  • Publication number: 20250026248
    Abstract: A seat may have a seat longitudinal adjustment device having two rail pairs. The rail pairs may each have a lower rail and an upper rail. A contacting device is provided at least for electrically connecting a drive unit and a number of seat components to at least one control unit and to an electrical power supply unit. The contacting device may have at least one plug having a number of contact pins and/or contact elements, and a socket having a number of corresponding mating contact elements. When the plug is inserted into the socket, at least the electrical connection is established between the electrical power supply unit and the at least one control unit and the drive unit for the seat longitudinal adjustment device and the seat components. The contacting device may have at least one positioning element and/or one short-circuit element.

  • Publication number: 20250018838
    Abstract: A cable cassette for a seat longitudinal adjustment apparatus may have at least a housing and two rotatably mounted deflecting rollers. One of the deflecting rollers may be held such that it is guided for longitudinal movement in the housing relative to the other, stationary deflecting roller. A first free end of the connecting cable of the cable bundle is held in a fixed position via a first cassette outlet and the connecting cable or the cable bundle is guided and deflected around the movable deflecting roller and led from the movable deflecting roller to the other, stationary deflecting roller and is deflected around said stationary deflecting roller. A second free end of the connecting cable or of the cable bundle is movably mounted. A seat longitudinal adjustment apparatus may have the cable cassette.

  • Patent number: 11958393
    Abstract: A seat assembly for a vehicle seat may have a structural component with multiple reinforcing ribs, a cushion layer, an insert layer which is arranged between the structural component and the cushion layer, at least one component which is secured to the structural component, and at least one securing device. The at least one securing device may secure both the insert part as well as the component to the structural component. A method for assembling such a seat assembly is also described. In one method step, the insert part is secured to the structural component by at least one securing device, and in the same method step or a subsequent method step or a preceding method step the at least one component is secured to the at least one securing device. A vehicle seat have such a seat assembly is also provided.

  • Patent number: 10256841
    Abstract: An encoder encodes digital data, said encoder includes one or more component encoders, one or more interconnections between component encoders, one or more inputs and one or more outputs. The encoder is configured to carry out the following steps: combining internal input bits received via an interconnection and external input bits received via a corresponding input, to assemble a local information word, encoding the local information word such as to generate a local code word, outputting a reduced local code word and handling the same reduced local code word over to the interconnect for forwarding the same reduced local code word to another component encoder or to itself, wherein the encoder is configured to forward on each interconnect the bits of the reduced local code in parallel but with delays that are mutually different for at least a subset of the reduced local code word bits.
