  • Patent number: 9446697
    Abstract: A vehicle seat is provided in which a projecting part is integrally provided in a middle part of a lower frame of a seat back frame forming a framework of a seat back and is extending further forward and upward than the lower frame. This enables the impact absorption when the seat back receives an impact load from the rear to be enhanced, while stabilizing the supporting force applied to the occupant by the seat back for supporting the occupant's back.

  • Patent number: 9421890
    Abstract: A vehicle seat is provided in which a pressure-receiving member receiving the back of an occupant through an upper linking wire is supported on a seat back frame of a seat back, and an abutment member is provided on the pressure-receiving member, the abutment member restricting an amount of flexing of the pressure-receiving member by abutting against the upper linking wire when the amount of flexing exceeds a predetermined amount. This enables the amount of flexing of the pressure-receiving member for supporting the back of the occupant to be restricted, thereby stabilizing the support of the occupant.

  • Patent number: 6817660
    Abstract: A vehicle rear structure is provided in which, when a seatback is tilted forward and folded, an upper surface of the seatback and a rear floor positioned behind the seat form a flat surface. A bridge plate is extended between the folded seatback and the rear floor. The bridge plate is rotatably attached to the front edge of the rear floor. A portion for lifting a front edge portion of the bridge plate in conjunction with the uprising movement of the seatback is provided at the rear of the seatback to prevent the seatback from getting stuck on the front edge portion of the bridge plate.
