotary axis, a deflection lever and a deflection rod. It also includes a separate first operating element for folding a backrest over in the direction of a seat part in the case of a fixed seat part, and a separate second operating element for folding over the backrest in the case of a simultaneous or subsequent pivot movement of the seat part. A method is provided for operation of a vehicle seat with a hinge mechanism.
Abstract: A head restraint for a vehicle seat has at least one sensor. The sensor is intended to determine the relative position of the head restraint in relation to the head of an occupant sitting in the vehicle seat. The sensor can include an optical sensor.
Abstract: A head restraint for a vehicle seat is provided, wherein at least one first part facing the head of the seat occupant can be moved linearly in the direction of the head of a seat occupant, wherein during the relocating motion, a relative motion between the first part and a second part of the head restraint arranged on a third part occurs, and a contact surface of the first part lies against a contact surface of the second part, and a contact surface is provided with a form-fit element, in particular a toothing arrangement. A method is provided for adjusting a head restraint.
Abstract: An adjusting device for a vehicle component, in particular for the seat back of a vehicle seat, has a first and a second fitting part which are disposed along an axis of rotation. The relative position of the two fitting parts with respect to one another can be changed. A torque is transmitted by a drive to a gear which rolls on the second fitting part and thereby adjusts the second fitting part.

Abstract: A fixing device for a vehicle seat, especially for a motor vehicle seat, includes a multi-articulated mechanism and a locking device that unlocks the multiarticulated mechanism when the vehicle seat is pivoted or folded back past a defined limiting angle, enabling the vehicle seat to be guided, especially pivoted and longitudinally moved, in a controlled manner, between an unlocked first position and an unlocked second position or vice versa.
Abstract: A device for controlling and/or regulating the electromechanical actuator of a planetary gear assembly includes commutation electronics that are designed as an electronic circuit board and are arranged in a housing, directly on a solenoid ring of the electromechanical actuator. The housing accommodates the planetary gear assembly and the device that electromagnetically actuates the same. The solenoid ring is formed by annular solenoids that can be actuated in turn in the circumferential direction of the solenoid ring by the commutation electronics.

Abstract: A head restraint assembly is provided for the rotationally secure arrangement of a head restraint on a vehicle seat formed from a backrest and a seat base part. The head restraint is arranged on the backrest by at least one head restraint rod such that the height thereof can be adjusted. A region is formed at an upper end of each head restraint rod. In the region the course of the head restraint rods defines a curve having a radius. The head restraint rods are arranged with the curved region in the head restraint in a form-fitting manner.
Abstract: A display device, particularly for a vehicle, includes a base element and a combiner. The combiner moves by a drive mechanism between a position for use, in which a virtual image can be projected onto the combiner, and a stowed position. The drive mechanism includes a translation mechanism.

Abstract: A locking device for a headrest has a headrest rod, a guide sleeve for the headrest rod and a blocking element. The blocking element is displaceable relative to the guide sleeve between a locking position, in which the blocking element is in engagement with a recess in the headrest rod, and a unlocking position, in which the blocking element is not in engagement with recesses in the headrest rod. The blocking element is pivotable in relation to the guide sleeve about an axis of rotation parallel to the headrest rod. The blocking element is mounted in the guide sleeve such that, when there is a relative rotational movement between the guide sleeve and the headrest rod, the blocking element rotates at least partially jointly in conjunction with the headrest rod about the axis of rotation.

Abstract: In a method for producing a backrest rear panel from at least one organic sheet, a plurality of reinforcing beads and a frame-shaped bead, which circles the reinforcing beads, are formed in at least one organic sheet. In a molding tool, a rib structure is formed in the circling frame-shaped bead on the rear of the backrest rear panel in such a manner that a rib structure closes flush with the rear of the backrest rear panel, with the result that an even surface is formed on the rear of the backrest rear panel. A bonded connection is formed between the organic sheet and rib structure with the result that a one-piece component is formed.
