Abstract: A mounting bracket for a fire extinguisher which has a base configured for attachment to a vehicle or seat; an endcap pivotably mounted to the base, wherein the endcap includes at least one receptacle which is configured to accommodate a fire extinguisher tank; and a neck clamp configured to engage a bottle neck on a fire extinguisher.

Abstract: A mounting bracket for a fire extinguisher comprising a base configured for attachment to a vehicle or seat; an endcap pivotably mounted to the base, wherein the endcap comprises at least one receptacle which is configured to accommodate a fire extinguisher tank; and a neck clamp configured to engage a bottle neck on a fire extinguisher.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a vehicle seat assembly comprising a seat assembly frame, a seat and backrest subassembly having a seat pivotally mounted to the frame and a backrest pivotally connected at its lower end to the seat, and a link pivotally connected to the backrest and the frame. The seat and backrest subassembly is movable between a first position to facilitate operation of the vehicle while the driver is sitting and a second position to facilitate operation of the vehicle with the driver standing. When the seat and backrest subassembly is moved from the first position to the second position, the seat moves from a generally horizontal orientation to a generally vertical orientation and the backrest moves upward and forward.

Abstract: A height adjustable seat suspension having first and second bases connected by a linkage assembly with an air spring and shock disposed between the bases. The shock dampens vertical movement of the bases and the air spring increases in air volume to raise the seat height of the suspension and decreases in air volume to lower the seat height of the suspension. A threaded rod is also included as part of the shock which is threadably engaged with a collar that is rotated by a drive source. The engagement between the threaded portions of the rod and collar axially repositions the rod with respect to said collar to change the effective length of, the shock.

Abstract: An adjustable armrest assembly for a seat including a shaft mounted to and extending laterally from the seat and having a stop member, and an armrest frame rotatably mounted on the shaft to permit limited rotation of the frame on the shaft and a rotatable actuator in conjunction with the frame and a rod actuatable by the actuator to act on the stop member to adjust the positioning and degree of rotation of the frame about the shaft. The armrest preferably includes a compartment within the armrest frame and a cover with a gel or foam pad, or other cushioning, hinged to the frame.

Abstract: A pneumatic seat suspension assembly including upper and lower support members with scissors linkages extending therebetween, a pneumatic spring operatively attached between one set of opposing parallel scissors arms, a height adjuster in communication with the pneumatic spring, a dump valve in communication with the pneumatic spring and a safety rollover valve in communication with the pneumatic spring. The scissors linkage provides the mechanical connection between the seat bottom and the seat support while the pneumatic spring provides the structure to raise and lower the seat bottom by use of compressed air which causes the parallel scissors linkages to be pushed upward causing the seat to rise.

Abstract: An adjustable armrest assembly for a seat including a shaft mounted to and extending laterally from the seat and having a stop member, and an armrest frame rotatably mounted on the shaft including first and second stop members positioned to permit limited rotation of the frame on the shaft where one of the stop members is adjustable to adjust the degree of rotation of the frame about the shaft.

Abstract: A seat swivel apparatus which comprises an upper plate supporting a seat and a lower plate fixed to a support structure, a first generally annular bearing affixed to the upper plate and a second generally annular bearing affixed to the lower plate and being juxtaposed such that the upper plate swivels relative to the lower plate on opposing first and second bearings, and an actuator arm rotatably mounted with one of the plates to allow 180.degree. rotation of the upper plate relative to the lower plate. The swivel apparatus can be easily interchangeable between the right and left sides of a vehicle.

Abstract: Swivel mechanism for a vehicle seat, for example, includes a lower support-attachable element and a superimposed seat-carrying element interconnected by a turntable providing for 360.degree. angular movement of the upper element about an upright axis, together with latch structure for selectively locking the upper element in plural modes in angular ranges within the 360.degree. range. The turntable structure is in the form of an annulus through which securing bolts or the like pass upwardly for receipt by a retainer atop the upper element, the latter having a circular opening therein coaxial with the turntable and through which the securing bolts also pass to provide a rugged connection between the elements for resisting forces tending to separate the elements.
