Patent number: 10072690Abstract: A hybrid component is formed by a profiled component of a first material, which is materially bonded in certain sections to a component made of a second material, and is connected by a form-fit and/or force-fit connection outside the sections with a material bond. This creates sections that relieve the strains resulting from differing thermal expansion.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2012Date of Patent: September 11, 2018Assignee: Johnson Controls Technology CompanyInventors: Simon Fleischheuer, Robin Ndagijimana, Harald Mund, Nils Frisse, Anup Saravade

Patent number: 8393681Abstract: The invention relates to vehicle seat comprising a seat part and to a restraint device and a corresponding method of manufacture. The vehicle seat comprises an anti-submarining restraint device for preventing an occupant from slipping through on the vehicle seat when decelerated due to a crash, said restraint device being settable to a retracted inactive position and said restraint device being settable to an extended active position. The seat part, in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, has lateral seat parts on both sides of the seat, a padding defining a seat area and a padding support below said padding. The restraint device is arranged between the padding support and the padding and spaced apart from the lateral parts by means of a locking element provided for locking the restraint device in the active position.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2007Date of Patent: March 12, 2013Assignee: Johnson Controls GmbHInventors: Bernd Gross, Harald Mund
