A seating system for a vehicle includes a first sidewall and a second sidewall. A second sidewall opposes the first sidewall. The first sidewall and the second sidewall at least partially define a cargo space. A first seating assembly is coupled to the first sidewall. A second seating assembly is coupled to the first sidewall. A bench seat is configured to be selectively adjustable between an adjacent support position and a cross support position. The bench seat is coupled to the first seating assembly and the second seating assembly when in the adjacent support position. The bench seat is coupled to the first sidewall and the second sidewall in the cross support position.

A vehicle includes a first seat. A seat base is selectively coupled to the first seat via an engaging member extending from a proximal end of the seat base. The seat base has an attached configuration and a detached configuration. The seat base couples with the first seat and forms a second seat facing away from the first seat in the attached configuration. The seat base is decoupled from the first seat in the detached configuration. A backrest is common to the first and second seats in the attached configuration. A frame structure operably couples the first seat with the vehicle. The frame structure includes a receiving member interfacing with the seat base. The engaging member engages the receiving member to couple the seat base with the backrest.

A vehicle includes a passenger compartment. A wall is positioned within the passenger compartment. A support structure is positioned on the wall. The support structure defines a series of slots. A seating assembly engages at least one of the slots of the series of slots such that the seating assembly is suspended above a floor of the passenger compartment.

The invention relates to a seat arrangement for a means of transport, in particular for a means of passenger transport, wherein the seat arrangement can be arranged on the means of transport by means of a fastening device, wherein the seat arrangement is intended and suitable for providing a sitting position at standing height, wherein the seat arrangement comprises at least one frame element, which is arranged on the fastening device by means of at least one mounting shaft, wherein the at least one mounting shaft is received in at least one receiving device of the fastening device, wherein the at least one receiving device is arranged on a fastening element which is configured as an arm element extending along a height axis.

A method for fabricating custom seat bolsters includes receiving a first image of a user in a first pose and a second image of the user in a second pose. The method further includes generating a 3D body scan model based on at least the first image of the user and the second image of the user. The method further includes determining a design for a set of seat bolsters for the user based on the 3D body scan model. The method further includes providing the set of seat bolsters for the user based on the determined design.

A seat mounting structure for at least one seat in a vehicle having a vehicle structure is provided. The seat mounting structure may have a seat rib cage configured as a universal solitary mounting bracket to which at least one seat can be affixed. The seat rib cage may have a plurality of rib cage elements connected with each other to form the seat rib cage. The seat rib cage may also have a plurality of seat mounting points for mounting the at least one seat to the seat rib cage. The seat rib cage may also have a plurality of vehicle structure mounting points for mounting the seat rib cage to the vehicle structure.
