Abstract: A commercial vehicle with a cargo space includes a detection unit for detecting movement of a wheel suspension and/or an inertial measuring unit for detecting movements of a sprung mass of the vehicle in order to evaluate a loading state of cargo in the cargo space. To provide improved cargo capacity, improved user-friendliness, and improved driving behavior, the commercial vehicle has an optical signaling unit arranged in the cargo space which is electrically activatable using an evaluation electronics unit, wherein the evaluation electronics unit is configured to activate the signaling unit on the basis of signals of the detection unit and/or the inertial measuring unit which are generated upon placement of the cargo on a cargo surface of the cargo space in such a way that an optimum position of the cargo surface is displayable by means of the signaling unit.

Abstract: An interior trim for a passenger compartment of a vehicle includes a first carrier, which has an inner side, facing the passenger compartment, and an outer side, directed away from the passenger compartment. A heating element is arranged on the outer side. It is proposed to arrange a matrix and a filler in the first carrier. The filler has a thermal conductivity that is higher than that of the matrix so that heat generated by the heating element can be directed through the filler into the passenger compartment.

Abstract: A fastening device for an adjustable display accessory in the region of the dashboard of a motor vehicle is provided. The accessory is movable into different positions relative to an operator. The fastening device pivots by a driver into an optimal position and when not in use is able to be pivoted back into a neutral position in which the driver is not disturbed, wherein at the same time the accessory may be lockable in its position such that in it maintains its set position despite vibrations. A pivoting arm which is rotatable about a fixed first axis is provided and a holder for the accessory is arranged on the free end of the pivoting arm. The holder is rotatable about a second axis provided on the pivoting arm and both the pivoting arm and the holder are lockable on their axes in a plurality of latched positions.

Abstract: A headrest for a vehicle seat includes a center part and at least one side wing disposed on a side of the center part in a movable manner between a neutral position and a range of comfort positions. A retaining strut is coupled to the side wing at a living hinge disposed on a first end of the retaining strut. The retaining strut is further coupled to the center part in a longitudinally movable manner at a second end of the retaining strut.

Abstract: A headrest for a vehicle seat includes a padded part, carrying bars for securing the padded part to a backrest of the vehicle seat, and a mechanism for turning down the padded part about two swivel axes and from an in-use position into an out-of-use position. The mechanism comprises a cross member connecting the carrying bars to one another and forming the swivel axis of the padded part. Furthermore, the carrying bars and also the cross member run outside the padded part and the padded part is suspended on the cross member from the outside in a swiveling movable manner via the retaining strut and the double clip.
