Patent number: 6962383Abstract: A vehicle seat 1 includes a seat unit, a lift-up unit and a long-sliding unit. The lift-up unit moves the seat unit between an interior and an exterior of a vehicle via a door opening portion that corresponds to a passenger seat position. The long-sliding unit moves the seat unit between a driver's seat position and the fellow passenger seat position. The lift-up unit moves the seat unit downward when the seat unit is positioned at the driver's seat position, so that the seat unit is located at a suitable position for driving.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2005Date of Patent: November 8, 2005Assignee: Araco Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Tadashi Takenoshita, Yoshirou Suehiro, Tomoyuki Kuroda, Teiji Naruse, Takashi Suzuki

Publication number: 20050218686Abstract: A vehicle seat 1 includes a seat unit 10, a lift-up unit 50 and a long-sliding unit 200. The lift-up unit 50 moves the seat unit 10 between interior and exterior of a vehicle via a door opening portion D2 that corresponds to a passenger seat position. The long-sliding unit 200 moves the seat unit 10 between a driver's seat position and the fellow passenger seat position. The lift-up unit 50 moves the seat unit 10 downward when the seat unit 10 is positioned at the driver's seat position, so that the seat unit 10 is located at a suitable position for driving.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 22, 2005Publication date: October 6, 2005Inventors: Tadashi Takenoshita, Yoshirou Suehiro, Tomoyuki Kuroda, Teiji Naruse, Takashi Suzuki

Patent number: 6572172Abstract: A longitudinal support base 30 is provided with a rotating support base 10 that can be slide in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle. A seat body is placed on the rotating support base 10 via a rotary disc 13 so as to rotate. The longitudinal support base 30 is provided with an intermediate gear 22 that is engaged with a rack 21 extending in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle seat. The seat body 2 side is provided with a pinion gear 24 that is engaged with the intermediate gear 11. The rotary disc 13 is rotated by means of a driving force of an electric motor 41. Thus, when the electric motor 41 is rotated, the seat body 2 rotates and slides in the longitudinal direction.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 1999Date of Patent: June 3, 2003Assignee: Toyota Shatai Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Mineki Ninomiya, Masamitsu Iwatani, Yoshiyuki Miura, Kenji Murabayashi, Tomoyuki Kuroda, Masanori Iwao, Takafumi Hijikata, Yasuo Suga, Takayuki Tajima, Tadashi Takenoshita, Yoshiro Suehiro

Patent number: 6557919Abstract: With respect to a rotating seat for a vehicle, for example, for the elderly or the handicapped, the known art requires two operations of moving a seat body forward and rotating it to a door opening, and is thus poor in usability. Further, if the seat is positioned to the front such that the seat can be rotated at that position, the space close to occupant's feet is sacrificed. It is, accordingly, an object of the present invention to provide a rotating vehicle seat having excellent usability without sacrificing the space close to occupant's feet. A rotating vehicle seat of the present invention includes a rotating support base 10 for rotatably supporting a seat body 2, a longitudinal support base for supporting and moving the rotating support base in a longitudinal direction of a vehicle, and a coupling arrangement means 6, 38 disposed between the seat body 2 and the longitudinal support base for coupling the rotational movement and the longitudinal movement of the seat body.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2001Date of Patent: May 6, 2003Assignee: Toyota Shatai Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yasuo Suga, Masamitsu Iwatani, Takafumi Hijikata, Tadashi Takenoshita, Yoshiyuki Miura, Mineki Tanaka

Patent number: 6543848Abstract: A rotating vehicle seat allows space close to an occupant's feet to be used efficiently. The rotating seat has a seat body 2 supported by a rotary disc 13. The rotary disc 13 is mounted at a position that is displaced to a door opening side with respect to a center HP of a seat cushion. A pinion gear 6, an intermediate gear 36 and a rack 38 engage each other so that the rotational movement and the longitudinal movement of the seat body 2 are coupled to each other.Type: GrantFiled: October 10, 2000Date of Patent: April 8, 2003Assignee: Toyota Shatai Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yasuo Suga, Masamitsu Iwatani, Hiroyuki Kagei, Takafumi Hijikata, Tadashi Takenoshita, Yoshiro Suehiro, Chikanori Fujita, Shoichi Uda, Yoshiyuki Miura, Kenji Murabayashi, Masanori Iwao
