Abstract: A folding-table arrangement is assigned to a vehicle seat and has tabletop arrangement with at least one tabletop being accommodated in a receiving housing which is arranged laterally next to the vehicle seat. Each tabletop of the tabletop arrangement can be pulled out upwards and folded down into an approximately horizontal in-use position in which the tabletop arrangement is held by the receiving housing by a support. The tabletop arrangement together with its hinge pin which connects it to the receiving housing is guided in a sliding manner between its pulled-out and its pushed-in position in a guide shaft of the receiving housing. The concomitantly moved hinge pin of the tabletop arrangement is fixed on a guide slide which runs in the guide shaft of the receiving housing and, in the in-use position of the tabletop arrangement, is displaced into an upper end position in the guide shaft.

The support is designed as a hollow body which provides a pneumatic pressure accumulator to which a pneumatic pressure source and at least one pneumatic consumer can be connected.

Abstract: The invention relates to a holder (10) for a beverage container, which is provided in the construction of a motor vehicle. The invention proposes that the holder (10) is formed with two extensions (14, 16), which are displaceable from a base position in a housing (12) into a use position extended away from the housing (12). One of the two extensions (14) has a champagne glass holder (28), on which a champagne glass is held in a stabile manner with its foot by means of downwardly pivoting holding-down devices (36).

Abstract: A motor vehicle seat has a base element which can be fastened in the motor vehicle, a seat element which is disposed on the base element, and a backrest element which is disposed on the seat element. The seat can be adjusted between a locked position and an unlocked position. In the locked position, the seat element and the backrest element can be used for normal sitting. In the unlocked position, the seat element and/or the backrest element are adjusted in the vehicle to the front with respect to the driving direction far enough so that a space arranged behind the seat with respect to the driving direction is accessible for loading and unloading. For adjustment between the locked position and the unlocked position, the seat element is swivellably disposed on the base element and/or the backrest element is swivellably disposed on the seat element.

Abstract: A cooling container for vehicles arranged in use laterally next to a seat cushion of a vehicle seat. The cooling container has a cooling compartment accessible from the top through a container opening after a lid is opened, the cooling compartment being sufficient at least for accommodating one commercially available drinks bottle stored lengthways in it, and being of a depth which clearly exceeds the bottle diameter. The cooling compartment is sufficient at least for accommodating a commercially available drinks bottle stored lengthways in it, but is of a depth which is too small to accommodate an upright drinks bottle below the closed lid. Retaining structure is arranged in the cooling compartment of the cooling container in order to secure the drinks bottle below the closed lid in a ready-to-hand storage position in which the drinks bottle extends obliquely upwards with its bottle neck towards an end region of the cooling compartment, which end region is arranged so that the bottle can be readily grasped.

Abstract: A motor vehicle has at least one vehicle occupant seat arranged laterally of a side member. The vehicle occupant seat is arranged on seat rails which extend in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle and are fixedly connected by way of a seat underframe with a vehicle floor. The side member and the seat rail adjoining the side member have mutually assigned safety devices which are arranged at a distance from one another in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle. The safety devices can be brought into an operative connection with one another such that the seat rail and the side member are connected by way of the safety devices during high dynamic stressing of the vehicle occupant seat and/or of the side member.

Abstract: A vehicle seat has a seat frame which is arranged in a vertically adjustable manner above a seat underframe. A backrest part is mounted on the seat frame, and a seat cushion carrying part, for adjusting the seat cushion depth, is displaceably disposed by an end area in two guides. The other end area of the seat cushion carrying part is supported by two additional guides. The additional guides are supported by way of a supporting construction past the seat frame directly on the seat underframe.
