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.

The present invention relates to a seat belt presenter for a seat belt system in a motor vehicle having a presenter arm with a guide component for a seat belt of the seat belt system arranged on said arm, a drive system driving the presenter arm in an extension movement from a parked position into a presenting position, and a housing on which the presenter arm is guided. The housing is formed from a hollow section with an elongate first chamber, in which the presenter arm is arranged, and the first chamber has a shape determining the course of the extension movement in the direction of the extension movement of the presenter arm.

An airbag device includes a seat frame that forms a skeleton of a vehicle seat on which an occupant of a vehicle sits; an airbag that is disposed on a backrest portion that supports a back of the occupant in the vehicle seat and that is deployed by supply of gas; and a gas generator that is disposed at a seating surface portion that supports buttocks of the occupant in the vehicle seat and that generates gas to be supplied to the airbag; where a part that is a portion of the seat frame and includes at least a portion of a back frame forming a skeleton of the backrest portion, is formed as a flow tube that connects to the airbag to supply gas generated by the gas generator to the airbag.

The invention relates to a vehicle seat, the vehicle seat having a seat part frame and a seat depth adjustment with a seat depth adjustment element, the seat depth adjustment element being displaceable relative to the seat part frame, wherein a first connecting element is provided and designed to connect the seat depth adjustment element to the seat part frame and to guide the seat depth adjustment element relative to the seat part frame.

A method of laser welding a recliner assembly includes positioning a first component of a vehicle seat recliner mechanism with respect to a second component of the vehicle seat recliner mechanism. The method further includes retaining a position of the first component and the second component. Retaining includes forming a plurality of tack welds between the first component and the second component. The method further includes fixing the first component to the second component. Fixing includes forming a finishing weld between the first component and the second component by laser welding the first component to the second component.

A seat mounted in the cabin of a vehicle has side supports for supporting the respective right and left lateral sides of the upper half body of an occupant. The seat also has a seat frame and a side support frame incorporated in the side support on the inner side in the vehicle width direction and secured on the seat frame. A console box is mounted adjacent to the seat, on the inner side of the seat in the vehicle width direction. The side support frame and the console box or the console frame are positioned so as to at least partially overlap each other in a side view.

A ventilated seat, a vehicle including the ventilated seat, and a method of controlling airflow in a vehicle having a ventilated seat are provided. The ventilated seat includes a seat cushion assembly and an air duct configured to interface with a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) module of the vehicle and provide conditioned air from the HVAC module to the seat cushion assembly. The HVAC module of the vehicle further provides conditioned air to an interior cabin of the vehicle through at least one air vent.

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.
