  • Publication number: 20230049867
    Abstract: Provided is a device for adjusting a seat of a vehicle. The device integrates a fold-and-dive function in addition to a walk-in function of a seat and also enables a forward or backward sliding movement function of the seat to be linked with other functions, so that the walk-in operation that tilts second-row seats or third-row seats to a forward direction for securing an aisle for a passenger to get in or out of the vehicle may be easily performed. Further, the walk-in operation state may be robustly maintained since the seat is robustly fixed after the walk-in operation is performed, and the device contributing to a standardization in which various functions in addition to the walk-in function are integrated with each other and contributing to functional expandability may be provided.

  • Publication number: 20220332222
    Abstract: Disclosed is a locking device for a walk-in seat of a vehicle capable of stably maintaining the locked state of the walk-in seat prior to a walk-in operation. An object of the present invention is to provide a locking device for a walk-in seat of a vehicle capable of stably maintaining the locked state of the walk-in seat prior to a walk-in operation (that is, the locked state of a drive plate for the walk-in operation of the seat) even if the engagement between the drive plate and a pawl is released due to deformation caused by a torsional load applied to a connection frame of the seat by additionally providing a separate component configured to prevent the drive plate from being rotated in an unlocking direction when a load is applied to a seat belt buckle.
