The invention relates to an armrest with a support (15) for a vehicle seat (10), the support being movable by a side mechanism (27), relative to a base between a proximal and a distal position and is pivotable by a pivot assembly (28), between a first pivot position and a second pivot position, wherein the side mechanism (27) comprises a first part (16) of the base and a second part (18) on the support (15), wherein the first part (16) is connected to the second part (21) by an articulation (37).

A control arrangement for a drive arrangement of a motor vehicle interior element, the interior element is adjustable and lockable in position by aid of adjustment kinematics, the drive arrangement configured to adjust the interior element with the aid of adjustment kinematics and an interior sensor arrangement for detecting an object, the control arrangement activates the drive in an adjustment routine to adjust the interior element in a rotational motion from an initial angle to a terminal angle. The control arrangement activates the adjustment routine based on sensor data for the object, acquired by means of the interior sensor. The control arrangement includes an interior-element model of geometry of the interior element and the adjustment kinematics and generates a geometric object model based on the sensor data, to determine the terminal angle based on the interior-element model and the object model, adhering to a separation specification.

A user interface for a snow groomer or other tracked vehicle, such as tracked carrier to carry and enable use of work equipment on various terrains, is provided. The user interface may comprise an input device, an output device and a controller. The controller is configured to receive from the input device an indication of a desired snow grooming distance, and the controller is further configured to measure a distance traveled by the snow groomer, and to cause the output device to convey a remaining distance to be traveled by the snow groomer, the remaining distance being the difference between the desired snow grooming distance and the distance traveled by the snow groomer.

A vehicle seat support comprising two rails extending in a longitudinal direction, a central module slidably mounted on the rails and suitable for supporting the vehicle seat, a footrest slidably mounted on the rails in front of the central module and suitable for receiving the feet of an occupant seated on the seat, a first actuation system able to cause the central module to slide along the rails, and a second actuation system able to cause the footrest to slide along the rails independently of the central module.

A motor vehicle seat locking device, in particular a rear seat backrest locking device, equipped with a retaining bracket that is connected to a vehicle body and can move relative thereto, and with a catch, seat-mounted, for the retaining bracket. According to the invention, the retaining bracket is connected to a rocker that can pivot with respect to a vehicle body-mounted base, about an axis that is at a distance from the bracket.

An articulation assembly for a vehicle seat includes a planar engagement surface. An inflatable member is operably coupled to the planar engagement surface. The inflatable member includes a plurality of polyhedral bodies that are configured to be formed via additive manufacturing. Each of the polyhedral bodies has a foldable portion that defines crease lines. A plurality of elastomeric members are disposed on each crease line. A planar base includes a port fluidly coupled to the polyhedral bodies. A manifold is fluidly coupled to the port of the planar base and is configured to translate fluid through the port to the polyhedral bodies.

A defibrillation system may include a cardiac arrest detector detecting whether cardiac arrest of a passenger has occurred in a state of taking a seat of a self-driving vehicle and fastening a seatbelt of the vehicle; a passenger posture detection device detecting a posture of the passenger; a seat driving device changing the posture of the passenger into another posture in which the passenger lies down based on a detection signal of the passenger posture detection device when the cardiac arrest of the passenger occurs; a heart position detector configured to search for a position of a heart of the passenger; a defibrillation robot to perform a CPR method or a method using an AED on the heart of the passenger; and a controller controlling operation of the seat driving device, the heart position detector, and the defibrillation robot based on detection signals of the cardiac arrest detector and the passenger posture detection device.

A hologram switch system of a seat for vehicles generates hologram switch images for adjusting movement of the seat and air-conditioning of the seat in front of a passenger sitting on the seat, and allows the passenger to perform selection and operation in the generated hologram switch images through the position and motion of a passenger's hand, so that the passenger may more intuitively approach and easily operate the switch images and thereby easily operate various seat moving apparatuses and seat air-conditioning apparatuses.

An electric motor for reciprocating an object along a rod having a predetermined length is provided, comprising: a housing; a rotor unit that is mounted to the inside of the housing via a bearing to be rotatable and comprises a rotor shaft, which is axially-coupled to the rod to linearly reciprocate along the rod during rotation, and a plurality of magnets mounted along the circumference direction of the rotor shaft; and a stator unit comprising at least one stator core and a coil, the at least one stator core comprising a yoke portion of a closed loop shape that is built in the housing so as to surround the circumference of the rotor unit, and a plurality of slot portions extending from the yoke portion toward the rotor, and the coil being wound around at least one slot portion among the plurality of slot portions.

A seat control device includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to, based on a selection by an occupant of a vehicle, select a video display area for displaying a video from among a plurality of video display areas provided at the vehicle, determine an adjustment amount corresponding to the determined video display area for a vehicle seat provided in the vehicle, and, via a modulation section, modulate a position and posture of the vehicle seat based on the determined adjustment amount of the vehicle seat.
