Abstract: The invention relates to a vehicle seat comprising a seat surface and a backrest. The seat surface and the backrest comprise, in particular, a seat cover which forms a surface of the seat surface and the backrest. Two fastening means which are spaced apart in the transverse direction are attached to the backrest or the seat surface, an additional device, in particular a child seat, being able to be attached thereby to the vehicle seat. Advantageously the fastening means are attached at a transition between the seat surface and the backrest. If the fastening means are not required for attaching the additional device, the fastening means may be covered. To this end, the vehicle seat comprises a covering element which is configured to be strip-shaped.

Abstract: A blocking and contact system for an electrical connection of an on-board power supply of a motor vehicle to a vehicle seat or a seat system that is blockable, removable, and longitudinally displaceable. Such a system is of structurally simple construction, and facilitates a rapid and automatic electrical connection in every position without additional control by a user.

Abstract: A contact system to establish an electrical connection between a vehicle electrical system and a vehicle seat. The contact system includes a contact rail and at least one contact socket attached to the vehicle seat. The contact rail has at least two contact strips connected to the vehicle electrical system, while the contact socket has a sliding unit with contact elements movably retained in a housing unit. A relative movement between the sliding unit and the housing unit is carried out to electrically connect to the vehicle electrical system when the vehicle seat is retained in the guide rails. Removal of the electrical contact is achieved upon removal of the vehicle seat from the guide rails.

Abstract: A seat position detection apparatus for a vehicle seat which is guided using a seat rail in a floor rail of the vehicle. The seat position detection apparatus has a lock for the longitudinal setting of the seat rail and the floor rail in relation to one another, and a mechanical memory device that has a position determination unit and a position detection unit, which may be started symmetrically from both directions of the longitudinal adjustment of the vehicle seat to define a vehicle seat position.

Abstract: A vehicle seat adjuster for adjusting the inclination of a backrest with respect to the seat.

Abstract: A method for producing a hybrid composite component from organo sheets and a metallic reinforcing element in such a way that the method may be inexpensively and simply performed and the hybrid composite component has the lowest possible weight and may absorb relatively high forces.

Abstract: A folding seat arrangement comprising a first carrying structure (2) having a backrest (3) and guiding elements (11) for the removable attachment in guide rails (9) to a vehicle floor, a second carrying structure (5) pivotally mounted to the first carrying structure (2) and having a seat cushion (4), and a supporting structure (6; 31), on which in a first end region guiding elements (10) are provided for the removable attachment in guide rails (9) and which in a second region is mounted a carrying structure (2; 5) in an articulated manner such that the seat arrangement in the folded setting requires the least amount of space in the lower region of the expanded luggage compartment. This is achieved in that the guiding elements (11) on the first carrying structure (2) and the supporting structure (6; 31) can be moved relative to one another to pivot the supporting structure (6; 31).
