Abstract: A motor vehicle door includes an arrester device having a magneto-rheological fluid for holding the motor vehicle door in position, and a coil for solidifying the magneto-rheological fluid that is disposed adjacent to a liquid-tight interior space, with the interior space containing one or more components which can be moved relative to other components in the interior space. A relative movement between these components is slowed down by solidifying the magneto-rheological fluid and the slowing down of the relative movement causes the motor vehicle door to be held in position. The coil is part of a switchable hard magnet which is selected such that a sedimentation-stable, magneto-rheological fluid is obtained. The motor vehicle door may thus be reliably held in a freely selectable position.

Abstract: A locking mechanism (1), in a motor vehicle, includes two elements (2, 4) that abut one another along a contact region (10). At least one element (2, 4) has a coating (9) at least in the contact region. The coating alters under stress during an accident, such that the contact region (10) between the two elements becomes larger and/or a coefficient of friction between the two elements increases.

Abstract: A fold-out component body (1), in particular an armrest of a vehicle seat, can be rotated about an axis of rotation (4) from a stowage position (9) into a usage position (10). In the event of an accident, the fold-out component (1) can be secured in the stowage position thereof by a locking element (2).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a vehicle seat (1) comprising a seat part (2) and a backrest (3), wherein the backrest (3) is provided in such a way that it is pivotable relative to the seat part (2) by means of a recliner (4). The present invention further relates to an adjusting mechanism.

Abstract: Vehicle seat (1), with a seat part (2) and a backrest (3), which comprises a lumbar support (7), wherein the lumbar support (7) has a lumbar apex (7.1) towards the back of a seat occupant and tapers from there and that the lumbar support comprises a suspension 9, 11, 12) that results in load distribution with a primery load uptake (8. 1) at the lumbar apex (7.1).

Abstract: Longitudinal, adjuster (27) having an outer and an Inner rail (50, 51), characterized in that the outer rail (50) has a structural element (53) which absorbs vertical forces and has a flexible element which biases a rolling body (52) against the inner rail (51).

Abstract: Vehicle seat (1) having a seat part (2) and a backrest (3), wherein the supporting structure (44) of the seat part or the backrest, in particular the side part thereof, integrally has at least one spring element (40, 31) a pivot point (P) and/or a safety belt connection.

Abstract: Seat height adjustment having vertical slots (21, FIG. 3) provided on the seat structure (20) and a displacer (14) which is provided with tilted slots (15) and which can be moved horizontally in order to lift or lower the seat.

Abstract: A vehicle seat including a seat member, having a seat face and two lateral members. The seat face may be provided between the lateral members in an integral manner. The vehicle seat may further include a height adjuster for adjusting a height of the seat face, and the height adjuster may be integrated in the lateral members. Each of the lateral members may have a recess, the shape of which may change during the height adjustment. The height adjuster may include a drive element. The drive element may include a rotor with helical slots. The lateral members may have projections provided which cooperate in a positive-locking manner with the helical slots. During rotation of the rotor, the projections may be moved away from each other or toward each other. Height adjustment of the seat face may be carried out.

Abstract: The invention relates to a hinge door arrester, particularly for vehicle doors, comprised of two hinge parts (2, 4), which are connected by a hinge pin (6) in a manner that permits them to swivel about a rotational axis (8) and between which a detent device (10) is integrated that defines different relative rotating positions. Said detent device (10) is comprised of at least one detent element (12), which is kinematically joined to the first hinge part (2) and which is spring-loaded in a radical working direction that is perpendicular to the rotational axis (8). The detent device is also comprised of a sliding surface (16), which is kinematically joined to the second hinge part (4), is provided essentially in the shape of a sector of a circle, is arranged, with regard to its radius of curvature, coaxial to the rotational axis (8), and which comprises at least one detent position (14) that interacts with the detent element (12).
