A car seat includes an actuator capable of changing an orientation of a rest surface of a seat back laterally by turning and moving at least a side portion frame that is part of the car seat frontward and rearward, and a controller configured to exercise control over the actuator. The controller includes a run-time posture support unit configured to execute a run-time posture support control under which when a car makes a turn, the actuator is regulated to cause the rest surface of the seat back to be oriented in a direction of the turn. The run-time posture support unit is configured to regulate the actuator in accordance with a placement of the seat in the car, when the run-time posture support unit executes the run-time posture support control.

A motion sickness control system for a vehicle includes a vibrator. The motion sickness control system includes a sensor configured to measure vibration of the vehicle. The motion sickness control system includes a computer having a processor and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor to actuate the vibrator at a target frequency based on the measured vibration of the vehicle. The target frequency attenuates the measured vibration of the vehicle.

A vehicle assembly includes a vehicle body and a vehicle seat. The vehicle body includes a frame backing member elongated in a length direction of the vehicle seat. The vehicle seat includes a seat base and a seat back connected to the seat base. The seat back is connected to the frame backing member. A mounting bracket is connected to an upper portion of a seat back frame. An energy attenuating member positioned in a space between the seat back frame and the frame backing member interconnects the mounting bracket and the frame backing member. During a crash event the energy attenuating member is configured to collapse between the seat back and the frame backing member to absorb kinetic energy in the vehicle seat when the seat back is driven toward the frame backing member.

A back pad assembly for a material handling vehicle is provided that includes a back pad, a framework, and a mounting frame. The back pad includes a center portion, a first side portion, and a second side portion. The first side portion defines a first curved profile, and the second side portion defines a second curved profile. The first curved profile and the second curved profile are arranged on laterally-opposing sides of the center portion. The framework includes a first mounting bar and a second mounting bar. The framework is coupled to the back pad. The first and second mounting bars are adjustably supported by the mounting frame to enable the back pad to be selectively mounted at varying heights along the mounting frame.

A seat part for a vehicle seat may have a support structure which has a tubular frame and a composite component. The tubular frame may have at least one opening on a front side. A threaded sleeve may be arranged and the composite component is arranged on the front side of the tubular frame and is secured to the tubular frame via a screw screwed into the threaded sleeve.

The present disclosure relates to a manufacturing method of a vehicle seatback cover, comprising a lightweight composite manufacturing step of manufacturing a lightweight composite using a reinforcing fiber and a thermoplastic resin fiber, a lightweight composite forming step of forming the lightweight composite into a vehicle seatback cover shape and preparing a vehicle seatback cover material, and a carpet bonding step of bonding the vehicle seatback cover material and a carpet material.

A seat includes a seating portion, a backrest, two pairs of vibrators and a vibration absorbing member, and constitutes a driver's seat of a vehicle. The vibration absorbing member is arranged at a boundary portion between a first region and a second region of the seating portion, and is arranged at an intermediate portion between the pair of vibrators. The vibration absorbing member suppresses vibration of the vibrator from being propagated to the second region and vibration of the vibrator from being propagated to the first region.
