Abstract: A vehicle display system presents a display device in a motor vehicle provided with multiple seating positions and an interior headliner. The vehicle display system comprises a display device, a display device mounting bracket attached to the display device, the mounting bracket having a pair of pivots, each of the pivots being orthogonal to the other, and a plurality of mounting positions provided on the motor vehicle interior headliner. The display device is viewable by any one or any combination of a rearward facing second seating row occupant, a forward facing second seating row occupant, and a forward facing third seating row occupant.

Abstract: A vehicle seating assembly is provided herein. The vehicle seating assembly includes a seatback coupled to a seat-base. A head restraint is connected to the seatback. A display is disposed within the head restraint. A visor is configured to extend over a top portion of the display. The visor may be movable between a stowed position and a deployed position.

Abstract: An inspection station includes a conveyor, an imaging device, and a controller. The conveyor is configured to transfer a vehicle seat into the station. The imaging device is configured to capture three-dimensional data of the vehicle seat while in the station. The controller is programmed to, responsive to a deviation of the three-dimensional data from a baseline model of the seat being greater than a threshold, direct the vehicle seat to a repair station via the conveyor.

Abstract: An electrical connector for use in a vehicle is disclosed. An example electrical connector includes a first member having a face, configured to couple to a second member along a first axis. The electrical connector also includes a screw receiver coupled to the first member proximate the face. The electrical connector further includes a cam lock mechanism coupled to the first member. The cam lock mechanism includes an arm rotatable about a second axis perpendicular to the first axis. The cam lock mechanism also includes a screw coupled to the arm, configured to drive into the screw receiver.

Abstract: An apparatus is for providing seating in a vehicle passenger compartment. A vehicle seat includes a headrest for forming at least a portion of a seating surface of the vehicle seat in a stowed position and a panel for forming the portion of the seating surface in a deployed position of the headrest. The stowed headrest may be positioned in a cavity formed in the seat. The panel may be connected to the headrest, and at least partially sandwiched between an inner surface of the cavity and the headrest in the stowed position.

Abstract: An adjustable vehicle cupholder is provided. The adjustable cupholder may include a console including a recessed portion defining a cupholder and a track extending along a length of the console. The track preferably terminates at the cupholder. The vehicle cupholder may also include a spiraling fitting that has an elongated shape and extends from the track. The spiraling fitting may be configured to spiral from a first diameter to a second smaller diameter as the spiraling fitting moves along the track and within an inner periphery of the cupholder.
