Abstract: A motor vehicle seat may have a seat squab, a back rest, and kinematics for moving the vehicle seat from a use position suitable for conveying people to a non-use position or access position. The access position makes accessing a rear row of seats easier. The seat may be moved by a drive device from the use position to the non-use position, and vice versa. The seat may have a rear foot with a locking device that can be locked with a counter-element for securing in the use position. The seat may also have a protection device arranged in the region of the locking device for detecting an obstacle in a movement path of the rear foot when the vehicle seat is moved from the non-use position to the use position.

Abstract: A vehicle seat (1) has a seat segment (14) with a first seat (11) having a first backrest (21) and a second seat (12) having a second backrest (22) and a seat part (24). The first backrest and the second backrest are pivotable about a pivot axis (A) relative to the seat part. A first fitting (51) and a second fitting (52) connect the first backrest to the seat part. The fittings (51, 52) each have a fitting part fixed to the seat part and a fitting part fixed to the backrest that are pivotable relative to one another. The second backrest is pivotable about the pivot axis (A) via a first rotary bearing point (71) that is a fixed bearing and via a second rotary bearing part (72) that is a floating bearing. The second rotary bearing point includes a rotary bearing sleeve (54) mounted on the first fitting.

Abstract: A device for adjusting the seat inclination of a motor vehicle seat, includes a seat frame and a seat shell, which are connected to each other in an articulated manner by two fastening elements. The fastening elements each extend through a respective accommodating opening on the seat frame and a respective bearing opening on the seat shell. In order to provide a device for adjusting the seat inclination for a motor vehicle seat that can be produced simply and installed fully automatically, has a lower total weight, and has especially high stability, the material of the seat shell has a greater material thickness in the region of the bearing openings than in the other regions of the seat shell.
