  • Publication number: 20240109459
    Abstract: A seat cushion is formed integrally by a body pad portion, an outer peripheral edge portion, and a connection portion. The outer peripheral edge portion protrudes toward a floor panel from the outer peripheral edge portion in a plan view and contacts a floor panel at its lower face. The connection portion is provided to protrude toward the floor panel at a portion which is separated from a front-side part of the outer peripheral edge portion and a rear-side part of the outer peripheral edge portion, respectively. The connection portion connects the floor panel and the body pad portion. A portion between the front-side part and the rear-side part of the outer peripheral edge portion in a vehicle longitudinal direction is a separation portion where a lower face of the seat cushion faces an upper face of the floor panel with a gap.

  • Patent number: 9783087
    Abstract: A headrest which supports a head portion of a passenger in a vehicle rear collision is attached to an upper portion of a frame of a seatback. A blower to perform ventilation for a passenger's back is arranged at the upper portion of the frame at a position below the headrest. The blower is held at the frame via attaching members, for example. When receiving a large rearward-load from the passenger in the vehicle rear collision, the blower moves rearward relatively to the frame and the headrest according to a rearward move (a rearward swing around an upper frame, particularly) of the attaching member and the like.

  • Patent number: 5547158
    Abstract: A seating level adjusting device includes an elevating mechanism attached on a frame of the vehicle seat for raising or lowering the seating level, and a handle assembly separatably connected with the elevating mechanism for manipulating the elevating mechanism. The handle assembly carries an actuating mechanism for actuating the elevating mechanism, a locking mechanism for locking the actuating mechanism, and a releasing mechanism for releasing the lock state of the actuating mechanism. When repairing one of the actuating, locking, and releasing mechanisms, the handle assembly is separated from the elevating mechanism. The repair can be easily accomplished.

  • Patent number: 4938047
    Abstract: A bend arm is mounted on a base frame for turning movement. The bend arm is provided with a bend die and a work is clamped to the bend die by a clamp die. A drive arm is also mounted on the base frame for turning movement and is connected to the bend arm by a link. The bend arm is turned by the turn of the drive arm via the link and the work is bent by the turn of the bend arm on the model of the bend die. The distance from the center of turn of the drive arm to the connection point of the link to the drive arm is longer than that from the center of turn of the bend arm to the connection point of the link to the bend arm. Furthermore, the former distance is longer than the distance from the center of turn of the bend arm to the center of turn of the drive arm. Thus, the bend arm can be turned beyond 180.degree. by the turn of the drive arm by an angle less than 180.degree..
