A vehicle seat assembly, a biasing mechanism, and a method of installing a vehicle seat assembly are provided. A first end region of a torsion spring is for fixed connection to a vehicle frame bracket mount such that the seat back rotates relative to the first end region of the spring about a transverse axis. A second end region of the torsion spring is offset from the transverse axis. A support bracket is connected to the seat back, with the intermediate region of the torsion spring supported for rotation by the support bracket. A block supported by the support bracket and offset from the transverse axis, with the block contacting the second end region of the torsion spring to bias the spring when the seat back is in a first, use position.

The present invention discloses a seat rotation locking mechanism, including a locking mechanism mounted on a rotating disc in a seat rotation mechanism and at least one lockhole disposed on an outer circumference of a fixed disc in the seat rotation mechanism, where the locking mechanism includes: a lock support fixed on the rotating disc; and at least two lock pins horizontally and moveably configured in the lock support, where a first end of the lock pin is of a truncated-cone-shaped structure; and the first end of the lock pin is inserted into the lockhole, to implement zero-clearance locking by using wedging between the truncated-cone-shaped structure of the first end of the lock pin and the lockhole. The present invention eliminates a fit clearance existing after a rotation mechanism is locked, improves a grade of a product, and improves user experience. In an adjustment process, even if an operator releases an adjustment lever, a locking piece and a fixed disc do not generate scraping noise, and service life of the product is prolonged since wearing is eliminated.

A latch device includes a latch engageable with a rod portion of a striker, and is capable of transition to a locked state in which the latch is engaged with the rod portion and to an unlocked state in which the latch is disengaged from the rod portion, and includes a first shaft member that supports the latch in a manner that permits the latch to rotate, and a base member that supports the first shaft member. The base member is a unitary member which includes a first support wall disposed on one side of the latch and configured to support one end of the first shaft member, a second support disposed on an other side of the latch and configured to support an other end of the first shaft member, and a connecting wall that connects the first support wall and the second support wall.

A motor vehicle seat floor slide rail includes a lower slide rail assembly (100), an upper slide rail assembly (200) and a gap elimination mechanism (230, 230′), with a shaft-provided gap elimination cam (231L, 231R), on an upper slide rail longitudinal end, having a rotation center (232a) axis perpendicular to an upper rail longitudinal direction. A locking window face (117L, 117R) has an aluminum slide rail (110) longitudinal gap elimination face (113L, 113R). A rail locked state has a cam face (2311L, 2311R) in contact with the gap elimination face to eliminate a Y and Z direction gap. In a rail unlocked state, a locking mechanism (240) drives the gap elimination cam, such that the cam face loses contact with the gap elimination face. The gap elimination cam moves in linkage with the locking mechanism, reducing sliding friction, and having the advantage of low sliding assistance motive power.

A slide rail for a vehicle seat comprises first and second slide members lockable by a lock which comprises several locking members suitable for entering holes that are part of the first slide member. The lock is mounted on the second slide member so as to provide translational clearance between the lock and the second slide member.

A seat for vehicle includes a seat cushion and a seat back. A seat back frame of the seat back includes a right side frame, a left side frame, a lower frame, and an upper frame. The upper frame includes a first upper frame and a second upper frame, the first upper frame having a cross-sectional shape of a U-shape opening downward, the second upper frame having a cross-sectional shape of a U-shape opening downward, and a closed cross section is configured by vertically overlaying the first upper frame and the second upper frame.

A swivel assembly for a vehicle seating assembly includes a fixed plate defining a first opening. A rotating plate defines a second opening. The rotating plate is positioned substantially parallel to the fixed plate. A gear ring is positioned about a periphery of the first opening. An inner retaining bracket is received by the first and second openings and is coupled with the gear ring. An outer retaining bracket is coupled with the rotating plate and defines a channel. The fixed plate is at least partially received by the channel. A washer is positioned between the fixed plate and the rotating plate. A bearing member includes first and second legs. The first leg is positioned between the rotating plate and the fixed plate. The second leg is positioned between the fixed plate and the inner retaining bracket.

A vehicle seat has a seat bottom, a backrest which is attached to the seat bottom and has a backrest structure, and a headrest attached to the backrest. The headrest has a headrest structure provided with an upholstery cover and inserted by way of at least one support rod in an associated support rod holder of the backrest structure and being locked or lockable there. At least one damping element is provided between the backrest structure and the headrest structure.

An actuation mechanism for a longitudinal adjuster of a vehicle seat may have at least one actuation arm, a trigger lever, and a positioning element which is arranged on the trigger lever and which is pivotally mounted on a free lever end of the trigger lever.
