Abstract: In the case of a seat, particularly a vehicle seat having a supporting frame, there is provided a spring system that is fastened at said supporting frame, an upholstered part that rests on said spring system, and a cover that covers said upholstered part, and for achieving a shaping tension of the upholstery, is braced in its border area in the direction of the supporting frame. The cover, in order to achieve a soft surface, is fixed a first time in the transition area from the upholstered part to the spring system, in which case this area receives a bearing capacity created by stiffening means, such as the surrounding frame, the seat shell or the dimensionally stable upholstery material, said bearing capacity being capable of absorbing the preloading forces introduced via the lower cover portion, without repercussion on the area of the upholstered part that is on the side of the seat surface.

Abstract: A vehicle passenger, or the like headrest equipped with an arrangement to secure an end position is disclosed. In order to accommodate removal of the head rest with both hands after the cancelling of a locking effect, a remote control is provided in the form of an operating rod extending approximately in axial direction of a headrest support rod. When the operating rod is operated, the catch is guided into a secured disengaged position which, when the support rod is pushed in again, by the effect of the support rod, is cancelled again so that safety is not sacrificed.

Abstract: A guide means for a support bar of a vertically slidable headrest of which the two guide elements, made of resilient material and inserted mutually superposed at an interval in a guide rail, are in mutual communication by a web in a manner favorable for production and assembly and wherein a median section of the web serves as a further bracing point for the support bar in addition to the two guide elements.

Abstract: A bearing support for a headrest in a motor vehicle which is pivotal within certain limits after overcoming a constantly effective friction force; a bearing socket which is rigidly connected with the lower area of the headrest member has an essentially triangularly shaped cross section and receives a bearing bolt that is being pressed by a wall subject to an elastic prestress against the remaining walls of the bearing socket.
