    Abstract: A seat swivel mechanism secured under a vehicle seat and configured to swivel the vehicle seat in a motor-driven manner is described. The seat swivel mechanism includes a lower plate, which is a fixed support body for supporting the swivel motion, and an upper plate rotatably secured on the lower plate. The upper plate and the lower plate are configured to rotate relative to each other, and the vehicle seat swivels due to the relative rotation of the upper plate and the lower plate. A driving motor is secured to any one of the upper plate and the lower plate, and an internal gear, which is secured to any one of the upper plate and the lower plate, is rotated by the driving motor, thereby swiveling the vehicle seat.

  • Patent number: 7971920
    Abstract: A walk-in memory apparatus for an automobile seat locks the seat on a body only after the seat moves past a preset reference point when the seat, moved forwards with a seat back folded up by a seat walk-in apparatus, moves backwards with the seat back unfolded. The walk-in memory apparatus causes the entire seat to move forwards along tracks in an unlocked state when the seat back is folded up. The seat includes a track memory unit which, when the seat moves backwards with the seat back unfolded, causes the seat to be unlocked from the track when the stopper bracket is located ahead of a reference stopper and to be locked on the track when the stopper bracket is located behind the reference stopper.
