Abstract: An adjusting structure for an armrest of a chair comprises a support member, an armrest, a side cover, a press member, a guiding member, a housing, and an engaging unit; wherein in operation, the press member is pressed inward to disengage the guiding member from the limiting recess of the support member. Thereafter, the armrest is adjusted to tilt forward so that the screw elements and the guiding member are guided toward a predetermined orientation along the arcuate groove, and the engaging unit abuts against the support member, thereby positioning the armrest.

Abstract: An improved seat pad and integrated gripping member is provided, which prevents the pad from slipping when placed between a seating surface and individual. The gripping member is permanently attached to the seat pad along its edge and covers a portion of either side of the seating surface. The gripping member is reversible therefore either side of the seat pad may be selectively exposed during use. This allows both seat pad sides to be constructed of different materials, colors, or patterns and be interchangeable when desired by the user.

Abstract: An infant seat with armrests for motorcars has an inclinable backrest. The infant seat is slidingly fitted onto a base and has a locking mechanism being apt to lock it in different points of its shiftinig travel on the base. The armrests are each made up by an independent member being linked in a pin-jointed connection to the respective side of the seat and devices for stabilizing them in different height positions. The base is arranged on the seat of the motorcar at its back side leaning against the backrest of the seat. The infant seat is apt to be shifted forwards, and its backrest leans with different inclinations on the backrest of the motorcar's seat.

Abstract: A folding tray assembly is provided and includes a support member and a tray member, whereby the tray member is pivotably supported by the support member and moveable relative thereto between a use position and a stowed position. The folding tray assembly further includes a locking mechanism operable to selectively lock the tray member to the support member in one of either the use position or the stowed position. The locking mechanism is housed within the tray member such that the mechanism is not visible or accessible by an occupant, but rather remotely actuated by a handle or lever. In addition, the tray assembly eliminates external supports by providing support within the tray member, thereby providing an open space below the tray member and giving the tray assembly a generally L-shape in the use position.

Abstract: The seat folding device of a vehicle includes a seat frame that linearly slides along an anteroposterior direction of the vehicle on a guide rail fixed to a floor panel of the vehicle. Two folding brackets are pivotally coupled at a front middle portion of the seat frame. A tilting bracket is coupled at the lower surface thereof to one end of the folding bracket by a hinge. A seat cushion is disposed at an upper side of the tilting bracket. The present invention thus constructed prevents deterioration of the appearance of the seat device and optimizes the stability of the vehicle, convenience of the user and marketability of the vehicle.

The method includes the steps of preparing a bracket having an attachment portion for attachment with the seat and a mounting wall for attachment with a rear seat entertainment device, shifting a headrest upwardly to expose a headrest support tube and a flange of the support tube, placing the attachment portion of the bracket between the flange and a top surface of the seat in such a way that an opening of the attachment portion surrounds the support tube, attaching the rear seat entertainment device to the mounting wall of the bracket, and fixedly attaching a lower part of the rear seat entertainment device to the back of the seat.

Abstract: An adjustable armrest includes an elevation device to allow adjustment of a height of the armrest, a first rocking device to allow adjustment of the armrest to the left or to the right, a movement controlling device to allow front and rear adjustment of the armrest and a second rocking device to allow movement of the armrest.

Abstract: A stowable seat assembly is provided for use with a vehicle having a floor and a recess formed therein. The assembly includes a seat and a pivot tube adapted to be secured to the vehicle floor, with the seat being operatively pivotal about the pivot tube between a first, collapsed position and a second, stowed position with the seat being at least partially stowed within the vehicle recess. The seat passes through a third, upright position intermediate the first and second positions as the seat is pivoted between the first and second positions. The assembly further includes a torsion rod mounted on the pivot tube and free to twist, with the torsion rod being operatively coupled to the seat during pivoting of the seat toward and away from the third, upright position.

Abstract: In the case of a fitting for a vehicle seat, in particular for a motor vehicle seat, having a first fitting part (11), a second fitting part (12) connected by a gear mechanism to the first fitting part (11), a driving ring (26), which at least partially defines an eccentric (27, 29) and is mounted rotatably in the first fitting part, for driving a rolling movement of the second fitting part (12) on the first fitting part (11), and a drivable driving bushing (21) which is mounted rotatably, the driving bushing (21) and the driving ring (26) are connected to each other in a form-fitting manner by a transmission profile (24?, 26?).

Abstract: The invention concerns a drawer slide with compensation of synchronous running errors of slide rails (equalize the errors of the relative positions of the slide rails to each other), having on each of the two side of the drawer a rail system, that has a cabinet rail fastened directly or indirectly by a cabinet angle on a cabinet body and is held directly or indirectly linearly movable by a linear bearing by a center rail on a drawer rail, which is connected directly or indirectly by a décor with the drawer; whereby a compensation mechanism is provided that has a compensation lever, that is connected by a pivot bearing directly or indirectly by a cabinet angle or linear bearing or décor with one of the rails, and during its turning at the end of each drawer closing cycle, reaches a positive/form-fitting position with stops, that directly or indirectly are connected by a cabinet angle or linear bearing or décor with the remaining rails and, thus, ensures each drawer closing is automatic, guided and has equalize

Abstract: A belt lock is provided and has a lock holder that is rotatably mounted on a vehicle part. A restoring spring, as a flat spiral spring, has spiral spring windings that are disposed in a single plane and are disposed between a cover and the lock holder.

Abstract: A medium voltage controller for electrical equipment, such as motors, transformers, reactors, and capacitors, having an arc resistant cabinet, swaged internal electrical connections, a one-piece self-aligning withdrawable finger cluster, a pull-out instrument compartment, a load discharge device, cast fuse holders, disconnect switch, a switch illuminator, low power current transformers, and an optical temperature measuring system. The arc resistant cabinet relies on the pressure generated by an arc fault to provide the sealing action to contain the fault forces. The cabinet's rear panels are inside the cabinet and the panel lips mate to edges of the cabinet opening. The front doors each have a series of latching tabs along one side and a hinge along the opposing side. A dimple-in-a-dimple joint provides shear strength for panel joints. At the top of the cabinet is an exhaust vent.

Abstract: An automotive seat includes a seat cushion, a seat back, and a multi-position head restraint mounted to the seat back that is moveable between a deployed position and a retracted position. The seat assembly is characterized by a control mechanism mounted within the head restraint that allows the head restraint to be easily movable between the deployed and retracted positions. The control mechanism allows the passenger to place the head restraint in the retracted position by pushing down on the head restraint when the head restraint is in the deployed position. The passenger simply uses an actuation lever of the control mechanism to place the head restraint in the deployed position when the head restraint is in the retracted position.
