Abstract: A vehicle seat is provided. The vehicle seat includes a back frame, and a bracket assembled to the back frame and configured to reduce a load applied to a neck of an occupant by shock of a rear collision when the rear collision occurs in a vehicle, wherein the bracket has an inclined surface that is substantially parallel with a torso line at a normal posture of a seatback.

Abstract: A protection cover structure of a slide detection apparatus for a vehicle seat is provided. The slide detection apparatus is configured to detect a slide state of the vehicle seat with a magnetic detector which is provided to one of a fixed rail and a movable rail configuring a slide rail mechanism of the vehicle seat, and a detectable member provided to the other of the rails. The protection cover structure includes a protection cover provided to the one rail and configured to cover and protect the magnetic detector. The protection cover integrally includes a side cover part which covers a side of the magnetic detector, and a cover part which covers a detection part of the magnetic detector. A tip end portion of the cover part is formed with a lip-shaped contact part which is configured to slidably contact a sidewall surface of the other rail.

Abstract: Provided is a clip structure which can prevent components from falling off an attaching body or an attached body with a simple structure. Further provided is a holding structure for an internal member of a vehicle which can prevent the components from falling off an exterior member or an interior member with a simple structure. A clip assembly (11) includes a first clip having a clip (34) attached to a bracket (25), and a joint (36) as a removable portion connected to the clip 34; and a pin (38) as a second clip connected to the joint (36) and sandwiching a roof head lining (14) between the pin (38) and the joint (36). A holding load (F5) for releasing connection between the clip (34) and the joint (36) is sufficiently small compared to a holding load (F6) for releasing connection between the joint (36) and the pin (38).

Abstract: An occupant protection apparatus includes an airbag provided at a seat portion of a vehicle seat. The airbag is inflatable in such manner as to push up at least a part of a cushion body of the seat portion. At the time of collision of the vehicle, an ECU permits inflation of the airbag if a sensor senses that an occupant is seated on the seat, and inhibits inflation of the airbag if the sensor senses that no occupant is seated on the seat. Therefore, when no occupant is seated on the seat, inflation of the airbag is inhibited at a vehicle collision.
